Tweedledum or Tweedledee

It would appear; going by all the polls, that the Labour led government is toast come the next election.

But is it a new found affection for National that sees it some 15 per cent ahead in most polls or is it a rejection of tired, dejected Labour party mired in sleaze and discontent?

It’s hard to believe that people are moving to National, the party offers nothing that Labour has not already provided. A “me to party” providing nothing new and telling voters that they will continue to stay with the failed policies of the current administration. This hardly seems to be a recipe to get our country back amongst the top performers in the OECD. In the past National have always signed up to Labour’s policies why will this time be any different especially as John Key has already demonstrated that he is New Zealand’s second most flexible politician.

There seems that there is no party that Kiwis actually want to vote for and they will end up voting for the Nats because they are not Labour. It’s about time that the electorate got an opportunity to vote for a party that actually provided solutions to our problems of the day, poor healthcare, poor education, high crime rates, high cost of housing and high interest rates.
