    For the past two years it has been next to impossible to find anyone who would claim to have voted for the Looney Labourite Sect.

    All of a sudden there seems to be an abundance of them around here.

    Most ordinary people will be worse off under National. Not that they'd dare admit it though, in the "how fast can we get rid of Helen" frenzy......

    Labour have outstayed their welcome and have "3 term arrogance", National are as untrustworthy as any neo-con organisation around, NZ First will hopefully go down with Winnie, The Greens are seen as too extreme by a lot of people, ACT are like National only worse.......I'd say the voting public is shafted!

    There are many times more stupid people in New Zealand than there are "thinking" people, so on this basis I predict:

    Government: Any old mix with, Labour, of Anderton, Winston first, Greens, Dunn, or Maori. Take your pick.

    Opposition: National and any rejects from above mixture.

    Missing in action: Rodney Hide and ACT.

    Casualties: Democracy and freedom of the individual.

    Consequences: Record numbers of people leaving the country over the next three years.

    Largest group to benefit: Criminals and lawyers.

    Helen is so honest and Labour has done so much and "you can't trust Key", I know this because Helen has just told me so today!

    I am so happy for my grandchildren and their future in this our "freeland". Highly sceptical, John.

    Crikey hope not. I think Labour won't get enough seats.

    Missing in action: Rodney Hide and ACT.
    Yes sadly you could be right although Hide is an effective elortorate MP which might save ACT.


    Consequences:
    Record numbers of people leaving the country over the next three years.
    Yep..sigh. I'd join them but career, children, ano-domini yadda yadda.....

    Criminals and lawyers.
    So, its not all bad then

    I read ACT and Libertarian policy.
    Being a fairly new import to NZ, why does Lib not feature?
    What is the downside on voting ACT?

    None whatsoever.
    A sensible vote, rather than wasting it on "single issue" parties like the cannabis party...
    Also, you get to annoy a local KB redneck.

    I'm going to use all of my six votes on ACT this year!!!

    Are you talking of 3 x local and 3 x Parliament votes?

    I think Rodders will be back , National won't try too hard in Epsom & the locals may well keep him in, as Ohariu do with Peter Dunne
    I just hope like hell we finally see the back of Luigi but he only needs the Nannas for his 5 %

    I'm not sure why the Libertarians don't get much traction - maybe not enough journalists are sympathetic to their ideas.

    ACT - totally polarise people and are viewed as BIG BUSINESS = CAPITALISTS = BAD go-and-sit-in-the-corner types, by average Kiwis. The same Kiwis who want to sell their cars for more than they paid for them, expect their houses to double in value, and their employers to up their pay whether business is good or not.

    The standard of political and economic debate in NZ is at kindergarten level. Ixion excepted.

    Any idea why this Big Bad Business view or do we just have too many brainless people left in Kiwiland?

    The thickening end of the wedge started by: Make NZ unatractive for productive people. They all either stop being productive or fuck off to do it somewhere else.
