Fun fact: Colin Craig used to work in the Maori Department at AUT, but he opposes the MCA Act and the Maori seats.
Morgan Godfery @MorganGodfery
Yet he supports Kura Kaupapa and Kohanga Reo. But then he opposes the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People. Conflicted much?
I would like to state for the record that I am willing to talk with Colin Craig. There are many things I would like to say to him.

I imagine Colin Craig is the sort of person who has his tea weak, his meals plain and his politics dull #PopPsychology #rtpt
Sports Freak @Sportsfreakconz
What’s Colin Craig’s policy on reintroducing the six o’clock swill?
Key wants to look at rape prevention education in schools. I bet his new best bud Colin Craig has got something stupid to say about that.

Colin Craig scares the bejeezus out of me. I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley #itstheteeth
Graeme Edgeler @GraemeEdgeler
The Conservatives have increased their support by 0.15 points over the last election. Look out for them at the 2044 election!
Colin Craig thinks "mandatory parental control of internet access" is the solution to rape. I don't even. #wtf #rapeculture #ict
Colin Craig: "Of the 2000 [Treaty claims] that are there, I find it very hard to believe that more than a handful are really genuine"
Never mind that people are getting this worked up about a poll that placed the Conservatives below the margin of error. #rtpt
People bitching about MMP = Colin Craig: STFU. Morons, fuckwits, arseholes and troglodytes need representation too. Democracy, bitches!
Dan Satherley / KOSH @radioovermoscow
I'm surprised Colin Craig even believes in the "circulation of the planets". Doesn't the sun revolve around us, or something?
Come on paid pundits, get with the punditing about 'what 'middle NZ' thinks of Colin Craig' and 'what happens next' already.
best antidote to colin craig? himself. just let the man talk. #tv3nz
Jordan McCluskey @JordanMcCluskey
I like Property Rights, Science and Human Rights. Colin Craig does not. Do not vote for him.
Important analysis missed by 3 News this evening: Conservatives are still less than the margin of error.
First journo to ask Colin Craig about the #DevilBeast gets a funny answer.
Colin Craig reckons the orbits of the planets cause climate change. Dear oh dear. A deal w Craig will cost Nats party votes they can't spare
Dan Satherley / KOSH @radioovermoscow
Should we assume Colin Craig meant ocean and wind patterns? Or did he really mean astrology? #circulationoftheplanets
Nathaniel Manning @NilJManning

"Colin Craig has come up as a potential partner" I see what you did there, 3 news
Colin Craig is ok with the phrase "Forming a coalition with National" but would take huge offense to the phrase "Getting into bed with Key"
Patrick Gower @patrickgowernz
Amazing what a bit of chit-chat from the PM can do - Colin Craig's Conservatives up to 2.8%.
Joshua Hitchcock @jcphitchcock
National-Conservatives 2014. At least we have 12 months to really consider the ramifications of that.
PM contemplating a strategic election alliance with Colin Craig. Like those US sitcoms where the dateless dweeb takes his Mom to the prom.
Colin Craig says Conservatives are NZ's equivalent to UKIP - surely a warning to Key about even thinking of dealing with these nutters
I always have to check Colin Craig's tweets to see if they're from a parody account. They never are. #ColinCraigPredicts
