Oh Lord Please don't let it be Collins (though I will concede stick her in for 12 months may not be a bad thing)

Collins would be perfect. Her mate at whale oil will dish all the dirt for her and the actions started by Joyce and english will solidify the country opinion that national is an unworthy, unethical party. How may times does it take being honest to neutralise a deceit, too many ; people dont forget.Make it crusher the bulldozer collins, a bit like muldoon in a skirt imo.

Why do some hate her so much. Genuine question.
I hear that Trump is as well popular in his electorate ... however from a leader you (or at least I ) would expect that (s)he does not turn her supporters into "winners" by turning the rest of the population off, but that (s)he is able to work for everybody. Win-win is neither Collins nor Trumps game. Collins loves only Collins and fights everybody who is not supporting her.
Collins might be a great attack dog, but I hope for National they keep her in the kennel. She may (if elected) lead National into a disaster, but she will never ever be PM.
Collins is turning off the political "middle ground" - and without them no party is able to govern under MMP.
Quite easy choice - support Collins and make sure National stays for a long time in opposition. I am sure EZ, westerly & co do love Collins.

"But National's problems still run deep. It might be facing a succession of caretaker or temporary leaders, the usual pattern for opposition parties."
Quote from "The Press" editorial this morning. None of the candidates rated with the usually conservative paper.

I think this commentary about Bill English's stint as deputy and PM is fairly accurate.

The only pattern was set up by Labour in the past nine years. You guys just dream this crap up.
