Triennial Governmental Election. The outcome was pretty much as expected , the incumbent National Party won with 60 out of the total 121 seats , and have several single MP minor parties aligning with them to give a majority. The minor Parties did well at the expense of the other large party , Labour. Probably too many folk still have bad memories of Labours Helen Clarke years. Not that you should ever trust any politicians.... ________________________ Old enough to know better | ||

Thats harsh TP  NZ's politics are entirely dictated and directed by the World Bank anyway so it doesnt really make much differance who is in power. I think too many people still have bad memories of the Clarke years and her dictatorship , the huge increase in the Public Service in her tenure , and the imposition of far too many rules on peoples personal lives. And thats without mention of filling the seats of power with single , childless , and in many cases lesbian , women. The social cost of the previous Labour Govt in NZ was totally the reason they got kicked out . Governments dont win elections in NZ - they lose them , and nothing is more certain than this current regime will lose the next time round. Govts get into power cos we want a change , then they get arrogant and ignore what we want and so they get booted out . 3 terms is the max for any party in the last 50 years . ________________________ Old enough to know better | |||
