skono Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 In 1995, John Key joined Merrill Lynch as head of Asian foreign exchange in Singapore. That same year he was promoted to Merrill's global head of foreign exchange, based in London, where he may have earned around US$2.25 million a year including bonuses, which is about NZ$5 million at 2001 exchange rates. Some co-workers called him "the smiling assassin" for maintaining his usual cheerfulness while sacking dozens (some say hundreds) of staff after heavy losses from the 1998 Russian financial crisis.

perceptualChaos Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 John Key Tbh I think what happened both here and in the US had nothing to do with left vs right or centre right vs extreme right or whatever you wanna call it - it was simply a case of the majority of the population not understanding much about the political policies of the parties and just wanting things to 'change' cause their lives aren't perfect and they think they deserve more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people from either side don't know shit. Some fairly radical opinions out there from people though. Like people threatening to leave the country because they think it's going to turn into Nazi Germany overnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
