Maybe we shouldn't sign then enter into bi-lateral talks with Singapore or with another willing to deal.

Polity: Buying a fight with democracy, in reply to Rob Salmond,
Actually, it is 96.66.
And I believe some of the "fraudulent" turn out to be accidental errors. Like a wrong line ruled by the poll clerk, or occasionally those with similar names doubling up.

Is it possible that very large chunks of money is flooding in from the very very rich Chinese who are allegedly looking for places to invest? (I don't mean that in a racist way. It seems to be a fact that such money is flooding other countries as well.)

One way to prove the Labour data/conclusions wrong is to publish accurate date to rubbish said claims.
Or, you cannot prove a proposition to be wrong unless you produce contrary accurate data. -

Well said talkie toaster in all your comments. Sanity and fair appraisal.

Speaker: Honest Bastards & Dishonest Cowards, in reply to BenWilson,
"We’ve become quite good at spotting what’s wrong with Labour, but not very good at agreeing on what they should do now."

We need data. We need a David Farrar of the left.
Well then how about inviting David to switch loyalty. He could be bought and you could trust him implicitly. Remember in Keys acceptance address after the last election, David received the first rousing thankyou? He won the election.
So who will support the call for David to become the Leftward Weasel? -
A great effort from the New Hope. Who is he? Will he be back?

I feel so helpless about the stuff that seems so wrong in NZ these days. What can I do about it? Not much but to see Campbell Live in action is to offer a glimmer of hope. Someone cares. Someone is doing something positive.
But now the screen is blank. Gone. Bugger! -
The issues that emerge come so thick and so fast that the whirlwind means that Opposition feels obliged to swat and far too many targets. The result for we voters is that it is no longer clear what to see as important or what the Opposition parties stand for. Try catching a whitebait with one hook. Is it possible that National have a cunning plan to scatter shoals of rather nasty whitebait deliberately?
It seems to me that Helen had a very clear philosophy and could pick the critical issues and we could respond accordingly. Andrew has to learn to pick his shots.
