Those tasked with ensuring the donor interests of the Right are always protected are terrified.
The greatest fear the Banks, the Billionaire Class, the Speculators, the Corporations and the Polluters have is a Labour/Green/Māori Party Government.
Normally those interests can rely on Labour’s incrementalism to prevent any real progressive legislation ever passing, but the Greens and Māori Party simply won’t allow Labour to be incremental in any future Government so the Right are shitting themselves.
There is a rumour being sold by Right Wing Trolls that te Pati Māori, Greens, ACT and NZF are so extreme that National and Labour are considering a grand coalition.
The Right Wing Trolls are so frightened by the possibility of a Labour/Green/Māori Party Government, that the grand coalition idea is being pimped as the solution.
It shows the lengths the Banks, the Billionaire Class, the Speculators, the Corporations and the Polluters are prepared to go to stop a real democratic threat to their interests.
I love their tears, they are delicious.
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.
In fairness there isn’t much, if anything between the right flank of Labour and the left flank of National
Bullshit Frank tell that to the people striking for better and work conditions, the thousand leaving our country, the young people who can’t find work, our Maori people who are being crapped on at the moment, the people who are homeless, the many who can’t afford to pay their power bill and buy NZ produce and products.
I read Du Plessis-Allan’s opinion on Hipkins posted 21/10 – and thought “another one’s lost the plot”! Is she blind as well as biasedly stupid? Can she not see that this CoC-up has given ‘nothing-zilch-zero’ to those in need, but continued to support the already sorted? Dumb mistake – awful misstep, which is already producing consequences. So DPA et al suck it up – you and your smug lot have stirred this pot big time for far too long. Unless you are as thick as two short planks [?] surely you MUST SEE the dreadful state of NZ after two years of mismanagement, corruption, countless lies and half-baked policies – SURELY?? What your ilk don’t/can’t grasp is the number of needies has grown as all the goodies have been sucked up by the already sorted, smug greedies! This CoC has destroyed the fabric of our society and our lives. It’s too late for the Right now so again just suck it up and stop whinging. Let’s also not forget the EXTREME SPITEFUL RACISM that’s being used as an ugly weapon by this CoC-up mob!
Yep everything was so “Amazeballs” before the change in government. Given this I’m struggling as to why people voted Hipkins out of office.
Bigotry, born of rank stupidity would be my best guess.. Coming back to NZ just before the lockdown, I was appalled by the level of childish self centeredness, and delusional thinking I came across… This is still a British colony in many ways, and it shows…
The 3 clowns are so out of touch with the bottom feeders that they have absolutely no idea how people are struggling,Luxon and co throw figures around as if they are nothing. A percentage here a point there, please please let’s get rid of these awful awful human beings sooner rather than later and bring some sanity back to this country.
But the real problem is they are not human-beings – they are vacant, empty, bullying robots with no compassion, empathy or moral values! If it wasn’t for our RW warped Media they would have been long gone!
“There is a rumour being sold by Right Wing Trolls that te Pati Māori, Greens, ACT and NZF are so extreme that National and Labour are considering a grand coalition.”
ACT… the most extremist party in our political history.
Wouldn’t surprise me if Hipkins considered this more desirable than working with the actual left-wingers of TPM.
If Labour considered doing that they would have lost any claim to Left completely and maybe Greens would take their place. They would just become National so any left leaning support would no longer be Labour, they would have to migrate to Greens. There is no way a Labour supporter would become a National/Labour supporter.
A grand coalition has appeal because all of the extremist minor parties are neutralized.
Good insight. NZ First – despite the anti-woke rhetoric – do have some far-left economic policies and always have. It was NZF that pushed the minimum wage up by a dollar a year during the Ardern government. They have also called for renationalization of the electricity sector – recently and in the past.
Combine that with the Greens think big fiscal vision and Labours need to bring in new and younger voters …
Saying that NZ First does need fresh leadership – do they have that depth at present would be my concern.
Why on earth would Labour go into government with those usless pricks and the band of mean bitch ministers of hate .
TMP is the gift that just keeps giving to the right wing assassination squad. You can see how the next campaign is going to be run when RNZ seizes any opportunity to running and highlighting any controversy regarding TMP regularly every day.
I am not sure Kiwis are aware of the herculean effort it will take to seize power back from the main groups who hols it now and have only been emboldened since this regime was elected. The cost could not be higher on the prospect of this reigime being re elcted at the election. Is the current opposition parties and their leadership equipt for the coming camapign that has already begun possibly one year out.
Do please me Allan is sorted that is why she talks like she does when her old boy Soper had heart problems it was straight into a private hospital to fix his ticker.
