Predictable. Luxon, Peters, Seymour, the "Three headed taniwha" as described by Rahui Papa of the Tainui tribe in the Waikato - for non-New Zealanders, a taniwha is a mystical water dwelling monster, a sort of Maori Loch Ness monster, but in much greater numbers and widespread in the darker corners of the country. Wiki puts it like this, taniwha are large supernatural beings that live in deep pools in rivers, dark caves, or in the sea, especially in places with dangerous currents or deceptive breakers. They may be considered highly respected kaitiaki (protective guardians) of people and places, or in some traditions as dangerous, predatory beings, which for example would kidnap women to have as wives. Representations of taniwha appear on many traditional Maori carvings.
Anyway this triple headed taniwha obviously is not the fierce or dangerous beast of Maori legend, it is, as is totally predictable, a timid, compliant, tame beast of its alien US master....
NZ is now lying in bed (and lying to its citizens) with those other ugly and dangerous taniwha, the US, the UK and Australia - likely provoking China, by far and away New Zealand's major trading partner (about 33%) to take some form of punitive action in its trading arrangements. This is a NZ government that now resembles a sort of political lava lamp - remember those - immiscible constituents in ever perpetual motion, here heated by agitated political rhetoric, never coalescing to anything meaningful, and giving out the merest and totally useless glimmer of light.
