    Janette and Russel announced today that, if elected, all members of the Greens will continue to breath in and out in the usual manner for the full duration of the term

    This is arguably in poor taste, given what happened to the Greens immediately after the last election?

    Wouldn't Peter Dunne be slagging off the Maori seats as well?

  • Sam F,

    I doubt Rod Donald would hold it against us and 2005 is definitely not Too Soon.

    As for the rest, I cracked up. Nicely done good sir!

    When did good taste become such a big concern? In the end, Rod is beyond caring and I'd like to think his partner and family have better things to do with their time than take entirely gratuitous offence.

    I think we got the point -- was anyone really surprised that Russell and Jeanette are only going to enter into a (figurative) Mormon ménage of inconvenience with Helen? Must be a really, really slow news day.

    Well, this is the man who wants to privatise KiwiBank, but that's OK because only real Kiwis will be able to buy it. Kudos to Geoff Robinson this morning to try and get Winnie to explain WTF that was going to achieve, but it's like trying to get a straight answer out of a teenager.

    National will fast track Transmission Gully, every dole bludger in the country will participate in its construction and it will cost $5 a pop to use.

    Then they'll sit back and wait to make a killing during the evacuation after the next earthquake.
