This coalition is New Zealands last hope to sort out the mess we are in! But they need 2 or 3 terms to achieve it.
They'll get 6 years for sure!
My Dear Karl, Hey love I was thinking the same thing. Great comment thank you..Hope you and your family are doing well. Sending love 🥰 and blessings 🙏
1, 2, 3 dreamers...
What are you people smoking?
@@kevinjames9860grow up and contribute to society.
@@kevinjames9860 we have common sense
I was scared that ACT got so many votes. Now I'm totally ACT all the way.
I've never voted ACT but have only recently started listening to Mr Seymour and he has converted me with his pure rationality. For example, "delivering public services on need not race" - precisely.
Act ,acts of idiots 🎉
I voted Act so far very happy I did. He’s done so well despite the media agenda doing everything they could and can to destroy ACT. Keep going David when you get the main stream against you you are doing something right
David Seymour, do you have plans to level the tax rate for All New Zealand Businesses ?
Currently a maori business pays 17%
All others pay 28% !!
We cannot compete for Government Contracts because of this.
Why is Ngai Tahu allowed to purchase existing businesses and run them as CHARITIES which allows them to make TAX FREE PAYMENTS to their SHAREHOLDERS !!
Maori care paid more in BENEFITS than they pay in TAX !!
EVERY NON-MAORI in NEW ZEALAND is SUBSIDISING part-maori.
This must stop it is called APARTHEID and it is ALIVE and WELL in NEW ZEALAND
bedwetters speak out
Go ask Ngai Tahu, their grievance is with the CROWN not us. We don't belong in their korero, and the CROWN doesn't belong in Parliament
Create one rule for everyone. No special New Zealanders
If you own land, you are different to others. As it means you own a resource.
@@adsdft585 so you hate people who own land?
@@adsdft585I'd suggest getting off your backside then
Paul Henry was right…
We kiwis are mute…we don’t like to ‘rock the boat’
Is it that we don't like rocking the boat or is it, we don't want to be call racist or loss our jobs, I say a lot of people are scared of maori. They are blooding this country dry, just watched a stop co governance video, iwi pay no tax, maori business only pay 17% tax, yet everyone is ok with that. I call the maori flag, New Zealand protest flag, I don't think there has been a march against maori ever, other that a couple stop co governance marchs.
Kiwis rocked the boat with the 2023 elections. They threw out the leftists.
@@chrissolutions we don’t say what we believe. A vote in a private booth is different…🤦
@@johnhewson8478 - You are in a co governance? yes / no?
@@johnhewson8478 - Churches don't pay tax either.
Keep on moving David I support you all the way
Some woke Māori are trying to make everybody second class citizens but themselves
Look at South Africa and see the results! Let that be a lesson for all of us
Yeah keep moving david, the exit is to your left...
Grow up Kevin
as along time Act supporter I was very pleased with the election result, another strong step forward, and the continued relevence they have shown in governance since shows the trend can continue at the next election. Great work all of you.
Karen Chour is doing a great job, rising to the occasion and fighting for our kids
Well Done David thank you for bring wisdom and intelligence back to the parliament
Paul Henry for President:-)
He was fabulous at the ACT Change Makers.
omg, that is the most dinosaur ecrement statement yet. Only morons rate henry
I think a lot of people voted National who could have voted Act but were worried that it may have helped Labour into another term.
Yep. Kept Labour out, but at the expense of Luxflakes weak position on the TOW and TOWT.
@@saxdearing3395job well done keeping labour out 👌🏼
Well done Deputy PM, David Seymour.
I voted NZFirst but my future will be with ACT.
I agree but NZF is the only party that will even acknowledge mass immigration
Just keep on at what they are doing. The main governing party is too reputationally risk adverse to take ownership, so somebody needs to say what needs to be said.
The main governing party is at the whims of the ruling global wealthy elite like the WEF where profits are made at the least possible costs.
The Nats, Act, NZF coalition could become a formidable govt that could stay in power for years.Conservative/ right wing politics is making a comeback in Europe and maybe under Trump in the USA. Woke/ left wing/ lets please everybody politics, hopefully goes down the sewer where it came from.
Not in the UK it's not, things appear like it's going to get bad there very soon
Great work David Act all the way
I thought Paul Henry was great and said everything most kiwis are honestly thinking
I would question the statement of 'most kiwis are honestly thinking'. ACT is only 8% of the voters.
Have to agree & I'm not a act voter.
Loved hearing a Kiwi just let lose & lay out what a shitload are thinking.
@@chrismckellar9350 For now as I can see act take more Labour voters next election.
@@Ricky-nq7lu - Two of the founding members of ACT Roger Douglas introduced and Richard Prebble supported the current 'for profit at least cost' neoliberal economics and governance 38 years ago and look at the social, economic, infrastructural, health and housing mess the country is currently in.
I hope they're thinking that, reading comments in alot of places it doesn't feel like it's what most are thinking..
Act will do better the national party is on its way out under the present pm,if he doesn’t pull his finger out and deal with the Māori,if he stuffs this up he’s out.
Some silly questions and statements, Sean. Act have done really well to get where they are.
Why are we treating Maori as if they are indigenous? Has no one looked at 'Skeletons in the Cupboard' on UA-cam? That documentary tells a different story The history books would need rewriting. Weren't Moriori here before Maori? Just saying.
It's an inconvenient truth.
Cheers, I'll look right now 👍
And how about a rational investigation of the Kaimanawa Wall? Will any Government allow this?
indigineity is not just first to arrive , it’s also about relativity between a settler community, how they evolved once they arrived & then who came after them . With that in mind the NZer as a combination of both cultures has become the new indigineity , a unique fusion of global tribes , it is more than Māori , as Seymour has said before, we must address the issues of our collective humanity , that’s what it means to be kiwi NOT separatism
No they are from the Chatham islands.
This Government is the best, on how mmp should work.
David Seymour needs to be PM. Luxon is too much of a pussycat. Would have been a poor CEO - all leadership buzz words but little substance
All hell would break loose having Seymour as pm 😂. He's already caused alot of backlash and he's not even the pm
@@kiwikiwi223everyone loved cindy & hipkins though eh? 🤭
luxon needs to grow a pair, thank goodness for David and Winston and their parties
@greatwhite9428 well they loved Cindy enough to get over half the votes of the country after her 1st term. Could you say the same for Seymour?
@J.Smith-rc6wh I'd prefer luxon without Seymour and Winston. I think there policies have caused the most backlash for this government since coming into power.
Give him time, as he grows they will get better.
(1) Roll back the Waitangi Treaty and (2) some sort of official public investigation into the fracas at Albert Park last year. Please.
David, ACT were on 12% at one stage and then they went down in every poll.
So instead of denying it, you should be trying to find out why.
Winston pinched them votes 🤣
@@jonno9891 No. Peters didn't pinch ACT votes. Peters gains came from pealing off the Left and experience. ACT lost votes to National primarily out of fear of losing a conservative majority and to keep Labour out.
If Act had stood against the mandates and lockdowns instead of supporting Adern, they would have got 20% and NZF wouldn't exist now
@@chrissolutionsPeters pinched plenty of Act votes
The media campaign was strong against them. For the most un racist party there is. Tvnz showed two uneducated school girls with Act is racist sign then plastered over a few nights just before voting day. Many of these types of assassin type journalism affects people who don’t look into what parties stand for and just believe what they are told. I voted ACT because I stand strong against racism where ever it is.
build more prisons to protect future victims. we need longer sentenses and life sentences to protect the innocent.
David are you looking at changing the tax take from iwi which is zero or maori business only paying 17% tax
It would be great if ACT could instigate a review of The Charities Act which allows iwi owned businesses to masquerade as charities and pay zero tax.
Bleedin fantastic!!
Keep up the great work David!
That's an easy question to answer,back into opposition when voters decide,surprise it even needed to be asked
Great questions again Shane.
Sir David Seymour, Sir Shane Jones & Sir Winston Peters !! Maori Are Great Again !!
NZ is awash with debt. Indebted to private overseas Central Banks. Interest payments on this debt is the main reason for our crippled economy. I agree with Henry, we are screwed.
The only reason the Russian economy is robust is because they have their own governmental controlled central bank. This is the main reason why the West is determined to topple Putin. They went after Hussein. They went after Gaddafi. Why?? They tried to fuck the Central Banks by abandoning petro dollars in favour of their alternative currencies. NZ is being manipulated by overseas globalist bankers. The solution??? Create our own unique currency. Germany did it the Reichsmark. The USA even did it. JFK introduced a new currency to circumvent the Fed Reserve control over the economy. A few months later he was assassinated. And his new currency was withdrawn. Fact. We need to understand the root cause of our economic woes.
move to russia bro
Government debt $181b. $3 m /hr. $90,000 per household. This is the reality we face.
Borrowing and accumulated debt are not a problem *so long as* both are being put to productive uses. If the borrowing is going to line the pockets of unproductive cronies and basket weaving jobs then the borrowing becomes a major problem because it cannot be paid down from raising productivity, only by raising taxes and thus both the borrowing and higher taxes become drags on the economy. That is how Labour and the Greens setup New Zealand for failure.
I agree here 👆Unfortunately we’re well tied into the “western “ banking scheme and things will never really change with either Labor or National at the helm.
With the threat of assassination like the others named here, who would be brave enough to that here in NZ?
The job is nowhere near done - all you have to do is look at the government departments and the huge and bloated bureaucracy.
The perpetual leases on Māori land need to be sunsetted. If they were on Pakeha land then they would be gone yesterday. If ACT truely wanted equality then it would campaign on removing the perpetual leases.
keep up the good work
Government schools have flexibility to choose alot through the locally elected board of trustees. E.g Glendowie Primary School. They have montisory and bacarolriate programs.
D Seymour said if government stops a program or policy and no one misses it. Then it a correct choice. No one missed charter schools.
David seymour for p.m
Been living in New Zealand for 35 years and I always felt that in general the Kiwis don't like confrontations and challenging issues, which can be very dangerous, especially when a power hungry socialist political movement is trying to take over an entire country. Remember pre-war Germany eg National socialism.
Well done Acts for swimming against the current.
I hope Act and NZ First get an even stronger result in the next election. National just fiddle at the edges of the big issues facing a free and democratic NZ.
Small parties don’t get second term
@@Innerlight320that's the Greens and te pati gone then
@@schlookieyes labour for the win
@@Innerlight320 it's such a shame that you support mediocrity. I assume that you are a failure yourself?
David Seymour for PM
Move over Luxon
This guys got the guts to steer this country
David im with you and national but if you don't allow digging at this kaimanawa wall and since maori elders and leaders have even said themselves that they never built this ancient wonder '' these people came thousands of years before us' which is only the tip of the ice berg since 'redtape and politics mainly in protection of this treaty which is rubbish since the maoris are not indigenous to this country but mere travelers like everybody else. But then the very other basic and obvious fact that n.z isnt just 900 years in production but many thousands of years already been trodden on and admittedly by the first maoris that they have nothing to do with this wall. So why dont you really do an outsiders thing and start to investigate this or at least make word of it. Why all the governments national or labour continue to keep this fake narrative alive is beyond me when the maoris have no legs to stand on.
Paul Henry for leader of Act
David does a great job but Paul would be a welcome addition
@@J.Smith-rc6wh Paul a natural star.
Yes, yes, yes to treaty being irrelevant especially as the prevailing interpretation is counterproductive in a devastating way. Get rid of it asap!
This is like a promo channel for act national and nzf 😂😂
Makes a change from all other MSM being promo channels for the Left. I hear what you're saying though. It would be nice to have actual non biased media.
they just make more sense than the other clowns, who have been invited on the show but refuse to be interviewed by someone with real questions
@J.Smith-rc6wh that's just your opinion and I see the platform subscribers are heavily in favour of nzf and act so that is fine. At the end of the day Winston and Seymour got less than 10% of the votes. People on this channel forget that

@@J.Smith-rc6wh are you implying Sean has real questions?😂
I watched Paul henrys speech at Acts meeting..IT was good but he gave all the credit to Seymour and didn't mention NZ first ,???lets face it with out them they wouldnst be in goverment ,now or in the next term if so... perhaps he only watches seymour in parliament etc?who's driving the mining exploration etc Paul....?be very careful who you dis ,because i can tell you ,Act won't govern with National on their own .too many ex labour voters will never vote national and think David is not much better
New Zealand should join brics imo
Why should this country join BRICS?
Nah, it's just another branch of globalism.
It would be backing the right horse as the west will implode economically with net zero.
Should have said, the ecomomies of the west will implode...we are on a self imposed path of destruction
What have they done so far? Not debating just genuinely asking - I live overseas. Love to hear the progress…
They spent more in the budget than the Labour Government did in their last budget!
You need to stop forcing wrong statements on people
Seymore is a farq wit
Grow up Rod and do something useful with yourself
@schlookie thanks for your advice farq wit 👍
@@rodnichols6237 I sure hope you take my advice. We want to turn New Zealand into a great nation. Your current mindset promotes mediocrity. Now grow up.
@@rodnichols6237 OK sookie
More neoliberal libertarian nimby utopia waffle. The reality is, this country is addicted to neoliberal 3 yearly cheap, quick fix, can kicking thinking and planning and any change is out of the question as this country is risk adverse to any major social, economical and political changes to the 'she will be right' mentality.
A real free market would be a huge change to a socialist nanny state low risk retard society like NZ
These clowns
Grow up
@@schlookie 😆
I'm glad he's in, but can't admit any wrong doing. Arrogant and slagged off Christians. Yes he could have done better
Mr no one cares about you mate, down in the poles again I see 😂
