Sustainable NZ Party
Someone's setting up a competitor to the Greens but without the nuttiness:

Heard him on the radio this morning. He's all about sustainability; and that doesn't cover just environmental sustainability, but also social and economic.
He was quite clear that he's not wanting to be seen as blue-green either (and not red-green), but green-green. If that makes sense. Anyway its interesting. My guess is if he's successful at all he'll erode enough support from greens to make them more irrelevant than they already are in the current govt. |

Also surely there can't be that many confused Green voting National supporters. If you care enough about environmental issues to vote Greens then it would be strange to switch to supporting a Govt. that has a terrible track record in that area. |
You mean supporting the party that legislated the Kermadec Marine Sanctuary before the current government, featuring the Green party, cancelled it?
|
I'm sure we can find wins for National on mental health, and flubs by the government for the same. I still don't think there are many for whom social policy is important that would place a vote for a party that might put National in power.
But maybe in ~8 years time I suppose. |
At a guess I'd say that this party's reason for existence is attracting not voters who want National in power, but rather those who want Winston out of it.
