  • Speaker: Why we should not dismiss…, in reply to Joe Wylie,

    Those terms of argument eh. I seem to recall Graeme Edgeler, in party-pooper mode here a while back, arguing that Nelson Mandela was in fact a terrorist.

    And (almost) everyone’s a liar, and ridiculous but accurate fact b and ridiculous but accurate fact c and… Quick way to end up nowhere.

    Journalist Nicky Hager’s been the target of a police raid as they try to flush out the hacker who downloaded blogger Cameron Slater’s emails.

    The NZ Police are to be congratulated once again on their finely tuned sense of where the real problems lie.

  • Speaker: An Open Letter To David Cunliffe, in reply to Tinakori,

    Didn’t see too much dissent from Trevor Mallard and co calling him tinker bell. I think Kevin Hague agreed it was seriously dumb but can’t remember anyone in the Labour caucus doing so.

    I think most everyone but Trevor believes he’s due to retire from parliament. Occasionally useful as electorate MP (mine, incidentally) but absolutely terrible in the house and the party.

  • Speaker: An Open Letter To David Cunliffe, in reply to jh,

    I think Cunliffe’s performance during the elction (with the exception of apologising for being a man) wasn’t too bad. Except that nothing he said resonated. It was like stew with no meat or bagpipes with no pipes. But that’s the fault of the PC Labour Party.
    Labour men are eunuchs.

    Yeah, those f*cking women, ruining our mans man party.

    Bets on whether it’s broken in the Woman’s Weekly or similar, before the critical or analytic media…

    The truth on sunday? Not sure he’d make a page 3, but while in eden, one does dress the part.

    Economics is not paint by numbers

    Private Equity has only ever improved industries it gets involved in, as we all know.

    Fonterra Co-operative Group [NZX: FCG] may establish an Equity Partners’ Fund that would source capital from investors for farmers in New Zealand and Australia.
