Just noticed that someone from Freeview answered a lot of questions for Geekzone readers this month.
It's a useful read.

No eating babies, yet? :)
Quite the contrary.

Paula Bennett just came off very well in a 3 News report.

Rodney Hide has now told journalists that bulk funding of schools will be investigated by the Leadership Council.
Anne Tolley's first act as Education minister has been to have to deny emphatically that a return to bulk funding is an option.
Hide seems to be somewhat out of control.

Reading The Hive and Roar Prawn, it is clear how much buy-in Tim Selwyn got for his political blog rankings -- although I'm still not sure exactly what they're measuring.
I know that The Standard does less traffic than us, but they've overtaken us in Tim's rankings. Whatever.
We had a truly boffo week (Weds to Tues) for the two elections, though: on the biggest day, Nov 10, 4700 people made 7500 visits and loaded 33,000 pages.

Forgive my terrible lack of Wellington connectedness, but now that The Hive has retired, can anyone tell me who the secret bloggers actually were?

Can I please have a big round of applause and a giant "Good Riddance too" for the absence of Lockwood Smith on the front benches. Yee har!
I can't imagine him being any great shakes as Speaker though.
Allowing for please-make-it-stop appointments like McCully in Foreign Affairs, I'm surprised at how much I like this Cabinet.

Big ups to Pansy Wong, too: Minister of Ethnic Affairs and Women's Affairs.
