This country has become more divided than ever and we are facing a wave of reverse racism.
I hope winston has a good chance of getting re-elected back into govt or else the only other option is to go for ACT.
The state of this country is the worst its ever been, we need change desperately, another 3 years with labour running the show would be depressing.
I thought "Yay! Winnie's back". He's getting a bit long in the tooth now, but might be exactly what we need. At least he will try to balance the slippery slope we're on with regards to increasing racism all the time and he always brings a level of common sense to the table, even if he can't be trusted to follow through. It could backfire though if a new lease of life from NZ First just takes voters from National and Act.

Blaming everything that is wrong with the country solely on the present labour government is a mistake imho. A lot of NZs present woes have been in the making for decades, or a result of global economic influences... But I don't think it will be a cake walk for labour this time around...
We have a cycle where every time Labour is in power everything gets stuffed up, then when National comes back they have to make unpopular decisions and just start to make headway when they get voted out again. At present most of what is seriously wrong is down to Labour's current or past influence. They did a good job at the beginning of the pandemic but that has fallen by the way, and pretty much everything else related to governance is a total mess.
