Where is Luxon?
OPINION: Why can't Christopher Luxon stand up to Winston Peters over the latter’s high-profile attack on the proposed Indian FTA?
The Hound doubts the PM expected that luck to arrive wearing a hoodie and posting racist Tik Toks in the wee small hours after having a few.
But Tākuta Ferris might be just the loose cannon Luxon needs as the next election appears over the horizon.
Ferris embodies the radical, unfit-for-office image many middle voters have of The Māori Party, which also embodies Labour leader Chris Hipkins’ worst nightmare, because anyone that can count knows Labour will need Te Pati Māori and the Greens to form a viable government.
However, Luxon can’t afford to sit back, ironing his suit and waxing his head in anticipation of his victory speech in the election – the poor polls are shouting, “must try harder!”
