    I trust the system as far as I can see it, which requires transparency. You know that saying, justice must not only be done it must be seen to be done? Yeah.

    Eternal vigilance, etc.

    I know what you're saying, but I have very serious reservations about the current OJification of the NZ court system. I feel even if it were all broadcast/streamed live but media were banned from reporting or rebroadcasting it'd be a better scenario.

    Yes, sorry Mrs Skin 'disingenuous' was not the word i wanted. I was trying to express a sense of personal detachment.

    eek!

    I hear your eek!, but to me it seems to come down to how much you really trust the democratic system more than anything, if you trust the system, then I see no problem with that at least until trial is over, by which time Mr Xue's accusations could be conveyed in some context.

    It's also worth remembering that there's a whole lot of people who don't necessarily see these 'aspersions' as a flaw at all.

    The whole 'aspersions' angle sounds like it was cooked up by Xue Nai Yin (if I may) misguidedly under the impression that this kind of witch damning would wash in a sexually enlightened country like Aotearoa. From that angle Comeskey could just be a disingenuous messenger.

    Yeah, I'm wiith you Mrs Skin, or even why trials need to be held in the public domain. If this had been behind closed doors, it would have been a non issue.

    Avatar, Tin Tin, The Hobbit, Dambusters, The Lovely Bones, head of the film commission review, Weta overlord, family man, it's amazing. Maybe they should also get him to do public service announcements on time management.
