GST increase stop people spending – great idea for economic recovery. People no more spending, some people no more job, so they no more spend, some people, no more business – no problem get another job get another business – no problem for me, no problem for you.

No it likely wouldn't..
Any less than being the ACT party with 501 members and mega-rich funders,
Just saw Dr Brash standing on a conrer in his summer casual gear - really should have had his sleeves and trousers legs rolled up, woolen vest and hanky on his head with all four corners tied. a bit like this:
