Watching The Nation yesterday I wasn't impressed by the ACT one either.
Just as well I am a loyal Green. Makes choosing very easy.

I think it's just Winnie trying to be clever - gathering votes from the idiots by making it look like he supports them. That candidate is not going to be successful in the BoP electorate, and on the party list I'm sure she will be far enough down to not get in the way.

So...the Knights Templar, AND the Nazis AND the Swiss govt were all undertaken by the 'New World Order" according to one Winston possible supporter.
Why yes,nothing odd about that at all, makes perfect sense.
When the state of our health system is considered.

Winston is polling close to 6% currently and he will likely return to govt.
I may end up giving him my vote, or else I would have gone with ACT.
I know Seymour is not happy about it either, but if we want a change of govt and they are in a situation where they need winston, then they have no option but to work together.

As someone so eloquently tweeted "We need an anti-vaxxer kingmaker like we need a dose of the clap".

The problem though is he cannot be trusted. He promises to support policies in order to come into power on coattails and then turns on his partners in order to take over. Which is why most political partners are very reluctant to gave anything to do with him. Pity the voting public don't feel the same about the entertaining old rogue.
RE: Winston is scraping the barrel for candidates - Lilith7 - 14-08-2023
You'd think that, in view of his past behaviour when working with political partners, most voters would be far more wary of voting for him. Perhaps this time round, some of those he's allegedly open to partnering with might just be enough to put people off voting for him.

Hes not antivax, he had the jab himself, he openly said so publicly.
He also wants to conduct a commission of inquiry into the covid response and the mandates, etc.

the problem is the influence of those with whom he has surrounded himself...
