Landlords who threaten to raise rents as a result of the Government's new housing plan are being "disingenuous", an investor says, and they should accept housing as a public good - not a product.

Part of the Government's plan means property investors will no longer be able to offset their interest expenses against their rental income, reducing their tax liability.

The head of spy agency NZSIS says she knows the spies must do better after March 15 when her agency's terror watchlist was focussed solely on Islamist extremism.

Social media users have attacked Jacinda Ardern during a Facebook Live over the Government's latest housing announcement, saying the new plans won't help renters.

On Tuesday, it was announced that the Government would crack down on property investors to help first-home buyers get a foot in the door by assisting with deposits and expanding the property investment tax. As part of the plan, the Government decided to offset tax deduction losses on rental property mortgage interest rates.

Landlords are warning the weapon they'll bring to the Government's war on property investors is higher rents.

But renters can't afford to pay anymore.

When the Sun ejects solar particles into space, how does this affect the Earth and climate? Are clouds affected by these particles?

When we consider the Sun’s influence on Earth and our climate, we tend to think about solar radiation. We are acutely aware of the skin-burning dangers of ultraviolet, or UV, radiation.
