New Zealand Election 2017

[Pericles]

We still have to wait till the 12th until we know who WINston will go with.


Please let it be Labour...

[Pericles]

ACT is irrelevant as they would never be part of a National-NZ First coalition, due to the mutual hatred between ACT and Winston Peters.

[Pericles]

Note with Winston Peters and the Maori seats that he claimed during the campaign that having a referendum on abolishing the seats was a 'bottom line' for him, but that may no longer be the case. Peters argued there may no longer need to be a referendum because the Maori Party is no longer in parliament(he hates the Maori Party too), saying that "And so some of the elements to the environment which the promise was made have since changed - that's all I can say."

My gut feeling right now is that WINston will go with Labour.

I think so too, though it's 50-50(though I'd be fine if you said it was 60-40 either way).

Winston went with Labour. Greens are in cabinet.  Ardennes has spoken and addressed the nation, 'honored to be PM'.
