  • Hard News: Dirty Politics,

    Danyl has been polarised by reading Dirty Politics.

    There’s no one comparable to Slater on the left of politics, or blogging. He is a phenomenon unique to the National Party. Key can insist that this is all just a lie, just a conspiracy story, but people who read the book know that this is simply documentation from Slater’s emails and that the Prime Minister is lying to their faces.
    ...

    Whatever the wider implications, the book has had a profound effect on me, personally. Something that doesn’t come across in the news coverage about Dirty Politics, and Cameron Slater, Jason Ede, Jordan Williams, Simon Lusk et al is just how fucking awful these people are. They spend their lives trying to poison and contaminate our politics. They enjoy seeing people suffer. They get excited by the idea of breaking up the marriages of their political enemies and ruining their lives. And John Key stands up and bleats about how everything they do is fine, and the people on the left are the nasty ones. Fuck him.

    The fact that Ede and Slater exchanged messages expressing concern at being caught, is fairly strong evidence that they knew that they had accessed the data without authorisation.

    Quite.

    I'm delighted when agencies respond to OIA requests promptly but I'd rather it wasn't only the ones selected by their Minister for non-transparent reasons.

    he has also heard from other public servants. This sort of pressure seems something relatively new.

    allegedly farrars

    I believe we've sufficiently established that's a misdirection on his part. see other thread.

    I’m calling conscious misdirection

    Same. And look how easily he has been given a platform for it already. Exemplifies the problem.

  • Speaker: Why you should vote, in reply to Rosemary McDonald,

    Parties publish policy for a wider audience than well-informed activists, which is why I was questioning whether they ever referred to legislation by name. Seems they do in some cases, but if they want most New Zealanders to make the link then talking about 'family carers lawsuit' or suchlike seems better than referring to an Amendment of a very broad law.
