Via: BBC:

That subject turns out to be the suicide of New Zealand. No not suicide in New Zealand but a proposal to cash in the country’s independence and become instead, the seventh state of the Australian commonwealth. An opinion poll has suggested that no less than one in four New Zealanders are in favour of this startling departure, and fully a half of the polled want to begin serious debate about it.

    I’d love to know the way those questions were phrased, because as a kiwi I’m finding it hard to believe those numbers.

    Ditto.

    I suspect if anyone tried to pull this off they’d find the people of New Zealand waking up from their slumber of the last 25 years and uniting across the board in opposition. Or have I been away for so long I’m ignorant of how deep the rot of Sky channel, etc. has set in?
