I mean, didn’t new zealand vote the current crowd in? Weren’t they magically supposed to make things better by giving everyone 10$ more each week?
Best anyone can do is get those politically apathetic people to get out and vote next time.
Well yes and no.
The PM Luxon; got well and truly played by the leaders of the smaller parties during the negotiations to form the government. A lot of the policies are not what their voters expected.
In saying that; they also knew that National was never going to go with anyone other than who they went with…so in a way the National voters did get what they were reasonable to expect.
Yeah, we did.
Unfortunately NZFirst are the kingmakers. Whomever they coalition with gets into parliament.
Labour, this time around, like idiots, shot out the gate with “we will not work with Winston” and then sat on their hands during coalition negotiations, despite Greens+Labour+NZFirst being a majority (the same as Act National+NZFirst).
This is the doing of ACT and Seymour more than anyone else.
I don’t think Winston particularly wanted to work with Labour either though, he has been extremely critical about things like co-governance and identity politics, for example.
This government is so hostile to the environment it’s not even funny.
I’ve been keeping track of their most agregious acts in a spreadsheet and yeah about half of it is environmental vandalism.
