Labour / NZ First Government

The bit I get is that this is a long game - the final score counts.
Australia put a few good runs in but are now far behind the line.
Maybe that had a plan but couldn't adapt as the situation changes.

I reply with my thoughts - you don't like them and I get that.
Your problem not mine - I won't debate with someone who is dogmatic and blinded by some sort of hate.

Don't forget that, as is the same with the US, Australia has a Federal system, so the response has differed from State to State. It is much easier to incorporate a coordinated response in NZ.

There are a lot of eyes watching and not too surprising if this becomes Ms Ardern's Metiira Moment.
.

I'm not sure that there are a lot of eyes watching with the voting public at the moment.
Of all the people I talk to and what I read it seems to be more of an issue here (on this thread) than anywhere else.

You will be interested to know that journalists & reporters read this thread and this forum.

Need I say more.

And your myopic view of how wonderful this government is will impact adversely on your future generations as they continue to blunder their way while spinning PR Prime Bull S - your problem.

Many are benefitting from their incompetence with a clear conscience even as they draw attention here to what a bunch of incompetents this government really are.

Hugs & kindness, Kiwibuild and quarantine debacles.

Not particularly interested but have no doubt that they do.

Hypocrisy & platitudes of how concerned Greens are for school children - every word from James Shaw an insult to every public school student out there.

And Cindy is still nowhere to be seen - it is her government's initiative to fund' shovel ready' projects with no restraint and consideration for those in real need.

[macduffy]

Shaw made a decision that was not according to party policy but he cannot unilaterally change policy.
It seems to me that he would not have made the decision if someone had reminded him of the party policy at the time.

A bit late with my comment but really? Does a party leader need "someone to remind him" what the party's policy is on a major issue? I think not.

That will change in a heartbeat once a deal is announced. Whatever the deal is it will be divisive.

Indeed it would.
