Can anyone tell me

They are building homes. We have seen 12 units go up next door - social housing, and just up Lake Road there is a village of multiple high rise clones of the ones next to us.

Which is good, so long as people like apartments. Mind you, the views will be stunning from the top floors. For a while.

righty oh then
lets generously say they had built 5000 homes, which they didnt, and five years later still havent.
where are the materials for the other 5000? did they cancel it? just in the first year, pre orders for the following year?
or was it never ordered? never ordered id say, at all.
why not? we needed it for 10,000 houses, short term, long term. 100,000 houses.
we budgeted for it. was mr twyford going to pop down to bunnings for it?

no, they were never going to build those houses.
it was a callous lie to win an election.
which doesnt really bother or impact me, i expect them to lie. but at least own it.

dont treat us like fools with double accounting and dodgy, manipulated numbers as an explanation.

and before we hear 'theyve built more than national', national did not use it as a platform to win an election.
anything they did was a matter of course, not results of flaccid promises.
