I wonder where John Key intends for all these Solo Mothers to work when unemployment is tipped to increase to 6% next year? Becuase if we look at the FACTS the way Christine Todd todays in the Herald column , the FACTS mind you, not the talkback rhetoric, not the 'breeding for business' that John Key labelled those on the DPB as, the FACTS are very interesting.
