John Armstrong On The New ACT

It is good to see that NZ Herald columnists don't collude. John Armstrong also looks at the new ACT party today, but takes a completely different line from Fran O'Sullivan. Armstrong can't understand why ACT would be wanting to make life more difficult for National and suggests that the policy prescription outlined by Roger Douglas last week might do this. He ends by warning that National might chose to go with NZ First and leave ACT out of Government. He doesn't explain how NZ First is going to get back into Parliament, which, of course, is a pretty hard question to answer right now.
