Anne posted a link to an RNZ interview with Luxon on OM today.

The voice starting at 31 seconds makes me think that Tom Sainsbury will have a wonderful 3 years entertaining us with his impressions of this guy.
Peter Sellers has beaten him to it:
Good Lord!
Do you think that Peters has just forgotten? Or delusional? Or desperate to disassociate himself from Ardern? Or just profile raising/ mischief making?
He's making totally inaccurate claims aka lies.
Whereas the truth, witnessed and documented by a range of sources, is:
Specifics:
If it was sent to Bridges, I bet my bottom dollar that it was also sent to Peters.

He conveniently forgot.
I remember Ardern saying something to the effect an email was received only minutes before he entered the mosque and started shooting.
Imagine going into government with a blatant liar!!
Maybe he's contacted Jacinda derangement syndrome, or is doing his bit to appeal to those who have it, many of whom would have voted for national, act or nz first. Maybe the more respect he has from the rabidly anti jacinda people, the more power he has in the new national party led government.
Poor Winnie. The end is nigh.Politically speaking. Nothing makes him relevant anymore. A perfect Coalition partner for Luxon. I really think that the reason he won’t speak to media is because he actually has nothing to say. Nothing to give them. He should bow out gracefully while he still has a bit of credibility left.
Attacking Jacinda with a blatant lie does him no favours at all. She should sue him for slander imo.
So sad. What next?
Luxon has painted himself Into a corner no tax cuts ,Winnie says Nationals promises are confetti.3 yrs it won't last how many of Winstons MPs can be bought off.like last time he was in coalition with National.
