In reply to Kheala. I think the creeping authoritarianism we in NZ are experiencing is rocketing along quite nicely under the coalition government, them being in power and all. Are you saying Labour green nz first is right wing? I would agree, they are certainly both neoliberal and authoritarian.

Aotearoa NZ is on track to follow down that same right wing authoritarian path, albeit later in the year. "Shoot them dead" Duterte's little buddy boy over here has already set up an anti-govt (the party of Dirty Politics is "holding them to account" - what a joke), and is now pitching to the world media: politicking to the max.
