Luxon is one basic bitch…
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has found himself in a tight spot, trying to justify why he called businesspeople who went on trade trips under the previous government, C listers.
Speaking to Newstalk ZB on Friday, Luxon talked up the calibre of the delegates who would accompany him to Japan.
He then said, “A few [trade trips] that we did do in the last six years, compared to when I would go with [John] Key on a few of them, had just got very watered down; just sort of the C list really.
“This is why I want the A list being there. I want businesses that can do business in Japan; have interests in Japan; and [Japan] is a key part of their business strategy going forward… not just tag-alongs. So, everyone’s there for a reason.”
Asked by Newstalk ZB on whether this was a bit insulting, Luxon said, “I don’t mean to be critical, whatsoever.”
Nonetheless, he made similar comments to the Herald before the trip.
…Luxon is so weak he has to focus all this comments on the domestic market so has to shit on Jacinda every second he gets to look butch because Seymour and Winston whip him each week.
My understanding from sources inside MFAT is that they and the invited business leaders are deeply embarrassed by Luxon’s dick head comments and there is a feeling that Luxon’s upbeat CEO tough guy routine is actually causing more trading damage than good.
Luckily for NZ, this had nothing to do with trade because secretly its waa defence deal focused on including Japan in sharing top secret 5 Eyes intelligence.
The trade nonsense was a cover for this so Kiwis didn’t ask any impertinent questions like, ‘why are we sharing state secrets with a country we went to war with during World War 2.
All eyes are on the next set of polling because if National slips into the low 30s, there is talk of numbers rolling Luxon.
The 3 candidates under consideration for taking over from Luxon are Nicola Willis, Chris Bishop and Erica Stanford.
I don’t think a leadership change will save National, but I enjoy seeing their panic as they look at a polling meltdown unseen in the MMP age.
Luxon, Willis, Bishop, Stanford…
WTF..
What a weak, useless, inexperienced,
vacuous, uninspiring, hopeless, line-up…
N.Z…..RIP
That Bishop, Willis and Stanford could be seen as the best potential candidates (or the most ambitious) to replace Luxon shows what a sorry bunch of Z-listers National are. They really have had a talent bypass.
Luxon, in addition to being a demonstrable wimp, is proving to be a PM that sucks up to the constituency when at home, but is happy to slam our awesome nation overseas at every opportunity. Are you sure he isn’t an Australian just masquerading as a human penis to collect votes from conservatives and neolibs?
If Luxury Luxon has to waste his time abroad criticizing past leaders and govts., he’s ‘cluxxing’ at straws and shows why he shouldn’t be there.
Every moment should be spent promoting NZ and NZ’ders. He’s paid to blow our trumpet not to tell them why we are useless. So, whose side is he on?
A typical narcissist blames everyone but themselves. A poor workman always blames his tools.
Wouldn’t most of the ‘tag-alongs and C-listers’ there under Labour, be the same ‘tag-alongs and C-listers’ who are there now, almost identical surely? He’s there, after all.
Joy. Trashing the previous govt is a waste of time, totally non-u, and also dishonourable, and the Japanese are honourable people in a way that may not be appreciated by persons like Luxon. It’s hard to envisage Luxon running on his sword when he stuffs up, and although I am not an Ardern fan, I do wish that he hadn’t done it. It’s embarrassing being represented by such a tawdry jerk.
Second rate people sometimes think that they can elevate themselves by demonising others. Wrong. M Markle and her druggie hubby Harry do it ad infinitum, and if it’s some sort of arrested development syndrome which it seems to be, Luxon should be replaced ASAP. Hitting on a woman was bad form too, and God knows what he might do next.
The skin head gang leader is a very poor d grade PM .He spent 3 years in opposition running the country down at every chance he had ,and now he thinks he is the be all and end all of nz .Nz has never been a one man band let alone a one man skin head gang land .However we will soon be a very sad desperate nation if this idiot and his gang members remain in power for too long .His deputy gang leaders are no better as one represents the rich pricks and the other the river of filth and none of them have any idea of what society is .
Luxon’s idea of ‘good business’ is having Air New Zealand buying 777-300ER’s with fuel tanks that will spontaneously explode. Think we can disregard his opinions on everything.

Surely no one in National is talking leadership change. The damage would be huge and most of it would come from their so-called coalition partners. Seymour and Peters already undermine National at every opportunity and would pounce on the bloated corpse of Luxon like vultures given the chance.
Talk of Luxon being pushed our is a wet dream for most of the posters here. I bet if a National member had been on full pay for 3 months while checking out if they were involved in an illegal operation it would be headlines but the Greens are untouchable
No room for two wet dreams with you creaming yourself over Luxon, Trevor. Plenty of National corruption headlines recently.
When i first saw this i had a flashback to primary school and of that little kid that pokes his tongue out at the lonely kid and chants, “My friends are cooler than your friends” What a complete cock.
Kim. Yup. If he has a personality disorder, he’s likely to get worse, they always do. He has done a few over-the -top sort of things, IMHO.
Was hoping his plane being grounded would have helped ground his ego. Clearly not.
I find our PM to be very mediocre and he is extremely childish and attention seeking, he also needs help with his communications because he sprays before he thinks. It’s bad enough people in our country are genuinely suffering and he is busy overseas putting the boot in, we simply don’t need this bullshit.
Hahaha it would be funny it it weren’t so true Luxon is one basic ugly bitch in form and personality. What an embarrassment to the nation having that dickhead represent us. After Jacinda. God what schizophrenic madness has taken hold of this country.
National are also wasting money on frankly offensive propaganda pamphlets justifying their fucked up budget and trash talking Labour yet again. Whatever it cost to rain that shit down in households mailboxes could have gone towards school lunches.
Straight in the bin it went.
We know what they think and what they are doing. We don’t need pamphlets.
Offensive is the word. I find every one of them offensive. They are crude amateurs bumbling around with our future and ruining as much as they can in their selfish disregard for their fellow-New Zealanders.
Luxon worked at Unilever … ‘Unilever: a multinational tax dodger classic’ https://michaelwest.com.au/unilever-a-multinational-tax-dodger-classic/
A lot of John Keys work as PM was plugging New Zealand into the tax haven network ,, ” the number of foreign trusts exploded from 2000 in 2006 to 12,000 today, it became clear foreigners could use the trusts to evade their own countries’ tax, which hurt New Zealand’s reputation.”
John Key received and regularly met extremely dodgy people …”Prime Minister John Key says it is no secret he had lunch with British billionaire Lord Michael Ashcroft who was in New Zealand for the Rugby World Cup final.
“I see him every time he comes to New Zealand.”” … “Lord Ashcroft, a philanthropist and businessman, shouted the Prime Minister a private plane trip from London to Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and from there to Davos, Switzerland.” … “Ashcroft’s considerable financial fortune has been partly tied up with financial activities in the tiny tax haven of Belize.” … ”
” a 1994 report by a British foreign office advisor calling for tighter regulation of financial services in Belize and noting with some alarm that “low standards of regulation and supervision’ were attracting “those seeking to conceal proceeds of drug trafficking and other serious crime.”
Key went on, and delegated other people,,,, to go on ‘strange’ trips … “Mr Key asked Mr Shewan and Don Brash to go to the Bahamas in 2014 to advise that country on introducing a Goods and Services Tax” ….
Right wingers and tax havens walk hand in hand ,,,,, tax havens and corruption are joined at the hip.
Tax havens avoid taxes,,,, lowering Governments revenues ,,, lack of Govt revenue is the excuse for privatizations ,,, to multinational corporations who use tax havens while owning/running privatised water, gambling, transport, health, prisons services etc etc.
Some more info on Luxons trips with Key could be interesting …
Summing up ,,,The whole world has a corruption problem ,,,, and the Nacts help the corrupt

I agree with all the comments above and add……what a shocking insult and how offensive to the decent good business people who accompanied JA on her overseas trade delegations. On this point – Kim, you are so right.
In putting down and in effect scoffing at the previous trade delegations by calling them ‘C’ Listers, Luxon boasts about the trade delegation he took overseas with him, one of whom was the CEO for Air NZ and after the debacle and embarrassment of the airforce plane breaking down, the CEO of Air NZ steps in to save the day by diverting an Air NZ plane to pick Luxon up, but in so doing upsets the plane-load of passengers who had no idea about the diversion and landed in another country before arriving at their own destination. Not a major I know because the passengers finally reached their destination, but talk about sycophantic grease ball behaviour by the CEO for Air NZ.
Meanwhile…
The PSA is taking legal action in the Employment Relations Authority today (Friday) to make the Ministry of Education comply with its obligations to redeploy staff losing their jobs because of the Government’s spending cuts.
The Ministry, which is proposing to disestablish 755 roles, is required by provisions in the collective agreement to make every attempt to redeploy affected employees, on a case-by-case basis, including committing to retraining.
The Ministry’s change process has been poorly managed and caused more distress and anxiety than it needed to.
As a result of the legal action the Ministry has paused the EOI processes for filling internal roles, extended notice periods for those facing redundancy and let voluntary redundancy processes continue. The PSA will advocate the best option for each member on a case-by-case basis which is what the collective agreement requires the Ministry to do.
Govt cuts will expose Kiwi to more extremist content, scams and sexual harm – PSA
Education Ministry taken to Employment Relations Authority over spending cuts – PSA
One in six positions at Ministry of Health to go, Suicide Prevention Office still downgraded – PSA
Corrupt government continues…
The PSA represents privileged people who have eye watering redundancy compensation entitlements. The little poppets pocket them and then bring personal grievances. No tears being shed here.
The PSA represent a collective you fuckwit. You are happy with corruption, no surprise judging by your comments.
You are not quite right in the head.
I ignore your anger at being exposed. The redundancy compensation clauses in PSA collective agreements are far more than any New Zealand worker could aspire to. PSA members are privileged and you can cry as many rivers as you like. Having pocketed eye watering pay outs, the privileged will take personal grievances for more trough money from taxpayers.
When Sir Ian Taylor feels the need to post a retort to Luxon, then you know it’s embarrassing. Luxon is an amateur.
Liquidate Luxon
Voting people out is what you do Derek (if you are a person and not a bot).
Sorting non persons like you out is what we do anus
I suspect Derek that you are being monitored by the state.
Nah that would be wasteful spending
Ennius, I’m sorry you weren’t breastfed as a child.
Fucking liquid Lux Flakes cunt
You are also no doubt being watched by the security services.
I guess that is to be taken as a threat of sorts.
If I were the SIS, I might think Clive and Derek were close to the line.
I am not a lefty. I find Luxon to be a gaff-prone, mediocre people pleaser who proves that talent is a highly subjective concept. The problem is that politics (regardless of the tribe) attracts a certain type of person who mistakes the sound of his or her own voice for usefulness. Light-weight Key, the simple Ardern, Goneboy Chopkins, angry Swarbrick (diarysis is on the ë, bless her cotton socks for the errant ö) and the TPM rabble. Winston (who has never received my vote) is best of a truly awful lot. Seymour‘s claim to fame is euthanasia. A plague on them all.
Who are the cunts that voted for these cunts
Kinda the majority. To explain, that means more than half of the people who voted.
Fucking Trev or Bob the Fart that’s who
It was a majority of electors, Clive. That’s how the rules work.
Well if the conversation is about National the majority clearly did not vote for them. Hence the need to partner with the two reprehensible dickheads.
I didn’t vote for MMP. It empowers the lunatic fringe.
Golly what a wordsmith our Clive is,a man of character and integrity,an educated soul.
We are indeed fortunate to have such people.
Wrong it was the 750,000 that couldn’t be bothered to vote that let these pricks in through the backdoor.
With a jack up arrangement in Epsom and the cookers aligning with the WINSTON 1sxt party.

Short term thinking by a short term government is coming home to roost.
At least Willis can go back to her day job of being a mother because she is a woeful finance minister.
I read that even King Charles does not intend to visit NZ on his trip down under, one can only guess that it is the C-grade prime minister he doesn’t want to meet?
Bonnie. The country which gave him sausage rolls for his coronation and the current PM’s wife charging $115.00 to have afternoon tea ? Don’t blame him.
If he isn’t well enough to be king, he needs to go.
Ennius. He may be concerned about New Zealand’s airplanes and ships breaking down all over the place.
True. Who could blame him.
