Since everyone does it and most are weak I’ll do some.
- Aaron Gilmore will return to parliament on the list.
- Katrina Shanks to not realise she should be doing a deal to exit parliament gracefully
- A 2008 intake MP will become a minister
- Another Labour MP will come out of the closet (but only because it was a bit crowded in there)
- The first SOE IPO will be massively over-subscribed netting the government millions extra than planned.
- There will be at least one by-election in a Labour held seat
- Andrew Williams will be caught pissed in Courtney Place ($500 bounty for video/photos sent to the tipline of him doing something disgraceful)
- Another Labour MP will be caught in a sex scandal
- A senior Nat MP not currently in speaker roles will be made Speaker when Lockwood Smith takes up his post in London.
- Trevor Mallard and Winston Peters will both be ejected from the house by the Speaker.
- David Shearer won’t make a difference to Labour’s poll ratings.
- Trevor Mallard will have to delete at least one Red Alert post on orders from Shearer’s office but I will get a screenshot anyway.
- Lindsay Tisch to do a cameo appearance in The Hobbit but no one will notice.
- Sandra Goudie will consider standing for Mayor of TCDC.
- Scott Simpson will realise he lives in Coromandel (and is just a backbench MP with no friends)
- Trevor Mallard to fall off his bike again and require a walker after becoming a part-time MP again as he returns to the pro-cycling circuit.
- Green MP Holly Walker will get into trouble for random use of non-recyclable coffee cups.
- ACT MP John Banks will survive a coup from his own caucus.
- Labour will continue to provide social media entertainment via Twitter, Facebook and Red Alert.
- I’ll still be the top blogger in NZ at the end of 2012.
