@canefan they have a solid base of around 10% that will vote for them regardless of whatever insane things she says , while she's there talking shit like that they'll never do any better .
If you haven't read it yet see if you can get a copy of Mad Men by Steve Braunius , it's him following the 2014 election. He ends up at the house of some actor who had a small role in Lotr , Lucy Lawless and a couple of other prominent leftards are there too and Turei busts out her ukelele and starts a singalong of not given lightly by Chris Knox . I'm not making this up, Braunius is a very funny man and gives a pretty good rundown of how otherworldly the whole thing was.

@jegga i assume the minister simply said 'um, yes?'
He's probably still picking his jaw up off the floor

Any views on James Shaw? He seems somewhat moderate for a Green (or maybe just appropriately two faced), someone who has worked in something resembling business (even if it was just as a management consultant for Pricks With Calculators) and not just as an advocate for the devastated masses of New Zealand who came into contact with the White Man.
For someone with a business background he made a bit of a cock of himself here, even Labour thought it was a good idea and then Shaw opened his mouth and Cullen pointed out he didn't have a clue.
-
James Shaw is all bloat and no substance... his business credentials amount to being a sustainability consultant.... big fucking deal.

@jegga think this is the one that came out on Monday Labour would 'give' the seat to Greens, Little came out claiming there was no deal
Was a daft deal to start with, Labour just as well have bought .Com on board for all the good it seems to be doing
-
@taniwharugby the left are still claiming the polls are wrong too. I imagine if they were in their favour they'd say the exact opposite. It's worth recalling that when Shearer was their leader they were around 35-37% but he was too " right wing" so they dumped him.

They can "give" whatever they like, but unless Nick Smith is not standing again in Nelson - and it's news to me that he's not - then there is bugger all chance of anyone else taking that seat.
I can't stand Nick Smith, but a majority of Nelsonians seem to love him. Last time I thought he'd at least be dented by his shenanigans around merging the Nelson- Ta$man councils (his close ally the Nelson mayor got turfed out), but Nick suffered barely a blip.

My what?
Oh right. She deserves to be happy apparently .
In Greece.

@taniwharugby I hear you, hard to believe it's been three years. Seems like only yesterday he was giving someone a beating on the footpath in a p fuelled rage . It's these kind of memories that keep him alive in our hearts.

Lucky to be happy more like it, lucky her then alive daddy could afford the best lawyers to fight any convictions for being involved with P.
I wonder if travelling through Te Kuiti would appeal as much as Greece for her facebook loving fansChill mate, she's been through a lot....

@taniwharugby TR - you're in Whangarei right? Those cars seemingly are everywhere. Driving down River Road , Hamilton, yesterday morning, I followed a black Ford Territory with the same sticker on the rear window. I have seen it a couple of times now.
The SUV that meth bought.
-
@Tregaskis I am, but was the first time I had seen that one...always the odd other ones with RIP type messages on their windows.
This was a Subaru Legacy, not an SUV, always the poor cousins up this way

@taniwharugby I presume Little stuck out his huge Roger Ramjet jaw and looked glum?

Interesting ... new England boss wants to use the AB's model of internal leadership in the England football team. I could see this working under the likes of Beckham, Shearer ... but not sure if I could say the same of Rooney.
