Really will it make such an earth shattering difference? I think not.

More of the same lets pay some attention to something that takes the spotlight of something more important.

Very true... let's get back to figuring out a way to destroy capitalism for the benefit of civilisation.

Certainly took the spotlight of the assets sales and the Solid Energy situation.

After all the Chinese just want the coal and are happy to supply there own miners.

Wow it will be awesome for a chance do buy a slice of Meridian Energy

Wonder if we will sell the Hospitals before we get rid of ACC.

It always happens...

Whether Labour or National, it seems to be a Government tactic to serve up something juicy and contentious like the anti-smacking bill or gay marriage, or an MP putting his/her foot in his/her mouth, or an MP assaulting another to take the public's mind off deeper and more damaging issues like increasing election funding, government FUBARs [e.g. Kim Dotcom], asset sales, trade agreements and the like.

OMG it's the tin foil hat brigade WTF is going on... don't forget the drugs testing of bludgers, kiwirail staff, SCF debacle, millions wasted defending branding rights for tobacco, billions wasted building more roads for more fuckin cars, road user charge hikes (our vehicles are too fuel efficient so they need to get their $ from us somehow), lending money to the IMF, Poverty not being addressed and not even a blip on anyone's radar, Chch still not being rebuilt and last, on this list, but by no means least the Kiwi's that are dying overseas to protecting such a sterling way of life. Wonder what will be next.

True!

It's all a political circus planned to be a distraction from the real shit they are dishing up ... it's planned and we swallow it every time!

The Kiwi electorate is numb from the waist up now anyway and any political party with a chance of making the cut is socialist by nature!

Regardless of what they pretend to be or say they are, the results are almost always identical, that is the major constant, damn it!
