Independent political analysis that challenges conventional wisdom and questions the narratives others accept without scrutiny. We examine New Zealand's democracy, economics, and governance with the rigour they deserve but rarely receive. No party allegiance, no pulled punches, just evidence-based commentary that puts New Zealand's interests first. On a lighter note, we also poke the borax where appropriate with hopefully diverting commentary on some of the quirks and outright craziness of characters and issues that strut our stage both here and abroad.
