Nicky Hager

[MisterD]

Meanwhile, looks like our mate Whale was hunting down fellow bikers... nice of him..

Haven't we had the "person on a motorbike" is not the neccessarily the same thing as "biker" argument elsewhere on these forums?

The only real interest or ferver in this whole Niki Hager thing is media driven because without it the whole election saga was cut and dried and boring!

Without this crap they would have nothing to rave on about ... as it is there is still nothing but thats what they like to rave about ... nothing!

I will be very interested to see how this affects the polls.
Personally I think Key should have moved by now to ditch Collins and his Chief of Staff.

cleft stick though

If he does that he tacitly acknowledges that the Hager material is true, and that these lumpy minions did it wrong.

Collins is a pretty powerful figure in the Orklind branch of Ze Party too I think i.e. she has a powerbase that sacking her would alienate.

good times!

You really are in your element right now aren't you, it is this rather than motorcycles that braught you to KB!

Drinking games - seems a good old fashioned practice for motorcyclists to me.......

In most cases, smoke does actually equal fire, unless you're a Tauporian where, the very sight of smoke probably means the FBI or CIA are sending smoke signals to alert the masses of impending doom.

ah well, I spose it would be a boring world if everyone had the same values.

The government maybe, but I expect Labour will kick Cunliffe after it.

Or has she got some dirt that has the potential to bury Jonkey?

Doubt it.
He isn't going to be PM so that means he will be rolled.
Sadly that means there will be another pushed forward from the ranks of the union movement to "lead the great unwashed".

Grant Robertson. He'd be great I reckon.

Who's keen to play a drinking game?

If you're left wing - Every time John Key calls Hager a "Leftwing conspiracist" = Drink
If you're right wing - Every time John Key says "I don't know" "it doesn't matter" = Drink

See who has to drink more!

I'd trust what Hager says over what Key says, any time!

Which is why your opinion isn't worth much, you assume the party stance well before checking to see if the facts support it.

My opinion is worth as much as yours, not that I particularly give a shit. I don't assume any "party" stance - it just so happens my beliefs and views seem to coincide more with people who do actually care about their fellow man than those who care mainly about themselves - generally.
Is Hager a conspiracy theorists - well - Rob Gilchrist, the undercover cop Hager "outed" some years back and caused much strife to.....

Nah, your opinions are without fail informed by your socialist ideals, as are your references. They're probably of some comfort to another socialist, and I doubt you have a problem with being described as such, and that's just dandy, but you don't get to claim an untainted viewpoint from such an extreme position.

As for mate Hager, like you he claims to be something he's not: unbiased. The biggest joke is his insistence on being called a "reporter". He's a political agitator, a radical socialist sort of freelance politician who'd really rather his audience sorta ignored that bit and pretended his actions were those of a reasonable, impartial member of the fourth estate. Nothing could be further from the truth.

And as for Key, you might not like him, but that's almost a ringing endorsement coming from one so far to the left. But if history indicates he's contributed anything beyond the general duties his roll requires it's the generally accepted truth that he walks his talk. Which is a damned sight more than most of his predecessors have done, and maybe, just maybe that's why he rates so highly.

As for caring about your fellow man, you make the mistake typical of the left in claiming that anyone of a different persuasion cares less than you do.
