So you are talking about coup?  The forced removal of a legitimate government by civil unrest?

You obviously view our times through a much darker lens than most.

Have you already forgotten the events that our previous government navigated during their time in power without dissolving into choas? A major terrorist attack (Christchurch mosque shootings), a tourist disaster (White Island eruption), an worldwide pandemic (COVID19), numerous climatic disasters (Auckland, Cyclones Gabrielle & Hale), and an increasing level of personal threats to its MPs, but still we came out of that government's period of leadership with one of the strongest economic position in the OECD.

My inclusion of NAF's Treaty of Waitangi approach was to highlight the fact that they are adding to the potential shitstorms that they may (will) need to navigate through during their current term by way of their own actions. We are already witnessing a divergence of public support of them and as yet they have done little more than slash and burn existing policies. Once they start introducing whatever patchwork of money raising schemes to address the income streams they are dismantling things will get pretty toxic in our corner of the South Pacific. International instability due to the current conflicts together with the likelihood of another Trump presidency just fuels that potential fire even more. Add a natural disaster or two and another pandemic and this coalition of narcissistic clowns will fly apart in a shower of shit.

I'm not at all sure this govt would be able to cope with another natural disaster; they're surely not easy for any govt & this being a coalition wouldn't make things any easier. It seems unlikely the ACT party would be in favour of helping to any great extent & might drag the chain if they think they can.
