The proper infrastructure graph

I blogged on the dodgy graph the PM was using to try and fool people into thinking Labour was spending way more on infrastructure than National. It included stuff such as contributions to the Super Fund to purchase foreign shares, which is not what most people would regard as infrastructure,

The 2017 Budget had a proper graph on infrastructure spending. Here it is.

So National in 2017 passed a Budget that was forecasting (which means Ministers have agreed to it) over $40 billion of infrastructure spending.

So when Labour claims their $12 billion package (over many years) is the biggest ever, well again so much for the claim they will run a truthful campaign.
