OPINION
According to the Minor Parties Debate, Act Leader David Seymour does not want to be ‘Brothers in Arms’ with NZ First’s Winston Peters at this juncture. Jenna Lynch-Mob (Lynch) after the debate opined that for someone who hated Winston Peters so much David Seymour was actually a low-rent Winston Peters. I would like to know who writes her lines. One Radio announcer suggested a cage fight might settle it.
If Seymour cannot work with Winston Peters neither can a conga line of five Act delegates work with Seymour either. No explanation is forthcoming.
This is a clear case of the pot calling the kettle black from Seymour.
‘Brothers in Arms” is incidentally a Dire Straits song. I suspect Seymour’s ego has something to do with his petulance. After all, Peters is being treated as the ‘Second Coming’. Which may well be true.
The Verian poll shows Peters is only one point behind Seymour in the Preferred PM stakes, and in the Guardian Essentials Poll NZ First gets 6% of the popular vote. The Verian poll gives Act 12% which means NZ First has half the popular vote of Act. Not bad for a party that has not been in parliament this term.
The Minor Parties Debate was not complete without a ‘Thelma and Louise” night out with Davidson and Packer. (Thanks Frank the Tank)
As usual, Davidson wanted ‘Money For Nothing’, the title of another Dire Straits song. The money for nothing would come from the Wealth Tax or Envy Tax as it is known. Winston managed to squeeze in that some Maori Organisations are not taxed so the Wealth Tax would not affect them.
The Chaos Coalition have found something else to harp on about other than fiscal holes. They are warning us all that Seymour and Peters will run rings around Luxon if elected, as if Luxon is a total dullard – which he probably is.
The Chaos Coalition should know all about running rings around Luxon as they did it themselves. They lassoed him into not having a bar of protestors outside parliament, climate change nonsense and men in women’s toilets, amongst other follies no doubt. This looked like the Uniparty rather than the Opposition.
If you are looking for heavenly portents as to who will win the election there has already been one. On the last two days of Parliament, a supermoon was seen. This is a huge full moon which occurs twice in the same month.
It appears huge because it is closer to the earth than usual. This is relatively rare and hence the saying “Once in a blue moon”. The next supermoon is in 2037. We can only hope that in the next parliament we won’t be hampered by the media gaslighting us constantly. Perhaps this is why we need a Supermoon.
Who will be Lord of the Rings of Middle Earth after the election?
Can Tolkien come up with a happy ending on October 14th?
