    can’t get enough organic milk powder

    Perhaps if Fonterra hadn’t ballsed up their supply chain by messing with their organic milk contracts they wouldn't be struggling.

    I'm from the UK. We had death duty. We also had CGT.
    Sky didn't fall in.
    It helped finance the Welfare State.
    It made British society more equal than it ever had been in history.
    Now UK is run by neocon drones.
    These taxes will be abolished soon.
    Welcome to our world.

    For the last six years Labour was was a fratricidal, jealous, self-absorbed rabble of prima donnas that was simply not fit to govern – and it was no secret, because they assiduously leaked it to every journalist who would listen… and so they listened, and the electorate listened.

    Yup. So much this.

    Farmer, have you escaped from Kiwiblog by any chance?

    His style is very similar to a troll from the Hot Topic climate change blog.
    Somebody get a hockey stick and we can have at him...

    I may have misunderstood, could you clarify it in any way?

    Sorry mark - can't help you with that - wouldn't affect me so didn't pay much attention. Details lost in the fog of war perhaps?

    a plan to get rid of ACC

    I was surveyed last Thursday night about my attitude to ACC - one of the questions was - would I recommend them if they were a private insurance company.

    Surely the Nats weren't that confident prior to the election day?

    Winston is in rapid decline. His chance at a last hurrah has just passed and he will disappear into the opposition benches and we won't hear from him again.
    He is a shadow of his former self and one who appears to be growing senile before our eyes. He is always good for a headline comment but his bluster carries little weight nowadays.
    His interviews in the last few days of the campaign became increasingly laughable and sometimes incomprehensible.
    There will be the odd commentator that will spout the usual 'don't ever write Winston off' but former lovers tend to be a tad biased

    Hone took a massive gamble with KDC. It didn't pay off.
    Unless Kelvin Davis stuffs up in TTT then Hone is finished as far as I can see - he can't really move to another Maori seat as he doesn't have the family ties. People who I know that supported him in the past have lost their trust. Quite sad really.
