Ranked on Their Mid-Term Prospects
Luxon and Hipkins: ‘politically weakened’ or ‘muddling through’.
Luxon and Hipkins: ‘politically weakened’ or ‘muddling through’.
Obviously Nicola Willis does not want to make a coat out of Dalmatians or dress as well as Miranda, but Labour cannot see this, any more than they cannot see that Willis is far more presentable and politically adept than Luxon.
Labour could do more to destabilise the National Party, but will they?
What has been really noticeable is how few people have come to his defence.
Kiwis voted for change at the last election, and Luxon said, yeah, nah.
Bishop may be doing the numbers, but the indications are he is not.
Luxon’s inept media performance has something to do with his inept management of his staff.
Paula Bennett is putting it about town that she should be the Nats next president.
This is a fairly simple play but the Labour Party is filled with exceptionally simple people who fail to make the simple plays time and time again. It is almost as if they want to maintain Luxon in place.
After the train crash interview with Mike Hosking, it seems certain that Luxon’s time as prime minister may have come to an end.
Show me the money! Do something I can be proud of you for showing some courage! Take a risk that some people won’t like you for taking a tough decision. Stand up and take control. Stop being a nothing.
Politicians need allies and they need factions. Those are the people others have to go through to get to the king. Does Christopher Luxon have any loyalists?
Luxon has already lost those he has shafted and now he is losing those who will lose their seats because he is so unpopular.
