Key does a runner

[Skyryder]

Fronts up in Taurangia for a bit of electioneering, Winston shows up and Key runs away leaving his minders. What a wuss. The man is ball-less.

Seems the latest dirt is released, I don't really think it is dirt though..... Just dribble.

I also happen to think that after both leaders debates, Key has no need or interest in running off. He has his facts fine tuned, he has the full picture in his head and he truely understands the situation that this country is in. He also has no problem portraying his stance from any angle. John Key has no reason to run from anybody, he's clued up.

UPDATE

Turns out that key did not want to lower his election efforts to verbal scrapping of an unadmirable kind. Typical of a desperate man like Winnie to try desperate measure. Just because his own chances is ruined, he's trying to ruin Key's chances at the same time. What a loser Winnie.

Saw that thing about old Winnie on the news, quality entertainment...

Shame we have to trust these pricks to run the country

Helen is stating it's proof the National would have sent troops to Iraq. Who cares and besides, New Zealand went to Iraq, half the country knows that the SAS went in under secrecy signed off to do so by the Labour government and signed off personally by - Helen Clark LOL!

I doubt if this is anyone from from Labour as Key claims. The fallout would be catastropohic if National Id'd the taper coming from Labour. Keys response is predictable. If you don't know the source blame someone who might...........some will believe.


But I agree if this is the best...............better off having not been taped.

I'd bet anything it's nobody but Labour!

I bet Helen's spewing that she did the dirty on Tariana Turia and hung her out to dry previously. Now, when she needs Tariana, Tariana is hanging Helen out to dry in return! LOL - Gotta love politics and this circus of a labour party!

Big Ups to Tariana Turia!!!!

There's no love lost between those two. But Sharples got more political nouse than TT will ever have. Clark's flippancy does her no good.

Still Key would not take on Winstone in his own turf. Muldoon must be turning in his grave.

Not quite - he didn't want to give winnie a photo op.

To be fair - I'd do anything to avoid talking to the bastard as well.

Key had a chance to take on Winnie in his own home town. No politican that has any self respect and confidence would do what Key did. Bottomline it's not the photo op that Key was afraid of it's that he would come off second best in front of the cameras. Key might be smooth talker and people pissed off with Clarke but his actions by leaving his minders to deal with Winstone says more about Key than any defeat at Winstones hand. Shit all he had to do was to carry on as normal and ignore Peters. Winstone would have made a fool of himself but Key did not even have the political nous for that.

Ms Clark would have given Winston a dead leg and got on with the job.

How on earth could anyone have a problem with that statement?



I mean, it's arguably a flawed perspective, but it just sounds to me like someone thinking out loud about the situation. And, after all, Mr English is the finance man, not the foreign policy man.

Labour really are grasping desperately at straws, aren't they?

HAHAHA, yeah man.

I think it was a smart move for John to evade Winston. There is nothing to be gained entering a slinging match with Winston and plenty to be lost, and quaint concepts like facts and truth aside, have you ever seen Winston LOOSE a slinging match? I do not think so.

hahaha, dead leg.. lol

Bear in mind the context too, this is from waaay back when Putin was driving his tanks around Georgia...Clark's being f-ing hypocritical too, considering she sent the SAS into Afganistan without a UN mandate.

The secret taper's been identified as some greenie or other (check Whaleoil for details). It's blindingly obvious labour are involved given the coincidence of the content of this tape and the "Two Johns" ads which "just happen" to be running.

Helen said she would never send troops without UN mandate and she can be trusted.

The SAS were on HOLIDAY in Afganistan and they were distributing food, and crayons at the school, and rebuilding a hospital.

You can trust Helen, cos she told me so on the telly.
