sprout: you're just being a boring arsehole. have you not noticed none of your comments are being published? that's because i just delete them. so save yourself the wasted effort or lift your game. until you change you are only typing your comments for ...
So thats a "I dont have any, and I am just parroting Helen Clarks claim that Helen Clark was a popular PM" then?!?!?
Whats wrong with the current minimum wage is that it locks thousands of young people out of employment.
Bingo. Shes dont nothing of note, acheived nothing of note, and is there because of her connections and the boxes she ticks. Mahuta as deputy would confine Labour to third party status.
If you cant affoprd a vehicle, then dont run one (aand reacll that labour/Greens increased registration and RUCs in part to discouraged private motor use an move people to public transport.) If you cant afford expensive rents, move somewhere cheaper If you...
You are kidding when you say "Labour’s problem was that it ran an honest campaign, no lies no bullshit", right?!?! What were Goffs fearmongering babblings about all police recruitmenst being cancelled for 2012 (when on intake had beed deferred due to ...
Whats wrong with any of that?
In saying "The Left gets this: it has an environmental party, a working class party, a centrist ‘responsible’ party" you makje a grave error is saying The Greens are an environmenstal party. They're not. I desperately wish they were a environmental party, ...
Your argumenst (that Kaye also lost 2000 votes) is simplistic, lprent, because Kaye won the seat. Adhern, touted by some as the new messiah to lead Labour to the promised land, lost. That appears lost on you too. Simply haging out for the special count ...
Annette who?
What is your numerical/evidential justification for saying Clark was the most popular PM in NZs history?
You are wrong LPrent. In 2011, Jacinda Adhern got 11823 http://www.electionresults.govt.nz/electionresults_2011/electorate-1.html In 2008, Judith Tizard got 13180 http://www.electionresults.govt.nz/electionresults_2008/electorate-1.html Not only did ...
How can you call my answer to your question, complete with citation of Labour party rules from their constitution a troll comment? I claimed Labour was undemocratic in their selections, you poo-poo-ed that claim, and I backed it up with an explanation and ...
Well, its National plus partners, and a campaign fought on (the misleading banner of) asset sales, so National, as winners, do have a mandate then, eh?
LPrent is choosing to ignore the voting on potential candidates, and how those votes are allocated. Read Section 246 of Labours rules: http://www.labour.org.nz/sites/labour.org.nz/files/constitution.pdf - 3 votes for 'head office' - 2 votes for the ...
LPrent, you should know that most Auckland voting booths have 'booths' for neighbouring seats, so that 'specials' dont have to be cast when you are 3km from home. For example, a booth in Mt Eden had 'booths' for Epsom, Mt Albert and Mt Auckland.
Labours problems are encapsulated in this thread: there is nobody. All the possibilties have serious flaws, and this can be sheeted right hiome to the Clark-ites who gutted the party of any potential leaders during Her Glorious Reign, and then stacked the ...
Well, she might be, based in delusion of competance, but in all her time she'd done nothing except tick a few boxes: Female, check; Maori, check; Connected, check. Sounds perfect for Labour, but appalling for their chances of being elected and for the ...
Parekura Horomia?
And what we see is a schism in the Maori vote: - the entrpenurial and aspirational among Maori vote for The Maori Party (or leave for Australia), for programmes that address root casuses and advance opportunities and that The maori Party have been able to ...
The Maori party have delivered more for Maori in this last electoral term coperating with National than Maori ever did in half a century by giving their vote en-masse to Labour.
Would a Labour-led government with Labour in the 305-range have a mandate for anything, when many commentators on this blog say National does not with 60/121 seats?
Given that the Labour Party Central Committe and rules stacks the electorate voting for the candidate so that only the 'approved' person can win the candidacy, you've got no show on being slistened to about who will lead the party.
Please tell me you are kidding when you say "Labour doesn’t need to change much of its policy platform" and "Little’s dealt with national power figures, often winning against them in disputes, and was seen as a moderate, modern unionist by the business ...
You mean the person who lost a historicially safe Labour seat by a majority greater than Judith Tizard lost it by?!?!?
No to both
If I made an error with Cunliffes name (and I'm well aware of several of them that exist) it was unintentional and I blame it on my appalling keyboard skills, which are cleat for anybody here to see in what I write. I reiterat it was not intentional
