The good thing about Christopher Luxon is that he says the quiet part out loud. He's very clear about what he thinks, and what he will change if the coming election puts him in power. This is also a good thing for those opposing him, and I include myself in that number. We have to ensure that his articulated perspectives and stated aims are not obscured by the inevitable promises of lower taxes and less regulation.
My observation is that the only people in Aotearoa New Zealand who are negative, wet, whiny and inward-looking are those desperate for a National government which will save them from efforts to make us a more equal and forward-thinking country.
