New Zealand's New Prime Minister, John Key

Well, I did not vote for him but in the spirit of fairness, we have to give the guy a chance.

Many Kiwis fear that John Key and the New Zealand National Party may take the country over to the right and undo some of the good work that Labour has done, such as Kiwibank, Kiwirail and Kiwi Saver.

Labour knew that Private business is not the saviour of everything, Tranzrail spent most of its time letting the NZ rail network fall into disrepair while funnelling the profits to their Australian owners, same with the Banks. Kiwirail will hopefully stop this from happening again, even though the government had to pay a pretty penny to buy it back into public ownership. Hopefully John Key and the New National Party Government will respect that.

I myself work in an Education support role and do worry a bit as to how safe my job will be under a National Government. I do not have anything against private business, I just think that private business should make it profits outside the zone of essential public services such as Education, health, Emergency services and even transport.

I hope that the New, New Zealand Government will not make sweeping changes to public services and respects that the private sector cannot fix every problem we have,

Good luck Mr Key, I did not vote for you but congratulations on a good campaign.

If Winston Peters is a Soap Opera

...then Rodney Hide and John Key are the writers, producers and directors of the said "Soap Opera"

National Leader John Key has said he doesn't want Winston Peters in Parliament due to the consistent soap opera. What I think John Key fails to realise is, this soap opera has been directed by people such as himself.

Winston Peters and NZ First would be an effective power in the NZ Parliament and if it were not for the constant mud-slinging by other parties such as National and ACT then maybe a small party such as NZ First would be able to get something tangible done in a fair election instead of having to constantly defend itself against other Politicians wild allegations!

Now NZ First has been 100% Cleared of the bullshit allegations by Rodney Hide.
  • NZ First Cleared by : Electoral Commission
  • NZ First Cleared by : Serious Fraud Office
  • NZ First Cleared by : Police
"Happy now Mr Hide ?"

This is a classic example of that if you throw enough mud, then some of it will stick.

What has happened to NZ First and Winston Peters is nothing short of a relentless persistent assassination of character and reputation.

This close to the election, it appears that massive damage has been done to Winston Peters and NZ First my Mr Hide and the Media. John Key supported the allegations and even the Green Party turned their back on him.

Now that the official inquiry if over, can we hear any apologies? of course not, John Key and Rodney Hide do not have enough integrity for such a brazen act of common sense.

I just hope that there is enough New Zealand voters to realise that in these last few days of polling, we can be sure of the knowledge that of all the crooks in New Zealand Politics, Winston Peters and New Zealand First are hardly one of them!

Go Winston! you have my Party Vote for Saturday, I hope that sensible Kiwi voters will also follow suit.

Winston is Gone, for now....

I like Winston Peters, but a lot of big wigs obviously don't.

Here he is being slammed by John Key among others for lying to the "public" about party donations when the National Party are just as bad! What about the recent recordings? $50 a week toll on roads, Lets sell Kiwibank!

The media have been blowing it all out of proportion with those National Party scandals and they are doing the same here with Winston Peters in the so called interests of "the public".

Well this member of "the public" doesn't give a crap!

The parties probably all get donations via shady dealings, they are all as bad as each other. What I care about is, policy! and what the hell are the parties going to do for the country?

I support Winston and I am voting NZ First this coming election, I think that this minor issue aside he would make a great Prime Minister, who's with me?

Muzzerino.
