This election we have crazy right wing religious parties in every shade of schism alongside total bat shit crazy conspiracy parties, alongside fronts for China, alongside vanity projects.
Todd Muller doesn’t have the luxury of being in power while increasing middle class property speculation to gloss over his sins.
Over the last few weeks pundits on the Right and the Left have taken my 3 year old argument the Greens won’t get over 5%.
We’ve successfully processed 30 000 Kiwis through this system, 4 have behaved appallingly. The NZ Herald, Mike Hosking and Tova will personally blame Jacinda for that and rather than allow our toxic solidarity explode all over a Government that is actually saving us, allow it to channel, via social media, onto those whose personal demons drive them to do stupid, stupid, stupid things.
This is less Machiavellian ‘House of Cards’ political skull thuggery and more ‘Dickheads do petty spite with breathtaking incompetence’.
I don’t wish to sound critical of my fellow comrades in the mainstream media – but folks, if Jacinda had been caught out misrepresenting facts the way Muller has this week over the Boag omnishambles- Tova, Hosking & the Herald would be calling for sackings, public floggings & Civil War.
The latest Boag revelations are so extraordinary and speak to such a depth of dirty politics it’s difficult to see how Muller’s leadership survives this.
Difficult days ahead for the NZ First team and whanau.
If Rio Tinto are going to abuse us with such spite, all possible responses should be considered.
