I shared the video of Don Brash’s 2004 Orewa speech earlier.
22 years ago. And, sadly, we've gone backwards, not forwards. That kind of says it all about political leadership in the past quarter century.
They get good pensions, air travel and perks for life.......why take the risk of losing all that for the sake of doing their job as an MP and representing all those who put them there to get these perks...come on now!
I’ve not read his full speech before. It’s as relevant (if not more) today than back when he first gave it.
Cone on Luxon/Seymour/Peters, how about getting on with the content of this speech?
👂 🦗 🦗🦗☹️
We now have a National majority who have no bottle to address the issues. And so it goes on.
Yeah love the term “bottle”!
Yes it is a real shame that this obvious agenda never was implemented and I guess will never be as our politicians just don’t have the balls
Don was so close to becoming PM too. Boy, what a different country we would be today if he had, and for the better too.
Thank you twice over. Was largely unaware of the speech and the bloke to be honest. I have now read it twice over and listened too.
Am I the only one but was not Don Brash seen as a “bit of a duffer or dork” in NZ?
I recall thinking that about David Seymour until I actually started listening to what he was saying.
The Leftists always ridicule & bully those who can see through them & have the intelligence to debate their destructive ideology.
