We have the Deputy Leader and the Leader of the Opposition promoting actual conspiracy theories…
so Kim Hill’s brutal destruction of Crusher’s crazy conspiracy theory is a necessary antidote to active promotion of fear and ignorance attempting to manipulate panic for political gain.
This matters!
What National are doing is dangerous!
Of course we need a Loyal Opposition holding a Government with vast police State Powers to account! No one is saying we shouldn’t and Simon Bridges did an amazing job of holding the Government to account when he was running those Select Committees, but this isn’t a Loyal Opposition, this is a Toxic Opposition who are promoting Conspiracy Theories at a time when the electorate is terrified!
National are not trying to hold the Government to account as the loyal Opposition, they are a Toxic Opposition openly feeding conspiracy theories that risk destabilising civil society.
