Hard News: Calling the race before it's over, in reply to Joe Wylie,
true, and Mallard has also closed the odd school
as well... mixed messages (=sage mess!)I no longer think of Cunliffe, Mallard, Jones, Curran, O’Connor, et al as being True Labour, more as a bunch of idiosyncratic egos that Labour is riddled with, especially the older ones - their personalities get in the way of the ideas that need to be driven ahead, and some are seemingly very slow to change lanes or keep their speed up... a tad more humility and rabble rousing, please...

Hard News: Calling the race before it's over, in reply to Stephen Judd,
Biking distance...
...next year’s Labour conference will be in Christchurch.
We aren't worthy,
but we'll build a conference centre specially!
(Hell, Gerry'll throw in a stadium too!)Stephen, thanks for telling me, well hell,
probably the rest of the country, too.
I hadn't read that anywhere else .
That is news that either the Labour PR machine
didn't trumpet or the mainstream media omitted?
(Admittedly I'm only shallow grazing MSM lately,
and who can afford a clipping service?)Where will it be held?
- Can't see the proposed new ConCentre being open
(an abandoned (Renewed) school would be quite a statement...)and how many would be there?
- I'm guessing a lot of inter-party billeting...and I assume they'll spud in a new candidate then...
(plus the new State Insurance model we'll need by then...)I see they have started painting the town red already...

Capture: Two Tales of a City, in reply to Hebe,
shifting spaces…
That’s happening to me everywhere.
Every building I have ever had an office, studio or worked in, in town (9+) has been demolished now, bar one; the Old Chemistry Building, at the Arts Centre, and who knows what’s happening there…
<edit> make that bar two, I think the old Agfa building may still be standing in Cashel Street (but that was an after school delivery job…)</edit>
...things popping up out of nowhere
…from no where to now here
with no thing in between
and no particle place to be. -
Ch ch ch changes...
From a totally parochial viewpoint, I reckon Labour missed their chance to make some friends in Chchch again - I had hoped they might have announced a new candidate for Christchurch Central, so they could start to get known in the electorate - still I guess no candidate is almost as effective as the nigh-on invisible incumbent, National's Nicked Wagon or some such personage...But no, Shearer merely says: "... to the people of Christchurch: we are committed to helping you rebuild your city from the grassroots up – not the Beehive down." and otherwise it's Labour's weak policy to date - 'leave it to the girls on the ground' - which is not to denigrate the excellent and tireless work Lianne Dalziel, Megan Woods and Ruth Dyson are putting in down here...
