Aw man what the fuck really? Come on guys. I was thinking of bailing out to Middle Earth, and now this??? Gotta take it off the list now :(
These guys are so unpopular, it is looking likely that we will have the first one term government for a very long time.
They have fucked up the economy really badly, they are trying to accelerate privatization of state assets (roading, education etc...) which is deeply unpopular, most kiwis think the selling of the power companies, banks and insurance companies in the past were mistakes.
That's the only thing that'll potentially save us - just how bad they are at running the economy. But you have to keep an eye on polling which still shows the majority of our voters trust National on the economy more than Labour.
Plus Act & National have a huge amount of money from the real estate & landlord grifters who are going to dump it in yet again to fight against CGT which Labour will have to go with some form of to keep their own voters on side.
