The 30,000 or so party voters that voted NZF to get it over the 5%
threshold do indeed have a lot to answer for. If NZF were not in
Parliament we would have had a National/ACT government long ago.
Negotiating coalition agreements is what Winston drags out for maximum
reward from minimal electoral success.

of. Not enough to support his party.

damaging since the election?

concrete pavers at police. Nobody got arrested for protesting against
covid - although I cannot imagine anyone supporting the virus . . .
On Thu, 23 Nov 2023 22:21:49 -0000 (UTC), TonyAh OK, so you changed your mind - good on you. Of course there were protests against covid responses and some protesters were arrested.

covid - some thought it related to their religion for example, but the
vast majority wanted it gone, wanted to be vaccinated, and wanted the >government to save the lives of them and their families - the
government did better at that than virtually any other country. Nobody
was arrested or convicted for protesting against covid, so there is no
need for any pardons.
