In the 1990s there is far greater anger about the failure of capitalism, and the Labour and National governments that manage it, to deliver the goods. The reality for workers, beneficiaries, Maori and students has been falling incomes and rising debt. Most recognise that the New Right policies of Labour and National have only served to benefit the small wealthy minority that rules our society. But most also thought that New Zealand's first MMP election would bring about real change.
