There is an anecdote about how, in Stalin era USSR, everything would somehow be blamed on Trotsky. Soviet economy didn’t meet 5 year plan output targets? Trotsky’s fault.

Anyone who has been active in Auckland politics from a grass roots level over the last 3 decades knew and would have be accosted by dear Penny.

Dr Liz Gordon – The witch trials
I feel sorry for Trumps, junior and senior. Don’t laugh. I really do. For them, the world is now populated by #MeToo unleashed. Unpredictable and venal women who, at the drop of a hat, will claim sexual assault in order to get what they want. Poor Don Jr fears for his sons, in a world where women have power.

National’s Little-Boy-Lost
It is Bridges’ lack of authenticity: the impression he gives of playing politics by-the-numbers and without conviction; that makes the electorate so unwilling to take him seriously. He can frown, scowl, pout and shout his defiance of the Coalition Government, and all its leaders do is laugh.
