The rancid stench of corruption continues to permeate the Labour First axis after todays revelations that Labour and Winston First tried to subvert the course of justice over the Privileges Committee.
Winston must have some serious dirt on Labour in general or on some ministers in particular.
Information has come to light from WOBH’s deep throat Beehive and Bowen House sources, that WOBH is clarifying, that indicates the dirt is indeed serious, involves a minister, police coverup and Police NHQ running interference.
If the information I have received today is correct then it involves a cover up of an investigation by the police into a serious allegation against a cabinet minister. And that Winston threatened to leak this information out unless Labour ensured that he did not get censured by the PC.
This explains why Labour tried to heavy the Maori Party. Now that Labour has failed all bets are off.
It also possibly explains the current unhappiness in the Labour camp that is leading to a vertible waterfall of other leaks arriving daily in WOBH’s inbox.
I’ll keep you posted on developments as they arise.
