The truth about National/ACT/NZF and their consultant class agent provocateurs
In NZ we need less:
Nurses
Drs
Teachers
Maori
and more:
real estate agents
property managers
mines
cows
Welcome to the National Party.
A unique thing has happened in NZ politics with the election of this hard right, racist, climate denying, beneficiary bashing, disabled abusing Government.
It has been generated out of a total lack of actual political values, philosophy and ideas. National became utterly dependent on lobbyists for policy because they don;t have any actual political values of their own.
This has generated hollowed out lobbyist talking points which are sold as policy and which ultimately turn out to be some regulatory change that enables their donors to gain more.
This has led to a rise of astro-turf dark money funded activism that whips up right wing sentiment using basic reactionary racism.
This external corporate activism has finally found a way inside the political system with Politicians who were former lobbyists now implementing policy that benefits those lobbyists.
Shane Jones, Chris Bishop, Casey Costello, Nicola Willis, Todd Stephenson, Nicole McKee and Winston Peters are all open examples of this!
The Right will argue that the Left does this with Unions which is a total misrepresentation of the truth.
Yes the Left has Union money, but what the Unions are wanting in return is a regulated employment sector where workers are paid properly and are safe!
Those are altruistic goals that benefit all society!
The Rights lobbyists however don’t give a shit about wider society and care only about their profit margins.
The venal policy the Right are pushing is damaging to the common good while the Left fights for the common good.
We have professional corporate hitmen masquerading as politicians implement;emenfing policy that benefits their donor class.
Kiwis are not blind to this, they can see it…
A global wave of disillusionment and disenfranchisement has not spared New Zealand, with a majority of respondents to a survey here agreeing that New Zealand society is broken and the country is in decline.
Ipsos New Zealand asked 1001 Kiwis about their hopes for the future and their views of the state of the nation in the final week of February. The results, exclusively obtained by Newsroom, line up with the pollster’s findings from 28 countries overseas: People believe the economy is rigged to benefit the rich and powerful and traditional politicians aren’t doing anything about it.
Three in five respondents told Ipsos that New Zealand society was in decline and that the country is broken, aligning closely with results from overseas. This is the first time New Zealand has been included in this survey, which Ipsos has run elsewhere five times since 2016.
…the reason Kiwis believe the economy is rigged to benefit the rich and powerful and traditional politicians aren’t doing anything about it is because THE ECONOMY IS RIGGED TO BENEFIT THE RICH AND POWERFUL AND TRADITIONAL POLITICIANS AREN’T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT!
Project 25, Atlas Network, Heritage Foundation, NZ neo-liberalis, latest iteration this Governments policy playbook and actions informed by these groups.
Every time National get elected they cut taxes and shrink the capacity of the state to engage in the economy. There has to be a strong enough counter narrative within the political and economic culture in favor of public services and growing state capacity. That argument needs to made and won before the countries tax base disappears altogether.
Government out of business, business out of government.
…and they’re bringing their fascist social agenda with them. This lot are either too stupid or too invested in it to care.
stop importing more people and concentrate on housing and feeding ourselves properly. become energy efficient and reduce reliance on imported energy. de-financialize and support FREE enterprise. nz needs to de-couple from the hegemon and be COMPLETELY INDEPENDANT as a nation. including militarily. grow some fucking balls NZ.
we could be the best gangsters on the planet but all we’ve got is National and ACT. Winnie the First and Nga Puhi Jones can stay on as foreign advisors. lol.
now, who wants to help set up a false flag in Antarctica to usher in the new era?
Some think New Zealand Society is broken and in decline because they are constantly told this by the wankers that use it as a justification to slash everything to benefit their sponsors. The messengers are accelerating the decline.
