    Is this silly amateur interference from the Greens…..I would say it is more Luxon's political naivety that is the real issue there is no govt….

      Not amateur interference, only preparing for the opposition's questions over the next 3 years (if it even lasts that long). He has summed it up accurately.

      "Does the PM from Party X agree with his Cabinet Minister Y or his Cabinet Minister Z"?

      No government has ever had this problem before. (Keyword: Cabinet).

      Nothing amateurish about it. Presume it was this response by James Shaw to a media question on the DPM issue :

      Its about two and a bit minutes into the item.

      I can understand his enjoyment when the Greens received 9% more of the vote than NZ First, and 4% more than ACT.

        Ok…maybe its just the usual amateurish fourth estate……as usual these days….nothing in depth….all just glossed over with catchy headlines….

    David Farrar in New Plymouth today, has Shane as Minister for Energy

    • Peter 2.1

      Jones Minister of Energy? Well he was the one who got all of the ‘fuzzies off the couch.’ Didn’t he? Yeah right.

    Compromise candidate will be needed for Deputy PM. Sam Uffindel seems like a perfect candidate as he exhibits the worst characteristics of both contenders – Seymour's cruelty and Peters' insouciance. Oh and Luxon's wit and originality as a bonus. He's what we deserve.
