Act...one man party who seem to live with their head in another world. Labour = too socialist, who will pay for all of their promises and wants? Winston = entertaining to watch but honestly probably not someone who would ever represent us well. Mana = racist rednecks, Maori = only represent a small portion of the nation. United Future = probably my second vote after National.

    I am more interested in why Pants Down Brown is still in office.

    Heh, if JK isn't perfect, he can't be all good then. They're all ratbags.

    As for Brown, there's no recall legislation that enables getting rid of him.

    He wanted James (who by comtempory standards was very inclusive) dead and replaced by a catholic monarch, which would have caused another round of bloody repression. Burning at the stakes, anyone?

    Little is the Union face of a party formed by the working man, but now run by women in sensible shoes.
    He is a ghost from the past, trying to front an organisation that has no idea who or what it stands for.


    Key looks done.
    He's become used to power and arrogant, but much worse he's now accident prone.

    The problem with Labour is that they cant make up their minds whether they stand for neo-liberalism or socialism-lite and either way they go they get chastised as being one or the other.

    Key on the other hand cottoned on that people prefer the friendly car salesman who makes a quick buck, to someone who may work hard and make long lasting decisions.

    They're both socialism-lite, people choose the blue version because they prefer to have a governing party that at least argues with itself in private, and if it's going to have policy written by its mates, they prefer employers and farmers to be doing the writing over the teaching unions and the EPMU.

    The only time either party looks further than the next election is when they're trying to come up with policy that the other lot can't repeal without pain...

    Working for other peoples' families anyone? That wasn't about sensible coherent policy for the country, that was about trying to make the middle classes into Labour-voting beneficiaries.

    Haha...using the "all good" Kiwi colloquialism of course.

    Brown - yes there is, a no confidence vote.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    "No problem" there Brett.

    My understanding is the vote of no confidence failed. Because there is no recall legislation, unlike in the USA for example, Brown can't be fired as Mayor.

    Nothing short of a conviction for a major crime or being declared insane will get rid of him.

    WFF was Labours solution to alleviating the growing levels of child poverty (many of the families whom are actually working ones) and with the housing prices bubble that was occurring under their watch - something was needed.

    Labour should've tackled the housing investment problem when it started cropping its head and WFF would largely not be needed. Instead now, most Middle Class families would be on the bones of their arses without it - which is why Key wont take it way.

    Andrew Little or John Key? - Claytons and Hobson's choice - Tweedledee or Tweedledumer!

    About as different as Matchless and AJS motorcycles were - only far less interesting I.E. http://www.classic-british-motorcycl...torcycles.html

    Nuke the Beehive when parliament's in session! Then hold a new election and shoot all the new candidates in the head - just above the beak, and let it be known that that fate will befall any other arseholes who contest politics for the power trip!

    Then hold new elections............

    When we have a party who actually have the health, wealth and happiness of the population as a whole as a priority, over the wellbeing of a select few, then it may be worthwhile considering who is the better prime minister!

    Until then, Fuck'eml!

    They are both mainly useless fucking scumbags!

    Your plan has holes in it. The radioactive fallout will cleanse the entirety of Wellytown for hundreds of years (not an entirely bad plan really...) meaning that the population will have to leafe for a few generations.
    My suggestion is that we send them all to Westport, to aid the flagging economy down there.



    As for Little Andrew...
