    C'mon, It's all been done before, history is just repeating it's self and it's not party selective either!

    Even the most loyal enthusiastic Labour voter should be able to see that Phil Goff was hung out to dry by those who were waiting become the new leader!

    I feel a bit sorry for Phil Goff but I suppose he knew that he was accepting a poison chalice when he took the job! (just didn't expect it to be soooo poisonous I suppose)

    My scepticism about the media stands, surpassed only by my scepticism of the current Labour leadership contenders!

    It will get worse before it gets better too, (if it gets better) unless Key fails astronomically meantime!

    Memories of a great era in NZ motorsport.
    Anyone remember the Morarari. - The Morris Minor with a Ferrari motor. lol

    http://www.nzfmr.co.nz/pub//The Cust...ides Again.pdf
    Chassis from a Ferrari Super Squalo, Morry Minor body and 327 Chev plonked up front. NOw resplendant as it's original delf, all the bits being reunited as a Ferrari, once again.
    The original Custaxie is no more, alas - the body believed to be dumped in a farm tip somewhere south of Auckland in the '70s. Coventry Motors reclaimed the 427 after the race season and it "ran" with a Flathead Ford for a short while........

    The pic is of the replica built up in 2010, at Hampton Downs.

    Personally, I always liked Dave Walkers Fiat/Anglia - a Fiat 500 with a hot 1000cc ford in the back seat - used to spin like a top with very little provocation........

    back on subject - John Key is a shrewd dick - but - a country gets what it wants, and, seeing he said he's retiring after this term, he will do what he wants, regardless of what anyone thinks of him, then fuck off into the sunset (or Hawaii) with neer a backward glance at the carnage he will leave behind.......

    Oh - and this "In what must be a record for broken promises, National have on Day 1 of government delivered a letter to Forest and Bird that they will renege on their promise of public consultation before allowing mining on public conservation land. Denniston will be mined, without the public having a say."

    You sound like someone I'd like to hang out with.

    The first paragraph the highlight in the second are a problem for a lot of the country. Despite the best efforts of many they still vote on promises and therefore they haven't got what they wanted but instead have ended up with what they should have seen coming.

    John Key? .... Ask yourself, what's in it for him? Know people for what they do, rather than what they say!

    John Key has worked hard and shrewdly from nothing to become a comparatively wealthy man who wants for nothing .... almost!

    The first thing he did in government was to restore the honours list.

    John Key won't be going anywhere without that they shall be known as The Right Honourable "Sir John and Lady Bronagh Key" no less!

    When you think about those that have gone before him, I don't think it will be too big an ask and they have all served the needs of the 1% admirably!

    John after all has proved himself to be a loyal servant of Merrill Lynch, and he is simply continuing that service by pretending to be for and by the people of New Zealand!

    Serving New Zealand is simply a means to an end .... watch this space and see just who's end!
