Luxon ?

[wetanz]

if only his dad had settled for a few more cranks rather than some missionary work there would be no Luxton......

naya - are you sure the genetics run true - luxon has an uncanny physical similarity to muldoon, and was born when 'robbie' was at the height of politics ... thea n kids were there to be seen n not heard

I would ask, but it appears luxton is to busy to answer questions......

Highly amused to see in an online article that Luxon's handshake is becoming the kiss of death.

The last three world leaders he's shaken hands with have all dropped out of the job.
In the case of the Singapore PM, immediately after leaving Luxon.

I'm sure we could come up with a list of countries we want him to visit.....

If you're interested there's a really good podcast series on the The Spinoff called "Juggernaut" about the fourth labour government (84 - Lange and Douglas). The first episode is scene setting and talks extenisvely about NZ in the Muldoon era. I am old enough to remember it (though I was utterly uninterested in it at the time) and its just excellent. Anyway the takehome is that Muldoon was a number one grade A cunt. And somehow managed to disguise a soviet era command economy as the "farmers party" or whatever the neshnuls were then. https://thespinoff.co.nz/podcasts/juggernaut

Anyway, recommended.

I'd normally agree with you ol Henry , he was well thought of here in the farming sect as he underwrote the freezing works here when the idea was floated a whole heap of mum and dad invested brought the shares.
prior to that the coast was used a hold paddock for the other areas only killing our cattle for f all when it suited them, ie after the peak periods. He was actually genuinely liked here. it's odd how socialist and protectionist he was, when douglas and Prebble were later in the left party far more trght wing than even National were. that said was he actually populist?
