Haha what a knob. When in doubt just say the same shit over and over again.

 

John Key

 

The only Knob in this video is Duncan Garner. Key had just given a speech on trade to Federated Farmers, fair enough he would only answer questions on trade and economic policy.

 

For almost a week now the only reporting that is getting done is on this Tea Tapes shit and now Vandalism of billboards. 0 policy. It's pretty fucken obvious what was in the tape was regarding Don Brash. Also I think if Key backs down on this it sets a precedent for media outlets to 'accidentally' record conversations, announce they have audio and wait for the public demand it be released.

Well I think that JK saying he will take those questions at the end and then leaving before answering them is being a knob. His intention was obviously to never address them at all so he may as well have just said that outright rather than socially awkward penguining his way through the questions.

 

This is a guy whose primary job at this point is to talk publicly and do it well...

Garner wouldn't shut up and let other journos ask questions. Fuck I would be sick of it as well.

 

"He began by answering two questions about trade before he was asked about the secret tape recorded during his cafe meeting with ACT's Epsom candidate John Banks last week."

 

Then he got berated by Garner about the tapes. I just think this shit highlights how pathetic the media is.

He could solve this quickly by just releasing what was said. He says there is nothing of interest to the public there so just release it and lets move on. Problem solved.

 

I think the fact that he won't do that just highlights how pathetic he is.

 

Edit// On top of that, if you expect to have a private conversation at a press photo op you have created in an attempt to game the MMP system then you simply aren't in touch with reality enough to be running a country.

I sort of disagree with that. Like I said before, if he gives in it sets a precedent that if the media implore dirty tactics to get audio, video etc, then they will be able to publish whatever they want if they create a spectacle around the issue.

 

If Goff, Hone, Norman, Brash or any players were taped illegally I would expect them to do the same.

 

Fair call about the private conversation thing, it's election time they all want a photo op. The media were ushered out of the Cafe for the private conversation though.

Yeah I know they weren't in the room at the time but if they had planned on having a Brash bash I think they could have found a slightly more suitable location.

 

It's kind of funny when you consider the 1st version of the Police Surveillance Bill National tried to rush through in response to the "Terror Raids". Justify illegally tapping people by making it legal after the fact, but lose your shit entirely when somebody records you having a cup of tea in New Market.

Quality point.

Rapist moves in beside victim; "If I can get over it, why can't she?"

 

Big WTF at this one...

 

"Crofts told The Southland Times this week he knew his victim's address when he moved next door to her about three months ago, but claimed he had nowhere else to go."

 

"Judge Kevin Phillips, in sentencing Crofts for the offence, said he was a high-risk recidivist offender with borderline intellectual function. He had limited controls and a strong sexual drive, the judge said."

 

This disturbs me... I don't buy his claim that there's nowhere else for him to go.

Today America has taken a huge step in the direction of becoming a totalitarian regime. They have passed a bill that allows for the indefinite detention of anyone who is considered a "Terrorist" with out habeas corpus or the right to a lawyer including American citizens on American soil (reference).

 

The Department of Defence considers protesting to be a form of domestic terrorism (reference).

 

In other words, American's showing their dissent by peacefully protesting their government can now be labelled as terrorists and indefinitely detained without trial.

Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement

 

Wiki Link

 

Why is this not big news? Its getting signed by the EU today. Its basically an international version of SOPA & PIPA.

 

This effects us too, John Key has agreed to sign this international treaty which would effectively grant internet censorship on a global scale. Help protect your freedom of speech and your right to access free, uncensored information. Sign the petition, pass it on, spread awareness, the wool is already halfway over our eyes and its getting dark..

Christians egg on non-believers




It is an unorthodox Easter celebration but the chance to "egg a Christian" has created a stir at Auckland University - with a large crowd expected to take up the offer today.


Anybody who wants to can head to the University quad today and biff an egg at a member of the campus Christian group Student Life Auckland - but there is a catch.


"The meaning of the Easter story and Christ's resurrection will be explained to those wanting to throw eggs," explains a flyer.


"Egging will continue for as long as eggs last. One egg per person."

12pm - 2pm today at the AUSA Quad

Whose keen?


And should we take hard boiled or frozen eggs?
