    The media appear to have decided they can create news to write about by governmental change - just watch as they promote the Southern tooth-fish to prominence!

    Jacinda Ardern is the new saviour for the NZ media - watch this space! And at the end of the day - nothing will change except change it's self.

    If you're all that bothered, of course.

    I mean, I can totally understand if you'd rather not contribute, I like to live my own life too. And I totally get that MMP is the complete opposite to what it was proposed to be: proportional voting.

    But you don't get to whine like a bitch and do fuck all constructive about it without looking like you belong in a caravan, with a goat.
    I wasn't whining. Just explaining my reasons for not voting.

    I have accepted the futility, and I jog on quite happily in the knowledge that most people just think I'm a dick wasting a perceived power in the running of the country.

    but by voting at all, you're consenting/agreeing to participate in the system and ergo can't complain at all about the outcome, being that you're not ignorant of how it works (or doesn't)

    You do the same by not voting (minus the clause about not being ignorant).

    no. i have full complaining rights. because i know and comprehend that voting only encourages politicians. and the system is so fucking flawed i just refuse to participate.
    ergo the collective "they" (whatever colour shirt they wear) are not representative of me. ergo not able to "govern" me

    They get their mandate whether you vote or not. They govern you whether you vote or not. To suggest otherwise is to show your lack of comprehension.

    Just which part are you disagreeing with? Cos at the moment it looks as if you don't like the system, but lack the comprehension to discuss its workings...

    I would vote national, except their leaders are smug sanctimonious pricks and their social policies are about a decade out of date.

    I would vote Labour, except their leaders have had all the rigidity of a wet bus ticket about them and their Fiscal policies are flights of fancy

    Voting for anyone else is a vote for National or Labour (in reality).

    So, in reality it's a choice between:

    Not voting should be encouraged because generally the non voters will be labour,left wing leaning,non productive people and that will help keep the status quo which seems to be working fine.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........
