John Key will probably be the next Prime Minister irrespective of what i vote in the next election?

On average, everyone agrees with significant nonconsensus between 107 voters.

Reasons To Disagree

I sure hope not - because I don't want to see a repeat of the privitisation, etc that happened in the 1990s y'see.

never ever rule out labour - or Helen Clark. that would be a big mistake to make.

The Key is so easy to turn.

I bloody hope not. He lacks integrity. Aside from that, the National Party will be the same poor-hating, Maori-bashing, environment-screwing, big-business loving Party it always has been if it gets into government.

Reasons To Agree

i hate to say it, but i do worry about it

I'm not totaly sure if it irrespective of how I vote but I think he'll make a good Prime Minister. Then again any one would compared to the one we have at the moment!

I hope so - Anything to get rid of the dictators we have in power at the moment. Although there are many aspects of National and John Key especially that I am not happy with, currently the only person (or people like) I would not vote to replace Clarkie would be Hitler - probably because I would be voting for the same person...

NZ wants change.

He's a fantastic politician and I think he is doing a brilliant job in restoring the country's faith in national.

I'm not really a supporter of national, and this is probably due to my parents views, however i feel New Zealand does need a change in government. So yeah, even if i could vote (i am not old enough) and voted for anyone besides National, it wouldn't really matter because right now it looks like national is going to win.

I hope so!! I personally believe he will make a really good prime minister, anyone that has grown up how he has, from a really poor family and has made himself a very successful business man obviously has some idea of what hes doing in life and what needs to be done to improve an economy.

i hate the guy, i think hes too slimy for words. but yes, i think it will happen. helen rules!

anyone would be better than what we got now!

Helen Clark is gay

I have read the comments in this section with some alarm... why are people so basic, insulting and downright rude about someone they have only seen on TV. I've met them both (Key and Clarke) and they are both exceptional NZer's, too good to be running this dicky little second-class country stuck at the bottom of nowhere populated by half-wits.

Well he is, and all those who posted comments under 'disagree' have been proved resoundingly wrong!

I agree because it already happened.

finally, a prime minister that is human!

Labour party need a more strong leader if they want to prevail.
