ACT's David Seymour - i like his style.

Only because Labour is funding the media.
Most can now see through Labour and their BS. They can say what they like, nobody is listening.

Other than the state owned media, the $50m funding thing finished in June. You reckon their allegiance has been bought in perpetuity?

One News ran with a big hit piece targeting ACT tonight. Something about candidates well down their list making ‘bad’ comments; one calling JA ‘jabcinda’ on-line, another guy who speculated that a spike in drowning deaths may have been linked to the vaccine. That sort of thing. The lefty media hacks will no doubt continue trawling through years of social media comments trying to find more ‘dirt’ on right wing candidates.

Of course, if One News wanted to find a political party chock full of anti-vaxxers & conspiracy theorists they only have to look as far as Winston First. But the agenda is to get Winston into the mix as either a potential Labour coalition partner, or as a handbrake on any right wing coalition - so Winston First don’t get a media waterboarding. On the other hand, ACT are well and truly in the media’s crosshairs.

Here's a thought. When (if?) ACT have any portfolios how about one of their MP's given Minister for Broadcasting?

Ha ! That would throw a spanner in the works of the red media.

What if they're incompetent though.. none of them have any experience in being part of a govt.

105 million in total Baa Baa. Maybe not in perpetuity, but who knows what Willie has promised them behind closed doors. He has his little huis with the owners and editors.

I hadn't realised Ardern had copied Trudeau's playbook in the media bribery. He gave hundreds of millions to Canadian media. Guess who backed him and perpetuated his lies about the Canadian truckers? It appears their funding has also run out as Canada gets the knives out for Trudeau.

Ardern had the gall to do it in the months leading up to an election.

Sounds like Elaine Naidu Franz should join sharetrader and post on the political threads.

Her over the top posts would go down a treat here, rather than getting her booted out of the ACT party.

Hopefully the party culture is not coming from the top down.

How could they be any worse than the motor-mouth clown Willie Jackson who wasted tens of millions of dollars on a merger that never even went ahead?

Let’s now run a fine tooth comb over the Winston First list.

Right,.... & the lawn mowing man at the bach told me his pastor & prayer group told him, tens of thousands of babies have been killed by the vaccine in NZ & the govt bribed Media are hiding it, & that the vaccine contains a tracking device & the media are hiding that too. And apparently the vaccine magnetises you & those plane trails in the sky aren't con-trails, they're Chemical trails & the media are hiding this too.
I'd never heard of the Pastor but he & his prayer group should know about these things.... not quite sure why the pastor would know about these things, but the lawn mowing man assures me he has evidence & he knows.
