The Herald today has outed Mike Williams as “Batman”.
On October 13, an anonymous blogger posted to Labour Party-affiliated website The Standard. The blogger, calling himself Batman, is believed to be a senior official, most likely party president Mike Williams, although he has denied it was him.
“Batman” alleged that he had uncovered a story of “lies, conspiracy, fraud, theft, and a truly good cover up that has stood the test of time – until now.” The blog recounted Key’s firm denial of involvement in the H-Fee when he gave an interview with the Herald’s press gallery last year. It also accused the Herald of failing to dig deeper when it reported on the issue again this year. “Eugene Bingham’s digging has been with a teaspoon,” wrote Batman. “Either Granny Herald’s huge political staff is asleep at the wheel, or this watchdog has turned into a blue-rinsed poodle. Batman charitably favours the former explanation.”
The Standard and all the little “Robins” to Mike Williams Batman are thoroughly discredited.
The funny thing is though that a Mike Williams was actually involved in Batman the animated TV series.
