I think one pretty cool thing about New Zild English is that we've got documentation of its development right from the start. That's a pretty remarkable thing to have.

the goss in Timaru, this was the only game in town last night
The Greens compare the government's patient concern for the welfare of Hubbard's investors (despite chances to stop underwriting them) with the short shrift delivered to those whose livelihoods have been disrupted in Christchurch.
So unthinking Government support continues, despite several opportunities to review it, to largely wealthy investors in SCF who were stung by bad commercial decisions by their company’s Chief Executive that had been flagged, and the Government had known about, for many months.
But the Government support for businesses and workers affected by an unforeseen natural disaster gets promptly turned off, leaving business owners facing bankruptcy and workers unemployed.

I recall a rousing speech by Bob Harvey
He's a good left leader, and adept at working with business and others. More like that please.

Also, perhaps Labour these days doesn't even think it's dumb.
I doubt Goff or King could credibly oppose privatisation given their baggage from the 80s. Who'd take them seriously?
