#BHN Luxon's $500k tax free windfall | More super talk | Phillip Morris wins with govt tax cuts

Nicola Willis and Barb Edmonds had discussions around superannuation today where it appeared for a moment they were in agreement...until they weren't. Willis wants the age to increase whereas Edmonds wants it to stay where it is...and both CAN be correct. We'll explain tonight. Chris Bishop and Kieran McAnulty were on Breakfast this morning debating whether it was okay for Christopher Luxon to make around $500,000 in the last two weeks, tax free, by selling two of his investment properties while at the same time saying 'No' to CGT and lowering the Brightline test to enable a no tax take sale. Some might say it's an appearance of a conflict of interest. Associate Health Minister Casey Costello and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon appear to be at odds over whether tobacco giant Philip Morris stands to benefit financially from a tax break for a heated tobacco product the company has a monopoly on. ================================== Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠ Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebook www.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter. @patbrittenden @Chewie_NZ
