Winston has been kingmaker 4 times and NZ is no better for his race baiting, conspiracy theories and malice
Winston is older than Israel.
He has been kingmaker 4 times.
He plays to grievance and resentment.
NZ is no better for his race baiting, conspiracy theories and malice.
That so many Kiwis see his as their saviour is a failing for civil society.
He is the toxic political fart of Nigel Farage this year.
The average anti-vax NZF supporter fears fluoride in their water, thinks climate change is a socialist hoax and believes eclipses are the Moon Dragon eating the Sun King.
By attacking the WHO, Winston is playing to their bigotry and ignorance in the worst possible way.
He is a calcified prejudice for mouth breather sectarianism.
He is Old Zealand constantly strangling the hopes of New Zealand and his electorate is the celebration of gauche callowness.
This is the Party of Book Burners and people who are hurting.
I know a woman in her 30s, she is a cleaner and she has been told by her company that they are running out of work because migrant workers from India and Asia are undermining wages and they are losing contracts.
She is voting for NZ First because they are standing against the Free Trade deal.
Others who have been cooked by social media hate algorithms are MAGA in their level of fanaticism towards NZ First.
It’s people who are hurting economically while feeling culturally insecure.
Any Government with NZFirst’s climate denial, environment degrading exploitation agenda and anti Treaty rhetoric will be a failure to do anything meaningful on any social and economic issue.
He’s already ruled out working with Labour, Greens and Te Pati Māori so what is the point voting for him to change the Government when he flat out refuses to change the Government!
Despite brushing off the numbers, Peters used the time to draw a line in the sand ahead of the election, ruling out any cooperation with Labour, Te Pāti Māori and the Greens.
NZF is a resentment grift, those voting for them don’t understand that yet.
We all know that Winston is a ‘one-man’ party and is there only for himself. That NZ has allowed him to be ‘kingmaker’ so many times tells us we are weak and guilty of feeding his ego. We must break this hold he ‘thinks’ he has over us. Those voting for him, at present, are the lost, rudderless souls who have fled National and Act. If they have a working brain they will rationally decide on the correct move and if not, desist from voting! Backing Winston is a continuation of the same old SH&T we have been handed out these past two years. However, I do back Winston’s anti Free Trade stance – it’s an immigration scam!
‘I know a woman in her 30s, she is a cleaner and she has been told by her company that they are running out of work because migrant workers from India and Asia are undermining wages and they are losing contracts’
A novel approach I know but perhaps the parties on the left should consider how to actually help people in her situation. Various state income supplements etc are just band aids that don’t solve the problem and you just fall further and further behind.
Structural change to both the economy and employment are needed, get rid of sham contracting arrangements that force wages down, investigate and get rid of employers that are using back handed payments to circumvent NZ employment and immigration law. Criminalize wage theft and then start taking the bastards to court.
