Regime to restart tenure review; privatise the high country to its donors and cronies so they can make mega-profits

This is possibly the only good thing WP ever did. Good of the PM to point it out. #nzpol

Central is unispiring?

He must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

Was the price of Luxon remaining in the role the freeing of Nat MPs to attack NZ1?

Winston attacking National first (probably a tip off from Meager or whoever his source is) followed by Willis going after NZ1 this morning.

Hope it is and that they take each other down.

From around 5.20 on that interview.

Willis was having a go a Labour for "getting into bed with" NZ1 🤡

Weekly Political Panel: Nicola Willis and Tangi Utikere Nicola Willis and Tangi Utikere joined Morning Report this morning for the Weekly Political Panel.

From 1.38

a man with long hair and a beard is giving a thumbs up and the words fight fight fight are above him ALT: a man with long hair and a beard is giving a thumbs up and the words fight fight fight are above him

Willis had a direct go at him on Morning Report, "I tell you what invites instability, a vote for Winston Peters".

Cartoon. Title: “Levels” Image shows PM Christopher Luxon in the foreground, hugging a petrol drum, with his eyeball to the spout, and petrol fumes coming up around his face. Finance Minister Nicola Willis is in the background, her hands clamped to her face, exclaiming, “OMG, Christopher! Huffing the fumes! This is next level!” PM Luxon is saying, “Sniff! No, Nicola, It’s still Level One, and I’m feeling VERY relaxed about it…’

Between the fuel crisis and the leadership vote PM Christopher Luxon has been doing some deep breathing.

ICYMI — new HUNGARY 🇭🇺 PM Magyar says Netanyahu will be arrested if he goes to Hungary

Thats great but he really should've known how to do these things before becoming Prime Minister.

EggBurger

Mould Burger.

PM who actively avoids certain journalists chides the press for not asking him harder questions. Then walks away refusing to answer their questions.

How someone that profited from being a mercenary in Iraq can be deemed the most relatable (of the Nats) is beyond me.

Stuart Smith now refusing to go to the caucus meeting.

"Junior Whip Suze Redmayne said she had “no idea” if a leadership vote would take place, and dodged reporters ahead of the meeting."

Strong team.

That some of the opinion writers say this guy is the likeable one in the Nats and that he has become a serious contender as leader shows how far they've fallen.

Out on the open sea the National mini speed boat has its engine clunking in the air as it gets pulled down by a huge anchor. The anchor is a rusty Luxon head shouting, "IM NOT GOING ANYWHERE!" Chris Bishop is pleading with him to let go, Nicola Willis clings to Bishop, Simeon is trying to stop the boat from sinking with a trusted bucket and Tama is at the back trying to start the engine. It's a shit show.

My cartoon in today's www.thepost.co.nz/topics/post-...

The anchor is dragging the National Party down...

For fucking once the media mentions climate change because it's an insurance company talking and they don't paper over the cracks

If only we had a gov making things better rather than taking us backwards #nzpol

Thanks for bringing this to Bluesky from wherever it came.

TBF Jacinda did this as well.

With luck the new 'leader' will not grovel enough for Peters and we may get an early election with coalition in fighting.

Stop the count.

If Old Mate Grabaseat had been nicer to the pilots one of them might be able to give him some guidance about nosedives

I guess there's still some remnants of the blokey thing, G O'Connor, but the days having the 3 aforementioned, Mallard and JT being prominent seem to be a thing of the past - more an issue for NZ1 now. I hope.

Which is good because as you say Greens won't be in govt if Labour aren't.

I've been a Green voter pretty much always so not the best qualified to talk about Labour.

Having said that I like a lot of what I've heard of some of the newer MPs like Vanushi Walters, Arena Williams and Camilla Belich much more than the more blokey old boys like Cosgrove, Jones and Nash.

Whoof, the Greens are really gunning for Luxon with that slogan!

*hand to earpiece*

I am informed they were talking about something different. #nzpol
