I’m sorry, but this inquiry is starting to reek like a massive white wash.

What the hell just happened? Barely hours after Kelvin Davis shows his slavish devotion to Oranga Tamariki and promises to be a more captured Minister than Carmel Sepeloni is, and what do Oranga Tamairki do to their new Minister?

Like a prom night in a lonely rural community molested by meth addiction and alcoholism, New Zealand’s  53rd Parliament had winners, it had losers and it had the people it is supposed to serve as alienated and distant as ever before. 

Labour and the Greens are in real trouble. Barely a month after the election, large swathes of the Left are horrified by the utter lack of any transformative change despite Labour’s unprecedented MMP majority.

The sisters put up with a lot of shit, removing high prices for a product they must use is the least we can do Comrades. 

Damning report after damning report clearly shows Oranga Tamariki is a broken and counter productive nightmare and yet Kelvin is sounding as if he cares more about his agency than the children they steal.

Arresting a soldier to give the public a scalp isn’t enough, where the fuck was our security apparatus while this Australian white supremacy terrorist was plotting his atrocity?

Imagine the Greens were outside the tent right now and imagine the righteous fury they could generate attacking Labour over their support for property speculators and the inane spike in housing prices.

Jacinda won the battle, but she is on her way to losing the war.
