Quote of the day:
Rt Hon John Key: Is it true that the recommendations for savings that Treasury brought to the Minister were all policies that were implemented by the Labour Government, and does that speak volumes about what Treasury thinks of Labour’s economic management?
Hon BILL ENGLISH: Well, Treasury maybe has a somewhat nuanced view of Labour’s economic management, but the public has a very clear view of it, which is that it is reckless, and they do not want a bar of it.
It was a good question and an even better answer.
