Nasty negative Nats

The Nats are nasty as well as dirty. Here’s todays example:

Former minister Judith Collins isn’t pulling any punches at critics after she quit last weekend – calling Labour leader David Cunliffe a “moron”.

Keep talking Judith, please, keep talking!

Meanwhile Nat “affiliated” groups are planning another Ansell negative billboard campaign, as covered in detail by Chris Trotter (with the help of others) at Bowalley Road:

DIRT ALERT! – Are The Greens And Labour About To Become The Targets Of A Major Negative Advertising Campaign?

WE’VE SEEN IT ALL BEFORE. In 2005 pamphlets began appearing all over New Zealand attacking Labour and the Greens. … Could history be repeating itself?

Yesterday evening (Thursday, 28 August 2014) I received an e-mail from a sender styling himself “Charlie Taylor” advising me that “a group of concerned citizens just like you are paying for billboards like this”.











Whatever the explanation, we now know that the campaign is real, and that it is being run under the collective identity of “The Opinion Partnership” among whose members are Mr Third and Owen Jennings – former head of Federated Farmers, former Act Party MP (1996-2002) and currently the joint owner (with Mr Third) of the registered private company Ideal Energy Holdings Ltd.



Propaganda supremo, John Ansell, confirms his involvement in The Opinion Partnership.

The Nats are nasty as well as dirty. If only there was some positive alternative…
