Things must be getting decidedly trippy for Deputy PM Bill English about now, and not in a good way.
While his glorious leader is off overseas playing the Jester Statesman, back home Bill’s future is looking gloomier by the day. With the Auditor General looking into English‘s Krishna-like claims of being able to exist in multiple places simultaneously, and even National Party cheerleader John Armstrong implying Bill’s days could be numbered, it must all seem a bit surreal.
Just when he thought leading National to an historic defeat in 2002 was as bad as it gets, Bill’s now looking down the barrel of ending his career in disgrace.
And yet despite possible “9th Floor” connections, Nice Mr Key oddly enough doesn’t seem the least bit concerned. To think it was Key who once cunningly suggested he thought he’d be “knee-capped” by wiley Bill one day. Turn’s out it was Bill who should’ve been girding his knees all along!
Surely it is not possible in this age of conspiracy, that John has instigated/allowed a festering sore to develop so that with scarcely a blink he will be able to replace English with Joyce. “The people have willed it so. My hands are clean,” sayeth St John. Actually I think that it just might be possible.
I don’t think John key cares too much about anything other than John Key and adding to the CV
Make a shitload …..check
PM .. check
Meet the Queen…….. check
Meet the President………….. check
Knightood …In process
God…..In process
All of which is pretty amazing, good on him
But good for New Zealand? in the long run I think not
As a tax payer I say he either resigns or gets the sack. I expect nothing less.
