  • Hard News: Fighting On,

    @Peter Grower. As a very occasional poster to P AS,you do need to know that we treat each other with a bit more courtesy around here.

    Yes, most here are quite pleasant when giving Tom Semmens a bollocking. ;)

    And, what Islander said upthread, on the button.

  • Cracker: Strike Nine (and counting),

    Er, Craig,Keep ya hair on. My point was that Rodney played the media to show that a genuine business interest was as much as what Garett was pinged on. He is trying to down play the "Harmless prank" that Garrett called it and examples of nothing is what we are seeing. I think it stinks but I also think Hide is letting the media trash trawl the 5th spot on the benches because his ego is bruised. He can't help himself. he is trying to save his arse.I don't give a flying fuck who,or what the new property magnate has for tenants.Still think Hide is a narcissistic twat.imo :)

    explain to the media that Hillary Calvert having a brothel as a tenant is not even on the same planet as Garrett?

    Or even explain to the hypocritical leader of the Act Party. Oh that's right, they've known about it for ages and they had no problem with it. After all, it was just a harmless prank,
    Rodney is pushing the whole skeletons thing to try to ease his pain.To show the public that it was no big deal. He is a true showman. Show boy dick wad.

    Oh, so that's why Key's using the word "ethical" about Hide now.

    Here's a thought
    Key doesn't know what to say, He knows how he feels and let's face it ,he does seem pretty normal' almost boring.
    But I don't think normal is acceptable for our PM and I think he knows that.. I think he is bright enough to know what Garrett has done is downright low. As low as it can get, but he is stuck in the middle of his ambitious game and what are you gonna do? It's like a check mate .His way out shows him up for the length he is prepared to go to, for a vote. He is well aware of his choices. He like the others, doesn't care because tomorrow it's just yesterdays news.

    Full text of Garrett's resignation letter (brief).

    So he is sorry for the damage to his family and he is sorry for damage to the Act Party. How about a public apology for his apalling actions that left a family devastated, or would that go against the Act Party grain. Narcissistic twats.

  • Southerly: Refugee Status,

    What about going through Jim Anderton. Might be brownie points for him but last night he seemed interested on behalf of Housing NZ tenants. I'd get in his ear and get him for a voice at least.

    I spent first 6 months of school at Hornby

    I and my sister spent time at Hornby School when I was about 9. I loved the winter that year. Snow as far as the eye could see, and the beautiful Cashmere Hills. Was quite an eye opener for this young Aucklander. I got the best knitted jumper that year from my Grandma who was in charge of my brothers doing school in Papanui. Went rather swisho with my levis I must say. :)

  • Southerly: Refugee Status,

    David's meeting has been written up here and here.

    Hey, all fuking horrible for you guys I'm sure. Just watching it on TV3 news.Did anyone notice that guy (council, sewerage,Civil defence?) was just crying as he tried to address the residents. I imagine he has been working since day 1.He looked exasperated.He really needs a cup of tea and a lie down. ( I know it's probably impossible for Avonside with no water) I'd be showing up to ask Bob Parker about the need for water etc. I now feel really sorry for that man. Ring the Council demand answers from Bob Parker Agent Orange. Jus' sayin'.
    I'll get my coat.
