Dont forget kiwi!
A vote for the kiwi party is a vote for more power.(for us!)
Oh, and then there was Michael Cullen, the second most important man in NZ politics - behind Helen...two steps behind in fact - who goes on TV to say that the Privileges Committee made the wrong decision.
The fact that this was a democratic decision, made up of politicians of all colours, sent a slight shudder down my spine.
What will he challenge next? The SFO? Ooops, my bad - he's already done that. By refusing to publicly state his confidence in them. Based on what? An anonymous letter, allegedly sent by someone within the SFO. Gee that's really robust and credible, eh?
So, there you have it. An arrogant man who is not prepared to accept a democratic decision, or support an organisation that (currently) exists to detect and investigate serious fraud. Mmmmmm. Slowly, ever so slowly, the foundations and principles on which we were mostly brought up to believe in, are eroded from within.
If Labour are elected this time around, then I'm afraid we will need to adopt the position and kiss our arses goodbye (that's unless one of the Rainbow Room brigade get there first...http://www.stuff.co.nz/4702547a6160.html![]()
It's back..."Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
Apart from the main party lines the decision was from the Greens the Maori Party and United Future. These three parties chose not to believe Winstone. Now before any one jumps up and down on me just let me say that I'm no fan of Peters and I think there is more on the SFO than meets the eye. This orgaisation is going to be disbanded and it is not unreasable to believe that there may be some hostility from its members towards Labour for this. Cullen may well have grounds to have doubts about it's confidence. I seem to recall that the Nats will retain the SFO so if I am correct on this the SFO impartiality may be in doubt. I agree that this is speculation on my part. This aside all three, the Greens Maori Party and United Future may have cast their vote on the assumption that the Nats are going to ber the next Govt. In short their vote for Winstones guilt may have more to do with their own party positions visa via a coalition with the Nats than an actual belief in Winstones guilt. Another factor to be taken into this is the public perception that Winstone is guilty and their vote accordingly is for this reason so as not to be seen as offering him support in the coming election. Under normal circumsatnces I would accept the findings for what they are worth but with the election just round the corner I 'suspect' that there are other factors that all three have taken when they voted for Winstones guilt.

Who dis Winstone yo talkin bout. Mistake or yo lyin to us Skyryder
Possibly the answer is to withdraw from the electoral roll en-masse citing not an ounce of confidence in any of them.

I've been pondering my opinion on this and that is all it stems down to. I don't see the significance of the numbers in question, 50000/100000 are all pretty much the same in the big picture. He didn't ever say he didn't own shares in tranzrail, he bought them before he got involved in the takeover bid discussions (however small and insignificant they were) and then he sold them after he worked out that he was probably in a "grey" area as far as conflicts of interests go. To add to that he made a $110k loss. He could have tried to keep them quiet and wait for another year to avoid that loss but he took it on the chin cause he knew it was the right thing to do.
This whole saga is indeed a storm in a teacup. It is tvnz pushing its own agenda to keep its bosses happy and hoping the reds keep in office so they can keep on their merry way as they are at the moment.
Good grief! You swallowed that trite propaganda?
Both major parties have had Peters in their cabinets and Key would backpedal in a moment if it meant taking power or spending the next three years on the backburner.
The man is a liar and an opportunist.
That said, vote Green or Prpgressive but for ducks sake don't vote right wing: those liars are why your wages are so low today.
