We are ITALIANS

I did :^)

actually took me a second ngl

what do kiwis think of jacinda so far

Too early to say anything. Ignore the
>muh taxes
neo-liberal shit heads

Is Jacinda a neoliberal?

I find it interesting that she's so young though, it's hard to think of a world leader who isn't ankle deep in the grave here

>tfw no labour+nationalist+green ruling coalition
hold me bros

>Is Jacinda a neoliberal?
No. The neo-liberal party is the NZ national party.

the thought of that gives me a stiffy
thats a shame fuck

>nationalist
NZF or national?

nz first i was describing the ruling coalition of the nz parliament

>Tfw your nationalist party sells out to the neolibs
I'd almost consider voting one nation if they didn't constantly give in and vote with LNP shit that completely goes against their policy.

Well you already have two out of three, I don't see what there's to cry about. In any case kys.

Thanks for visiting our country, madam. Now, it's our local custom for you to sit on my phallus.

I'd put her on my dick, if you get what I'm saying.

Why is New Zealand so perfect?

what the fuck?
1. only one party is in power and it's the neolib centrist liberals and they have a majority
2. we have no party like NZ first
3. coalitions aren't really a thing in Canada

I just want environmentally conscious socialists that have to share power with nationalists that shut down any SJW bullshit
it would be perfect

and four rings were given to the anglos, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings

What's Canada like politically? We don't really have a right wing left wing party.
More workers rights and socialism party vs big business and no social security party.
Their social views change a lot depending on the state.

>does nothing
>everyone claps
hmm. is everyone insane?

Same same

>No
Except she really is?
The only party that isn't really neo-liberal in nz is NZFirst.

Peters would have made a better PM

Turnbull seems the least bad.

holiest trinity de su

He fucked up our internet and built pyramids thinking it'd make it rain more often. He's an idiot who's slave to his party.

At least Abbot out anti vaxxers in their place.

>built pyramids thinking it'd make it rain more often
>At least Abbot out anti vaxxers in their place
?

can any kiwis explain the substance of the clarke gayforde rumours

>Turnbull seems the least bad.
He's literally destroying the Australian environment and infrastructure, oh and don't forget all giving those mining companies tax breaks.
He's the same as abbot but less of a bogan.
How could someone praise a politician or party that can't even get the internet to work, fuck me.

Just some tabloid bullshit, thought people are trying to spin it as "dirty politics" by National but that seems a bit far fetched.
Though I wouldn't put it past them as National has a history of talking shit to make Labour look bad.

mobile.abc.net.au/news/2007-11-20/turnbull-pumps-10m-into-rainmaking-gamble/731004

The anti vaxxer thing is policy for some jobs which now require vaccination records to be shown and up to date.

>He's the same as abbot but less of a bogan.
abbot isn't a bogan, though he loves pandering to them

is there any angle with gayford though or is it just a mess of different rumours from people that dislike him

Don't forget ruining the city trains.

Internet in regional towns is often worse now due to the fixed wireless. Before I moved I went from 6mb/s to 2 lol.

Our debt has doubled while most countries have more or less fully recovered from the financial crisis too.

Our main hope now is that lithium mining booms and we don't have another Howard to bungle it up

I voted for this

politics is a lot bigger than some small $10m research subsidy and irrelevant vaccination law

>Our debt has doubled while most countries have more or less fully recovered from the financial crisis too.
>

>abbot isn't a bogan
I mean he did eat that onion... twice.

>is there any angle with gayford though or is it just a mess of different rumours from people that dislike him
Not that I've seen, anyway why would it even matter. The dude is just some dumb radio host.

The thing I don't understand is how you guys can have such insane tax rates and get nothing from it.
We pay way lower tax rates and get free uni and decent internet, what does Australians get from their 35+% tax?

>not voting for TOP
It's almost like you don't want solar powered blimps housing weed farms.

>Don't forget ruining the city trains
I found those sydney strikes a bit hyped up desu, I was travelling across the city twice a week for work and I didn't have any trouble

Basically the money gets lose in bungled up infrastructure programs, which get handed off to Liberal 'mates' that charge a lot more than before.

Also logistically speaking you have more infrastructure challenges than most countries.

I just can't fathom how the liberals keep winning.
I'm sure your labour party sucks, but surely they can't be as bad as the blatant corruption and incompetence that has been shown in the last few years.
Every Australian I've talked to says how much they hate Turnball/Abbot yet they keep getting away with it.

because you're not talking to the average absolute fuckwit voter

nah abbot's from a pretty elitist background, it's bizarre that he always panders to bogan politics like opposing gay marriage when everyone within his family/ inner friends are completely opposite to those values

just curious about gayford because I keep seeing all these articles about the rumours but nobody's explaining what those rumours are. seems sometimes journalists get all moral and uppity about not propagating them until enough time has passed
I guess they just hate him because of all the reality television stuff and he's not some old bland cunt with nothing to pick on

>what does Australians get from their 35+% tax?
we get the distinction of subsidising foreign chinese investments here

But they have a bunch of clumped cities on the east coast.
In reality the area of Australia that substantially inhabited enough for infrastructure to be worth building isn't actually that big.

probably true, thank god for that I guess.
I was exposed to so much cancer during that stupid marriage referendum
what a massive waste of money

>just curious about gayford because I keep seeing all these articles about the rumours but nobody's explaining what those rumours are
I can almost guarantee it's just cancer, New Zealand news is fucking awful... but I guess not as bad as Murdoch owned shit in Australia.
At least we have a really good state-run news place.

>we get the distinction of subsidising foreign chinese investments here
I mean is there really a difference between that and a domestic firm at this point desu?

because labor is just truly fucked
bill shorten is the most unlikeable guy imaginable, while the core of his policies just mirror the liberals (unless he thinks he can win marginal voters, then he changes stance)

Someone just needs to nuke your country and start all over.
I feel so bad for you guys, knowing that everybody around you is literally retarded and screwing you over.

>I mean is there really a difference between that and a domestic firm at this point desu?
nope, seems a fair amount of """""""domestic""""""" firms are just naturalised chinese citizens, at least in sydney
yeah it's upsetting
I despise shorten but I kind of hope he wins an outright majority next election so he can get ruthlessly exposed when he fails to please to everyone. if he only achieved half of what he says he will it would be alright, at least the environment could get a boost
it's upsetting because if you want nationalist policies you can only vote for pauline hanson, who's a joke, or an emerging hardline christian party. while if you want to vote for environmental policies you also have to vote for sjw appeasement shit and a completely dysfunctional party

>are just naturalised chinese citizens
It's the same here I'm afraid

>while if you want to vote for environmental policies you also have to vote for sjw appeasement shit and a completely dysfunctional party
Are the greens really that bad?
All the braindead boomers I've seen talk about them all call them "sjw socalists" and other nonsense but I've never seen any evidence that makes them seem bad.
Have they actually advocated for too many dumb things?

everyone there has/had black hair and blue eyes.

Not really, we're basically a really skinny country like chile but Witt a big wasteland in the middle. Nobody lives in the middle

Liberals have a coalition with the Nationals. nationals are same shit different name, but they're very popular among rural voters l.
Liberals get in my fearmongering over boat people (while increasing unskilled visa worker intake) and telling old people that a vote for labor means they'll lose their house.

This stuff works when 70% of the media is owned by Murdoch and it's all you ever see on the TV because of it

Hopefully it will improve once all the boomers and Murdoch die

Aus has the only leader I respect in that picture

Greens have great policy for the most part but they always seem happy to ditch them.
Last election greens went completely against their position and cross benched with the Liberals.

Boomers have kids that'll probably want to keep their elitist stance, I hope it changes though.

I'm basically set to inherit 2 1+million$ properties and I'd still prefer to keep the LNP as far away from politics as possible. But I'm basically an autist so who knows.

you shouldn't respect any of them

>Greens have great policy for the most part but they always seem happy to ditch them.
Hmm I see
I think that's a common trend among the left.
I'll often find boomers ranting about socialism and what not but when you read about their policies there is nothing of the sort.
Really makes you lose faith in politics.

>greens went completely against their position and cross benched with the Liberals
Wow really, that's gotta hurt
The Maori party did the same thing here, and they got unelected last year and their voters absorbed by labour.

>Boomers have kids that'll probably want to keep their elitist stance
yea some yuppies with a commerce degree who think the job their daddy gave them meant they worked hard and the liberal party is giving them what they deserve
if I wasn't a sensible person I'd almost be a socialist after seeing some of this shit

>I'm basically set to inherit 2 1+million$ properties
I have to share my inheritance with my brother, but it's probably the only way I'll be able to buy a house before I'm 35

I mean Jacinda went from a nobody to PM in 6 months, that's pretty respectable

Boomer fall for anything.
Same as how the Canadian boomers think Trudeau is a socialist, Obama's a Muslim and Corbyn was a sex offender or whatever shit they went on about.

They're an easy voter base to keep as they only get their news from TV and newspapers.

I don't they even know what the word means, which is weird because their generation is the only one in which socialism was an actual thing in politics unlike meme bullshit that fear mongers cry about.

I think they're trying to change that perception with their new leader di natale but there's been a lot of infighting in the party, look into the batman byelection if you're interested
abc.net.au/news/2018-03-18/batman-byelection-a-savage-loss-for-greens/9560912
then there's old bags like lee rhiannon who peddle a lot of champagne socialist rhetoric and who are impossible to expel from the party
I don't think they advocated for too much dumb shit, I think boomers hate them for introducing the carbon tax during the gillard government, which was probably the best policy in the last decade

I remember thinking for years New Zealand was part of Australia until I called one an Aussie and he, very rudely may I add, explained to me I was wrong.

>introducing the carbon tax
Nothing boomers hate more than paying tax on trying to prevent the destruction of the planet.

>and he, very rudely may I add, explained to me I was wrong
I'm surprised he didn't glass you, nothing more offensive to us than calling us an aussie.

Also could be that we're bought out by the companies that are against the carbon tax.
Exxon Mobil doesn't need to pay any tax for the next 7 years or so, it's ridiculous.

I think their """""logic""""" on hating gillard for the carbon tax was that she promised she wouldn't introduce the tax but then entered a coalition government with the greens and introduced it a part of a deal
they don't actually consider that it was the right a logical thing to do, instead they're obsessed with political slandering and moralising
yeah it's weird that stuff
the government is obsessed with getting tax breaks for those big foreign companies but I think they push it

What a fucking disgrace

t. shark

I don't deny it

I thought western AUS was Labor at the moment.
Saddening either way.

The new Labor premier stopped it in 2017

That's nice then.
You'll be happy to know that the LNP muscled the Great Barrier Reef off of the UN environmental protection list too.

>muscled the Great Barrier Reef off of the UN environmental protection list too
I heard about that.
I never really understood the need to protect the greatest biological wonder in the world

It's worth 5 billion a fucking year
Liberals are subhuman how the fuck does anybody vote for them after what they've done with our early 2010's god tier position

I think it's a conspiracy to help set up the Adani mine.
Living in cairns, the constant news of floods and devastating rain 7 and 9/win air about us is completely false too... feels like they're trying to ruin our tourism industry.

australians are so sharp politically compared to people from other countries but our politicians are retarded

what's the point of becoming pm if you're gonna pop out a baby and go on maternity leave

>Australia is literally castrating itself to earn pajeets some more money
Fucking christ

Fuck got tricked

Getting on that prime minister pension
Easy street 4life

daily reminder that australia is not a democracy

It's funny, we have a superior voting system and we still manage to fuck it up
