National all at sea (not waving, drowning!)

Armchair Critic opines:

"...Hekia Parata on the ropes again with more incompetence, Simon Bridges having a major meltdown on primetime TV and John Banks off to court. So we've ended up with Mike Williams saying:
"We may well be facing an election sooner than the end of next year. Don’t be surprised if John Key is not National’s leader at that election."
And on the subject of a snap election, David Cunliffe today saying:
"Go ahead. Make our day. We’re on a roll, we’re ready to govern."
National are all at sea, and that hand in the air is not because they are waving (smile and wave is long gone). They are drowning - because they are out of their depth.

;-) thought you might like that one. Credit where it's due, the comment is inspired by a song from the Manic Street Preachers - "Ready For Drowning".

I watched Question Time today. The Prime Minister was being pinned by Metiria and Cunliffe something terrible. I could barely keep my eyes on the screen but I made an effort.

Yeah, I missed it. The transcripts looked good.

Bridges was quite mad, like one of those brain-addled Roman emperors.
