Stabcinder did....

The next Labour prime minister must reign with a softer heart and a harder head.
He must trust New Zealanders with the full extent of what has morphed into a hidden agenda on co-governance, rather than disguise the impact of change under a mountain of spin.
He must be hard-headed enough to face up to Labour’s powerful Māori caucus and take all New Zealanders into his confidence by sharing what’s in store with what is, in fact,
a constitutional revolution.
Right now the Government has alienated too many people with its parliamentary stealth tactics over Three Waters in particular.
This is not what New Zealanders expected when Jacinda Ardern promised at the 2017 election that she would run an open and transparent government.www.nzherald.co.nz/business/fran-osullivan-next-pm-needs-a-softer-heart-and-a-harder-head/U37QSIZNLBHQFFP5YLS5GOMREY/

Grant sheltering from his electorate by becoming a list only mp....how badly do they think labour will lose the popular vote?
Now labour won't have worry about winning the election and him losing his seat
and he won't have to worry about winning his seat and labour losing the election

"It’s no secret that senior businesspeople have been exasperated that the Labour Government has been pursuing a major policy reform agenda during, first, a global pandemic, and second, a cost-of-living crisis.
Expectations are riding high that the new Prime Minister is, in fact, about to take an axe to controversial policies like the Three Waters reforms, the TVNZ-RNZ merger and a $3.5 billion income insurance scheme that will be funded through a 2.77 per cent annual levy split equally between employees and employers.
The critical fallacy is to assume that the new Labour Cabinet will in fact axe such policies altogether, rather than simply pause work on implementing them until after the October 14 election — that’s assuming Labour can cobble together the next Government."
as with other Labour-driven State-centralised projects including the health and the Three Waters reforms — is of a focus too much on building grand bureaucratic edifices rather than achieving quick productivity boosts through other mechanisms to achieve better education outcomes, improved patient health dividends and improved water infrastructure.
He has a difficult road ahead.
The business response would be to rip the plaster off and axe all three policies.
But Hipkins is a politician.

yet another reminder of Mahuta the looter's blatant disregard for parliamentary rules thebfd.co.nz/2023/01/29/deceptions-of-the-day/While everyone was watching the horrific flooding in Auckland and Northland, the New Zealand Herald quietly dropped a paywalled bomb.The article exposes that Minister Nanaia Mahuta was being warned not to entrench parts of Three Waters as far back as November 2021.So there was some planning. But then, Mahuta met with Green MP Eugenie Sage on 27 October 2022 to discuss the entrenchment, but didn’t detail this in her published diary.Local government spokesman for National Simon Watts says as Mahuta was briefed by officials prior, the meeting should have been in the public diary.and Tipa Mahuta’s role specifically excludes advising the minister, yet Mahuta met with her at least twice in ministerial meetings last year.
and this from the comments therein Did she lie?
Should she be sacked?
Who knew what was happening, and when?
Was the Government deceived or did it do the deceiving?
In many ways none of these questions matter.
We are dealing with people who simply don't care. They operate to a different set of criteria to those of us commenting; they don't see the need to follow the rules they agreed to; they don't care if they are caught; they see these types of "revelations" as just a hiccough, a small bump in the road, not a major catastrophe.
And it is not limited to Ardern, Mahuta, Hipkins or Robertson. Or any particular member of the Greens, or any particular member of National or the Maori Party or ACT.
They, all of them, live in world in which personal and political relationships traverse party lines and the lines between parliament and the media. A completely self-contained bubble of intrigue, scheming and "reporting". And this bubble has no need for us, the public; Michael Wood made that abundantly clear.
They are not, and have no need to be, "situationally aware", to be cognisant of their surroundings. Because their world is limited to their individual positions within the aforementioned bubble. That is all they care about. The rest is incidental, a minor inconvenience. A gnat to be flicked away.
They are not so much arrogant as blasé.
They cannot be reasoned with because they are un-reason-able.
They cannot be met because there is nothing there to meet.
They are empty shells most likely unaware that they have even been born.
They simply don't care.
And we, the public, need to stop treating them as if they do. Only then can we make progress. |

Nah!... He's just pulled the leftie swing voters back. They are living in la-la land!
As soon as Chumpkins does anything he will automatically be a hypocrite, after all he is undoing Stalinda policies, policies which he was part of.
Then there's is the judgement of what he actually gets done.... Fuck all so far... and he will compromise his Maori caucus, the greens and the lefties.... So he's fucked which ever way he goes .... Having said all that...50% of kiwis are thicko fucktards so roll the dice...
The country is ruled by nut job, leftie, looney, LBGTXYZ, green, anti free speech, mouthy, minorities!

on the rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic cabinet reshuffle, from Kiwiblog www.kiwiblog.co.nz/2023/02/ministers_have_changed_but_will_policies.html#commentsMinisters have changed but will policies?
The new Hipkins Ministry has made what are generally sensible changes, especially moving Mahuta from Local Government and Little from Health. But the key question is whether policies will change, or merely Ministers?
Will Jan Tinetti as Minister of Education implement policies to improve the abysmal attendance rates of student, and reverse the decline in literacy and numeracy standards?
Will Michael Wood slow down Auckland or speed it up?
Will Ayesha Verrall put in place health targets that will see ED and cancer waiting times decline?
Will Stuart Nash deliver the 1,800 extra police he promised by 2020?
Will Kieran McAnuty change Three Waters so it has accountability to the public?from Cam Slater thebfd.co.nz/2023/02/01/labours-talent-pool-rather-shallow/a sample I guess Michael Wood has got his “river of filth”. Hipkins however ignores all the demonstrable failures from Michael Wood’s ministries, most notably his unmitigated disasters in Transport with the failed bike bridge, the non-existent light rail project through his own electorate, roading carnage and mayhem with potholes and road failures, not to mention the expensive white elephant train to Hamilton.
Now Little Napoleon gets to screw over Auckland. I can’t wait to see his first meeting with Wayne Brown.Also remember Wood's conflict of interest with his wife on Auckland Council. No sign of any pause in the 3/5 waters waka www.threewaters.govt.nz/news/chief-executives-for-water-services-entities-confirmed/ |

Any thoughts on the minister of filth now becoming the minister for Auckland, while his wife is also an Auckland councillor. I'm sure Mr Brown is looking forward to dealing with them...
Sounds like light rail is already being canned which is good as the tunneled option was a gold plated mega budget sucker leaving nothing for any other projects.
Seems like they're taking a lot of the blue teams ammo away.

Seems like they're taking a lot of the blue teams ammo away. There are still ~250 people working on the light rail project.... The total cluster this week on the Auckland school closures is yet again proof that nothing has changed, they still could not organise a piss up in a brewery |

Seems like they're taking a lot of the blue teams ammo away. The blue team haven't actually done or said anything. They are just waiting for the red team to fail. Take away adern's toxicity, then take away the blue teams ammo. Its like politics 101. The man with a tit for a head could well be the leader of the opposition through until 2027. |
