"I don’t want Chris Hipkins to be 'In It For You,' I want him to leave me alone"

"So it’s that time when you get a chance to have a tiny say in what group of politicians pass laws on what you can do, and how to spend a portion of your money, or what to do with your property. ... Fortunately this election comes as a chance to evict the most leftwing Labour Government in decades....
    "This Labour Government in particular deserves to be defeated.... I don’t want a government that believes in constant growth of the state, including the welfare state, to make more and more people dependent on other taxpayers. I don’t want a government that thinks that its role is primarily to take the wealth generated by others to give to other people or businesses.... There is no shortage of failure, but there is a strong pattern seen across almost all of the policies of the Labour Party:

• Obsession with centralising power and control ...
• Distrust of individuals, and individual freedom and property rights ...
• Support for post-modernist identitarianism and the dishonesty about its support ...
• Focus on image and virtue signalling over outcomes ...

    "Most of all though, I am fed up with this meddling government. I don’t want Chris Hipkins to be 'In It For You,' I want him to leave me alone, I want him and his group of mediocre minor achievers to get out of the way."
