Look at the apocalyptic fires in Australia – when will they start fleeing to NZ?
There are 24.5 million Australians.
There are barely 5 million of us.
How are we going to cope politically and culturally if swamped by our larger neighbour?

The real purpose of National’s new ‘Sustainability NZ Party’
Matt McCarten’s strategy for Labour in the 2017 election was to undermine National’s support parties to create the space for a win. It took Labour 3 terms to realise that strategy, it’s taken National one term out of power to adopt it.

The only reason there has been so much cross Party support for the Zero Carbon Act is because it doesn’t do anything
The only reason National and their farmer mates are on board is because this doesn’t do a bloody thing! If this sophistry is a ‘win’, your definition of ‘win’ is as meaningless as this Government’s definition of ‘transformative’.
