New Government

New Zealand has a new government.
The Germans have got their grand coalition, we have a "coalition of greasers."
The election was based on bribery, so not surprisingly, the government is based on "jobs for the boys" and bribery.

By justice a king gives a country stability,
but one who is greedy for bribes tears it down (Prov 29:4).

The Prime Minister is the winner. She has neutered the opposition with the "baubles of office".

Democracy is the loser, but it was never a winner.
