Hey John Key , hear a shuffle of feet in the night ? No ! Labour just snuck past you . They are less " Red " than National now . Gonna keep saying " No " to each and every suggestion that whizzes past yer lug-holes ? Are you related to Queen Helen , her cousin , or nephew . There is a resemblance of style .

Roger..Roger.

RED, BLUE, all as GREEN as GRASS and CLUELESS.

Not a true worker or leader amongst em.

They do not ACTUALLY know what is needed.

What is actually needed is a PLAN, with FORESIGHT and LONG TERM goals, not short term PATCHES.

But then I would not get any HUMOUR out of all this. And that is ALL that we can ACHIEVE, with this lot.

Same DECK CHAIRS, SAME TITANIC. SAME ICEBERG, SAME PATCHES.

Different CAPTAIN & CREW and GROUND HOG DAY, bickering over the words, coming over the TANNOY, with the OLD CREW.

Head for the lifeboats...and bail yerself out....when that starts leaking. .....GUYS.

My plan...my advice.....and LAUGH.

This lot could BANKRUPT, MR BUFFETT.....with their MAKE WORK SCHEMES.

Unfortunately they are more like BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER instead.....all MAKE BELIEVE...and NO WORK.

WAKEY WAKEY NZ......Sold down the RIVER by a pack of IDIOTS.

DAM....not IN-ACT-ION....or is that DAMN.

Have a good day. That is all I can hope for.

Unfortunately, the DEPRESSION is mounting as the STORM approaches.

Still we can get MAORI to plant a few trees..for JOHNNY....eh......HONE-Y

That might hold off the real problems of STATE for even more DIVISIVENESS.

BICKERING...to take place on the new good ship NODDYPOP, sailing to the RESCUE.

Jump ship...seems an OPTION.

HO HUM.

Key has rubbished Treasury at every turn. They may as well turn off their terminals and lights and shut down for the duration. Bollard has entered the arena and flashed his new tools for us to see...something to keep the peasants happy...an expectation of an end to the property ponzi economy...fat bloody chance of that....tools that will never be used without the approval of the banks because the banks have the economy and the useless govt in a trap. "Mess with us and we pull the pin on the grenade Labour helped us to glue under the whole stinking economy"...Get the message?...So Key is getting his instructions from the banks and that is why he has dismissed the Treasury reports...Treasury advice can be seen as a threat to the power and profits of the banks. We now live in a neo feudal economy where an increasing number of families are working to feed the banks. Instead of banks providing a service in the economy...they have become the economy. Every policy action coming from the Beehive will be designed to keep the banks safe and protect their profits.

Bernard -- I came out in support of Goff's comments yesterday thinking like you that an open debate on much needed changes would be beneficial .But this morning goof Goff has come out saying Labour will not bring their thinking out into the open until just before the next election "like most political parties do ". So he's not interested in NZ's future at all -- its just a continuation of their petty political games.

Wally :I think you have a point. NO is a big part of Key's vocab.

RT - but not too many do that here - sadly.

Wise words form Wally.
