Also of interest was Brash admitting that yesterday, when he said that he would not be stepping down, he knew that he was going to, today. Just a small…

Well,

"sniff"

maybe you don't.

Sorry, been out. And I'd really rather clap my own eyes on some of this stuff before I write about it, for obvious reasons. Hope you understand ...

Where they can easily be copied to a memory stick. For OL2003, this might be:

There's a previously unmentioned authorial hand behind the Orewa speech too.

Would that be an ex-Act MP? Just wondering.

I am also really hoping that the timing Wishart's latest little expose is just coincidental and that none of our elected representatives (or their proxies) have a hand in that.

Like, which prominent, working media figure forgot to tell us he was providing media training for Brash?

The books gets out and Hager doesn't have to go to court – the networks might still want to,…

Not that I'm really in favour of anything that makes the Nats more electable, but if there should happen to be a change of government I'd much rather it was a change to someone with at least…

have we established that Brash's emails were unlawfully taken en masse? By someone who had no right to access them?

No. But it's a red herring.

If Brash wants to establish that his injunction applies to prevent the publication of The Hollow Men, then he'd have to establish a basis…
