Good riddance to Don Brash
The Leader of the New Zealand’s National party, Don Brash, resigned yesterday after only 3 years as leader. He may have done well for the party in the last election, but he was boring, monotonous and had little to offer the Right in the way of new ideas. He also looked a bit like Michael Howard.
As an ex-head of the central bank he often seemed to think like an economist rather than a politician and his views were based on basic Right Wing libertarian ideas. He promised to introduce the voucher system in New Zealand. He will not be missed.
