Lindsay Mitchell has been researching and commenting on welfare since 2001. Many of her articles have been published in mainstream media and she has appeared on radio,tv and before select committees discussing issues relating to welfare. Lindsay is also an artist who works under commission and exhibits at Wellington, New Zealand, galleries.

 A poster at The BFD put up this comment and 1930s pictorial:

“I wonder if in election 2023 we will see back to the future advertising?”

1930’s Labour housing ad.

Come 1943 and National was counteracting with this:

1943 National pre election housing ad.

I wonder if in another 70 to 80 years – a lifetime – New Zealand will still be yo-yo-ing between the two?
