Change against neoliberal policy will require a radical reversal of what has become the norm. Until a mass of people are prepared to get motivated, vote against both the coalition and center-right Labour policies, nothing will change.

But currently, no signs of that radical voter group is apparent. Maybe things have to get much worse before that happens.

At least we can rely on Luxon to continue to be such an underperforming PM of such a cruel, cynical government.

Great summation thanks Bryan. Govt still have a 51% say within 4 wholesale providers, so a brave (new) government could effect a crash in share prices and buy the lot back as cheaply as it was sold off. The $7 billion in profits yearly would go a long way to future proofing our energy supply with renewables. Don't get me going about the $7 billion a year the banking sector suck from our economy.
