The election looms and the polls seem to suggest that Labour and its groupie parties will be able to do the impossible in the face of the indefensible and somehow ride to glory on the coat-tails of the idiocy, dishonesty, lies, ignorance and incompetence of its ministers. Is there any one of them that we can trust? We should not ever trust them. That Jacinda Ardern saw that the jig was up and departed so suddenly is deeply cynical; she knew exactly what she had done and that she had not even a shred of credibility remaining. Good move, Ms Ardern. And a dame to boot. And a lucrative book deal: Fish and Chipkins Wrapping for Dummies? Sad but only too true. The “nothing left in the tank” departure was an orchestrated litany of lies – it was all pre-arranged. She should have phrased it ‘nothing left in the bank’, as is the current financial reality for the country and for many of its struggling citizenry.
Back to kissing and making up. The KISS acronym has several interpretations.
KISS is an acronym for “Keep it simple, stupid” – a design principle noted by the US Navy in 1960. […] Variations on the phrase include keep it stupid simple, keep it short and simple, keep it simple, sir, keep it super simple, keep it simple or be stupid, keep it simple and stupid, keep it simple and straightforward, keep it simple and safe, Keep it simple, student, keep it simple, silly, keep it simple and sincere, or keep it simple and secular.

As a project management tool keep it simple and straight was used to set project objectives and evaluate if those objectives fit the project.
Global Negotiator
Using the project management definition, what is the objective we wish to achieve at the upcoming election? Surely it is to get rid of the current chaos of contempt that exists in the Labour party and its ministers incapable of understanding the rules let alone their portfolios.
On that basis, we do not have a choice. We vote either left to continue the headlong rush to socialism, with ‘the rich’ paying for far too many to contribute nothing. The government’s ‘unintended consequences’ of the Greens’ wealth tax now under discussion would see the ‘wealthy’ depart New Zealand. This is called the ‘killing the golden goose’ policy. It is guaranteed to drive us further down toward the list of third-world countries.
If you set the ‘rich’ bar lower, then many will find themselves being ‘rich’ and literally paying the price for that. Is that what you want? Call it for what it is: a tax on hard work and achievement. It is an envy tax. Tax everyone, so we are all at the same level of hopelessness and, bingo! – the communist objective has been achieved. Simple indeed.
If you want the daily progress to take the country to tribal rule, then, fine, it is your choice, so vote Labour or TPM or the Greens, who are not green but out-and-out communists. Your choice.
If, on the other hand, you want to halt this divisive direction for this country, for New Zealand, then vote right. Vote National or ACT or New Zealand First. Again, your choice. If the direction the National/ACT coalition is not entirely to your taste but, overall, you can’t vote for the continuation of the Labour coalition of chaos, then swallow the smallest dead rat and just vote to get rid of the current political shysters.
The endless nit-picking over whether Luxon is a tool and whether he will repeal this or that, or whether David Seymour and ACT are actually going to do just that, i.e. act, or if Winston can be trusted to never work with Labour lies again no longer matters. Just vote for one of them – the party vote. Vote right. Keep it simple and straight. Achieve the objective.
In [debates], people turn to the floor to express their opinions, objections, or points of view, in the hope of convincing others, instead of using violence to impose themselves on them. In fact, to ensure that the debate is organized, there is usually a moderator who assigns turns and ensures mutual understanding.

…instead of using violence. But violence is just what the Labour party has enacted:
- Behaviour involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.
- The unlawful exercise of physical force or intimidation by the exhibition of such force. Bing search
The Wellington protests, the failure to protect Posie Parker, the attack on an elderly lady, etc, all happened under the auspices of this government – violence. The intimidation of those who dared to go against the indoctrination of the Covid scam and lost their lives, jobs, friends and family, income, homes – intimidation is violence; make no mistake about that. Do you want to vote for that to continue? Then use your vote to tick Labour or the TPM or the not-Greens: a collection of clowns.
If you can see some, any, improvement with a change of government, then it doesn’t matter which right-leaning party you vote for. It matters that a right-leaning coalition will be the only government that may be able to halt the frightening slide that we face. And the National Party has released and discussed many policies, but either the MSM turns them inside-out and ridicules them or doesn’t give them air time or print them. That is not necessarily a failure of the National Party; it is an outcome of a bought-and-paid-for media.
While it is heartening to see mostly helpful and respectful debate, as prompted by Cam’s article, it is also somewhat disheartening to see the differentiation of vote choice based on individual and separate policy discussions. It seems that we are long past that and that the months of deliberation and discussion are now at a point at which we really do need to keep it simple and straight and make our vote count. There are only two choices: left or almost right.
KISS and keep it simple and straight. Achieve the objective.
