From David Farriers Webworm today -
"Not to make it political, but New Zealand is preparing to elect some knob-heads of its own. ThereÔÇÖs National leader Christopher Luxon, a man previously tied to pentecostal Auckland church the Upper Room ÔÇö a man who claims his religious beliefs donÔÇÖt colour his politics. I call bullshit on that. When your ethics and morals exist to guarantee you a spot in Heaven and the afterlife ÔÇö those ethics and morals play out in all aspects of your life. Including your politics. Your soul depends on it.
Then thereÔÇÖs the Act partyÔÇÖs David Seymour, the kiwi politician with TrumpÔÇÖs ability to get maximum media pickup for a variety of shitty racist jokes and views."
I did not know that. The bit about that pentecostal stuff...
