I’m the voice of reason here, keeping calm in the midst of crazy unrest and dysfunction.
I know all about words and how to present figures to the bewildered and confused. I know how to ‘diss’ the ‘dys’ and keep a straight face heh!
The soothsayer read my palm and assured me that I would be PM come October. However I can’t show you my palm because I can’t remember which one she read. But I have complete confidence in her interpretation, so that’s all you really need to know.
“I don’t know how many time you want me to lie to you, but if you want to know how much tax New Zealander’s will be receiving, just phone Bayley’s real estate Head Office Beijing.”
Eureka, I found a way to plug the half billion dollar fiscal hole in our modelling. Instead of Chorus switching off its copper network later this year, I’ll just sell it.

“You have nice figures, Rebecca. Busy after? There’s an Upper Room here. I think there’s a spreadsheet up there, if you’d like to join me…”
“Yeah nah!”
“These aren’t the tax numbers you’re looking for…”
“Yes they are!”
“These aren’t the questions we’re looking for…”
“These are my questions!”
“Move along! Move along!”
The Force is benign in that one
