Mr Insipid promised scorched earth as one of his bottom lines during his lacklustre campaign. On offer was "In the first 100 days I'll do this and that, repeal this and that ...".
Well the nation spoke and has delivered Winston First almost in the mix. So we wait to form a government nigh on 3 weeks to see the final results of specials. And if that doesn't fall rightward, Labour-Lite will require another 3-4 weeks to see the outcome of the upcoming bye-election with its own waiting period for specials. Meanwhile the long untrusted Winnie lurks sniping from the sidelines to see if the new rodeo ringmaster might cut an early deal.
So potentially we're well into December with Christmas holidays looming large. Once they get around to actually forming a government, it could well be into February next year, a 5 month holiday fully on the taxpayer's dime. All under the outgoing but 'caretaker' government.
Once sworn in, the new crew will require another month to settle in via a stint at some re-education gulag to be formally 'Maorified'. Now into March and school hols / Easter.
There won't be any of the promised first 100 days post-election left.
The promises of quick action was all lies.
