Todd Muller makes his first speech as National Party leader | nzherald.co.nz

Maybe he has the moral fortitude to call China out over the Wuhan virus.

The man has empathy, intelligence and is a loyal New Zealander. A good change for National, they now have my vote.

Can we get a podcast so we can actually get to know who these people are

rebuild the economy ... More like sell our assets to China ... Go national !!!

I wish him all the best for 2023 elections if he is still around. Good try for 2020 but slightly bit late.

Let's look at it without taking sides. Currently the coalition seems to be a two-person band. Jacinda Ahern is the superstar, backed by Grant Robertson. Jacinda has enormous mana with a majority of New Zealanders which will lead to her party's re-election, primarily through admiration and gratitude over how she handled this Covid-19 crisis and the Christchurch massacre. Almost every other MP on that side is either a liability or a nonentity. Todd Muller has identified that and has already set his "team" against the coalition. I suspect he will improve National's popularity quite dramatically over the next few months then lose the election gracefully while planning for the next. National will offer themselves to the electorate as the professional team to guide us through the inevitable recession and out into prosperity again. So we can expect them to hammer the coalition's "failure to deliver" in this term at every opportunity.

I quite like this new team but........
Correct me if I'm wrong but.....
*News hub (already pro labour) gets a bailout from labour
*then do a poll of a few thousand more left leaning people
*claim national are a unstable boat
*push this narrative for 4-5 days forcing national to do something......anything
Look I'm a liberal secularist but keeping media and state separate is just as important as keeping church and state separate and theres something that stinks about this (I maybe wrong....just sayn)

Another C.C.P puppet like John Key selling Nz to chinnaa.

i already dont recognise the country where in anymore

Bollocks

Scott Morrison's brother?

Where does he think the Bioweapon came from?

Well another one ready to sell us to china while the rest of the world are being threatened by them..ladies if u want a man to tell you what you should do with ur bodies this guy is for you...same old white man bullshit

He supports Trump! his MAGA hat will have pride of place in his new office he said. Anyone who supports Trump is an idiot.

Maga fan? No surprise a white privileged kiwi man who admires the white privileged american politics. John key loved qmerica to. According to Muller's mate in an interview said he Made sandwiches knowing " the maori boys would pinch them" so offensive to maori that statement was. A catholic? Please Muller your religion is between you and the almighty. Stating your faith is so 1980 such an archaic way of self promotion. He will probably be seen kissing babies lol how fake. He is just privileged and out of touch. Jacinda is the breath of fresh air this country needs. He is just a repeat of the same old politicians. Your guys days are over.. Ok boomer.

He's a bit too presumptive about getting into government.

I do think it is positive that both government & opposition are focused on small business though.

Jacinda has earned the right to lead NZ into the future...NZ has an opportunity right now to become better, richer and a global leader....don't mess it up Labour because Muller looks ready to take the reigns ...it's great to have two strong options in NZ instead of the mess in USA...

We don't need a wannabe Trump running our country thank you. Def will not get my vote!

Todd Muller will not get into government.his party are stupid idiots

I hope he can sort out the Chinese issue and has some ANZAC spirit

Why didn't he put his MAGA hat on? I thought he'd be better than Simon, now I find out he's Trump supporter.

Wait so Simon and Paula bennet have nothing to do with the National party anymore???

Shock horror, how could National pick a man against abortion, gay marriage and euthanasia as Leader. I will vote Labour in protest.

Ok boomer.

Give us our rights back?

Time for the new mobs turn at the trough.

What an evil man with an evil agenda backed by the United Nations and w.h.o

What a troffer

wow national trump supporter , a man that wanted to be president of the USA, and he wants to open our boarders , all for the sake of money first people last , our safety wasn't mentioned ?, if you are about what is best for us, sit down and shut up Jacinda has our best interest all sorted, you are all about big corporate's as per the norm , this national leopard never changes its spots only it's leaders

Now this guy sounds more like a leader than nationals last. Bridges was in my opinion too hung up on blaming and attacking others instead of doing what is expected and hoped for as a country’s PM. NZ’s next election will be more interesting now, my vote will be the same! Kia kaha Aotearoa.

This is like a 5th form English speech.

How about putting these at the top of your list to do ........REPEAL Jakindas Abortion Act . REPEAL Jakindas corona virus Act to subjucate NZ Citizens. and one other thing why dont you for once and all, DO AWAY WITH POLITICAL CORRECTNESS .

All the best Todd be true to yourself and win it this year for common sense and our freedoms. MNZGA!

Shut up Mr Who

Well there is no way I would vote National no matter who the leader is, they can promise all they want the fact is we had them for 9 long painful years and all they did was think of money and not people, run down Health, Schools and treated the people at the bottom with contempt, so much for John Key and we would all be better off.

Haha Todd. Keep on “Trumpin’”

she said "he is PROBABLY the most decent person I know" - what a load of shit. lol He may be a good guy but I doubt he's the MOST decent. lol

He will crumble under pressure

Labour has this in the bag

Watch him walk out ,abandon ship,ya joke

Well, this is embarrassing.

Good riddance to a weak and nasty man.

Todd, Ya screwed the pooch mate! You screwed the National party's chances of an election victory and you have screwed the people of New Zealand concerned about the red tide of Labour which is also screwing us all! I guess it just goes to show that politics is never really about the people hey!

DIDNT STAY LONG ENOUGH TO REMEMBER HIS NAME 😂

just another bunch of criminal traitors ... the NZ gov...
full of rapists.

When Todd pulled a Muller 😂
22/05/2020 - 14/07/2020 ⚰️☠️

I love National, but I thought Todd was a complete joke
