Yes, but don't let the National party be the limit of thinking about what's possible. They won't be in govt forever
It is very rare to only get one term. So we're looking at another 6 years, minimum.
It's going to feel like forever 😉
Yeah but that's not forever. Big shifts like this don't always happen over night, they often take years of groundwork so you gotta dare to dream in the meantime.
Sidenote, this govt being one term is entirely possible. It's where labour/nz first was heading before covid and they decided to actually act and materially do things.
I think we'll see an increasingly oscillating political landscape as our various crises pile up (climate change, cost of living, infrastructure deficit), and govts fail to actually do anything to address them in any meaningful way.
Yup true, true
