The extreme right-wing National Front says it is back­ing New Zealand First in the elec­tion campaign.

Accord­ing to their new national direc­tor Sid Wil­son National and labour are Twee­dledee and Twee­dle­dum so there­fore they will be sup­port­ing Win­ston First.

And what would quite pos­si­bly qual­ify as the stu­pid­est thing I have ever heard he also added “Mul­ti­cul­tur­al­ism will destroy the white race. And that’s geno­cide.”

After read­ing many of Labours mis­sives over the past few days I get the dis­tinct impres­sion that they actu­ally know f88l-all about almost every­thing includ­ing the so-called Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

Here are some extracts from var­i­ous Labour press releases;

which pro­grammes it will cut from edu­ca­tion in order to fund another Busi­ness Round­table pol­icy – bulk fund­ing of schools.

sus­pi­cious of National’s real intentions

from cuts to exist­ing edu­ca­tion spending

slash $350 mil­lion from else­where in the edu­ca­tion sec­tor will send shiv­ers down the spines of school prin­ci­pals, teach­ers, par­ents and stu­dents alike.

or the full hid­den Busi­ness Round­table agenda will be imple­mented with the dec­i­ma­tion of health, edu­ca­tion and super­an­nu­a­tion spending.

come clean on who is influ­enc­ing National party pol­icy, what they want and whether they paid for it

Get the picture….and that is from just 3 press releases. Futher it raises some seri­ous ques­tions about the left.

1. Where do they get off think­ing they have a monop­oly on good ideas? I mean it is seri­ously arro­gant for the left to assume that they are the font of all knowl­edge and only their ideas are the right ideas. It seems from their con­stant press releases that more money always equals bet­ter. The right how­ever likes to focus on out­puts not inputs. Like most busi­ness peo­ple the right wants to see that the cap­i­tal is privd­ing the best pos­si­ble out­come and con­stantly search­ing for ways to improve. the left sees the answers as a “big­ger engine”, for­get­ting the chas­sis and the wheels were pro­vided from the carthorse days.
2. Why do the left think the right want to slash and burn? I don’t get this one. It goes along with my com­ments above. It isn’t about slash­ing inputs but achiev­ing bet­ter out­put. Duh!
3. Why do the left think the right want to hurt New Zealand? and why would they do that any­way? I have always been struck by the lefts need to con­trol what we think and the rights wish to let us run our own lives…and some­how the right are evil and the left knows best. if you are the lefty ask your­self this ques­tion Why would the Busi­ness Round­table (or insert any other right wing noun) want to destroy New Zealand as labour says they will? Try to answer with sound logic, I know that will be tough to not resort to stan­dard lefty form and say some­thing totally usu­ally like “So they can make a profit”. But really even if you do say that my reply would be What is wrong with that? Busi­ness needs to make a profit to sur­vive, coun­tries are lit­tle dif­fer­ent. Cullen fails to see that, mainly because he is a clos­eted intel­lec­tual who has never run a busi­ness. Busi­ness bor­row for infra­struc­ture and use prof­its to pay it off, allow­ing them to expand beyond their cur­rent cash­flow capa­bil­i­ties thereby grow­ing the pie.
4. What is wrong with an inde­pen­dent party pro­vid­ing input to pol­icy? Enough said. the answer is obvious….Nothing!!
5. Why is ok for Unions and aca­d­e­mics to have pol­icy input to Labour and not ok for busi­ness peo­ple, indus­try lead­ers and other aca­d­e­mics to have input into National Pol­icy? Same as above.

I for one am heartily sick of Labour carp­ing on about hid­den agen­das and the VRWC thing. The right is not about destruc­tion it is about free­dom and building.

Get over it and debate the issues.

If you ever needed proof that the Maori Party are noth­ing but greedy lit­tle f**kers, check out their lat­est wail­ings at the Her­ald.

It beg­gars belief the dri­vel that is uttered these days from this party. How­ever it appears that they think treaty set­tle­ments have not been big enough.

There are two schools of thought on this one.

Firstly, give ‘em noth­ing why should we any­way. Now I don’t atu­ally go along with this one, itis reac­tionary and neglects the fact that there are some greivances.

Sec­ond option is to Give ‘em heaps. When I say heaps i really mean heaps, like if the Maori Party said 2 bil­lion would set­tle it then give ‘em four bil­lion. What ever num­ber they come up with dou­ble it. Make it full and final. and I mean full and final.

Now I can hear all you red­necks out there say­ing WHAT!!! give them heaps, over our dead bod­ies. But stop and think about it for a bit. How fast do Maori chew through the cash? Think Tainui for an answer.

The econ­omy would get its cash back real and I mean real fast with GST added in. It set­tles the greivances and for some will actu­ally help (Think Ngai Tahu on this one).

Think about…oh and I know some w88ker out there will point to infla­tion­ary pres­sures blah blah blah, whatever!!

It seems that Anony­mous aka bertrand bar­go­lias aka michael Wood the sooky la-la Labour can­di­date in Paku­ranga is get­ting upset with Cathy and cry­ing about being picked on by her.

Dear Michael

Stop post­ing anony­mous com­ments on my blog.

Your blog is bor­ing crap, the only inter­est­ing com­ments on it are from inso­lent prick and sev­eral other right wing commentators.

You write like an intel­lec­tu­ally hand­i­capped dyslexic one legged mouse and you are so seri­ous that I am sure even your own mother finds you dull to be around.

I am try­ing to get you more read­ers by refer­ring those who do not like an inter­est­ing blog (ie.mine, IP’s or Aaron Bhatnagar’s or Dave Farrar’s) to your blog, but alas there have been no takers.

Quite sim­ply – you suck. I am hon­est enough to just tell you.

Mal­lard has issued another mis­sive, this time berat­ing National’s edu­ca­tion policy.

Most of it is typ­i­cal nasty vin­dic­tive per­son­al­i­sa­tion of the issue and typ­i­cal social­ist directives.

The worst line that may in fact lead to a spot more bother is at the bot­tom where he says

* For the source of National’s edu­ca­tion pol­icy See Reform Direc­tions: Schools in Pol­icy Direc­tions for New Zealand Edu­ca­tion, by Nor­man LaRocque of the Busi­ness Round­table, Octo­ber 2004

There is no link to that doc­u­ment at the Busi­ness Round Table now is there any proof that this is indeed the source of the pol­icy. Mal­lard is sim­ply spec­u­lat­ing, unless of course they have more “bor­rowed” doc­u­ments taken ille­gally from Don Brash’s lap­top by a so far unnamed Labour supporter.

If it is true, then so what!! At least National sourced pol­icy input from proven lead­ers and suc­cesses rather than Labours sources of union bosses.

Any­way, a com­phre­hen­sive search of the Busi­ness Round­table site for the doc­u­ment proved fruit­less as did a Google search, how­ever I did find a Pow­er­point on the sub­ject mat­ter that was pre­sented to an ACT meet­ing in Octo­ber 2004. I even searched the Edu­ca­tion Forum and found noth­ing there.

The devel­op­ments over the last few days cou­pled with Mal­lards pre­vi­ous state­ments regard­ing fund­ing of the National Party ush­ers in a sin­is­ter new turn in pol­i­tics where ille­gal activ­ity appears to have be either insti­gated or con­doned by the Labour Party who are also now impli­cated by pos­ses­sion of the documents.

Clearly the world is not as Jor­dan and his apol­o­gist pals see it, Labour is not fight­ing on pol­icy and sub­stance they are fight­ing with per­sonal den­i­gra­tion and slan­der. So much for the “pos­i­tive” cam­paign that Labour so often says it is going to use.

If this is pos­i­tive I would hate to see when they turn neg­a­tive. i mean toni­hjt they are ridi­cul­ing Don Brash and John key with their Don/Key ad.

I mean, I ask you, Who do want in charge of the econ­omy in the this country?

A bunch of broken-arsed nobody’s that prob­a­bly don’t have a Mil­lion between them and who have never employed any­one from their own pocket ever or held down a job that wasn’t paid for by the state or a Union.

Or, a party with a cou­ple of self-made mil­lion­aires who have sac­ri­fied the cushy life to give some­thing back to the coun­try that enabled them to do well.

I know what my answer is I fol­low the Lead­ers and Wealth Mak­ers not the Dic­ta­tors and Wealth Takers.

Hamil­ton police are no longer auto­mat­i­cally attend­ing bur­glar­ies, as part of an ini­tia­tive to “stream­line” investigations.

“Stream­line inves­ti­ga­tions” = Can’t be Arsed

How ridicu­lous is this? The Police are “stream­lin­ing” inves­ti­ga­tions!!! How exactly does this stream­line inves­ti­ga­tions into bur­glar­ies where all the evi­dence is at the premises. This is just a rort to say they have “responded” to the report of a burglary.

Hamil­ton is cur­rently being hit hard by bur­glars, with 213 homes robbed in the last month, com­pared with 197 in August last year.

So much for the drop in reported crime.

“The police can only do so much about burglary,Burglary is a com­mu­nity prob­lem and police can­not tackle the issue alone. We need peo­ple to be vig­i­lant and to do as much as pos­si­ble to pre­vent their homes being burgled.”

What he didn’t say was because if you do that we won’t have to deal with it and the crime will have moved on and more impor­tantly it won’t have been reported..

As pointed out by Aaron B, Tau­ranga is defi­nately in play.

This morn­ing the Her­ald has the results of the famous Tau­ranga Boys Col­lege polit­i­cal poll. it is famous for accu­rately pick­ing the local results.

The poll pre­dicts National chal­lenger Bob Clark­son will win 40.9 per cent of the vote and snatch the seat from the New Zealand First leader with 36.5 per cent

The poll also has some bad news for Labour, which also pre­dicted a win for National in the party vote, with 42.4 per cent, fol­lowed by Labour on 27 per cent and New Zealand First on 14.7 per cent.

Even the Police are in line with the the rest of main­stream New Zealand in not believ­ing the Crime Statistics.

The prob­lem is clear to all, the sta­tis­tics are for recorded crime, but Kiwis are now becom­ing so used to cops not turn­ing up that they don’t even bother “record­ing” crime anymore.

Senior Con­sta­ble Craig Prior of Christchurch said he had crim­i­nals in his car admit to car­ry­ing out 100 car break-ins in a night, but only three com­plaints arose.

Mark Leys, a Police Asso­ci­a­tion rep­re­sen­ta­tive in Coun­ties Manukau, told of a man linked to 15 bur­glar­ies in Manurewa who admit­ted car­ry­ing out a fur­ther 60. Most had not been reported.

Mr Leys him­self had not reported two thefts of prop­erty from his car, and an expe­ri­enced Christchurch offi­cer, whose vehi­cle was hit three times, reported none of them.

“I know there’s so lit­tle chance of catch­ing the per­son. I think that would be the line of think­ing for many peo­ple,” he said.

This is in line with drops in recrded crimes like bur­glary, I know for sure that the Police in Coun­ties Man­aukau have dis­cour­aged the local busi­ness asso­ci­a­tions from report­ing sus­pi­cious activ­ity etc so their stats don’t blow out.

Hhow­ever the gal­ring sta­tis­tic which no one except astute blog­gers have reported on was the increase in vio­lent crime.

In the Her­ald this morn­ing an arti­cle about cam­paign­ing in Hen­der­son with Tau Henare and this won­der­ful quote from Scott Simpson;

“Some­times peo­ple give you one fin­ger, which means they’re vot­ing for you once,” explains helper Scott Simp­son, describ­ing him­self as an Oppo­si­tion “foot sol­dier” (he’s actu­ally a regional com­mit­tee chair­man). “And if we get two fin­gers, that means two votes.”

Tar­i­ana Turia has had a mas­sive rant today about the inno­cence of Donna Awa­tere Huata.

Fol­low­ing on from the other two idiots who spoke up at the week­end, Turia added that she believed that Awa­tere Huata had com­mit­ted no crime and claims the court got it wrong.

Of course Turia has also said they won’t be sup­port­ing National, well now that is a big relief given how prone to racism the Maori Party is.

Smarmy Steve Maharey has burst into print again.

This time accus­ing Brown­lee of mak­ing up stuff.

“Brash must either pull Brown­lee into line or back his claims,” Steve Maharey said.

Lets just do a lit­tle trans­po­si­tion shall we….”Clark must either pull Mal­lard into line or back his claims”
Then he lets rip with this one;

“These are seri­ous alle­ga­tions for Mr Brown­lee to be mak­ing, includ­ing alle­ga­tions of crim­i­nal activ­ity. Brash should either front up with the evi­dence or apol­o­gise for these allegations.”

Yep, maybe we will front with evi­dence when Trev does.

Steve Maharey said the accu­sa­tions had also called into ques­tion the cred­i­bil­ity of senior journalists.

Yep, as have many Right Blog­gers. Their cred­i­bil­ity (the jour­nal­ists) has been maligned by their taudry report­ing and spin­ning on behalf of Labour.

“Does Brash seri­ously think mem­bers of the Labour party have access to his emails?

Prob­a­bly, what with peo­ple in dark suits rum­mag­ing in the rub­bish and the Prime Min­is­ter being in charge of the SIS, you betcha he thinks mem­bers of the Labour Party have hacked his email.

Finally this drivel;

“These accu­sa­tions can­not deflect atten­tion from the fact that Dr Brash needs to come clean on who is influ­enc­ing National party pol­icy, what they want and whether they paid for it by sup­port­ing his leadership.”

Again a lit­tle trans­po­si­tion is required “These accu­sa­tions can­not deflect atten­tion from the fact that Helen Clark needs to come clean on who is influ­enc­ing Labour party pol­icy, what they want and whether they paid for it by sup­port­ing her leadership.”
