Brash quits

by Whaleoil on November 29, 2006

Don Brash has resigned from Parliament.

[quote]He said he had no regrets about his decision to enter politics.

"I feel very good indeed about my four-and-a-half years here," he said. But he admitted to feeling some sadness about his decision.

"I've come to the conclusion that now is the right time for me to leave Parliament and I informed John Key of that earlier today.

"I entered Parliament in 2002 with the intention of making a difference and I leave believing that I've done that. The National Party is in great shape to win the next election and I believe that debate about economic policy and about the Treaty is more mature and more realistic than it was five years ago."[/quote]

Thanks Don for all you have done.

    till don't get it do you.

    about what the "most corrupt government in NZ" actaully means.

    It seems Key has now accepted the current government as legitimate, talking about bi-partisan (i.e. Labour, and supporting Labour) on foreign policy, defense, etc etc — and Helen has congratualted Key.

    But with teh Maorimander, government funding and all the rest, Key will be gone after the next election just like Don before him.

    The Don was a good man, who wasn't prepared for the sheer dirtiness of the pinkos; but many of us weren't.  It's been a painful lesson into how dirty the pinkos are prepared to be to hold onto power. The 'whatever it takes' mentality is the Left's morality.
     
    Let us all hope that Mr Key is prepared.
