Too much noise

Written By: Anthony R0bins - Date published: 7:46 am, December 1st, 2014 - 36 comments

The next time Key repeats the lie that there was “too much noise”, I suggest that the interviewer play the audio of the event to the audience, and let them hear for themselves.

The week that was

Written By: mickysavage - Date published: 9:32 am, November 30th, 2014 - 55 comments

The past week has been a terrific one for Andrew Little and a very bad one for John Key, thanks to Cameron Slater. Key failing to cut contact with Slater is bizarre. It makes you wonder what Slater has on Key.

Armstrong still pulling his punches

What does it take for Armstrong to call for Key’s resignation, the way he called for Cunliffe’s?

Kevin Hague says, the government’s plan to replace state housing with “social housing” will make the affordable housing crisis worse & is “economically reckless”. The Labour Party have circulated a petition to save state houses from being sold by the NZ government.

Two guilty approaches after Dirty Politics

Written By: lprent - Date published: 7:21 am, November 28th, 2014 - 43 comments

There are two approaches to being a star of dirty politics and not wanting to answer questions about it. Both were displayed on Campbell Live last night by Jason Ede and Cameron Slater. And Andrea Vance has details on taxpayers paying for Slaters legal bills.

Two lies in 20 seconds

Contrary to Key’s claim he was directly asked about the Inspector General’s (Gwyn) inquiry. Contrary to Key’s claim the questions were asked in perfect silence. Updated with video

Textses

rOb somewhat scooped me, but here’s my twitter round-up of the reaction to the PM’s office releasing the texts last night.

ImperatorFish: A statement from John Key

Apologise? What for? I’m not sorry for anything. I have done nothing wrong. It’s Phil Goff who should be apologising. It’s Phil Goff who should resign.

Key’s repeated reflexive lies (and giving back double)

Written By: Anthony R0bins - Date published: 2:15 am, November 27th, 2014 - 162 comments

It is now clear that Key lies repeatedly and reflexively. It is all catching up with him. From the confusion of emails and texts that emerged last night it also looks like the Collins / Slater faction is back, and giving back double.

Cut the crap

Andrew Little invokes the phrase that is going to forever haunt our lying, denying and obfuscating PM.

Updated: Question time video of Little added, followed by John Key “lying, denying and obfuscating”.

Updated: General video of Little added – better in the house than expected. PM’s staff writing blogs for Cameron Slater

A Breakdown.

There’s a lot of smash flying around concerning the SIS, the PM’s office, OIA requests, Judith Collin’s and what not. So here’s a simple, stripped back, breakdown

Only on Planet Key

Written By: mickysavage - Date published: 9:07 am, November 26th, 2014 - 16 comments

John Key thinks that the finding by Cheryl Gwyn that his office helped Cameron Slater with his OIA request is “contested”. Who should we believe? Updated: Key will be asked this question this afternoon in Parliament.

Armstrong: Key’s Cynical Politics

Written By: notices and features - Date published: 7:50 am, November 26th, 2014 - 29 comments

Herald: The Key administration has plumbed new depths of arrogance and contempt for the notion of politicians being accountable for their actions, writes John Armstrong. Also: Andrea Vance

John Key vs the truth

Written By: Anthony R0bins - Date published: 6:51 am, November 26th, 2014 - 100 comments

Trying to dodge the fallout from the Gwyn report Key simply lies and refuses to accept the facts. He can’t get away with it. Can he?

Gwyn report

The Gwyn report finds that the SIS failed to maintain political neutrality.

What did Key know and when did he know it?

Key in for the long term?

Written By: Mike Smith - Date published: 10:33 pm, November 22nd, 2014 - 38 comments

John Key’s election as chair of the International Democratic Union is significant. Key succeeds John Howard who has led the IDU for the past 12 years. Key’s acceptance signals that like four-time winner Howard, Key plans a long career as Prime Minister of New Zealand. This news should be a wake-up call for the Labour Party’s review of its election organisation and party structure.
