    Honestly, a lot of the positions he takes are quite reasonable, and he’s pushed back on some pretty stupid suggestions from Act during this term.

    Shutting down any suggestions of privatising the ferries, for example.

    I can see why younger people would support him.

      NZF are a party for the average person. They exist to support whatever ideas people want.

      This is both good and bad. Good because when there is wide support for a good thing, NZF will jump on the bandwagon to get some votes. It’s bad because the average person is an idiot, and people get dumber in groups.
