"Timber rrrrrrr ! the greens being put back in their place."
so you regard an increase in a party's overall vote as a defeat?
the greens have consolidated 10-11% - this is now consistent
the challenege is no how to convert 11% to 25% but they have a solid base
much stronger than the nats who only have 6% yet weiled unrepresentative power - this is the scandal - 6% gets you ministers - wqhat a perversion of democracy
