The shit show that is NZ’s right wing politics.
Right wing politics in NZ is quite simply dysfunctional.
There is a serious lack of cohesion amongst the various factions that make up the right, there is an underlying fear from right wing voters, people are scared to speak out at the risk of being branded a racist, a nazi or which ever indenty political buzz word is favored by the left.
Right wing politics in NZ is made up of the following.
1/ Battered baby boomers.
2/ Confused Christians.
3/ Jordan Peterson fan boys.
4/ A small sprinkling of overweight far right storm troopers.
As a overweight, far right storm trooper myself, I recently had the pleasure of encountering both 1, 2 & 3 attempting to organize the anti UN Migrant pact held on Feb 2.
A quasi yellow vest, not a yellow vest, anti climate change, anti UN, baby boomer day out, shit fest….Quite simply a fail.
Organized & financed solely by Concerned Ant, a Battered Baby Boomer with anxiety issues, boardline schizophrenic who seemed to jump at ‘ghosts’ out to get her.
Her minion, a young, impressionable and easily influenced tradie desperate to make a name for himself within political circles was left just as dismayed as i was of the prospects of getting a rally off the ground.
When i intially questioned Concerned Ant’s motives of monetizing a political movement for profit, i hit a nerve. As a result of one of my tweets she didn’t agree with I swiftly found myself on the outside for decisive behavior, kicked out of her organsing groups, blocked and banned from every NZ Sovereignty social media account without any explanation.
When i raised my concerns with her lackey, it was soon clear that this poor lad had been manipulated by his senior, pushed out infront of her movement as a ‘spokesperson’ that could be throw in front of the bus if it all went pear shaped.
This was NZ grass roots right wing activism at its finest…they meant well, they just lacked the capability and networks to pull it off.
NZ’s right wing Political parties almost resemble the shambles discribed above.
For example, following a bust up with the recently rebranded New Conservatives over Maori separatism, real estate agent turned politician Paul Davies, went rogue forming his own party “One New Zealand”.
Before this party could get of the ground, it descended into a chaos, splitting off into two, the ‘un official’ and ‘official’ One New Zealand Party.
By airing out his dirty laundry, it become evident Paul Davies party was dead before it started, swiftly rebranded under the leadership of Andy Oakley.
The mainstream parties of the right aren’t doing much better.
National, after 9 years as a center right party under john key, which shifted further and further left with globalist undertones, now seems visionless under Simon Bridges with an inability to identify with right wing, conservative voters.
Alas, we are left with ACT, basically labour without the benefit.
How this party is still alive is anyone’s guess, it almost seems they have an offshore Millionaire benefactor willing to drop $100k into party coffers each year just to keep it afloat to sure up his business interests back home.
New Zealand desperately needs a cohesive, structured right thinking party with commonsense policy.
Given the amount of fumbles at the hands of this current concoction of socialists, an organsined, talented right wing party would be running rings around the government.
Right wing voters live in hope that we’ll see the rise of a charismatic, articulate leader who can rally the right before 2020.
The alternative for NZ is further descent into a dysfunctional mess allowing the left to tighten its socialist grip on power, while sending this nation further down the turd chute.
Would NZ’s real trump please stand up.
