Rowing Club. And a wine auction for a Hospice seems nowt to do with Labour. So, so far ,there is $2000 to a rowing Club that Barker's daughter rows at and Barker introduced Liu to. Barker has never said he didn't know Liu, quite the opposite.
TBH, I'm now more interested in Susan Chou and what if any links she has to Oravida. She is one well off woman, who donates to National permanently it would seem ;) -

I was quite appalled by the response of some journalists to the position in which Jon was put.
And I was equally impressed that he stood his ground. The man has integrity.I wonder ,if you are surrounded by the horror and pointlessness of war, do you see that the bigger picture is about integrity when reporting. Because otherwise, what is the point?

Jon Stephenson
Plus Jon had to go out and defend himself when many should of had his back (other than RB who did). We have got Rob Salmond over at Polity in the "Slow Drip" with an actual look at Labours KiwiSaver Policy
Oh how refreshing! -

Thing is Chris, really ,a photo with JK ,whoopty.What is this? Gossip mag? It's not news . It's gossip and why does that start on the front page taken from Hawkes Bay Today. Is the "Slow Drip" trying to prove that NZers just dont give a flying toss As Key is telling the World? Yes we have no journo? Although Slater thinks he's one ." Slow Drip" is producing/ borrowing trash for the sake of something to print.

I find it impossible to believe anyone could ever have handed over a five or six figure sum to any political party with everyone blissfully unawares.
Hey ,you say you wouldn't believe Moira Coatsworth with this Labour Party challenge.
It seems that you ignore Barkers claims also
Barker again at the "Slow Drip" (Am liking Harold's new name RB)"May 3, a price tag Mr Barker called "an extraordinary and eye-watering amount, one that I would recall if it happened and I don't".
Mr Barker, who was Minister of Internal Affairs at the time, added: "Had $100,000 been paid for a bottle of wine at a fundraiser that I was not at, I am certain I would have been told about it and I haven't. That figure for one item is considerably more than most fundraisers got in total."
I'd suggest they are not "blissfully unaware", but trying to see where these claims are coming from and if it's undisclosed ,how is that supposed to be their fault for accepting it? The law is what it is.
I also note Foss is trying to sling dirt What's he trying to do there? Keep up the anti Labour momentum? Distract from some actual news -
Hard News: The Letter, in reply to Chris Waugh,
“Hey, we’re having this big do, why don’t you join us?”
Barker said he showed up, was surprised to see the whole company and felt like he was intruding. Not really sounding like Barker knew what it was at all.
