So what will happen to the eternal 40% or so NZ tory type vote? I guess the boomer replacement generations will have their say in 2023 and 2026. And, will the Nats continue to gift Epsom seat to ACT?<br /><br />My instinct is it will be a Labour/Green MMP Govt. in 2023 with Nats flat lining and an increased ACT vote thanks to the Incels, gun lovers, ute drivers and others Mr Seymour seems to be courting. We are in the midst of actual climate disaster, so surely someone is going to seriously suggest rolling back the NZ neo liberal state. This is when it will get interesting.Tiger Mountainnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-14007762705794913262021-08-11T11:29:11.358+12:002021-08-11T11:29:11.358+12:00Someone on National's board has been working t...Someone on National's board has been working to ensure that there are candidates who will do the bidding of a branch of a South African-based Italian mafia clan for more than a decade.
