April Fools day posts – English calls for new economic indicators based on scrotums , Michael Wood was appointed to Labour’s election strategy team, Andrew Williams appointed as spokesman for Alcoholics Anonymous, Terry Serepisos appoints new management team.
Phil Goff and Andrew Little had crisis talks:
The new Rodney selection process got underway again and Scott Simpson bailed to stand in Coromandel. Strangely the nasty muck-racking departed with him and turned up in Coromandel instead. The formerly active board member was nowhere to be seen and the delegates were now all from the electorate. BRetn Robinson was still in the race but his rort had been cleaned up.
The Whale Army tore apart the PSA’s social media campaign. They were forced to take it down and abandon the campaign. Labour didn’t pay attention.
The PSA then complained that they had been hacked.
The Whale Army hijacked a NZPF survey. They disabled it a short time later.
Name Suppression reached an all time low in New Zealand with it now including the names of dogs.
I busted Heather Roy astroturfing and playing sockpuppets.
Labour’s stop asset sales campaign hits a snag…their signs are illegal as are their campaign activities. Then their signs are parodied. Labour eventually conceded defeat and started removing their signs.
The PSA relaunched their online campaign and the Army took it down the same day, in a matter of hours.
I started following the Brash coup. The tipline starts humming with insider information from both sides of the coup. It is clear that there is a massive war on.
Mark Mitchell won the Rodney selection despite the duplicity of the local Electorate Chair and interference and skulduggery by a board member.
David Garrett wrote a guest post about the leadership battle in ACT.
I won a shotgun from Beretta and Hamills Manukau at their Duck night.

Labour started an online billboard campaign. It was called “Let’s Not”. The Army quickly hijacked it.
Trevor Mallard mentions me in the house. (2:36)
Len Brown lost a whole lot of Auckland’a clocks.
I start sledging Trevor Mallard after he smashed himself up. This was the start of my Asymmetrical War.
David Cunliffe posts an online poll on his website, the Army attacks, the poll is removed and Cunliffe blames a computer glitch. These guys are slow learners.
Clare Curran wrote a guest post. It was quite good. I wonder if she will do another one?
Labour attempts another social media survey, the Whale Army are unleashed.
Trevor Mallard , sick of my sledging him for being a cripple challenges me to bike race. I accept.
Labour’s online survey is discontinued. Another victory for the Army.

A cunning rooster got turned into a feather cloud.
Some Mallards dropped from the sky.
I bust Labour and more illegal mailers.
Trevor Mallard proves why Twitter and Facebook are great election resources….for bloggers.
I preview my scoop of the year:
Labour’s website disaster begins to unfold. I will blog this in a separate post.
Labour’s General Secretary issued a threatening letter. I responded. The debacle escalates. The mainstream media picked this up and it was all on.
Farrar is booted from the VRWC for driving a Prius.
Simon Bridges uses my lines from this morning about Trevor Mallard.
Duck really needs some anger management courses so he can concentrate on the campaign rather than fighting an asymmetrical war with a right wing blogger he can’t win.
Labour’s creepy and illegal ads from university are busted.
I finally work out Trevor Mallards cunning election strategy. It is loosely based on the Gnomes Stealing Underpants strategy:
So here is Duck’s cunning campaign plan:
- Steal underpants
- ?
- Win votes
