@DodgyKnee @ArrestJK It's interesting the way Newshub framed it as "Labour leader CH breaks protocol to call for ceasefire". I'm not sure what protocol was broken. He sought support from incoming govt that was refused so he made the call as Labour Party leader. Apart from being the very basic humanity response this call along with the new CGT/Wealth Tax policies will probably stand Chippy and Labour in a far better position for the upcoming #NZPol early 2024 #NZElection.

To avoid post #nzelection depression I'm trying g very hard not to engage with "what if's" and only look at confirmed facts.
Having said that, #ACT's proposed #referendum is giving me the shits.

If the special votes are similar to 2017 (more similar to 2023 than 2020s results) this is how the seats could fall. National would lose 3. Lab and Greens each pick up one and there'd be a slightly smaller overhang #nzelection #nzpol

#ShowerThoughts: I wonder how many more votes the Leighton Baker Party would have got in the #NZelection, if he'd called it the Bacon Later Party instead?

Chris Hipkins sacrificed climate justice and economic justice in vain pursuit of centre-right votes Labour was never going to keep after 2020. First came the bonfire of climate policies, now comes the bonfire of votes. He must go. #nzpol #nzelection

I got a notification from #RNZ calling the #election, and when I clicked through to the story, only 6% of the vote had been counted.
STOP DOING THIS!

Twilight across the valley, from my balcony a few evenings ago.

Election night, so I get to watch what the rest of the country did with their votes…🫣

Maybe I’ll focus on a movie and a new beer: a strong ‘Mexi-Coco’ porter (9.3%!), brewed with cacao nibs+red chillies+vanilla+cinnamon. Sounds good😊

Today is the New Zealand general election, with 17 parties fighting for the 120 seats in Parliament. Under Mixed-member proportional representation (MMP), voters get two votes; one to decide the representative for their single-seat constituency and one for a party. #NZElection
