We, the voters, strongly disagree with your strategy. In the words of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher we say, ‘No, No, No.’ You might want to turn, but we are not for turning. Neither, it would seem, are your coalition partners.
Politicians lack the skills required to end wars. Churchill and Trump are possible exceptions but I don’t regard either of them as politicians. These are the types of people the world could do with a lot more of: strong, determined and committed to sorting out the issues.
The politicians most likely to get us out of this mess are Peters and Jones. These two need our support. We need them to have enough clout in the next coalition to force Luxon to stop his lunacy.
These types of issues do not contribute to the makings of a well-structured society and are designed to make the normal society as we know it appear outdated.
I urge him take some advice because this government is seriously in need of a change of direction. His personal poll rating should be giving him pause for thought and a rethink on his own performance. The government is suffering because of it.
This crazy headless-chicken stuff is playing right into Trump’s hands. He’s got the Democrats completely cornered. They have nowhere to go and no cards to play with.
At least Peters has come to the right decision for now.
During Macron’s speech, at the point where he stated France would recognise a Palestinian state, a number of delegations stood and gave a standing ovation. NEW ZEALAND WAS NOT ONE OF THEM, remaining seated and giving no applause.
These types must not be allowed to succeed and Europe must ensure, along with America, that they don’t. A global conflict could well ensue, but, as in earlier wars, it is a price we pay to root out evil.
The political left, along with their global counterparts, no longer represent democracy. They deserve to become political pariahs.
The world is in a very dark place right now. If the next global conflict comes to pass, there will be a recalibration at the end of it.
They are both in the same waka and paddling furiously for Māori dominance.
The upshot is Luxon will be saved, to some degree, by what the alternative is.
We are witnessing what a left-wing government will look like and the ensuing dire consequences for the country. Hipkins will simply cave or the radicals will bring him down. They won’t be there to protect Hipkins or keep him in power.
It is what Israel is having to deal with, on behalf of the Western world, that Luxon should take into account when agonising over his decision. If he were realistic about where things currently sit in the Middle East, he could spare himself the mental trauma he is putting himself through.
