Christopher Luxon hits lowest popularity in past year as leaked poll reveals souring public mood
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has sunk to his lowest popularity in the past year, with a leaked poll showing more voters disapprove of him than approve – even after quelling leadership speculation and internal grumbling at the end of 2025.
The Post
Look, sure the Prime Minister is as socially popular as drunk driving, but we are forgetting what he truly represents, us as a people.
The ill-deserved self confidence of an evangelical Christian, his open disdain for poor people, his spinelessness when it comes to Winston and Seymour, his cowardice when it comes to Trump, his bland CEO KPIs, his mediocrity, his dull intellectualism, his faded values – all of these things make him the perfect representative of what we have all become thanks to social media hate algorithms.
A nation of ruddy faced, low imagination horizon Hobbits fixated on cow udders, sport and alcoholism with a level of domestic violence that borders on an undeclared civil war.
We would burn books if anyone knew what a library was.
We are so laid back we are horizontal.
Yes, Luxon is a bland anti-intellectual brain fart whose mendacity and sophistry makes his obvious sense of ego horribly misplaced, but aren’t we a Nation of bland anti-intellectual brain farts whose gauche sense of parochial self worth is far greater than objective reality?
We cursed Jacinda and banished her from NZ because she had the temerity to save 20,000 lives for crying out loud, you gotta expect some karma backlash for that.
Look.
Luxon is a charmless chump, but he is the Prime Minister NZ deserves.
Luxon is now doing one of his classic back flips ,sucking up to Maori big time .After spending the last 3 years bashing and lying about them stealing the water and having unknown priviledge he is now handing out boxes of KFC hoping it will buy some votes .
I hope Maori are not that shallow that a box of KFC counts as a vote winner come election day .They need to take a look at the big picture of the back wards steps that have been taken by his government .Maybe he now thinks he owns that land because he paid for it with KFC ,back to the 1800s we go .
Luxon is what you get when you have the interfering toxic cocktail of ‘business commentators’ who have unfetterd access to all media outlets, big money…unlimited amounts…poured into propaganda, that is used to con a, predominantly, unsophisticated thinking country, easily manipulated by a plethora of dumb sycophants willing to spread ‘the word’.
The lack of depth of thinking….i.e….unable to apply even the most basic survival instinct thought processess is deeply concerning..
Where is the quid pro quo analysis on anything….where are the 3 ‘and then?’ questions applied to any deciscion to tease out flaws?…
Answer ..there is very little to none of
that.
Luxon has stated on a number of occasions that he has no interest in intellectual conversations…
What he is basing anything on is a mystery….but he is a weird religious nutter anti- abortionist ..so… using that as a datum…there’s logically just a big mess going on inside that head.
If the leader of a country’s head is a mess …the country will be a mess…combine that cognitive confusion with big money influencers and there you have it ….a big, fat, hard to rectify mess…and so be it!
Luxon is there to do a job not make friends.The results speak for themselves as the economy is improving and businesses are feeling confident in the future.
Jacinda may have been more popular as a leader but she was not hard on her team and they let her down when it mattered leaving her drained and dispirited.
” The results speak for themselves”….
Unemployment was pre Luxon at 3.4 %…. now 5.6%…6% actually if it weren’t for Australia option.
Growth….non existent in real terms
Return to surplus …as verfied by treasury….Pre Luxon/ Willis…mid to late 2027 now 203..
Infrastructure projects…niw behind by 3 – 5 years
No ferries..due now
Poverty…up
Crime…no headway
World ranking…down 20 places.
Borrowing…Higher … much higher
Tax take …down
I could go on …but it’s not even up for further debate!
He’s a walking talking disaster..
.
Is that why he delivered the KFC Trev and gave $10 million (approved by Nicola) at Ratana for a church.
Yes CIP, Luxon flake trying to “buy” friends now.
Who told you the economy is improving, Willis, Luxon, Santa or the tooth fairy?
Fuck Trevor you are so naive.

““Have we got cost of living pressures that are still there? Yes, we do. Are there risks of interest rates rising sooner than we previously thought. Yes, there are.”
He said the story of the last three years was New Zealand’s economy going “sideways instead of forward”.
“I think the problem for households is you’ve been told for three years that things are going to get better, and you’re tired of hearing that story,” he said.
“There aren’t many signs that the labour market is turning around.”
Kiernan said ten years ago New Zealand grew its economy not through productivity, but through bringing over more people through immigration.
“And we haven’t got the people coming in at the moment, and we are struggling to grow in that regard.”
Major Kiwi bank Westpac NZ announced on Thursday that while it was cutting its six-month advertised fixed home loan rate, it was also raising some longer-term home loan and term deposit rates.”
If Luxon was any weaker on his team he’d be a teabag short of a cup of tea with milk only.
So Trevor, please put your big boy Pomme pants on and stop with the lies.
