Most cabinets try to keep the dirt out – John Key just let it back in.
The report into Judith Collins last year was a whitewash. The difference between an independent inquiry like the IGIS report that connected the PMs Office with using edited Secret Intelligence Service information to smear a political opponent and this whitewash are screamingly apparent.
1 – Not every witness was called,
2 – the most damning evidence was ignored,
The whole report was a whitewash farce with no real credibility.
Collins gave Slater information, but because that information wasn’t privileged, that makes it ok?
Judith was given a whitewash report, sat on the backbench for a year and has been allowed back into Cabinet. The NZ media are not telling NZers that Collins wasn’t held accountable last year making her return highly questionable.
This is about Key keeping an eye on Judith as the economy wobbles and the leadership starts looking less secure, it is not because Collins deserves a return.
This is about House of Cards manoeuvring, it isn’t meritocracy.
the last davos meeting that key went to had a waring to the 1% that the serfs are about ready to rise up as they have raped them just a little too much for a little too long, this looks like key has finally read the writing on the wall and is going to back out and set up collins to take over, expect the msm to start painting up the pig to appear homely, friendly, no nonsense etc so she will get votes
Global leaders at Davos hinted they would want an escape route if the poor rose up against the growing super-rich

Many people still hang on to the ridiculous notions that most politicians are not self-serving liars and that the corporate media present the truth to the public.
Under such circumstances, how can there possibly be any hope?
The ongoing disaster will continue to its natural conclusion -a fully fledged, overt, fascist police state, serving the short-term interests of a tiny minority, a ruined planet, and, eventually, extinction of the human species via selfishness and greed.
Will be interesting to watch the party’s popularity with voters after her return to Cabinet. I would not be at all surprised if it declines, she is such a charismatic character.
down vote gnomes at work today
Yes, and they get in quick too. A bit too quick – seems to a -8 vote almost immediately. I suspect they are all from a single salty sockpuppet (TDB’s IP records would verify this).

there are paid trolls, these ones might be as they dont offer any argument just vote down some thing that is opposed to the programming

Oh no, not more thumbs down.
Just being cheeky
Notice Gosman doesn’t even show his face after supporting “neither-confirm-nor-deny” nuke ships are about sail into Auckland.
BTW. Getting Judith back into Cabinet is succession planning. When Key loses the ego-flag referendum (and he will), he’ll storm off in the huff and who will be there to lead NZ into a new era of prosperity. Just Judith
Key will get a knighthood, or a diplomatic post in Hawaii. Obama will come over and play a few rounds of golf with “his good friend” John.
Kiwis will thrive under the jackboot stiletto heels of Just Judith and pine for the good old days under the rule of Jonki.
And Gosman and the other paid trolls beware, I have attached a spybot to the downvote button. We will reveal your true identity the same way Judith and Whale outed their enemies.
I just notice how goose talks a whole lot of sheet.
Wouldn’t mind if some one would out him. Be nice to put a face to the delusions.
I tried to put my face in the little logo box, but it just doesn’t work for me. Being a slightly older lady, I’m afraid my tech savvy skills aren’t the best. But I have a fantastic bullshit detector and I make great ANZAC biscuits.
In all of my 64 years on this good earth, I have never met in real life, or seen on a screen such an arrogant, self-important smug *^%$#@)_-++ as Just Judith. The unadulterated smugness curdled the milk that was sitting on the bench next to the wee tv in my kitchen.
There’s no hope for New Zealand if she steps over Key’s warm, half-signed resignation letter and into Parliament as PM. I’ll have to go and live with my son in Britain if she gets the nod from Crosby Textor.
He hasn’t downvoted yet, so there’s still hope. My grandson sent me the spybot thingy and then he skpyed me and showed me how to install it.
Goosey will soon have his face plastered over TDB Sam. I wonder what he/she/it/they/ s/he s/him looks like?
“as the economy wobbles”….. factor in also the slowdown in the Auckland property market. It has stalled, and if it stays stalled, or dips… Thank goodness the government has a bold and innovative economic plan… oh, wait…
just checked Methuselahs twitter and shes holding a baby, looks like they are going to sell her as the mother of the nation, the kiwi battler that against all odds stayed in there to be vindicated, not sure what else yet 😛 will just see what else they come up with.
hard to believe so many nzers buy this facade
The woman is a disgrace. She epitomises the arrogant born-to-rule-attitude which Aaron Gilmore so honestly displayed to the nation. The sooner she is retired, the better.
