I agree that the Treasury forecasts of unemployment and then the recovery are wildly optimistic. Whilst I don't want to get into a discussion about the economy at this point, I cannot, under any scenario, see how Treasury can forecast unemployment to drop to just 5.7 percent in just two years. These numbers are gerrymandered numbers, and New Zealanders will see through this. So New Zealand faces a prolonged and deep period of unemployment, and, yes, we have to face the reality of providing income support to New Zealanders who, through no fault of their own, are unemployed.
