I still can't understand why Winston Peters swayed to side with Labor. Is it because he was being offered the Deputy Prime minister Position? I think that Winston Peters didn't give his answer as to whether he would take the position offered to him yet, so we wouldn't make the connection that he swayed towards Labor because of it. Abortion, falls under the criminal Act and whats with Water Taxing for Farmers? They didn't want to tax the urban consumers because they didn't want to upset them, So Labour thinks its better to tax the Farmers, well what happens when the Farmers get taxed, then the taxes they absorb will be passed on to the consumer for the beef, Lamb, crops, dairy, wheat, fruit etc..thus pushing up the costs for the consumers food and beverage which is already uncommonly high! Therefore tipping the economy into the unbalanced state it is already in, where the poor get poorer, & the rich get richer I don't understand why taxing the higher income bracket is a no go, but taxing farmers who are working just as hard, if not more than that of the higher income bracket is all good and fair.
Then there is the issue of Immigration, where Ardern has expressed that the immigration intake will be sufficiently lowered stating that there is an "infrastructure issue" due to the poor population growth planning, BUT she wants to INCREASE the intake of Refugees. I don't think that to solve one problem, to create a new problem or make an existing problem worse, is hardly commendable. There are other issues I would rather not get into,

Born in Hamilton, New Zealand,[12] Ardern grew up in Morrinsville and Murupara, where her father, Ross Ardern, worked as a police officer.[13] She attended the University of Waikato, graduating in 2001 with a Bachelor of Communication Studies (BCS) in politics and public relations.[14] Ardern was brought into politics by her aunt, a longstanding member of the Labour Party, who recruited a teenaged Ardern to help her with campaigning for New Plymouth MP Harry Duynhoven during his re-election campaign during the 1999 general election.[15]
Ardern joined the Labour Party at a young age, and became a senior figure in the Young Labour branch of the party. After graduating from university, she spent time working in the offices of Phil Goff and of Helen Clark as a researcher. She later spent time in London, working as a senior policy advisor to Tony Blair,[8] a position she would later distance herself from.[16] She was also seconded to the Home Office to help with a review of policing in England and Wales.[14] In early 2008 she won election as the President of the International Union of Socialist Youth,[17] a role which saw her spend time in countries such as Jordan, Israel, Algeria and China.[14]
