    Davidson in, co-leader Greens, no chance in hell now of a National coalition. Like National ever thought it likely or wanted it. End of this thread.

    Agree with that Baa Baa. Davidson is a hard left socialist that is more interested in protecting beneficiaries than she is in the environment. We will see a new green movement forming in the political middle somewhere, as it should always have been.
    I would not be surprised if such a new movement made it to Parliament in 2020 or 2023 with TOP and the Greens in current form and NZF will both disappear.

    Fair enough mate and totally understandable. No supporters of Winnie/Taxinda would want to keep their heads up !

    Well I'm thankful Fruit Loop Genter didnt get the nod. Shes banging on again about a Zero Road toll policy again. For a start it is unachievable unless we take cars off the road. Even EV's would have to go. Secondly our road toll is the lowest it has even been in real terms. Hit a high back in 1973 with around 850 deaths when our population was under 3 mil. Current deaths around 380 with a population of 4.5m. And you'd also have to ban stupid people from driving. (Like those in EV's who travel 80kph on the open road)

    That road carnage is not a ‘toll’ anymore mini.

    calling it something else will eliminate the problem I reckon

    Fruit Loop Genter may be, but Davidson is even more scary. She is a real activist from Nam!

    Apart from that agree with you about the road toll. I keep saying to the Mrs that every time they use nominal figures about our toll going up they fail to mention that there has been a steady decline and that in deaths per 10,000 cars (or whatever metric you want to use) it is not increasing but static at worst.

    Talking of scary Jam Logies been quiet for a while. In the interests of equality do the Greens have an internal policy of taking turns to say outrageous stuff?
