I don’t believe for one second that the vast majority of Kiwis have any true comprehension of just how radical a National/ACT Government would truly be.
The quick yellow fox will jump all over the lazy blue log and David Seymour will get all his crazy policy passed without Luxon caring.
- Māori going to the Waitangi Tribunal over cancellation of 3 waters: The moment the National/ACT Government scrap 3 Waters, Māoridom will go straight back to the Waitangi Tribunal, win the Court Case and force Luxon into his own Helen Clark moment and be forced to pass law to simply confiscate the water. This will cause an enormous eruption of violent protest.
- Mass immigration: National will simply implement John Key’s pump and dump policy of open door immigration to inflate growth rates while causing enormous stress on the groaning underfunded infrastructure and send rents soaring. This will cause enormous social dislocation and a rise in race relation tensions.
- Expansion of Oranga Tamariki Big Data Experiment: National created the Oranga Tamariki Frankenstein and wants more welfare decided by algorithm as a means to de-invest welfare. Luxon has already championed this model.
- Mass Dairy intensification: It’s all National have as an economic policy.
- Mass Property Speculation: They will remove any of the bare tinkering Labour did and help the speculators spin prices higher.
- Mutilation of the State: ACT are serious about wanting to amputate the Ministry for Women, Youth, Māori, Pacific People and Ethnic Communities while slashing the Human Rights Commission. The resulting Public Service Strikes will gridlock Wellington. If there’s one thing the Public Service can do well, it is protesting for their own interests.
- War on Crime: Expect the paramilitary police expansion to occur quickly with a whole dump of new civil liberty breaching powers to supposedly keep us safe but will almost immediately be abused as they increasingly get used on the protesting Left.
- Prison riot and explosion in numbers: The war on crime will see far more in prison and National prefers puritan counter productive prisons so expect them to be crammed full and explode in a seething chain reaction of prison riots once National grant Corrections new powers to beat prisoners with. Corrections are very corrupt and once they gain new powers to bash prisoners with, they’ll be some prisoner who gets beaten within an inch of his life which that will trigger prison riots.
- Rise of more Mass Surveillance & Political violence: The protests such a radical agenda creates will demand the State turn its attention back on the Left while National supporters clutch their pearls appalled at the aggression the Left are protesting with and rally around Luxon rather than criticise the policy. They will call on Luxon to spy on the radical lefties.
- Higher Government Debt: Luxon is no free marketeer, he believes he has 7 properties because Jesus loves him, if debt goes up to pay for the extra prisons, extra Police, extra dairy intensification, extra welfare experiments, extra fake growth, then so be it, he doesn’t care. Oh David Seymour will hate it, but he’ll be so fat and full on his amputation of 6 State agencies that he’ll only be able to mount a burp as a protest.
We have lived through a political period of time since MMP that has managed to dilute and temper the idealogical extremes of Left/Right politics in NZ. The need to compromise and pull punches is fundamental to the MMP dynamic HOWEVER that completely gets thrown out the window if there is no political centre left.
The political centre has been hollowed out so much under MMP that Labour and National are almost indistinguishable in their acquiescence to neoliberal mantra.
The far left and far right have enormous pent up political tension that will rupture once Labour or National are dependent on their numbers for a majority.
In these highly polarised times that has the potential to create an outcome that is hated regardless of which side wins.

Target the prisons, release the fighters, take the ‘hive.
When we are in recession do you believe the Sheeple will care about the Wellington bureaucracy.
Most of what you are saying is spot on outside of the major debt increase – this government’s economic mismanagement has put any significant debt expansion on the backburner.
Most will welcome these changes given next year we will be in an economic state of stagflation.
You watch the brain drain then Frankie. Our society will consist of the brain dead commentators on the granny, Kiwiblog and stuff, the poor who can’t get away but who will be expected to pick up your rubbish at wages that can’t feed them and their families, to fix your roads so you can flash past them in your Lexus, but that’s ok because they’re only mud people who should have taken responsibility for themselves. Frank, you and Krauty and Farrar and the rest of your ilk ought to look at history, particularly the French Revolution and it’s causes and investigate the sales of knitting needles.
Ummmm the brain drain started when your ‘Glorious Leader’ opened the borders a couple of months ago. Air All Blacks Taniwha can’t keep up with the demand.
Don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story though.
That all sounds like a lot of very hard work! I’m not sure National have the stomach for that and I hope the historic effect of MMP remains. Please God. I also think the election will be much closer than current poles indicate and Labour still has a good chance of remaining in power.
I agree with you Peter .I am afraid in the next budgets Labour will swing voters back to them.The Maori Party is likely to go with Labour which will be so bad for the country as they will get more perks and this will lead to more unhappy people and cause race problems. What the blog sees as problems I see as fixes of a country that is out of control .
Trevor you bought race into it… Meng Foon was right, hardy surprising the other pomme agreed with you…

“ get more perks” our forbears stole their fucking lands. But that’s ok as long as they don’t try to get it back.
Brilliant rebuttal. Those of us born here understand this kiwijoker, some immigrants, in my experience, struggle to learn about our Maori culture.
US style healthcare and slashing of wages.
You forgot to mention that a National/ACT junta will also really, really, really piss off the woke left.
That in itself makes all the shitty actions of NatAct worth putting up with…
Woke failure vs elite failure = The poor are fucked either way.
The “woke left” are the only ones standing between us and those who want to impose a white supremacist Christian theocracy, where being LBGT, having an abortion, wanting to learn evolution or anything that goes against the Bible is banned.
@milsy
“wanting to learn evolution”
Like evolution of a sexually reproducing species?, if you like science why do you support woke relativism and standpoint epistemology which denies the possibility of an objective reality or replacing scientific knowledge with satisfying myths etc? As for banning LBGT, the woke are already doing that since they redefined homosexuality as same gender (not same sex) attraction and told lesbians to suck d*ck.
I do enjoy your scatter gun rants but you don’t really understand the “woke left”. btw I’m atheist, pro-choice, LGBT and my partner is trans, so please be more creative in tenuous association making if you’d like to angry-teen-rant back at me.
J S Bark promotes living on the streets and in cars, arise Sir Christopher.
Sincerely hope we also get a deep cleansing of the public service.
Yeah, get rid of all the public services who provide UNIVERSAL SERVICES for ALL NEW ZEALANDERS and replace them with churches who want to impose the bible and businesses that only care about profits.
The institution Luxon attends is nothing that a Christian- from Jesus Christ to Martin Luther- would recognize as a Christian church.
“businesses that only care about profits.”
I’d like to point out that Millsy will shortly comment a preference for mega-corporate wannabe landlord Blackrock over “mum and dad” operations.
Let’s all turn public services into private services, there, everything fixed.
Even Luxon wouldn’t sell us out to Blackrock.
funniest thing i have read all day
I would take Blackrock over those reactionary Mum and Dad landlords that people fetishize any day.
@Millsy Luckily we have earlier Millsy who speaks out against
“businesses that only care about profits.”
The two of you should talk.
Slobbery Danboy, Luxons love child.
Nothing good ever comes out of a National Party government. 1975-2023
I don’t disagree that Natz/ACT are worse , but it’s sad that Labeen are so focused on hating the middle class (aka themselves) and fixated on some idealised, marginalised, identity that doesn’t exist, that they will destroy their kids future by stubborn woke policy and task forces that people just can’t tolerate voting for anymore and thus the Natz are back.
A small part thinks they are just too lazy for another term, many in Labeen are instead looking for an easy UN or diplomatic seat for a nice holiday somewhere else or a nice rest in opposition where they can blame someone else.
You forgot ACT arming everyone to the teeth with firearms amongst all of this.
