No worries, the corporate buddies are already talking up 'the economy' and something called 'green shoots'. Come next year, Luxon and his mates will throw a few crumbs at the voters (another tax cut, perhaps?), who will gratefully put them back in charge. Short memory & all that!
Depressing!

Isn't he the government?

⭐⭐⭐+⭐⭐⭐

Then he should resign forthwith. He's a Māori, isn't he?

Holding on to 'nothing' to boost confidence, maybe?

This stupid government's water reform is nothing more than a spiteful response to a perfectly good, future-proof '3 waters' scheme.
But then, that's what this government has done with everything the previous government did, with nothing workable or useful to replace them.
Plain vandalism!

Holding or strangling?

Yeah, Mini Trump (NZ version) effervescent over meeting 'MAGA' Trump!

Agree, but first you have to be elected to govern. Strangely, with New Zealand voters 'tax' seems to be a dirty word. They want the govt. to provide all the services, but no one wants to pay tax. The contradiction is mind-boggling! So the political left has to tread gently, small steps forward!

Don't know who they're representing - trying hard to be National-lite.
