National’s goal is to make us just like Australia, except for the high wages, capital gains tax and 9% employer super-payments.

The Labour/New Zealand First/green axis sounds like a bit of a mouthful.

How about the “Axis of Idiocy”?

If NZ were to elect a L/NZF/G Govt, I can only hope that Australia would view such an act of mass mental incompetence charitably, treat like the retarded kid brother we are and take us under their wing.

What do you mean by that, Ryan Sproull? You mean the Labour/Green axis policies are an extraordinary load of bullshit? An intellect like yours cannot have any RESPECT for that stuff, surely?

I score ten out of ten to “Save the Humans”, for this telling little effort.

Another superb post from Kiwiblog in full election mode!

“Force everyone to take the bus or train”
= false. No-one is forcing you to do this.

“Tell families how to raise their children, and how many to have”
– why do you even bother discussing Greens’ policy, if all you can do is caricature it like this?

“Bring back all of the treaty stuff all over again”
– Yeah, the Treaty may have been a legal document that the crown, like, SIGNED… but you know, we never, like, MEANT it!

“Make all schools equally crap”
And you wonder why we have “tall poppy syndrome” and comments about “rich pricks” in this country!

“and run down public health”
– no, you’re thinking of the last National government there.

“align with dodgy countries who would never come to our aid”
Maybe that’s why people call it CHARITY???

“allow 2.3% of people (all that will vote ACT) to tell the rest of us what to do”
-oops, my bad with that one!

Oh, DPF – the Aussie flag reveals the real secret agenda!

You and John Key – closet Australians!

Well, I guess Key can play the role of this guy!

Maybe you can be Russ Hinze as his loyal assistant in your fantasy life.

There is no down side to a union with Aussie,

We get a decent currency,
We get a proper education system that is not hampered with PC crap.
We get an honourable Labour party as a govt albeit soon to be routed at the next election.
We get mineral wealth
We get a Police force that has guns as standard issue
We get rid of the treaty
We get John O’Neil instead of Steve Tew
We get a soccer team that can make the World Cup finals
We win more than two Olympic Golds
We immediately increase the standard of our woman, Aussie chicks are way hotter than ours.
We get a Parliament that acts like Adults and not kids
We get an Air Force…with real planes to fly
We get to play our part in the war on terror instead of being gutless wimps sponging off the few brave nations doing something about it.
We get a free trade deal with the Yanks
We get lower fuel prices
We get higher wages

And best of all….

We get a cricket team that actually wins!

Yes but I’m the top of the food chain so the Greens need to understand I have rights to eat anything else and referring to us as a “species” is a nice way to undermine that position.

Go for a paddle at St Clair – tell the great white sharks all about how you’re the top of the food chain.
They’ll be sooooo impressed!

(Hint: You’ll find that being the top of the food chain is more about ability than “rights”….)

Being called a “species” is all about the Green Party manipulating the population towards their twisted communist ideas

You should try being out in an estuary filled with 5 metre, 1 tonne Crocodylus porosus, or if you prefer, salties… ;). I’ve never quite felt on top of the foodchain there (and parenthetically, other areas with large carnivores partial to soft, pink snacks). Still, crocodiles have a number of virtures- they treat you with an honesty of intent that most people lack, and of course, I’m allowed to use a .44 magnum on one if it attacks me.

The point however, is that if people are no different to animals in an ethical or legal sense, then building abbatoirs for people is no different to building abbatoirs for animals. Which remains the Nazi’s peculiar contribtion to the field of animal rights.

– why do you even bother discussing Greens’ policy, if all you can do is caricature it like this?”

Thats not a caricature bud, thats a fair description. Both Sue Bradford and Russell Norman ARE telling us how to raise our children. Why don’t you and your Green Party pond scum be honest about this? So far not ONE of the GP people who have come on to this blog have had the guts to front up to the fact that in terms of discipline and numbers of children your ARE telling people what to do. Your a bunch of gutless liars.

The Aussies are taking a hammering from the Indians at the moment.

Oh well, the exception proves the rule.

The Optimist

Thanks for posting it DPF, had a lot of fun making it. The environmentalists have picked out the Aussie flag and seem to be suggesting that the idea promoted is that we become Australia. For a party with an Aussie as the leader they are mighty touchy about this point. But the flag only represents a direction, largely an economic direction.

Sadly for NZ at the moment, the first world is something we can aspire to but are not quite part of. The Aussie flag indicates the first step along that road is to catch up (again) with Aussie. We can then set our sights on better things.

Environmentalist policies are certainly not taking us forward in any sense that our children or grandchildren will appreciate.

Reading through the environmentalists’ policies it seems that the only future they see is as a world museum.

The bigger picture is that the Greens are willing to trade off economic growth for environmentalism.

They’ve made their call, because they have a faith based approach to food, transport, climate change and the like which means draconian tax, subsidy and regulatory approaches.

Could have added:
– Increase welfare state dependency
– Give the Commissioner for Children power to monitor all children all of their lives to check if parents are not treating them inappropriately
– Support EU Common Agricultural Policy and foreign countries blocking/taxing NZ exports because of “food sovereignty”

Bloody good laff and it helps to settle my ulcers when I can have a good belly-laff! 🙂

Next one should be the Maori Party’s scorecard on choosing between Labour/National…could have a lot of fun with this one too.

OECD rank 22 kiwi

The Greens want to drag humanity back into the dark ages.

Thankfully they’re not that popular in New Zealand. Unfortunately New Zealand has MMP.

Southern Raider;

I forget who made the following comment, it might have been P.j. O’Rourke:

Humans are the ONLY one of the species whose value judgements concerning OTHER species goes beyond “Is it food? Yes/no”.

I guess you’ll be pretty pissed off when ACT form a coalition with National and implement their policies, right?
