Kennedy Graham & David Clendon can not be allowed back into the Party
You don’t get to pull the suicide bomber stance they took by publicly resigning and then try to come back in.

Why I disagree with banning Mike Hosking from hosting the debates for being politically biased
Shock and horror that Mike Hosking is hosting the TVNZ debates has erupted on social media with many claiming he is too biased against Labour to be an impartial host.
I disagree.

Newshub Poll – National 44.4% Labour 33.1% BZ First 9.2% Green 8.3%
The vast majority of Labour’s gain is at the expense of NZ First and the Greens, Jacinda was only able to pull .8% away from National, and that should be a major worry.

BREAKING: Neoliberal hate of the poor wins – Metiria resigns
…Metiria’s real crime was to challenge neoliberal cultural mythology and promise hope to beneficiaries that someone who shared their experience would force change for them.
Rich, white, male broadcasters have had their witch hunt and we have lost a civil rights hero. NZ is a poorer political landscape for it.

Waatea News Column – One of the most soul destroying parts of being inside Labour is watching focus groups.
Labour’s collapse in the Polls has gifted them a Leader who can finally explain policy in a way that resonates and is listened to, this changes the dynamic and also makes National’s next attack line, which has moved from bad leadership to bad policy, far more of a difficult trick to pull off because when it comes to policy, Labour’s are light years ahead of National.

If TOP can woo Kennedy Graham as a candidate – they hit 5%. Will Gareth Morgan be the Queenmaker?
If Labour continue to climb, and TOP can get Clendon or Graham, Gareth Morgan might be the Queenmaker, not Winston.

Rich, white, male broadcasters hating on Metiria again
…I’m not sure what angers Patrick, Garner, Espiner, Hosking, Soper or Armstrong most, that Metiria has highlighted the cruelty of our welfare system and empowered beneficiaries or that the Greens went up despite all orgy of sexist hate they spat at Metiria.

James Shaw must crush Kennedy Graham and David Clendon’s Green Wedding Betrayal
The Greens are reaching out to the weakest and poorest amongst us with a $180 per week increase in benefits, while I’m sure Jacinda will take back what the Greens recently gained, Metiria’s story resonated with many who have been cruelly treated by our neoliberal welfare state who don’t vote and may be motivated to vote.
Losing two grumpy old white men won’t hurt Green hopes of igniting that electorate.

Bill English said ‘People don’t vote on personality’ – ummmm, John Key anyone?
Personality not only wins elections Bill, it forgives almost every possible sin by the voter, that’s why National voters have turned a blind eye to suicide, mental health, poverty, inequality and the way beneficiaries, prisoners and the vulnerable are treated by the state.
