Businessman Guy Haddleton would like Christopher Luxon and Chris Hipkins to sit down together before either of them starts negotiating with any of the smaller parties. While I have no objections to the two major parties hashing out some of the gnarlier long term challenges we face, like infrastructure, our ageing population, and housing, the suggestion of any kind of Grand Coalition gives me the heebie jeebies. I know that many political tragics of either side feel similarly. We did not just endure a brutal election campaign in order to shack up with the guy we have desperately been hoping will be kept out of office.
