National is now leaking like a sieve. Either a coup against Christopher Luxon is under way or a group of disgruntled MPs are busily attempting to destabilise Luxon's leadership. Either way this is not good for National. From Thomas Coughlan at the Herald: Prime Minister…

Without understanding the astonishing network of power exercised by the United Arab Emirates you would have no idea why the UAE was hit particularly hard by Iran in recent weeks. Nor would you know what fuels chaos from Libya to Sudan to Somalia to Yemen.…

Who can remember the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. Probably not many of us. I was aged 1 at the time and had no idea what was happening although I am told that my father came home early from work that day convinced that World…

It would be tilting at windmills to criticise National’s election campaign in 2026 for the simple fact that it’s not in existence yet. Except it is, at least its bulletised framework, and that’s all we can and should expect from National. In typical National style,…

If you did not catch the recent interview of Vanushi Walters on Q&A can I urge you to watch it? Her presentation of some pretty complex International Relations nuances I thought was outstanding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTQxUQpTOWU The first three comments on Youtube summarised the interview well.

Throughout the world responsible Governments are preparing for the worst. Their pessimism is justified. Donald Trump has taken to try and resolve the war by insulting Iran by 5 am truths. His latest truth is to warn them to “[o]pen the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy…

"All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some…

The oil crisis is entering an interesting stage. It seems inevitable that the country will enter into a fuel crunch in about three weeks time as the ripple effect of the Iranian war fans out. We are currently still receiving tankers that were launched some…

https://twitter.com/120Aotearoa/status/2038859867981832357 Some reasons to feel better. Labour/Green/Te Pāti Māori are on 60 seats, which means not too far off being able to govern and do so without Peters. This would be a very good result. Yet half National's seats are going to Act and NZF.…
