Judy Kirk, Party President, on Melissa Lee:
Pardon?

Okay, fine. Let's do absolutely nothing with Auckland's waterfront, ever.

There are a few fundementals for a good city.
One is to build for the people, not for the tourists. To create a party central environment for one 2,3,4 week event is pretty poor concept to start from.Did you even read the post properly?
The "party central" part would have happened anyway -- it's been in the plans for some some time. What the purchase means is that the wharf can be redeveloped for the long term, instead of being locked off again.

Today's DomPost editorial is also taking the line that sexual harrassment is just fine if the woman involved is a political activist. The blame of course lies with those trying to get some justice for the complainant - in this case Phil Goff.

There was a funny little spell where the wingnuts were rushing around telling each other they'd sell their Apple shares in protest at Al Gore joining the board. Anyone who did, of course, would have racked up an EPIC INVESTMENT FAIL ...

Umm, George Darroch is a Green Party activist.
Hitler was a vegetarian, you know.

Still not as classy as Orcon's "Were providing faster internet" ad. I think that one was even on TV.
Did that happen? I'll have to give our Great Blend sponsors a ribbing about that. Perhaps I'll make it a grammar-contingent deal ...

I was just going to reply on exactly that point, steven. Kiwis also invented the word I'd've (pronounced eye-div or eye-dov), a particularly ugly word on paper, but a useful one.
Really? It's ours? I'm stoked.
