      Can't see scaredy-cat Luxon doing that. He parrots "The cost of living is the voting public's major concern." How covenient, when we are at a critical cross-roads in this country's history and he will not stand for the upholding of democracy and the elimination of all racial.division.. He will be remembered for not having the Courage to make a stand, just as Jacinda will be remembered for He Puapua by stealth and for stuffing up NZ. We will regress to being a (corrupt) pacific island back water. I am reluctantly making contingency plans as I write, as Ibelieve the future looks grim.
