Adventures of Don Juan move Coalition talks begin this week and we can expect an official Government arrangement within 2 weeks. However, it has been made pretty clear by National party leader John Key that National will team up with Act, and talk with both United Future and the Maori Party to create a Government.
While the above are just the preliminary results – special votes must be counted in order for the Government to be officially sworn in – political commentators do not expect the results to change significantly. While the stated confirmation of Government date is November 18, Prime Minister-elect Key wants to fast track this in order to best deal with the current world financial crisis.
