@Tim said in NZ Politics:
Will Luxon do anything about this?
I would say no. He is a massive pussy, and John Key wannabe.
I have to agree Tim. I admit to being sucked into voting for Nats , but within a week realised I perhaps made a mistake , voting for them with 'roll over and walk on me' Luxon wasn't what I was voting for. I really am bloody confused who is running things and it seems to be a different one speaking up every week!

Green Party desperately seeking moral high ground….

@Billy-Tell it is astonishing.
The tarnishing of the Green brand over the last few years has been remarkable. This shit doesn't happen in the party of Donald/Fitzsimons. It's just been own goal after own goal, and the pattern of secrecy from the party plays really poorly.
Very hard to claim the moral high ground when the strike rate on dishonesty/potential criminality in the MPs is so high.
What really annoys me is that the Greens should be pushing smart, evidence based outcome focussed policies. I see less and less of that with time.

And yet people still vote for them. They are the real sheeple

Winston is treading into a risky area here.
The elite and their media back discrimination (called diversity or co-governance) now. Going against the trend can be risky
"I'm not backing down one iota. I want everybody in this country no matter whether they're here for 1000 years or here yesterday legally to be treated the same - equally as one people."

That song, along with Cotton eye Joe, were two major musical scourges of my late 1990s

The 90s was probably the best musical era for me…..but also the worst. You’re forgetting Barbie girl, the Macarena, loads of boy bands, Smash Mouth…. but I’ll stop going on before my post gets deleted for going off topic.
I love the fact that Winnie doesn’t give a fuck and his ability to wind people up shows no sign of abating.

MSM are in full flow right now. They are in a froth trying to pillory Seymour, Winnie, Luxon and all of his ministers. No wonder people are turning off

Chumbawamba’s lead guitarist, Boff Whalley: - "Tubthumbing....... is being used by New Zealand's Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters as he barks his divisive, small-minded, bigoted policies during his recent speeches”.
I find it awesome that Chumbawumba's lead guitarist has taken the time and effort to become an expert on NZ politics and its political leaders...
