EXCLUSIVE: National Party MPs spooked by Judith’s rise
Judith Collins casually lounging around her Office with its wall display of the mounted heads of her enemies
TDB has leant that a National candidate is pressuring the hierarchy for the National Party vote for Leader to occur as early as Tuesday this week instead of the set period of time as Judith Collins speaks over the Caucus directly to members.
A secret campaign has begun with National Party members flooding their local MPs demanding a vote for Crusher.
The tactic has worked with 3 of the lowest ranked National MPs changing their support to Collins in the last 48 hours.
The candidate is concerned that if the full length of time is allowed, Crusher supporters will have spooked young MPs into backing her.
TDB also learned that from an internal straw poll that Adams + Bridges can’t currently beat Crusher.
In my opinion Collins would be the most dangerous political Leader in modern times in terms of abuse of power. Tomorrow I will spell out what the Right really want inside National based on their secret strategy and why Judith as Leader would mean NZ is on the verge of taking a large step towards becoming a crypto Police State.
Judith is what this country needs at the moment, an ideal foil to tackle Jacindamania.
I’m sure Judith would have been able to clinch a coalition deal with Winston, much better than Joyce, English and Brownlie did. Paula Bennett didn’t help with the coalition talks either and antagonised Winston as well, because of her sneaky dealings. You know that Judith will frontfoot and WYSIWYG.
My only regret is that she was not promoted sooner after John Key left
That woman has evil all over her face. I do hope that other National Party members wont be bullied by her tactics. New Zealand doesnt need this type of leadership (Trumpist) To me she is the devil incarnate. Being a strong person is not automatically being a good leader – look what happened when Hitler came to power.
Unless you are taking the piss …. dream on. “an ideal foil to tackle Jacindamania.” Ha ha ha ha ha ha huh?
Why do the media insist on calling Collins crusher? She is just an ideologue and bully. This usage of crusher seems to make it sound like she is a cuddly auntie rather than the font of evil she is.
Don’t give her oxygen
I recall a short time ago that Ms Collins, Minister of Police, did not even require police to Attend and Document home burglaries.
Imagine no Police in the thousands of homes in Auckland. Just crime.
Collins has no idea in the wide world. The only thing she is good at is displaying herself.. Happy as a brat – tumbling around Like a piece of paper in an unswept street.
Judith Collins got away with outright corruption on behalf of Oravida (a company her husband has significant business interests in) because John Key felt he had no choice but to stand her down when it began to impact on the National Party’s image. Key was too scared to get rid of Judith altogether (see the examples of Pansy Wong and Richard Worth for what he did when he wasn’t afraid of the member in question).
Judith’s issues regarding Oravida were never dealt with, they were just suppressed. If she were to take the mantle of National Party leader, all of Collins’ dirty laundry would be brought up again for public show (by the coalition government if they have half a brain. Winston would likely relish such an opportunity). I don’t believe Peter Goodfellow and the National Party hierarchy would ever allow that to occur (then again I was convinced Trump would never win, so stranger things have happened!)
