A great result for Chloe Swarbrick. It wouldn't surprise me if we saw her as Prime Minister one day.

The two qanon parties are now well aware that facebook world is not the real world. Dickhead conspiracy theorists.
Nationals leadership team and new hope results.
Even when they won the electorate they still lost the party vote.
If national wants to succeed hanging onto the same people like Colins and Brownlee isn't going to help them
Not only that assuming Luxton replaces them.
What message does that send when the best person to lead National has zero parliamentary experience?
What does that say about all the other current MP's in National.
if Luxton's going to be the leader, would you want 3 former leaders in the background.
Well, a prediction made before COVID, I at least got that NZFirst would be out for betraying their Voterbase, ACT got a lot more than just a few seats, their best result ever.
Congratulations must be had for Jacinda, as much as I despise her and her Party, they won fair and square this time around and with a majority under MMP (first time ever)
I personally am not thrilled with the election result, but that is democracy, the next 3 years of crowing will be insufferable, but that's for me to deal with.
I suspect that there will be consequences and people will eventually realise that a Labour solo government will look and feel very similar to a Labour/Greens government.
And for National... when you fail to be conservative and you fail to get your house in order, the NZ Public let you know exactly what they think.
Physics; Thou art a cruel, heartless Bitch-of-a-Mistress
With half nation on welfare now after covid joblosses the result is no surprise really, no one bites the hand that feeds them.
The greens are becoming irrelevant with labour very green tinted and the dope referendum taking care of the other half of voter base.
As Demon said Winston is toast...
ACT got all the gun owners and also people who are sick of pc culture. Didn’t vote for him but had chance encounter with David around time he was talking right to free speech after the chch thing.
One few people who speaks his mind publicly.
No excuse now for Labour to not deliver on their promises although I didn’t hear many this time round. Perhaps they will just try catch up on all the targets they failed to deliver from 2017...

Well Husi came in with graphs and shit but jesus man, it's not hard to fact check your complete delusion. Are you like Trump? Just spout any old idea that pops in your head and decide it must be true.
Cheer up man, it's not as doom and gloom as you have convinced yourself.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
People, presumably not Labour supporters, love to moan about our economy. Maybe they don't read much overseas news but most, if not all, countries are suffering from the COVID hit to their economy. The IMF is telling nations to borrow in order to stimulate their economies and to take advantage of the current low interest rates.
The alternative is to act like the US which is doing a fine impression of a rabbit caught in headlights.
There is a grey blur, and a green blur. I try to stay on the grey one. - Joey Dunlop
NZ going to go through stuff pretty serious in the near future as we are very reliant on tourism which isn't going to happen due to whats going on in the rest of the world.
hopefully, with less green influence some of the more silly potential environmental rules will not be implemented
rules such as not plugging crop paddocks and having crop paddocks back into grass before OCT are not [practically workable under all regions.
Some people need to realise people crop and standoff cattle to avoid damaging pasture on the entire farm and so the stock have something to eat later.
No farming system is closer to nature, than NZ grasslands arable farming systems.We are the world's best. its our only competitive advantage other than a mild climate
The issue is more to do with urbanite perception rather the rural reality.
A farewell poem for ... Jami-Lee Ross
New Zealand's semi-official poet laureate Victor Billot pens topical verse every Sunday.
Today: the undearly departed Jami-Lee Ross.
Non, je ne regrette rien
You are out Jami! Out of the loop.
Out of Botany. Out of National. Deep in the poop.
You sold out. You shacked up with that dingbat TK.
You thought this plandemic was a hand you could play.
Peddling misinformation to vulnerable peeps!
You’ve dug a big hole, several miles deep.
It’s getting hot in here. The lights blaze on down.
This annoying woman keeps telling you you’re a clown.
You reply in defence, I asked the hard questions, as you do!
Let me tell you about my expertise on clown flu.
That don’t cut the mustard, Jami old chap.
You are trampled over, quite rudely, in this ghastly trap.
Smoking ruins all around suggest you called it wrong.
Non, je ne regrette rien, may be your swansong.
Poor Jami. Your prognosis is dim it seems –
but you need not fear of Covid-19.
It is on national TV you suffered plenty:
the brutal ravages of Tova-20.
"With half nation on welfare" != Number of people unemployed... jesus man, it's not hard to fact check your complete delusion. Are you like Trump? Just spout any old idea that pops in your head and decide it must be true.
Cheer up man, it's not as doom and gloom as you have convinced yourself, it's worse.
I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!

You really should stand for parliament, You know if your ideas are any good you would romp in..............
If they are truly shit, I expect you would get about 100 votes.

Winston.
Say what you will, but he did have a levelling influence (on both parties) of utter madness.
Stopping the Dominion Rd tram project, for one instance.
Now we have a Foreign Minister who will stand out at international meetings, not only because of her lunatic ideals, but also from a facial tatoo.
Cuturally appropriate within NZ, but will be denigrated overseas. It will be interesting to see how this one plays out over time...
