What you get when you let a pinko run law and order policy

When you let pedo-friendly pinkos run law and order you get the debacle we had this week on alcohol reform by Pedobear Simon Power.

He should resign. And go back to defence.

“where Britain, the United States and Australia go, we go”

At least he understands we are on the blue team, not the red team, or the yellow team.

There has also be a poignant lesson from across the Tasman in the past week

Those who follow Australian politics know that Tony Abbott turfed out Malcolm Turnbull in a spill about 9 months from the election. Abbott won the leadership because Turnbull was getting a hiding from Rudd, and the coalition had real doubts about climate change. The graph below is pretty forthright. Abbott takes over a train wreck, and miraculously fixes it up and gets within a whisker of winning.

The difference between Abbott and Turnbull is Abbott understood that being in opposition means opposing. Not pandering to the doctors wives etc, but getting in and beating the crap out of your opponent, day in, day out, so they fear going into the house or fronting the media because you have put them under so much pressure they start making mistakes.

Unfortunately for Tony he opposed so well the ALP knifed Rudd and put in Gillard, and the dynamics of the race change having a woman prime minister. Regardless of this, Tony gave the Libs a chance by hammering away at the ALP, and now has a chance of being prime minister.

If readers think about what this means in New Zealand, at some stage National will go into opposition, and at some stage John Key will no longer be leader. National MPs then will have to choose who is going to lead them against Labour. If we follow the Australian experience, a wet or a member of the liberal elite is going to be useless. Someone tough who isn’t afraid of a scrap or taking a few hits will put you back in play far quicker than a wet.

This means that National MPs would be outright insane to have Bill English as leader, especially after his 20.93% in 2002. Aspiring presumptive leader (in his own mind), the pedo-friendly Simon Power is another wet in the Malcolm Turnbull mold and he will get a hiding too. The stand out contender when National goes into opposition or when the going gets tough in Government has to be Judith Collins because everyone knows she will oppose, not wring her hands in anguish when the nasty Labour Party do something monumentally stupid that is likely to fuck things up for us all.

    I would counter that what is a required is a strategist. A scrapper reveals strategy as he goes. A strategist, and love or hate her, Helen was one, knows the end game and gets there with whatever they can muster.

    I can’t see Collins getting many female votes. The lack of appeal to female voters was a big problem for the Nats before the emergence of Key.

      How did Clark ever get female voters then?

    I am not sure Whale..I certainly never voted for her. Collins comes across as hard , cold , calculating,,, unfeeling..In the last day or so she called a very unfortunate young man a moron. I just think it is very poor for a minister of the crown to call a young person a moron. Someoene who knows him has already spoken up and said he is a very intelligent young man who needed help. An adult son of one of his victims spoke on tv last night saying that he felt for the young man and his family because he has a son about the same age..So much immediate compassion and empathy from a victim and a cheap nasty label from a very well paid pollie.
    Does Collins have any children of her own? Does she have any hormone bracket…15 to 25 yr old sons??? When ever any of us mothers of sons hear of these terrible accidents ,we all think it could have been our own sons involved.

      If you voted for National on the party vote then you did vote for her. Since you live in Chch it is difficult to imagine how you could have otherwise.

      the fool who ran from the police and then killed two people is a moron. I don’t know how you cold describe him any other way exceprt to add the moniker killer, as in killer moron.

      I disagree, I think it is high time we had people called what they are, instead of soft soaping everything. Judith Collins does have children of her own and yes they are in the 15-25 yo age bracket. So do I, when I hear of these incidents, they aren’t accidents, they are the deliberate actions of morons, I KNOW my son isn’t involved.

      Hugs and cuddles aren’t what is needed, facing up to individual responsibility is. I agree with Leighton Smith when he said that the penalty for fleeing should be 10 years in prison and 6 stroked of the rotan.

      I know you have lived in Malaysia, I ask you, Do fools morons run from the police there?
