I hope so.

The problem is that it emboldens the loud racist sexist segment of society that's it's pandering to; e.g. our (grand)parents who still complain about "all the Asians" or "the Murrays" or anyone else who "bludges money from the gummint".

I don't mind so much about pandering to the grand parents, but the worrying trend is that NZ First are finding support with the young as well.
