    I'd say a new leader and new co-leader

    She is the one advocating for those poverty but gets to live in a castle.

    The benefits paid by the tax payer and good enough for every one else weren't good enough for her. So she deceitfully took more.

    And she so respected our long held democratic process that she rigged her address to get into an electorate that wasn't hers to support a colleague.

    All made worse that no-one in the Greens seems to see anything wrong with this . But at least we can measure these unprincipled people - all 6.3% of electors who chose to vote. Each and everyone of them should be ashamed of themselves.

    I'd agree - except one of the Greens Principles is sexism. That is one of the leaders has to be based on his maleness not on his ability. So that leaves Gareth Hughes. Anyone care to share his leadership abilities?

    Other than that who have you got. No-one. But image Julie Anne Genter, Eugenie Sage and Jan Logie all vying for the two spots. And any two winning them.

    GG national. I for one welcome another blue term until Jacinda is let loose of her reins. She'll make a fine filly, but only when she's broken in.

    I'd say drop the co-leader nonsense and appoint a leader.

    Nah, Chloe Swarbrick is far better looking. And you saw what happened with Jacinda....

    Punters know snake oil when they see it. Which is why Labour has been in opposition the past 9 years and the Greens have yet to sit in government and why even today Labour and Greens combined cant cobble together a majority. NZ First is proof there are always some punters who can be suckered in.

    Jacinda's sounding upbeat about the talks with NZ First. Sounds like the compromises that they've agreed on as part of a coalition, are quite acceptable. This makes sense, since Labour's policies are quite similar to NZ First's. Just have to wait now.

    Labour's policies are not as silly as Winston's. Actually they're not even close. Very few of winston's make much sense.
