  • Hard News: Last Words,

    This has been a disappointing election, police raiding media up and down the country, the pm kicking off the campaign with misleading parliament over the s+p comments, the country being held to ransom to hive off assets despite our dire history with asset sales and the dubious economic justifications surrounding the sales

    Further the machinations of act, and Epsom, from apparently the most ‘popular’ pm we have ever seen, just demeans us all

  • Hard News: A week being a long time in politics,

    In regards to the trade me forum, in my experience it is simply a mindless outlet for mass manipulation and is wall to wall with rightwing ‘operatives’, (a loyal and longstanding crew) making every effort to influence what could potentially be a very large audience comparative to other ‘blogs’ To suggest tm is a valid representation of public opinion is a set up waiting for a punch line ...

  • Hard News: The perils of political confidence,

    Doesn’t this all really hit on the key issue of this election, with the hive off of the country on the line, 20 year old failed policies, (and politicians – grandpa brashies) and the lack of any integrity, accountability, and reasonability, apparently inherent in our pm

    Hooten, farrer and slater, the three hobbits, will be going out of their minds to spin this, seriously, has there ever been a worse election campaign anywhere?

    Labour are not doing that well, the greens may have just chumped their good showing thus far, but the prime ministers performance has been abysmal

    Can you believe it, the radio gig, the throat slit, misleading parliament, the slow response to the ship grounding, and now this, the pm is losing it, if indeed satin john ever had it
