No national fan but this might be the only decent ideas to come out of this party imo. Not enough for me to vote for them but man I wish labour would stop letting Auckland and Otago bullshit their way through securing their duopoly at the expense of our countries medical system.

Of course, the plan to fund a new medical school is sketchy at best. Medicine is obviously underfunded already, perhaps I’d hear an argument that the money would be better spent increasing wages for our existing doctors. That said, I’m of the opinion a new medical school couldn’t hurt us.

    This is a good point, residency capacity would have to be increased to accommodate more medical students.
