Simon Bridges performance and angry storming off from the media made Brett Kavanaugh look a lot less melodramatic but this was his best performance since his leadership begun. Simon’s position as leader is safe now, he has hurt the Government badly today.
How were any of us surprised by the bullying report into the toxic culture within Parliament? Look at how the…
Treasury have cried wolf and it appears the ‘wolf’ was a parked car…
Why is the Auckland City Council trying to quietly sell this building for such a cheap price?
Every single time Bridges is under the high ball, he screws it up. He over compensates for his weakness by being pig headed and doesn’t see the consequences of his rashness. This isn’t the office bar at the Tauranga Prosecutors clubrooms after a big win Simon, this is defence of the bloody Realm stuff.
Someone hacked Treasury.
The Government now faces a hacked and leaked budget which will over shadow the well being element of their political framing.
In this case we see Customs bullying and intimidating someone carrying a copy of the book so that they could warn and tip off Police before the book came out.
Why it has taken this amount of time to recognise the role the state has in these young lives is the real question here.
The Republic of Waiheke is split between hippie artist types who are clinging to the commune vision of the Island and the Auckland uber rich who have priced locals out of the housing market, it is this latter group who are furious that the crap ferry service is barely able to cope with the Gold Card scam and over tourism that makes it almost impossible to move in peak hour traffic.
If Simon isn’t lying then he has caused a coup upset and reframed the welfare budget in a devious and malicious way. It would also be a serious blow to the credibility of Winston.
If Winston isn’t lying Simon Bridges will be the hapless fop who has once again over egged and zigged when he should have zagged. If the Euthanasia legislation passes before the 2020 election, Bridges leadership would surely be the first candidate.
