The Daily Blog warned you last month and as early as February that there was the possibility of a snap election.
That reality is finally trickling out to the mainstream media…
Why Peters has stepped up his undermining of Luxon
Greens tighten candidate selection process and preparing for snap election
‘We are ready to go’: Labour talks up potential for snap election
…folks, you can read it here first, or wait for the mainstream media to read it here first and then report on it a month later.
As The Daily Blog argued LAST MONTH, the deep budget cuts in Nicola Willis’ next Budget are so extreme they are panicking NZ First.
There are back channels occurring between NZF and Labour as a faction inside Labour start to panic that the extreme nature of the Māori Party would make including them in any future Government dangerous and a vote killer for Labour.
The triggers for a snap election are all around the budget and the transition of Deputy between Winston and Seymour.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.



Good, this terrible govt, the worst in at least 50 years, needs to be binned.
Lo, you have already forgotten the last Government.
“Lo, you have already forgotten the last National Government.”
fixed
Sadly forgotten compared to this corrupt lot, Labour were at least competent!
“the worst in at least 50 years”.. That would take us back to the Muldoon government, who just happened to be the first tory government to openly attack the legal foundations of the union movement..
Historicly speaking, the Muldoon represent simply the first wave of what has become a decades long assault upon what our past generations fought, and died to protect…
The current rabble is nothing more than the “occupying administration”.. The consolidation of the occupying power, and the imposition of the appropriate regulatory/legal framework to maintain total control of the populace.. Margaret Thatcher will be proud!!
An election would secure the party of choice for the next 6 years . I hope it is National but really with MMP any result is possible .We only need to go back to 2017 to see how the second party got into power .
I think if ACT or NZF caused an election they would suffer a back lash as middlecincome voters hate uncertainty as it hits the back pocket
Hoping is not coping, the current National lot have proven useless. Similar as 2017 Luxon is only PM because Winston put him there. I would wager that when Winston finally calls it a day so will MMP as we know it.
Don’t be so sure.
The opinion polls mean bugger all.
That’s the thing about you right wingers you are so damn sure of yourselves as the Natural Govt of any day that you aren’t.
The younger generations are much more on to it than you give yourselves credit for.
Labour neo liberals may be Freaking out but lets not forget the number of Young Maori voters on the Maori roll have doubled as have younger Green party followers.
2026 or the next election the neo liberals are on the way out because the younger generation have been screwed over once to often.
Quite the contrary the youth of today are not influenced by the tired arguments of yesteryear, down at pit, come up from mill, the Watersiders lock out.
eH!, WHEN HOW, easter birth again, half way, now this them treason back. eh! wit,
As bad as this government are, the prospect of The Greens and TPM anywhere near the corridors of power scares the bejesus out of anyone not off their meds voting Labour.
But Labour are the best and only choice as Phil makes good points its MMP that produces the waggy tails
