Listening to TVNZ news, it struck me that 'strong and stable,' 'getting NZ back on track', 'governing for all NZers' Luxon actually believes his own slogans! An illusion? Or just an ego talking himself up?
Ban me from this bubble please. [If you wish, you can try again in the New Year – Incognito]
Unbelievable misinformation Advantage. [You still have Mod notes to respond to (https://thestandard.org.nz/open-mike-04-11-2023/#comment-1975285), so please complete this task before you comment here again. Given the piss-poor quality of your contributions...

Dunning-Kruger!

Humble apologies for getting the point wrong, it should read 6,08%. Curia Market Research did the polling, can't find a link, I observe lots of people talking numbers without links. what other logical flaws did I state? [Not so fast. You assert all sorts ...
incognito, I know exactly what your ugly words meant, you speak in ignorance, your choice of words tells me that, as I suggested, go watch "River of Freedom" which will become NZs most important documentary ever, then you can comment on what went down in ...
Weka, labour party supporters numbered 46.7% of the Wellington protesters and the labour party vote dropped 47% from 2020, I see a correlation in those numbers, I also mentioned it wasn't helpful to vilify them, incognito tries to muddy the waters with ...
incognito obviously hasn't seen "River of freedom" I suggest you shut up watch it and educate yourself as to who and why they were there. 46,7% is no fraction and those 46.7% represented hundreds of thousands of other labour voters who will never vote ...
Bearded git credits Seymour Luxon and Bishop for taking W Peters from below 5% to 6.8%. I credit Labour for his rise. 46.7% of the Wellington protesters were labour supporters, they received no representation there and made it impossible for them to vote ...
That is assuming they see adherence to neo-liberalism as an issue. And there lies the issue!

At last - something good to vote for!
Anecdotal - yes, and hardly scientific - but the people I meet driving an uber two nights a week are - solidly Green or TPM voters, lesser number favouring Labour - quite disparaging of Luxon and think Act is a bit of a joke - hardly ever mention Winston, ...
Yes, a comprehensive victory. Now - keep it up for the rest of the tournament!
Significantly, apart from one mention at the beginning, the panel didn't discuss Seymour at all. Act have peaked at 9% IMO, and with the Natz in steady decline, and Winnie showing he's past his use-by date, there's everything to play for. As Bomber says, ...
But Luxon repeatedly said 'the average family would receive $250 a fortnight.' No 'up to.' Just a broad and bold statement. At best, that is deceptive. At worst, when he apparently knew all along that only 0.18% of 'average' families would get the maximum,...
Interestingly, hardly any mention of Seymour in the post-match analysis! Act has peaked at about 9% IMO. And on tonight's performance, Winnie is well past his use-by date. TMP and Greens clear winners! Judging by the few instance of applause, the audience ...
Buttfly that photo is NOT Utkin, do a little actual research instead of spreading misinformation, similar looking but Utkin ain't the guy in the pic.
Not a mention of the Todd family?
Just received in the male a NZF flier entitled Let's Take Back Our Country. "The flier reads: New Zealanders like you deserve a better government with experienced heads to keep the system honest." Yet looking at the NZF party list, as far as I recall, only...
what I do like about them is that they seem quite principled, They (the Greens) are the only principled party in parliament (though TPM should be included in my statement). Certainly, none of the parties on the right have any principles - except perhaps ...
Yes, I haven't heard anything from two of the better NZF politicians in the coalition - Ron Marks and Tracy Martin. Very telling!
I'm not a bible reader, but I recall, I think, from my much earlier days, something about the sins of the fathers being revisited on the children and the children's children. Which old testament philosophy would sit well with an evangelical fundamentalist ...
flakey con-man image That was about the only thing that did turn up! Luxon is a salesman, mouthing slogans and platitudes and saying whatever necessary to make a sale. He's as shallow as a puddle after 10 minutes of drizzle! And Chippie quite rightly ...
Postscript: National continues to drop, and this trend will continue. Act has stalled, and will drop to around 9% on Election night. As a leftie, I hoped for better from Labour. But the Greens went up in the TV1 poll. This will continue. And TPM will do ...
Well Barfly, shouldn't you be celebrating NATOs brutal and murderous invasion of Libya? Why on earth are you suggesting I would celebrate such an atrocity. You do understand that the USSR no longer exists right? Let's stick to the topic instead of muddying...
Barfly we are part of the club of 85 percent of the Worlds population who recognize Americas role in the Ukraine tragedy. Do you know who Victoria Nuland is and her role in the 2014 coup against the democratically elected Government of Viktor Yanukovych? ...
Coventrie you are either a liar or very badly misinformed in regards to Odessa, Name another empire that lies like USA, there are none. If you are interested in the actual situation with the counter offensive I suggest you listen to Larry Davidson an ex ...
Thank you for posting Adrian, the story reminds me of the Ukranian Azov nazis who forced over a hundred Russian speaking Ukrainians into the building in Odessa, set fire to it and shot those trying to escape the flames in 2014. I notice the Ukraine ...
