For the record, none of these are the reasons I like John Key.

Except maybe the fact that he agreed to answer ten questions entirely honestly on a morning radio show, and then did exactly that.

Just posting the first things I thought of; I'm not familiar with Key's policy positions or stances, but until I am, I will remember him as "John Key the Kinda-Creepy Pony Tail Puller". That's just how it is.

Side note: I'm surprised John Key saying Mary wasn't a virgin didn't trigger a huge uproar among the religious right. Does New Zealand just not have a religious right? Or are people in New Zealand smart enough to not pay attention to comments made on a comedic morning radio show?

From what I understand, religion plays a lesser role in New Zealand politics as compared to many other countries. John Key was on record as an agnostic while his successor Bill English has said that although he is Catholic he believes his religious views should be completely separate from his political views. They both lead or have led the National Party which, although it is the centre-right party in the country, focuses more on taxes, reducing debt, crime, and privatization- more economic conservatives than social ones, basically. The only major party considered more right than them is ACT, and they're hardcore classical liberals who also are more economically rather than socially focused.

Interestingly, the National Party recognizes climate change as a real phenomenon and has policies geared towards fighting it. How effective they are stands to reason, but even that is more progressive on the issue than most countries' centre-right parties outside of Europe.

That's good to hear. I probably wouldn't agree with the National Party on all issues, but I'm glad to hear that they're at least a reasonable party.

Henry: Why do these 'special coal' jokes always come up? I used it for about one year back in the 30s for legitimate medical reasons, and I don't even need it now (despite what Sharon Miller has said)!

Considering the three conflicts we are in...

Nuremgard, Penguania And Antarctica, Percyton

15th in lifespan in the region is pretty good, I'd say. Though, I'm assuming they're only counting human lifespans, because if they counted engine lifespans, Percyton would easily be number one. Me and Thomas are both around 100 years old, Skarloey is 153, and Stephen is the oldest engine on the Island at 188.

You certainly don't act like you're 100, and engines who are younger than you (Duck and Gordon, for example) act older than you. I'm guessing age isn't tied to behavior in the engine world?

They aren't that related. Engine personality doesn't change much depending on age, and many engines have roughly the same personality their whole lives. Engines can mature and change their personality, but that's based on experience rather than age.

I should probably make a factbook of Soviet military weaponry I still have in service from the PLR Soviet Era 1970-1993

U.C.T. is 2nd, San Fernando Valley is 20th, al-Qarn is for some reason 49th (probably need to fix that :p), El-Aaiún is 74th, Imperii Americana is 102nd, and Chernarus is 119th: still says a lot that a war-torn hellhole, an autocratic slaver empire, and a corporate Slavic dictatorship all have longer lifespans than your citizens :p

I used to be one of those libertarian, free-market liberal types, now my views have shifted. I'm an authoritarian conservative.

Oh you have seen the light. You would love Unitary Republicanism then (my personal ideology that I base my NS country off of) and you would probably like my Social Mixed Economy that is infused with State Capitalism.

Yes, I support mixed economy and state capitalism. That's the kind of system the US needs.

It looks like to become a citizen in this region, you need to have a WA nation, something I can't have unfortunately. So intend in staying in my current region for now at least. I do intend on working with you often.

I'm doing very well,

We call ourselves Ædenists, it's basically heavy socialism, state controls a lot but is transitioning steadily into decentralism; yet it still holds quite a bit of central autocratic authority.

I am leftist when it comes to some things, certainly not when it comes to my social views.

They don't. Commonwealthers are hatched from eggs that inexplicably show up around the house in strange places, like the cupholder on your exercise bike or behind some books on a bookshelf.

Scientists are looking into the phenomenon but as they're not receiving any governmemt funds to doso, they're not looking especially hard. Plus, they're eight years old.
