Inflation 7.5 %, interest rates 4.25 %, imports CAD 2.2 NZ Billion
Still think NZ Labor would win but greater reliance on coalition partners.
In western democracies major parties have struggled to get 33% of the primary vote, which makes winning majorities extremely difficult.

I'll over throw Putin.
Or maybe I won't.

Watched a documentary on Alexei Navalny yesterday, produced by him and his supporters, from the time he was poisoned to his later return to Russia and arrest at the airport.
It cannot be underestimated what this one brave man did, and continues to do after his death, to shine a light on the brutality of Putin and his enablers.
He knew what his fate would be, but ploughed ahead regardless.
We can only hope that Putin is overthrown and Russian society freed of all this, but their history says otherwise.

Russian history lives on - nothings changed in centuries
How anyone could think Stalin was better than Hitler defies logic
