What the hell happened in the 2023 New Zealand election?

[@EggsBenAddict]

I genuinely don't know what's next for TOP now, I hope the party sticks around in some capacity but then again, I'd hoped they'd win Ilam. Onto the Voice, I am actually of Aboriginal descent and yeah, as I put it on my Twitter, "this isn't the first time we've lost and it won't be the last"

Tamatha isn't a former councillor. She is a current councillor. 🤓So special election time for the Lambton Ward

[@Mountain_bonker]

keep up the awesome work. I love your attitude man, it lightens up my day watching your vids!! pls stay unbiased ❤

Great to see your show and thanks for your effort on some older videos. I’m not a content creation expert, or even know if you wanted to grow your Chanel, but feel perhaps less or your personal preference bias may incubate a bigger following, also maybe less f bombs. Thanks again and keep up the content. Graham

It's so over it's never been more over then it is now

I’m not sure the special votes will be as ‘left’ as usual. I think the border closure might have a big effect on those votes. Lot of people wanting to punish Labour for not letting them come into the country.

[@TuiPolitics]

Maybe, we didn't see that in 2020 though. We will have to see

[@garethh2711]

I wonder what Labour will do to try and regroup? I don’t think Hipkins should stay on as leader. I think perhaps they need to find a new leader.

Appreciate the number of fucks used in this video. Pretty much agree that nzf getting in to jam the wheels on everything is the biggest positive. On the voice referendum, a thing to realise is a lot of the No voters were recent migrants. Not your typical white australian bigot, but imagine an Indian man living in the west of sydney for the last 15 years. He doesn't feel he owes the Aboriginal people anything. The white leftist vote was strongly in favor, the white right vote was slightly against it. The imigrants and their2nd gen children were against. That's why it failed imo.

It was sooooo wrong I'll actually allow it and defer to he's neuro diverse.

[@fredkelly6953]

Winston getting back in is not that much of a surprise when you consider the leaders of the other parties. None of them know how to crack a smile and all of them have been stripped of their personalities for the sake of focus groups and polls. So Winnie tells it how he sees it unhindered by what focus groups think and people respond to that. He is a recognizable political personality in a field of forgettable cardboard cutouts.

[@TuiPolitics]

But he may be charismatic but he cannot be trusted to do anything he says he will do. The only person Winston cares about is himself and anyone paying attention would know that. All he is is a good salesman and a good laugh

Free dr visists for under 5s and gold card. Hes the only politician that gets real stuff done for the vulnerable. Labour and Nats are just puppets for the corporations who kerp screwing us. Happy for the Maori party.

[@TuiPolitics]

Yeah those are great policies, but let's be real, Winston's only goal seems to be to line his own pockets by benefiting the racing industry and saying or doing anything to stay in power. The regional growth fund for instance might be a good idea, but was only done to buy votes, pure and simple. Winston is bad for our politics and has been holding us back for decades

[@NZHC]

Curious what type of work do you do man ?

[@EggsBenAddict]

I think he said he's a social worker

[@EggsBenAddict]

So what are plans for this channel anyway, are you any close to making money from it?

[@TuiPolitics]

I have a few bigger videos in the works, one I've been working on for over a year, I'm just so useless at getting it finished. Its actually pretty close to making some money, not that it would be much lol. This is just a hobby I enjoy

[@EggsBenAddict]

@@TuiPolitics Oh yeah, well do take your time with your longer videos. Don't overwork yourself. And, I get that this is just a hobby for you to be honest.

[@Deadlyish]

On a scale from Luxon to Seymour, how drunk were you last night? 😂

[@TuiPolitics]

I was Robert muldoon calling a snap election in 1986 levels of drunk
