The Sunday Star-Times journalist who wrote the story on superannuation at the weekend should have looked up the New Zealand Superannuation Act before writing her article. She could have then avoided making the mistakes she made.

We have just spoken at a GreyPower Superannuation Forum to outline what New Zealand First will do for seniors. We made five commitments:

1. Increase the rate of New Zealand Superannuation.

2. Subsidise winter power bills.

3. Extend the SuperGold Card to include more discounts on more items that make up the cost of living.

4. Make our communities safer.

They are clearly worried about the role New Zealand First will play after the election. How else to explain the recent systematic campaign of hysterical allegations against myself and the party?
