New Zealand politics brief explainer:

One person, one vote.

The person is the oldest, crustiest, most cooked politician in the country: Winston Peters.

He decides who gets to be the Prime Minister: an uninspiring bloke most people don't like called Chris who leads a bland centrist party that works hard to stand for nothing at all. The party's colour is either blue or red.

Chris then has to ask Winston for permission for pretty much anything. Because Winston is always grumpy, Chris decides to not do much at all.

Three years later we do it again.

Democracy!

Hey music lovers, another fortnight, another great playlist with a new record of 34 tracks... you're making me work 🤣

Two different versions of Ned's Atomic Dustbin Grey Green Cell made the list and two different XTC tracks made it too.

If I've missed your song or you know of a video I've missed, let me know.
