National-lite!

Heh after a year or two of National being called Labour-lite, the Greens are calling David Shearer National-lite.

Dr Norman played up the link, saying it meant he himself was the only “progressive” candidate on offer.

“The right of the party – the Goff faction – have got their man. Labour have chosen the grey machine man. I’m sure he’s a very nice guy, but it means we’ve got National versus National-lite versus the Greens.”

Actually in terms of privatisation, he could be called ACT-lite or even Libertarianz-lite 🙂
