Onward Luxon’s soldiers

Marching to class war

With the lust for profit

Going on before.

Chris the new ringmaster

- Sponsor Promotion -

Leads against the foe

Forward into battle,

Goes this C.E.O!

 

Onward Luxon’s soldier’s

Marching to class war,

With the lust for profit,

Going on before.

 

At Luxon’s religion

Voters may yet flee

Surely someone’s focused-grouped

His Christianity?

Bottom lips may quiver

When the news is shared

From bible-bashing Tories

The country would be spared.

 

Onward Luxon’s soldier’s

Marching to class war,

With the lust for profit,

Going on before.

 

The Nats were once a party

Inspiring fear and dread

In every street, in every town

They left the Reds for dead.

Now a fractious rabble

Of vicious smears and leaks

An off-putting selection

Of circus clowns and freaks.

 

Onward Luxon’s soldier’s

Marching to class war,

With the lust for profit,

Going on before.

 

Leader follows leader

Factions rise and fall

But the pollsters’ numbers

Hardly change at all.

Weary of the slaughter

Caucus takes a punt

Pins their hopes

just one more time

on one more rich white … man

 

Onward Luxon’s soldier’s

Marching to class war,

With the lust for profit,

Going on before.

 

Gleeful sits Jacinda

Among her happy throng

Struggling to believe that

Her luck could last so long.

Covid won the last fight

Unleashing the Red Tide

Does Luxon prove that Labour

Has God upon its side?

 

Onward Luxon’s soldier’s

Marching to class war,

With the lust for profit,

Going on before.

  1. It was the farcical “Rock Star Economy” aka Class Warfare of the previous National Party Government that created the perfect environment for a Jacinda Ardern to arrive on stage and appeal. How much has National learned since then? Nothing of course but they didn’t exactly have much to choose from.

    Luxon will have considerable appeal to National Party faithful who’ve had zero to get enthusiastic for several years but the rest of NZ see Luxon for what he is. An extremely wealthy white man with absolutely zero in common with the vast majority of Kiwi’s and with very strong religious beliefs at the very time they are needed least in the role of PM.

    Let’s face it, if John Key was a strong supporter of Phil Goff, then Goff would be the next National Party leader. True story.

  2. It will be interesting to see what happens to the ACT vote. They are rivals for the right/white/male vote.

  3. While the woke beat him up about his religion winning no votes what’s so ever, as most people don’t agree with identity politics.

    Meanwhile here’s NZ hospitals are in crisis, our health spend is going towards cronyism, and not doctors, nurses and medical equipment and medicine.

    Lefties need to point out the government’s failings before they lose the next election, so they can stop the rot in time!

    Health system reform: ‘Transition Unit’ to spend $18m on consultants this year
    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/health-system-reform-transition-unit-to-spend-18m-on-consultants-this-year/CE5E2VE5AUAKNUUNTGW7FUN46I/

    “The special government unit established to overhaul the country’s health system will spend $18 million, 69 per cent of its $25.96m budget this year, on contractors and consultants, its director has estimated.

    In addition, the Transition Unit’s head, Stephen McKernan, confirmed the total outlay on contractors and consultants, from the division’s inception in June, 2020 to Oct 11, 2021, was $10.4m.

    The single largest beneficiary of the contractor spending to date is Ernst and Young (EY), where McKernan is a partner.

    The figures were released under the provisions of the Official Information Act.”

    Ernst and Young mostly known as an accounting firm, so not exactly the right fit – sounds like more Lester Levy types at work destroying NZ’s free health system from the inside out, with the government allowing it!

  4. Yes aside from covid and I do thank them for that, labours outcomes are woeful

    Housing worse, more expensive, mental health wtf (btw the Conversion practices bill isn’t going to retain counsellors, some of whom will not be protected under the act from facing threat of up to 5 years in prison)…gangs, violence, anti social state house tenants and poverty.

  5. The appointment of Simon Bridges to #3 and finance is a clear indication that Luxon has no new vision for National and that Jim Bolger’s wise words have gone right over his head.

    • If Bridges is born again, as is claimed, then I suspect he and Nicola will run the Party while Luxon will do the window dressing, because he is out of his depth even at this early stage. Could well be a workable combination….or not?

        • Could be GreenBus. Watching Luxon out and about, he doesn’t seem comfortable and certainly does not look happy. Reminiscent of Muller’s early days as leader. Could be sinking in, that leading a political party is not quite the same as corporation leadership. He will get worn down with the pressure about his personal and religious beliefs and that will be it. Au revior Mr L. Next.

          • Hope you are right!! Pretty stupid move to say Auckland should be under Green traffic light, says it all about what state of affairs NZ would be in a Covid world under Lux Luthor, I guess he think God would smite the unworthy and he and his ilk would be all right jack. Not to mention it’s a Trumpian dog whistle, especially with Omni mutant rapping at the windows and crying at the lock…

          • it’s a Trumpian dog whistle

            Yes, a little trumpian acolyte may be emerging.
            Certainly a loud dogwhistle to the 1%ers of the world by his limo celebrity-style arrival.

  6. The big question is – what portfolio will Luxon give to Judith Collins? Could he bear to lie with the devil?

  7. Watched the Luxy One do the media scramble today.
    Just occasionally, though fleetingly, I saw facial impersonations of two of his predecessors: Rob Muldoon and John Key.
    Seek and ye shall find.
    Bit ominous!
