Chippy’s Minder
Trevor Mallard kept Owen Glenn away from Helen Clark in 2008. On Saturday he was stepping between Chris Hipkins and a heckler at Ōtara. Some people never change jobs.
NZ First
Quick Hit: Three Point Four Billion. Familiar Labels.
Fonterra’s $3.4 billion year came with a $1.2 billion one-off from selling Anchor and Mainland to France’s Lactalis. Farmers banked the cheque, and the butter still costs what it costs.
Quick Hit: Make NZ Healthy
NZ First Make NZ Healthy: prevention over medicines that manage decline and sell another Pharmac cheque. Nutrition curriculum, metabolic health, written consent, GP autonomy, Medsafe/Pharmac barriers, Vit D and IV C trials are selling a different destination.
The Letter National and NZ First Didn’t Want to Receive
The Waitangi Tribunal was never intended to exist indefinitely. It is time for our elected government to step up, complete the settlement process, and unite New Zealand with equal rights for all citizens.
Giant Douche. Turd Sandwich. Take Your Pick.
Every leader underwater. Luxon worst at 54/25. Hipkins ahead on seven of eight. Ardern still the only net favourable figure. South Park already named the ballot.
He Wouldn’t Say The Number. Now We Know Why.
Hipkins sold an above-30 comfort blanket and would not read the figure. Anacta just printed Labour 31, National 30. Show me the numbers. He had them.
Hung. Both Under Thirty. Still Demanding Your Party Vote.
Both majors under 30. Hung Parliament. National still wants your party vote while it buys zero list MPs.
Wind It Up Or Make It Binding.
One side wants a finish line. The other wants an unelected veto. Wind it up or watch them put it above you.
Still No List MPs. Still No Answer.
Both majors under 30. National 135k short of one list MP. Still selling two ticks blue. The honest National vote is electorate vote National and party vote ACT or NZ First.
Voters Are Not Soldiers. Then He Ordered Them.
Hehir says voters are not soldiers. Then he sells Two Ticks Blue. National already treats the base like automatons. I know. The shunning still applies.
The First One-Term National PM Since 1975. Unless.
Say Mowbray’s line out loud or sit with Rowling. Electorate National. Party ACT or NZ First. MMP is built for it.
Hung. And Hipkins Still Has a Job.
Eight-point lead. Hung parliament. Opportunity at 9.5% and holding the knife. The gallery built the Trojan horse. Labour on 24. Hipkins still has a job.
Non-Negotiable and Impossible
He will not pay. He will not leave. He cannot explain. The Americans already walked. The shelves did not empty.
Quick Hit: Two Ticks. Luxon Out.
The neutrality finding is the CV. Two ticks New Zealand First. Vote Luxon out.
Not a Citizen? Then Don’t Vote
Winston is right. The vote is for citizens. Welfare, pensions and health should be next.
