"And my answer is when there are nine"

This is perhaps the only time I have read news comments and felt better about New Zealanders.

Edit- Wow, never seen that John Key quote before. What a fuckwit.

It seems to get more bizarre every time I come across it. I cannot wrap my head around why you would bother making that point to start with, let alone in the apparent context. As that article points out, it also goes well with this thing.

I know it may seem like a medical condition at first because he seems so out of touch with reality and seems genuinely impaired in some way, as if he can't visualise the thoughts or feelings of other people, but it's actually just called being a rich old white guy.

So, about a 13,000 vote swing from November then.

Huge swing, incredible relative turnout... I've love to see the internal reactions in National.

And we're done, with a 4012 majority, barring specials, etc.

The prevailing sentiment among both the political elites and the population of Britain at large was then, as ours is now, one of tolerance, or at least wilful blindness to the dangers posed by the rising tide of fascism in Germany.

This analogy is fascinating and terrible and what the gently caress. Also, even if you don't click through to read the post (don't), knowing that it's Garrett will probably tell you a lot.
