1/200 S2E35 - Left on Read

DescriptionPolitical news in NZ has been on hiatus with National and it’s partners refusing to discuss coalition negotiations and the parliamentary gallery seemingly unable to do anything about that. In to the gap has flowed respectability politics as pundits wonder “why haven’t the Greens saved National from Winston Peters??”. We discuss that absurdity alongside the question of how the left moves forward electorally over the next three to nine years.This episode’s co-hostsKyle, Stephanie, OllieTimestamps0:00 Introductions2:40 Complicit Media Outlets4:30 Undermining the Electoral System6:12 The Negotiation Process of National Coverage10:42 Teal Party Politics24:18 The Mini Budget28:50 The Idea of a Smaller Labour Party47:11 Green Party Political Effectiveness53:46 What Happens if Activists Leave Labour1:08:31 Ending Intro/Outro by The Prophet MotiveSupport us here: https://www.patreon.com/1of200
