Hipkins Still Won’t Say Sorry – And Aucklanders Should Never Let Him Forget It
Until Hipkins finds the guts to say sorry properly, Labour can forget about regaining trust from the city that suffered most. Aucklanders remember the trauma.

Just remember Chris Hipkins and the Labour Party need Te Pāti Māori to form a government. Imagine the shemozzle that will create.
Voters are going to go into the election with National doing the same as it always does. They will tell voters that they are less shit than Labour. But are they?
The only thing that will force real change is a catastrophic election result that rinses both National and Labour. That looks unlikely right now. Voters are grumpy but they are also stuck in old habits.
Talk of a coup exists only in the feeble minds of legacy media. Luxon will hang on in quiet desperation, getting regular coaching from John Key, like he did last Friday, until Key nods at a proposed successor.
This judgment vindicates my reporting and Matt McCarten’s advocacy and it pours shame on the legacy media for failing to hold truth to power.
Christopher Luxon was the fastest person to go from outside parliament to PM. Now it looks like he will be the fastest person to get rolled after winning an election.
Luxon needs to pull his tiny little hands out of his pockets, shelve training for the world pocket billiard champs and start doing politics better. Show some fire: tackle the issues head-on and rebuild that voter base.
Luxon is National’s boat anchor. While he remains there, National will not develop any momentum.
