I know who I’m going to vote for in the local elections and I might also vote in the general election, depending.

That doesn’t mean I’ll watch TV and get up to date with which hot spicy pajeeta babe Hipkins and Luxon are dancing with. I don’t care about the news or policies, I’m going to vote in council elections based on what I know about the candidates and their voting record. Simple as.

In the general election I’m only going to vote based on loyalty and connections - whoever I think genuinely represents people at the bottom. Most candidates will only give you a dry boring response if you ask them a question. It’s not enough for me.

    Not one of them will do the country any good. They are the darlings of the media, they post no threat to the system.

      Who in your opinion is a threat to the system and why do you want somebody who is a threat to the system to be in charge of the system?

        I’m tired of hearing the same nonsense every 3 years. Nothing changes, so I’m going to vote for Kelvyn Alp and anyone else who’s willing to put their foot in their opponent’s arse.
