If Labour are talking to NZF they're making a big error.
Not only does it legitimise the perception that Winston in the centre (to the gullible) and could go both ways, it will strengthen his bargaining power.
The 2017 'handbrake' will seem mild.
This guy is now buddies with Farage.

My dad who had as accurate personal radar as @foxylustygrover.bsky.social 's dad didn't trust Andrew Little from day one.
I thought he was being harsh but he wasn't.
Little only got one thing right, standing down as leader, as I'm not convinced it was entirely his call.

Sorry to rain on the outrage parade but seriously, at the core of all of this is a fundamental distrust in MMP
Treating electorate MPs as "real MPs" vs list MPs as "not really elected" is a framing that undermines proportional representation
Stop bloody buying into it
