The connection between Wong-Wang & Lee has become more obvious weith this story making my contention that Lee will try replaying the Wong-Wang campaign lines used in Botany again in Mt Albert with race being the issue for crime and anti-welfare policies to define the NACTS from other parties.

Worst. comment. ever.

Stupid on so many levels you could sink that comment to the bottom of the Challenger Deep and it would be poking its nose out of the pacific.

If National decide this spending needs to be retrospectively validated who will spend enormous amounts of effort telling me that validations are a normal part of parliamentary process?

Hey National once validated $50m eh rOb.

Got a copy of Kafka’s The Trial, Felix? Bet Tim has!

The main character, Josef K, is a bank clerk unjustly persecuted by faceless bureaucrats with a hidden agenda. Said bureaucrats are secretly supported by a series of people who are outwardly friendly and supportive of K, but who all turn out to be part of a monstrous conspiracy.

Just ‘coz you’re paranoid ….

Hear that whooshing sound, burt?

You’re probably so used to it you don’t even notice it anymore.

I never thought you were such a heartless bastard. If Tim has any job then he is doing better than a lot of people right now.

Pumped for all its worth:

My god there is a press release on it Tim, and Labour party MPs talked to the media when asked to comment.

They’re really going overtime on this one.

Could everyone just leave Tim alone? It’s really mean of you all to be picking on a lowly auditor working in a bank.

oh yeah… that’ll be it Tim.

I wonder how much longer TVNZ will feel comfortable about trading with Lee’s company now though, now that it’s becoming common knowledge that Asia Downunder is really just an extended ad for National party interests? Might not help the show’s ratings much either.

I wonder what the company’s other shareholders are thinking about their investment right now?

By that measure sprout TV3 only ran the story so they could take a dig at TVNZ.

Heck. Highly unusual. Tim’s already run out of straws to grasp and is onto wishful thinking. This could be big.
