The current rise of populism challenges the way we think about people’s relationship to the economy.We seem to be entering an era of populism, in which leadership in a democracy is based on preferences of the population which do not seem entirely rational nor serving their longer interests. ...

The site will be off line for some hours.
jesus christ, what is it with the conservative national party male and their abominable dress sense? so dreadful… just so very dreadful…
It's not their shabby dress sense which is the problem, it's their shabby ideology.
By the way, I think they're not that badly dressed.
Yup … dressed for the place they're in.
I see no gumboots.
That would be a whole other caption contest
Yeah they are. Dark trousers, brown shoes is a fashion crime. No exceptions.
What a silly comment, what clothes should they wear in your opinion ?
Dignifying clothes would help.
should wear clothes with their sponsors names on them.
ran out of Affco overalls
LOL. Comment of the day!
Woodart, lol That's a cracker!! National would have most of theirs in a foreign language
It looks like a nice enough day. Budgie smugglers, white bobby socks and sandals or fleep flops.
Now I think about it, the gNatz now have their own Tarn Yabbit in the Muller.
Yes they should wear the clothes they want to wear. The crap that went on and still goes on attacking Jacinda Ardern for what she wears is okay though.
“We’re on the road to nowhere“
You easily win the contest with that.
What do ya mean "there's a bullseye on my back"?
"We have the country behind us …"
So true – and funny observer.
Car reverses away from big accident
Actually funny without being demeaning. Well done
In the glare of the headlights in full daylight.
Off the Main Road …
Man, this road is so busy, lets four lane it.
National cost-cutting drive for 2020 election – successful trials of human billboards may be extended
Macindoe – "I you take out a "m" my name can spell "Decimation""
And if you take out the c you can spell Done I Am.
And if you take out the “I” it spells Mad One.
Or you can leave in the c because you should.
Decimation? The National Party would be happy if that was all that was coming their way in September. The polls show they could lose 20 MPs—which is decimation times two.
Shabby, unacceptable, National disgrace.
Waiting to be invited into the feast………..
"Go out to the roads and the country lanes and make them come in, so that my house will be full. I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will get a taste of my banquet." Luke 14:23
edit
They won't be invited to the feast, They were the ones who were invited but had their own affairs to attend to.
But the feast was prepared and waiting.
…Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.
22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.
23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.
(That is, not the sons and daughters of the wealthy and supercilious.)

And I say unto you Labour and lefties, we are many and needy, and there is opportunity for us all to be fed and housed, without even resorting to miracles such as inflating loaves and fishes. Open your houses and minds, to those wishing to work both for their own good and to bring that same good to all the multitude of needy people who struggle, and also to others who need a chance to rehabilitate themselves.
Thanks for your edit, greywarshark.
My unkind side was going to say that these four wayfaring strangers were the ones to be invited in after " the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind."
The kind side says that I hope these four did accept the invite as that would mean they had a change of heart away from seeking only worldly things and getting their priorities right as to what is important.
A bustling hedgerow, then.
…26 dollars in my hand…
All remaining members of the National Party gather after the September Elections looking down the road to nowhere.
Looks to me like the road crew stopping for a break en route to Wellington during lock down……
Post lockdown, looking for the hubcap which Bridges lost when zooming to Wellington during the lockdown.
All wrong, they're doing a scoping exercise looking for succulent dairy farms which could be up for grabs from interests operating on leverage financing but affected badly from slow-ups affecting supply and demand because of the Covid-19 epidemic.
Looking for donations in the country.
The singing quartet out busking.
I only recognise one of them
Hard to tell. A blue Toyota?
The one that got the boot
"National Party MPs pose with the person who can still afford to drive after yet another Coalition fuel tax hike"
Michael Woodhouse says photograph proves four homeless people left isolation and hitchhiked to Wellington.
"Everything in this photo is for sale to the CCP!! Bargain basement prices!"
"If you’re waiting for a lift you will be there for a while.'
Duncan garner had a garage sale?
Out looking for that homeless man with the covid19 transmission that must be out here
One of these things is not like the others
One of these things just doesn't belong
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?
If you guessed the thing second from the left you are absolutely right. That thing has already been tried as National Party leader. The other 3 things will be tried as leader to replace Todd Muller after the next election.
Absolutely not promoting a local dogging spot.
"woof"
The happy kiwi LandLords, have raked it in again, and again, and again
"Come on – no-one's gonna give us a ride with all four of us out here. Simon, go hide in the ditch"
"so you are no longer the guy keeping the chair warm for Chris Luxon Soimon?"
