Sorry, Kyle, what unwritten law have I gone & transgressed now?
Was it the sheer 'groan-ability' or just the peurile smuttiness? Or something else?

The duel, if over a woman rather than politics, could involve cross beaus.
(Does Albert get tired of being mounted?)

If Will Tell is involved, it will be crossbows, shurely?

As one of "Mr Brown's" supposedly pre-shrunk customers I must say I hadn't noticed that Big Russ does religion to any noticeable extent.
So the lower-case mr jarvie can 'p forrester' off IMO.

I'm not trying to push any particular line here, just defending Russel Norman's reference to Shearer being the 'grey man'. I'm definitely a red/green voter and I don't live in the Mt Albert electorate so I don't have an axe to grind over this. I will be interested to see how it pans out as I see problems with Labour's (Goff's?) strategy in ignoring local party stalwarts in favour of someone who could be seen to be "the boss's man". And any implication/inference that the Greens should sit this one out to give Labour a free ride isn't going to cut the mustard after the perceived slights of the Greens during the last Labour term.
As has been mentioned before, it is up to the voters, no-one else. And I'm sure the post-election analysis will be full of 'ifs', 'buts' and recriminations.

I would happily wager that the electors of Mt Albert know more about Russel Norman than they do about David Shearer.
-
I think Russel Norman has every right to describe Shearer as a 'grey man' - he is Norman's opposition in this byelection and he is effecively colourless to most Mt Albert voters, having been flown in from overseas at the behest of party leaders and not at the invitation of the local electors.
Or does Labour support mean that all objectivity is lost?

Won't somebody think of the swine?

And 'they' have north, south and central America.
and swine flu, natch. -
'They' being the Mexicans, that is.
