I hear you, but reality bites and says labour are as left wing as my right nut. lol. Time will come when the greens are the biggest left wing group in parliament. I suggest getting in on the ground floor to claim bragging rights. But if you want to chose a...
Not wishing to cause undue work for the admins, but I wish to change my log in name to Union city greens. Will be using the old email, so if you see it, you'll know it's me. Thanks.
Electorate vote labour, as they're either first or second place, and disregard traditional, historical reasons, party vote for the most left leaning party who you see as able to push the progressive cause. Imo, the greens. Don't feel bad for deserting ...
Wonder if David Cunliffe is having a naughty chuckle to himself, or shedding a bitter little tear, right about now? Can't but wonder how low the price of mincemeat would have fallen to after him dealing to dopey Bill in a few leadership debates.
Used to two tick labour, but definitely party vote green for a couple of elections now. I should probably change my handle to reflect that move. I now wonder if the mou is damaging the greens chances? Heh.
Even more than with NZ1st, a vote for TOP seems like a vote for national. I don't understand why any supposed lefties would wilfully and knowingly vote for the enemy. We can only hope they come to senses on election day, do the decent thing, and resist ...
So he can get the nats over the line instead of NZ1st. Thanks for that.
You say you're aware of voting block but then go on to single out labour's vote. 47% plays 39% on this poll, so a swing of 4% ties it all up. Still all to play for on the run in as polls traditionally close up. Good for the greens. Hope it continues. At ...
A remote possibility, yes, but I can't see that happening so hold with the opinion of a wasted party vote. Top are more likely to get a higher vote than Mana, though what percentage of that will come from the left is an unknown. Left leaning voters who ...
"Party-Vote for either Mana or TOP = Wasted Vote … in my ever so humble opinion." That looks correct. The only guaranteed way to change the government is party vote green or labour and to tactical vote in the electorates to remove the national candidate. ...
Junior coalition partner
So let's see if I have it right if you want to change the government at the general election. As it stands, in the electorate seats, you have to vote for the labour candidate, unless you're in Epsom, where you have to hold your nose and vote for the nat to...
You could apply for a winz hardship grant. lol
And how do you think promising extra money to beneficiaries and working families at the expense of the super rich won't grow the left block if it's there to be grown? The middle ground is done. Only movement there is bigoted racist NZ1st types changing ...
And the green voters say 'so what?' Labour voters say 'I do that too' Nat voters say 'I can't believe it's not butter. Mooo' Non voters ??? Playing percentage politics. Rock on, concern troll. :roll:
If labour aren't getting them from the right, why do you think the greens would with the same political mindset? Totally illogical.
You're in the wrong thread if you think the greens should move to the centre. It's as likely to happen as current labour remembering it's core values and working to protect and embolden the rights of the little people.
Were you, or are you now going to vote green?
Well the truth of the matter is that yes, while she admits to cheating a bit whilst on the dole, which she's no doubt paid that amount back through taxes many times over already, now she's prepared to go even further and pay more taxes as a caring high ...
The way I see it, MT's admission isn't going to affect those who are already going to vote green, they're already set in the way for needed change. They won't lose votes from the right as they'd never vote green anyway. They may leech some votes from ...
I'll oblige and retract when you make a statement condemning this particular act of violence against this women and all women in general, regardless of political persuasion.
That, and if the labour vote slides, they're picked up by the greens.
Regardless of her nasty politics, I thought we were over threatening violence or murder to women as a way of suppression. Obviously not. These threatening comments just divert attention away from her horrible policies, when it should be the victims of them...

Cricket and tennis are pretty much available to everyone, even those from low socio economic backgrounds. Certainly not elitest, well not in the mind's eye of the well grounded. At secondary school, for summer games, the choice was cricket, tennis or ...
Don't disrespect my heritage because I've used the vernacular of the street, so to speak. When in Rome, etc. Bro. ;) As for the numbers, you can deny them if you want, if that's what you're doing, but they're real and not going to go away. No talking head ...
Scottish, Labour and a Unionist. Can't be all bad then.
No edit, but it's five seats, though the point is still made. Moray C +16% SNP -10.7 L +1 LD -0.6 Banff & Buchan C +19.2% SNP -21.1 L +3.7 LD -1.7
Cool story, bro, but a bit of a shame, for you anyway, to find out the biggest leeching of votes to the conservatives in Scotland came from the SNP itself and not from Scottish Labour. In fact, out of the seats the conservatives gained from the ...
