Polls Are Not Kind to National – Why?
If National doesn’t start listening to its voter base then the damage it is inflicting on itself will only get worse.

Will Willie Win?
You have to ask yourself why is Willie taking on something that must inevitably end up as a lost cause.
Debate Proves Who to Vote For
The Māori Party will be licking their lips at this scenario because they know that the tail will easily be able to wag the dog.
Is Goldsmith Out of Touch?
They’re not going to change their ways unless directed to do so. Nothing will change unless Minister Goldsmith is prepared to act. Unfortunately, that looks unlikely and so he is wasting his time.
Winston Tells It Like It Is
We might have had some problems with Winston in the past but right now we need him, and his right hand man, Shane Jones, more than ever. They are not afraid to tell it like it is. They are a rare breed in today’s political landscape.
Shane Jones Hammers in the Nails
I call it a budget suitable to the part of the election cycle we are in and it was presented with next year’s pre-election one firmly in mind.
Bravo Chris Bishop and the Coalition
Bishop and the coalition are to be congratulated for getting themselves out of a tricky situation.
A Five Year Old on Q+A
It became increasingly obvious throughout the interview that, like the budget Rachel Reeves produced, it is based purely on ideology with no work whatsoever done as to what the consequences might be and how they might be mitigated.
Red and Green Make Brown
This is a nightmare situation for the country, the majority of the people and Hipkins. In reference to the Greens’ budget, he says he won’t rule anything in or out. That doesn’t inspire confidence does it.
Why Do the Left Not Learn
Labour lacks ability and a vision, the Greens are fruitloops and the Māori Party are a racist rabble not deserving to even be in parliament. Between them they are inviting Luxon to have another three years at the helm, when many of us think he doesn’t deserve it.
Jim Grenon Hails Positive Changes at NZME
The journalists may not like it but, contrary to their beliefs, they are not the ones in charge. It is up to the board to decide the direction the paper will take and it is up to the journalists to put that into practice.
The Rose Tinted Glasses of the Left
Those of us on the right might complain about the current administration, but who would risk the appalling and frightening alternative that exists on the left?
The Right Need to Wake Up
Recent experiences at the ballot box should be a wake-up call to conservative leaders everywhere. The road to victory is to take the people with you. Failing to do so is to invite electoral oblivion as Australia and Canada have found to their cost.
Is MMP Serving Us Well?
It has become increasingly necessary for the centrist parties to garner the support of the fringes and therefore have been forced to adopt positions on matters that they would otherwise consider incidental to their main priorities.
Self-Inflicted Truths Hurt the Left
They preach growth on the one hand while taxing the lifeblood out of the very people who can make it happen. Their ideology says you can tax your way to wealth.
The Left Are Digging for Defeat
Protest groups, which is all they are, do have a place in a democracy but not in the halls of power. It is up to the voters to ensure this is the case.
