Luxon & Willis aren’t very good are they & we wouldn’t need ‘bandaid’ budgets if National didn’t keep chopping off limbs every time they are in power

Ummmmm. They are not very good are they?

Here’s Nicola Willis’s weird mumblefuck mixed metaphor she endlessly tripped up over in the post-budget coverage…

…what?

Is it a spray and walk away budget or is it a band-aid? Why throw in the trip to Australia?

I feel dinner parties at Nicola’s place would be over egged, have way too much salt and a mix of foods that just never should be together, like peanut-butter and Turkey with spam and kidney bean entrees.

To me, Nicola Willis as Finance spokesperson is a bit like masturbating with a cheese grater, it doesn’t sound like a good idea and gets progressively worse as you go on.

There was a lot of hype about Nicola’s appointment as Finance Spokesperson, but she’s  only there to prop up Luxon’s image with women seeing as he is a Handmaid’s Tale level anti abortionist.

David Seymour is so going to be the Finance Minister.

Let’s move on with Luxon’s latest boofhead fuck up…

Budget 2022: National’s Christopher Luxon would axe property tax, makes wages gaffe

Luxon was also asked a question about comparing growth in the LCI versus CPI.

The acronyms stand for two important measurements in the changing cost of things – LCI is the Labour Cost Index, measuring the cost of work, and the CPI is the Consumers Price Index which measures the changing cost of goods and services in the economy (inflation). It is the main measure of inflation.

The questioner asked Luxon to give his thoughts on LCI versus CPI, because over the longer term the cost of labour had increased more than the cost of goods and services.

The question appeared to stump the moderator Russell Moore, a National Managing Partner at Grant Thornton.

“LCI – local c..?” Moore said.

Luxon was not sure either.

“Sorry, I want to clarify – LCI, what do they mean?” Luxon asked.

“Are they talking about the local cost index,” Moore asked?

“Or are they talking about wages – because there are a couple of acronyms I just want to make sure we’re getting it right,” Luxon said.

…these acronyms mean little to us, but they matter to economists and political leaders. It’s like saying you want to buy a tank of petrol for an EV.

This question follows Luxon telling all media that ‘incomes are only up 3%’, while using the Labour Cost Index as his evidence – the problem is that the LCI doesn’t actually measure incomes.

When he was pushed on this at the post-Budget speech, it turned out that he didn’t even know what the fucking LCI was despite using it as evidence for his wage claims!

He’s fucking hopeless folks and that doesn’t matter, because National aren’t selling his brain power they are selling his self certainty.

Christopher believes in an evangelical prosperity theory where his 7 properties are evidence Jesus loves him and that he’s special.

That’s what National are selling a frightened and uneasy electorate, Christopher’s sense of self certainty.

Christopher is certain God loves him, and he imbues that certainty effortlessly in his 45 second CEO soundbite routine, but beyond that, he has zero intellectual curiosity in anything other than God loving him and allowing him to live his best blessed life.

Christopher cares about the first class passengers and when he wants to be ghetto and working class he talks to the pilots and first class cabin staff.

Christopher considers those who can’t afford to fly as bottom feeders.

Thankfully for National strategists, Christopher’s contempt for the little people doesn’t detract from his certainty, it probably boosts it.

NZers love being bossed around by rich men in suits. It fulfils a lot of suburban fantasies for both bored wives and repressed husbands.

Christopher’s ability to become David Shearer after 45 seconds won’t blunt Christopher’s appeal to frightened and angry voters who hate Jacinda, because Christopher’s certainty is what those voters desperately want and need.

Finally, the whole ‘band-aid budget’ metaphor is funny because we wouldn’t need a bloody band-aid if National didn’t keep chopping off limbs every time they are in power!

Many blokes have walked away from Labour and the Greens and are voting National because they are sick of Jacinda and our ever triggered woke hysterical activists.

There are 2 things everyone flirting with voting National need to recognise right now.

1: His policies will make things far far far worse in this country in terms of housing, inequality and poverty so don’t pretend voting against Jacinda for him makes you radical or edgy, it makes you a fuckwit

2: Luxon is such a boofhead, he’ll let David run rings around him in terms of pushing through crazy ACT Party policy because Luxon isn’t interested in philosophy, he’s interested in God’s love of him being the best he can be. Policy is something the little people do, and Christopher don’t do little people stuff. David Seymour will be able to get everything he wants through.

You vote National, you get ACT Far Right Policy.

If you think shit is bad now, a National/ACT Government will throw the baby, the bathroom, all the fittings, the towels and the toilet out with the bathwater.

Make no mistake, the smart yellow fox will jump over the lazy blue log.

  1. I think the classic from Luxon was his comment that Robertson was out of touch and needed to get out more. The guy that hires a black Mercedes to cross the road, accuses the finance minister of being out of touch!

    He and ( “what you talkin’ about” )Willis both attack the $350 for being both in adequate and inflationary but somehow don’t see their tax cut as being both inadequate ( for the real strugglers) and inflationary? Willis also basically said avoiding three waters would help with inflation. I am not sure but I have some confidence that will not impact the cost of basic foods.

    You are not being honest with yourself if you think the National leadership is any more competent than Labour, if the National leadership genuinely believe what they are saying. At least that weasel David Seymour doesn’t pretend to care very often. That photo is very appropriate. He reminds of Frank in ‘ The Heater’ by the Mutton Birds. Wire and clay must be advising him.

    • Wheel. Luxon’s little more than another arrogant rich male who insults the whole population with goss or photo ops about going to Bunnings or assembling a barbecue to show that he’s an ordinary guy like everybody else.

      He/they assume we’re dumb enough to think that these sort of stunts will impress people but they show how limited they are in thinking this way. The collective brain power of the current Nats is pretty dismal.

      Their failure to recognise or to come up with solutions to basic issues like electricity costs and families living freezing cold is because they simply have no idea what it’s like and therefore they can’t relate to it as a problem, a massive health problem. Ditto all parties about exorbitant food costs and the ongoing struggle to feed a family healthily. They don’t know what it is like, but even if they did, there’s nothing to suggest that
      they care, so long as business reaps profit. That’s it. They’re simple, irresponsible,indolent, and foolish.

      I suggest that people like Christopher Luxon posturing as a practising Christian and ignoring Christianity’s basic teachings is not just a cheap bull-shitter, but a total hypocrite, and as such is as morally repulsive as he looks.

  2. This isn’t funny. Willis resorting to cliches and jargon is appalling, it’s government department floor meeting talk, and devoid of concrete facts or substance. Using mixed metaphors is even worse – she’d not get away with that in upper level secondary school, and I’d be surprised if even National supporters find her nebulous sort of waffling acceptable. People need facts which they can discuss or debate, not meaningless adolescent meanderings.

    If Luxon doesn’t know what acronyms mean, there’s nothing to stop him using the full terminology itself, except himself, and entering into public dialogue without knowing what he’s talking about, is unbelievable. His slap-dash demonising have-nots as “ bottom-feeders” wasn’t just crude and unacceptable, but yet again a grubby little Nat mechanism of trying create social divisiveness, and other political parties need to stop doing this too.

  3. As a former Labour voter this mob are morons who only talk. They have full power and are doing nothing.
    I am voting ACT.

      • I kind of think that Douglas and Prebble weren’t Labour, they were more anti-National.

        • Except that, actually they WERE in Labour, not National, but nice inverted reality revisionism.
          Are you writing the new history curriculum?

          • rewrite history? probably a better idea that i do it rather than you, nice to see that you completely missed the gist of my musing.

      • Bullshit Blaze and other revisionists, they were always right-wing ACT, who infiltrated Labour because Rob Muldoon was in power at the time and Rob was a social, populist opportunist.

    • Maninblack. Why you would vote for a party like Act which is geared towards increasing the gap between the haves and the have-nots, defies rational explanation, unless, of course, you’re one of the have’s, who are interested only in making things better for yourself. All parties should act’ on behalf of the majority, not just a small greedy tribe, and Act doesn’t even pretend to – kids with toys.

    • 1 Of Bradburys fukwits. Me Im viting Green this time. What does that make me? Smart I hope as the Greens are the only ones who havent fuked up the economy yet. Their turn I think.

  4. It’s worse than it looks. Willis is the National intelligence and security person, and she shows little evidence of intelligence herself, just babble. I spoke with one Nat candidate canvassing in a previous election, and I asked him about their policies. He was also unable to give any sort of coherent response, and just mumbled about cleaning up Labour’s messes. He served one term then quit.

  5. Labour and the Greens have to overhaul there defence policies I swear before National Act do. Got it?!!!

  6. National are absolutely uninspiring.

    There’s nothing to suggest they’ve turned a corner or rebuilt after the departure of John Key. They kind of toyed with it under Bridges but imploded. Their caucus seems equally bereft of talent as the other side of the house, none too surprising given the rapid turnover of talentless leaders and on top of that Judith scared the bejesus out of any prospective MP from applying for the job.

    Willis seems well out of her depth and Luxon, when also not appearing devoid of brain cells, just angry and in desperate need of a shoe shine boy to take his frustrations out on. There will be no McGehan Close moment for Christopher, no way is he ever going to soil himself with the riff raff. He sees no need, whatsoever!

    The future for this country under National looks suitably grim, probably spiteful to those already suffering under Labour and totally unimaginative. And that is about the only reason Labour will remain an outsider in the extreme sense of the word, come 2023.

    The upcoming election will come down to who out of the two can appear less shit! And people bothering to get out and vote in such a vacuum of incentives! Or hope.

    • ‘Christopher, no way is he ever going to soil himself with the riff raff. He sees no need, whatsoever!’ true and he never did when he ran Air New Zealand. ( Did you know he used to do that?) Workers never saw him at the coalface.

    • But The Nats betray us everytime they’re in power. Cutting social networks, gutting benefits, making poverty the norm, selling off everything thats not nailed down. And this silly biartch is going to be finance minister? fuk shoot me now.

  8. Lol. Te Reo and Beltway Willis have one target – white females under the age of 30. The balance is already a lock against team left.

    Are they shit – fuck yes. Does it matter – fuck no. Our cousins a ross the ditch are about to vote in literally the more boring, dull, stupid individual as their PM whose wife left him on New Years Eve.

    New Zealand is heading for crime-ridden economic stagflation reminiscent of an African third world country. Beltway arguments won’t sway the turning sheeple. Labour will be flat out having a 3 in their polling come winter.

  9. They must be earning commissions with these speeches as some weird affiliate marketing scheme.

  10. “His policies will make things far far far worse in this country in terms of housing, inequality and poverty so don’t pretend voting against Jacinda for him makes you radical or edgy, it makes you a fuckwit”

    Loved that.

  11. Deflection.

    Your team are useless. This is the worst government in our history.

    Lift your game.

      • @bob and bert … Yep bob, the PALE STALE MALE 4 year olds are out in force again, NACTs with their fake accounts are on all the blogs when they see their leader Key Luxon, and their deputy leader Willis Seymour-in-waiting under attack in a blog.

        Reminds me of Jessee MacKenzie and Bryce Beattie aka Hamish Eggstein and Emiliano Donnarumma, the other National Party Trolls. https://www.1news.co.nz/2022/03/31/two-young-nats-resign-after-female-politicians-trolled-online/

        There’s no way Nicola Willis will be Finance Minister when there’s hundreds of slash and burn NACT policies to implement. Seymour and his robot Luxon, will be the face of NACT’s “fiscal financial saviours ” (FFS for short).

  13. West Auckland house wife’s or house wife’s anywhere decide elections. And they love a smart polite talker in a suit. Tick Luxton/ Willis.
