Who will win the New Zealand elections

[Platypus]

i'm an aussie, and suggest you lok at my farce! thread

I thought that NZ Labour was actually pretty left? Maybe that was just when it was in coalition with the greens. Either way, they'll win. the Nats are just too far gone.

I'm working for my local member, Michael Danby (ALP) this election. Not because I like Latham, or like him (although he's a great bloke, coincidentallY) but because I am so sick of Hoard. He's been PM for my whole politically aware life, from about 8-9 (he's been in power since 1996)-almost half my life.


We need a socially progressive government, and we need it niow. And that's why i'm going to help get rid of Howard.

Anyway, soprry to hijack the thread, back to New Zealand.

Guv hir my bust wishas.



I like New Zelanders, and they do say 'Wikkad luts!'

especially when they ask 'fur sux dullas wuth if fush an chups'

remember that half of New Zealand is in Australia collecting welfare, so....


I'll end this post on a positive note-us antipodeans really so like each other. The whole ANZAC spitrit thing. Good to know there is sorta-another one here.
