Let’s be as crystal clear with Simeon Brown as we can be – The Left hates Winston and would prefer syphilis to going into coalition with him
Cough, bullshit…
It comes as National’s campaign chairman Simeon Brown launched a fresh attack on NZ First at the party’s annual conference today.
Brown told New Zealanders they “can’t trust” Winston Peters’ party not to go with Labour after the election.

Let’s be as crystal clear with Simeon Brown as we can be – The Left hates Winston and would prefer syphilis to going into coalition with him.
Here are 10 things the Left would prefer than having anything to do with Winston.
10: The NZ Left would rather abolish daylight saving than spend one extra hour agreeing with Winston Peters.
9: The NZ Left would prefer to rebuild the entire health system again from scratch than sit through one more “common sense” speech that somehow ends in a culture war.
8: The NZ Left would rather explain co-governance to a hostile talkback caller at 7am than explain a coalition deal to their own voters at 7pm.
7: The NZ Left would rather get fact-checked in real time by every journalist in Wellington than pretend they agree with a “back to basics” rant from 1987.
6: The NZ Left would honestly prefer losing Cabinet papers in a hard drive crash than finding out Winston’s added three new demands overnight.
5: The NZ Left would rather defend cycle lanes in a farming town hall than defend that coalition on Newstalk ZB.
4: The NZ Left would choose another full recount, special votes and all, before agreeing to a handshake deal that comes with a press ambush.
3: The NZ Left would prefer to rewrite the entire tax system than decode whether Winston is negotiating, bluffing, or just enjoying the chaos.
2: The NZ Left would prefer to nationalise potholes than share a Cabinet table with another “back in my day” rant.
NZ needs radical change and it will never come from the status quo .The days of blue or red being in charge are coming to an end .However having the river of filth and the political throw out party pulling the strings will be a disaster like we have never seen before .Jones is an example of what we would get ,SELF BEFORE COUNTRY AND LETS SEE WHO CAN GET THE BIGGER BACK HANDER from the doners .
Luxon has failed as a leader and his girl friday has resorted to screeching about Labour at every opportunity because she has nothing to offer .NACT bleated that Labour failed to deliver but have spent 2.5 years scraping everything that previous government did. Clearly they must have done something because it has taken that long to dismantle even using urgency in the house and not having select committee process .
Bomber Hipkins and the NZLP would prefer syphilis rather than even contemplate the Greens tax policy.
“LABOUR’S SWIFT rejection of the Green Party’s new tax policy tells us far more about Labour than it does about the Greens. According to Green co-leader Chloe Swarbrick, the party provided Labour with the full details of its proposal before the public announcement. Yet on the very day the policy was released, Labour leader Chris Hipkins dismissed it almost instantly, as though it had never been seriously considered. That speed of rejection was not the behaviour of a party weighing up a potential coalition partner’s ideas. It was the behaviour of a party determined to signal, loudly and clearly, that it will not deviate from the neoliberal orthodoxy that has governed New Zealand for decades ”
” This is the heart of the problem. Labour in government has repeatedly shown that it will not contemplate meaningful tax reform. It will not touch wealth. It will not confront the structural imbalance that allows asset-rich New Zealanders to accumulate more and more while wages stagnate and public infrastructure decays. And because Labour refuses to move, the Greens find themselves trapped in an impossible position: they can propose the most progressive policy platform in the country, but by tying their political fortunes to Labour’s, they ensure that most of those policies will never see the light of day ”
Hipkins hates the Greens more than Winston , Shane and Stuart.

The New Zealand left comprises of the Greens , TMP and if back in parliament the Alliance.
If it means reentering government and not having to face real left wing progressive demands the NZLP will accommodate Winston , Jones and Nash make no mistake about it.
Hipkins and Edmonds and the entire front bench may detest Winnie and Shane but will do a deal if it means safeguarding the neoliberal framework and not having to face any of the Greens or TMP’s economic demands.
Do nothing Labour will tinker and prevaricate without facing what must be done therefor ensuring more public cynicism and unpopularity.
It will be a rerun of the last two years of the last government that was detested and thrown out in 2023 giving us the corporate self entitled clowns we are living with now.
In every NZLP government since Helen they have ignored the Greens and chosen Winston and Peter the prostitute with the exception of the Alliance in 1999 to get elected.
Hipkins will endure syphilis if it means a pathway back to incremental government.
We always knew they’d turn on each other.
They always knew they’d turn on each other.
They’ve been taking cheeky little pot shots all the way through BUT those 3 men were so desperate for power they threw themselves into their love/hate fest with reckless abandon.
Would they do it again?
Yes, I think they would because they are all, still, so hungry for power and so full of their own importance.
Poor stupid fools. They don’t learn. Their egos won’t allow them to learn. Narcs to a man, and woman.
We are tiny little pimple of a country and yet they think they are world leaders.
There are few men these days capable of being good world leaders and we seem to have them all at the same time. Our lot are just part of a wider problem. Only narcs apply, sadly for us.
