Polity: Flaccid balloon, mite-ridden bees, in reply to Rich of Observationz,
In case there's a need for the Crown to put down an insurrection led by Parliament. The G-G can stay in Auckland whilst the air force bombs the crap out of Wellington.

Yeah baby! Love your work Russell. Talking truth to power. I recall, Key refused to come back on my show when he got a harder time than he expected - would love to see if you can get him to front at some stage and answer some fucking questions straight up.

Typical response from centre right candidate:
"Leadership...Rates...Make it happen...". -
Brilliant. Love to help.

You say this, but there are plenty of people out there who thinks what he's doing is okay, fed by a stream of vituperative supporting babble from the likes of Paul Henry, Leighton Smith, et el.

Did anyone hear Bill Ralston on RNZ this morning? "Debt out of control"..."some one needs to step in..."..."rates, rates, rates." What utter bullshit. But if he keeps repeating it, he'll likely win because even though Auckland's rates are amongst the lowest in the country, who wants to pay more? Even if we have woefully underinvested in the city for decades (thanks to our friends, the CitRats).

Great insight Russ. A will to win but not at the expense of dignity and decency. I like it.
