Watched Minor Party Leaders debate; key takeaways for me:

*Marama Davidson took the night: poised, authentic, knowledgeable.
* Seymour’s policy agenda is libertarian nonsense dogma - that when challenged, exposes its disconnect from reality. This man should not be anywhere near the levers of power.
* Winston Peters “I’m the only adult in the room” schtick is very tired. Davidson, in particular, showed up Peters inherent fractiousness and overly simplistic ‘solutions’.

@NZedAUS I've interviewed Marama in the past and she works extremely hard to be across policy and the issues. Also, she's a lovely person :-)
@jdmcg yes a good human being and, as you observe, very diligent.
