There is a definite sense of continuity in Karl's blog posts, with commentary on Dave McArtney's demise due to the effects of illicit substance use/abuse followed by this piece on Winston who is fast becoming a sweaty, breathless has-been, thanks to generous helpings of the legal drugs alcohol and tobacco.Richard McGrathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13763002401676224819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8442430064359197279.post-73540889834010497812014-05-26T12:34:51.533+12:002014-05-26T12:34:51.533+12:00Can't say that the latest polls show National ...Can't say that the latest polls show National in trouble Mike-surely the lack of any coherent policies on what NZ First might actually do - not what they don't like and wouldn't do might be also in order. As for your comment about Winston being miles ahead of the rest of the country....wow, you really do have problem!Jigsawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13906156865367357834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8442430064359197279.post-79450402213124385392014-05-25T16:16:31.039+12:002014-05-25T16:16:31.039+12:00Mike (whoever you are),

I'm not - but if it came down to a choice between Peters and the Nats, I know which way my vote would go.Karl du Fresnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05054853925940134404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8442430064359197279.post-17977086246070498862014-05-25T12:31:31.476+12:002014-05-25T12:31:31.476+12:00Never heard so much nonsense myself as the main li...Never heard so much nonsense myself as the main line commentators turn on him when they realise that their boys the Nats are in trouble. So the Du Fresnes, Hoskings and others come up with the stuff that has made this country a laughing joke for so called independant commentary.<br />The Jimmy Saville comment was extreme no doubt but where have the commentators been over Minister Collins, GSCB, Dunne and Banks. It is a shambles and not one critic anywhere. Peters is in election mode working like crazy and its no wonder he is having a few problems. He is miles ahead of most in this country and the likes of the media are in for a big surprise this election. They have missed and dissed Peters before and he has made idiots of them all.

The readiness of the speaker to turn off his microphone has robbed him of one of his best weapons-the ability to get in a parting shot. I think that age and a certain lifestyle are beginning to have an effect on the man. Of course there is no one else in his party that has more than the slightest ability in the house and this also shows. Even if he does get back this time it will surely be his last.Jigsawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13906156865367357834noreply@blogger.com
