tfw falling for the media talk about a LAB/GRN/NZF coalition and rethinking my Whinnie vote.

I hear ya. Willing to take the chance though because without him theres no hope at all.

hahahaha

FAGS

his bottom lines are prob not to radical for nat to agree to most of them

Good point. Anything to curb immigration significantly will make it worth it for me the rest ill live with.

I don't think lab would give into smacking and maori seat referendum either

I'm just a single issue voter for immigration but L/NZF or L/G/NZF will end up with his reform swept under the rug while he wastes money fixing north island rails to dead towns.

True would seem to go against their base although i never trust the nats where maori issues are concerned.

backbenchers in the caucus and the delegates are starting to get rather twitchy about iwi control

I hope hes not silly enough to do that. He and the left combined could spend us even further in debt.

Really? About time and twenty years late to not see these problems coming.

It's Winnies last shot. He'll sell out to get a nice title in cabinet.

Still i can't bring myself to vote for man hating labour even if national are cancer.

He's just appealing to his electorate and vote base but pretending it's the 1890's and putting in a railway isn't going to bring industry back.

most party members and back benchers want the 05 policy on maoris back and felt betrayed a bit by john bringing maori into government when he said he would end the

They're not man hating any more, david cuntlips is goneburgers.

Hope youre wrong. Labour/greens i cant do either.

Rail upgrades to major centres im not opposed to though its harmful to truckies. Roading has suffered ive come to realise.

Im reassured to read that. Had long given up hope of them reigning in anything maori related.

The main problem with roading is NZTA's tender contracting system. Tenders are evaluated with a bias towards quality over price, but all the major contractors are pretty much identical so they always come down to cost. Roading companies run them at a near loss to ensure they win the contract and the quality of the highways suffers as a result as they cut costs to compensate.

there was a maori at the agm who proposed scraping the abolition of the maori seats from the policy books but he got shot down so perhaps we are still on track

Huh. Had always been aware that longevity of repairs was shit and figured something dodge was going on like most people suspect.
Still think more freight could go by rail though.

under the public private partner ship the contractors have to pay for the upkeep of the road for 10 years

Nice. Youre a member i take it?

no i just have really good contacts I would join if they actually got some guts though

But they're reimbursed for what they do as outlined in their budget from the tender, even if it deviates somewhat. The problem is there's not enough money to allow them to do all the work that really needs doing. Reseals that are on the cusp of being high priority are left an extra 12 months if they miss the program cut off and go to shit in that time.

I naturally lean nats im just so dissapointed how theyve sold us this false economy based on debt and immigrants.
Would rather take the hit and live in my country than a friggin tourist village/third world resettlement scheme.

they don't want to bring migration down cause it would hit wages which would rise then they have inflation and would have to raise interest rates which would further fuck over the economy. too be honest for migration all we need is to just raise the english requirement to the max and ban all low skilled workers and that should knock out most non whites

If only. Angering china/india by not having their students is something they dont want to face either.
I say take the hit short term allow infrastructure to catch up and find things other than farming and tourism to benefit us.

There'll be a lot of pressure from the uni's themselves to allow it to continue anyway since they make so much in foreign tutition. And I guess the taxes from that and visa applications filter back.

What's it like living in a country omitted from maps and confused for a far superior one?

>wanting to be on maps so the powers that be remember to send members of the religion of peace over.

Don't worry kiwifag, all the petrol in the Trucks of Peace has been siphoned off by abbos.

what's the worst possible outcome for your next election?

Worst, realistic outcome is probably Lab/Green/NZF, if they can convince Ray Winstone to drop National. He might be swayed now Turei is gone maybe. There's only really a handful of possible outcomes. Nats + minor parties majority is pretty much dead, Lab/Greens is is pretty much dead. It seems Nats/Minors/NZF is the most likely outcome, then hung parliament and LAB/NZF are maybe equal odds.
