David interesting stats.
Would it be fair to say that all 3 of the left leaning parties are becoming more extreme and moving to far left?
Would it also be fair to say that labours share of the vote is being swallowed up by the more radical extreme far left parties?
Would it also be fair to say that the rhetoric coming from all 3 of the far left parties is more extreme than ever before?
What is needed is a binding referendum on the racist Maori seats. If the Maori Party do not become less racist they will not make the 5%.
Yes ... and we need it tomorrow. Mr Luxon, are you listening? These gratuitious seats are a historic anomaly that should have been gone when MMP was introduced and keeping them beyond their is damaging New Zealand and makes a complete mockery of proportional representation.
