If National and ACT form the next Government, the two immediate policies we will see progressed is Muller throwing open the borders to appease National’s wealthy backers who exploit migrant workers, international students and pimp hyper tourism while ACT’s recent take over by gun fascists will mean repealing the new laws banning machine guns will their bottom line.
So that’s more Virus infection and more machine guns under a hard right Government.
Charming.
We can be collectively angry at Clark for making Blomfield sad and we can be pissed off that there have been mistakes at the border, but please for the love of God understand what is at stake if we allow those frustrations to hand a win to National and ACT.

“Machine guns”?
I used to think you made a lot of sense. But maybe it is just Gell-Mann amnesia
Yeah we don’t want the Nats in power, – look at their last performance for Petes sakes!
Speaking of that , here’s to Bill and his being proud of a low waged economy attracting foreign investment, here’s to Jonky and his tax havens, here’s to Paula and her meths house scams and motels for family’s and the un-payable debts they incurred, here’s to Nick Smith and his empty paddocks housing solutions ( was he thinking 1930’s style tent city’s? ) here’s to Brownlee and the security door barging and the Christchurch fiasco, here’s to our polluted rivers, here’s to the XKEYSCORE software spy programs ( thanks Mr Snowden for the Skype information ) no thanks to Pike River and the ‘turn a blind eye to health and safety issues’ and worm farms being a high risk activity, and the list of stupidity and ruthlessness goes on and on and on and on…
And now wanting to open borders early and rorting our democracy by guaranteeing a party that gets under 5% every election who now is ruled by embittered gun lobbyists.
They say there is a song for every occasion… maybe this will suffice…

David Seymour… “bringing guns to a place near you”.
Yes we can and we should be working towards opening our borders to the many foreign students. But I think we need to clear the backlog of NZers coming home first and foremost. The universities seem to have a reasonable plan however they (the universities) may need to hire some good reputable security to keep their students and us the general public safe. Our current government have said they are working on this policy setting. So if all goes to plan maybe we might see our foreign students arriving in the next few months. This would be fair if we look at the economic benefits to us as a country and we if want to maintain our reputation and even perhaps boost it. I say this because we have let others in for economic benefits.
It is not over dramatising to say that Mr David Seymour, has crossed a line with his encouragement of gun lovers and gun retailers.
Sure, if they have a viable constituency it is better to have them out in the open, rather than hidden in their rural half round sheds and parents basements. A credible 21st century politician however, would not touch this reactionary group with a forty foot pole.
Other than that: bigotry baad, mmkay? 🙂
The choice could not be clearer:
Vote Tax increases – Vote Tax Cuts
Vote Kindness – Vote Cruelty
Vote Health – Vote Wealth
Vote Life – Vote Death
