    They’re a minority, which means their government represents people other than them first.

    Those ‘other people’ are the ones I’m referring to. You know, the ones who put this government in power.

    My initial statement applies to them, which are the majority of New Zealanders since they are a democracy.

    You’re genuinely arguing ‘minorities represent the majority’ which is intrinsically false.

      Expressing a majority opinion, see my edit of my previous reply.

      which means their government represents people other than them first.

      Not when their opinion is in line with that of a significant majority of the population

      You’re genuinely arguing ‘minorities represent the majority’ which is intrinsically false.

      Nope, you’re the one doing that by pretending that the minority group known as The Government automatically only makes decisions that their voters agree with.

      Btw, the current government coalition was voted in by a total of 37.23% of those eligible to vote (51.72% of votes cast with 72% voter participation), NOT the majority of the population.

        There you go arguing it again, lol.

        I’m done. Have a nice day.
