  • Southerly: A Blog on Behalf of an…, in reply to Sacha,

    You are so correct.
    Bamboozling bureaucrats will always always defeat the judiciary and parliament given enough time.

    A year is a nano second to a an obfuscating bureaeacrat acting on "behalf" of a Minister..

    Otherwise the "aye Jeemy" idea has some merit.

  • Hard News: Jonesing,

    Espiner is a TV puppet that sells advertising, as are the other assorted media types.

    The ones with media names like "reporter, journalist, commentator, columnist" are merely advertising space representatives with fancy titles, (and better salaries).

    Never ever trust one with title of "Editor". All PR or "spin" doctors always aspired to be an Editor. They failed.

    Advertising is a war..

    As in al wars, the first casualty is truth, propaganda always rules.

    Sacha has an important point. Bureaucratic bullshit will always subvert the best intentions.

  • Legal Beagle: The Police Investigation…,

    "I didn't know the gun was loaded" is a defence that has been tried before and has had little success in courts.

    Here we have participant A handing participant B ammunition to use in weapons only available to participant B.

    Participant B dutifully uses ammunition , as requested by participant A.

    There are some unintended consequences.

    As a result participant A is required to investigate whether or not participant B had done something criminally wrong.

    Well, yes participant had done something criminally wrong but they did not mean to.

    On that basis participant A decides not to prosecute, thereby avoiding the cas being decided by a court.

    No charge, no defence of of "ignorance of the law".

    Who wins? Minister of GSCB.

    This National Key led government has utterly betrayed and corrupted New Zealand.

    Key is desperat to hide something.

  • Up Front: An Open Letter to the Labour…,

    You are so correct!
    The LP does not connect with voters. Voters do not turn up.
    LP caucus continues shifting deck chairs on sinking ship.

    No wonder Dalziell wants out like a lot of very disillusioned ex and soon to be ex LP members

  • Legal Beagle: Police: "Ambrose not guilty",

    Police opinion is irrelevant.
    Charge or not charge is police job.
    Opinion is irrelevant.

    Police behaviour in this non case is highly suspect.

    NO! I am not a conspiracy theorist but police people appear to be talking rather a lot about this non police event.

  • Hard News: Unwarranted risk,

    Listening to Ryall, Key, English is like listening to Enron executives and the defences of executives of failed finance companies.

    Bernie Madoff is clearly the mentor of the puppeteers who control Key.
