   I must correct my own tweet: I should have said primary school, not high school. The number of tweets I’ve had from parents saying “this wouldn’t be acceptable at my kid’s kindy” was significant.

     My godson’s little boy (18 months) pulled my granddaughter’s (2-and-a- half) hair when he stayed with us at Christmas. That boy is destined to become a prime minister I reckon.

   I think we can all expect grumpy key for the next few weeks. How long before an MP like Winston uses the phrases “splitting hairs” in the House, I wonder?

   Actually, it’s personal enough to Key that such comments would really piss him off. I think he’s already down on the job, making mistakes.

       some of my best friends are weirdos, of a variety of flavours.
       But they always are careful about consent.
       Feeding one’s fetish without the knowledge or consent of the other party is two kinds of wrong right there. Neither kind is the fetish itself.

     Hmm…’cept it’s about abusive, fucked up, creepy, immature behaviour; not about hair per-se. If the hair angle was to take off (effectively a belittling of the issues), the substantive matter of a PM’s repeatedly fucked up behaviour could get lost.

     He could have repeatedly sought to hold her hand, lay his hand on her, or any one of a number of things and it would have been the same shit . That he apparently has a hair fetish that many might find odd, is secondary to physically imposing one-self/violating someones space.

   An idea for public protest especially for when John Kreeyp is around :

   Activists, protesters and other participants should all wear ponytail extensions.

   Imagine Kreepy going into a major meltdown, turning into jelly, because he can’t contain himself and want to tug at every ponytail ?!

   Get the cameras rolling and smart phones ready please.

   Hmm, on second thoughts, maybe not a good idea. This might normalise and legitimise his creepiness.

   The pouty reply by Hooten to Bradbury is intriguing…

   (interpreted for those unable to see)

   it’s not even good wine… everyone gets it… so don’t think you’re special, dont think you’re one of us, it doesn’t mean anything, don’t think it’s an apolo… DOH!”

     Love how Hooten managed to set himself up for a slam there.

     Our culture lives by the rule that you always believe the person with the high status not the other way around. How long will it take us to learn that the exact opposite is true?

       I’d learned it by the time I was 20. Most people never do. That’s why they get away with it. I doubt if Hooton actually believes or disbelieves. He just knows who has the money.

   Honeytrap. Labour, Dotcom and Hager placed a pony-tailed waitress there to tempt Key.

   and

   @CitizenBomber giving someone wine isn’t evidence of anything. the whole cabinet and press gallery gets that wine.

     No basic legal knowledge, either.

     Yes it was against the law: both the summary offences act and the crimes act define assault as: assault means the act of intentionally applying or attempting to apply force to the person of another, directly or indirectly,[…]

     It could count as common assault (the least serious offence) under the summary offences act, or male assaults female under Crimes Act, but it would probably just be treated with a police warning or a discharge without conviction.
     But it’s still illegal.
     • Tracey 9.1.1

       22 April 2015 at 2:16 pm

       Our police??!!???

       BUWAHAHAHAHA!

       maybe she could sue him under Tort Law

       “In common law, assault is the tort of acting intentionally, that is with either general or specific intent, causing the reasonable apprehension of an immediate harmful or offensive contact. Because assault requires intent, it is considered an intentional tort, as opposed to a tort of negligence.”

       “first, the plaintiff apprehended immediate physical contact, second, the plaintiff had reasonable apprehension (the requisite state of mind) and third, the defendant’s act of interference was intentional (the defendant intended the resulting apprehension). But intent for purposes of civil assault can be either general or specific. Specific intent means that when the defendant acted, he or she intended to cause apprehension of a harmful or unwanted contact. General intent means that the defendant knew with substantial certainty that the action would put someone in apprehension of a harmful or unwanted contact.”

    Guess which lines would have been experimented/recycled and rejected by Chief of Staff Wayne Eagleson and Crosby Textor:

    * Labour did it too.

    * I did not pull the ponytail in my capacity as Prime Minister.

    * The PM’s Office did it.

    * I can’t recall.

    * She’s one ponytailer, and like lawyers, I can provide you with another one that will give you a counterview.

    * There’s probably a general view that ponytails are not overvalued.

    * I would not take everything these [people] say literally by any stretch of the imagination.

    * Well, look, at the end of the day, achually [insert whatever you like here] …

        In that comment, he also said the woman said “thanks and (mumbles something)” after he gave her the wine but in the letter on TDB, the woman said he left before she had a chance to respond to him delivering the wine.
        ” Before I could say a word he’d already hightailed it out of there,”

          http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/67949918/prime-minister-john-key-pulled-waitress-ponytail

          “She thanked me for that and said ‘that’s all fine, no drama'”- John Key

          which, as mentioned above, completely contradicts what is said in the letter
          ” Before I could say a word he’d already hightailed it out of there,”

          Seeing the footage of him dropping off the wine, might help to clarify things.
          It should at least show if there was time for Key’s version of events (and in what manner he behaved) – perhaps the video will be on the news tonight?

          Ive seen the very short clip. It has no audio. From what I can see JK is utterly fixated on that wee girl’s hair. I’ve no problem with him having a hair fetish if that’s what he has, but his compulsions…?

          I’d like to see a longer clip with audio to get a better idea of where JK’s head might have been at. On the short clip, it’s certainly not a good look.

                Just watching that. It looks relatively benign, and it’s pretty hard to see what the mother’s reaction is.

                Had to laugh at this though – at 5:20 Key stops to talk to a child and his mother. The mother puts her arm around the child and says “you’re going to be a National voter, aren’t you”. Key says something like you’re a good boy. The child is wearing a t-shirt saying “I need anger management”. Someone needs to gif that.

    Funny how such a little slice of behaviour says so much about Key. there is no defence, it’s just fucking weird and creepy.

    As you read this, and please, read it, keep in mind the Prime Minister of NZ on multiple occasions pulled someones hair, someone he didn’t know and once told not to, decided it would be funny to pretend to.

    “”Talent without discipline is like an octopus on rollar skates. There is plenty of movement, but you never know if it’s going to be forwards, backwards or sideways.” H. Jackson Jr.

    “We have reviewed these rules four times, and have had lots of reminders within classroom time.

    1. Be nice (no hitting, kicking, pulling hair, biting or calling others names).
    2. Follow directions.
    3. No talking while the teacher is talking.
    4. Sit correctly.”

    Do we need these signs in parliament and in all MP cars, offices etc?

    What to do if they break the rules?

    “Although these rules seem simple to remember, we will have some students that have a difficult time remembering them. Reminders to do our best are placed in the card pockets at the front of the room.

    Each student has three cards, green, yellow and red. They work in a similar fashion to stoplights. A green card means that a student is remembering all of our classroom rules. If a student changes his/her card to yellow, they have had several reminders to (with the exception of violence) adhere to our classroom rules. Hitting, pushing, pulling hair, biting or the like is an automatic card change without reminders.

    If a student has a yellow card, they will walk for 5 minutes of recess time instead of playing. If they turn the card to red, they will need to walk for 10 minutes of their recess time. How will you know how your student’s behavior was on a daily basis?

    Each day in the green folder, I will mark a checkmark in green, yellow or red. I will try to write in the folder what reminders your child was given during the day. Since I wait until the end of the day to write in the folders, descriptions of the behavior will be brief. Your job as a parent is to initial the folder each day.

    Thank you for your cooperation! ”

      From that link:

      * “Today I’m embarrassed that John Key is Prime Minister”

      * To learn today that he pulled a waitress’s pony-tail on several occasions at his local cafe makes me cringe.

      * “It is one of those stories that denigrates him and his office”

      * To learn about it just as he is about to represent New Zealand at the Gallipoli commemorations makes it utterly mortifying.
      It denigrates the occasion which has taken on a quasi-spiritual dimension”

      * “The only thing funny about it are the inventive little clips appearing on social media”

      * “Clips of Key saying they were just “horsing around” weren’t particularly smart either”

      * “The pony-tail story is already spreading around the world”

      * “We’ve already had Aussie radio stations calling our office to talk”

      * “He does things ordinary people might do but that have shock value because he is Prime Minister; such as walking flamboyantly down a fashion catwalk; talking about vasectomies at post cabinet press conference; hamming it up with drag queens at the Big Gay Out; and telling UN ambassadors about how Bronagh filed a tax-return with stud-screwer as her occupation.”

      ~~While he should not say that to anyone, I hope the UN ambassador was not a woman.

    Jokeyhen’s image is being constantly abraded – now with the hair clip his image is really abraided.

    But beware – remember Toronto’s clown Mayor. The modern public is so broad-minded about expectations of responsible leaders – he may not be all that great, but he makes me laugh – what a guy sort of thing. (I don’t know if women can get away with this type of thing, the old rules of being three time better than a male and still getting criticised would apply I think.)

    And now the story’s gone international – Manhire in the Guardian:

    Politicians are routinely upbraided for behaviour befitting a schoolyard, but the New Zealand prime minister has now become embroiled in a controversy that centres, quite literally, on hair-pulling…

    Key said when he gave her the wine and apologised, the waitress had told him, “that’s all right, no drama”…

    Green Party co-leader Metiria Turei called the behaviour “bullying” and “weird”.

    “New Zealanders know you can’t walk into a cafe and start tugging on someone’s hair, especially if they’ve told you they don’t like it,” she told media. “It’s a sign of how out of touch John Key has become when he can’t even monitor how inappropriate his personal behaviour is, and when people are not comfortable with how he is behaving.”…

    RadioLive talkback host Sean Plunket said he would not be discussing the hair-pulling controversy because it appeared to him “absolutely propaganda hate speech rubbish” and a “cheap little scummy political set-up”.

    http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/apr/22/new-zealand-prime-minister-john-key-apologises-for-pulling-waitresss-hair

    Perhaps the anonymous waitress will be able to state at some point whether that was what she indeed said. “Before I could say a word he’d already hightailed it out of there”, was how she put it in the TDB post. Perhaps Key misremembers her saying; “I don’t want any more trouble”, at some point in the events as; “no drama”.

              And if two bottles of wine and an ‘apology’ make up for what happened to her, then you have never had this happen to you.

              An apology requires these things. An acknowledgement of wrong done, sorrow for what happened, a commitment never to do it again and making amends.

    Some Key thoughts:

    * I am wondering if, in an unbelievably strange way, Key’s popularity may actually go up, because every time people look at anyone’s pony tail, they may immediately think of John key!

    * Women with pony tails may often think of Key too.

    * Women, especially those with pony tails, will be weary of standing too close to the creep now, but may still vote for the creep as he is a good actor and is able to fool a lot of people all the time.

    * Can any one who addresses Key as ‘Rt Honourable’ honestly feel so?

    * Parliament should present Key with a pony tail wig as his farewell present when he leaves.

    * I think Key’s chances of getting a knighthood have diminished a little.

    * I think the i-predict movements will be interesting to watch.

    Where are left wing faux outraged comnetariat when left (ish) politicians engage in truly vile behaviour? Nowhere.

    Or the now departed very promising young Labour MP who truly went sexually OTT and had a young man running down the road in Wellington screaming and sobbing?

    I could go on and on.

    Reading this unfortunate young woman’s account catapulted me instantly back almost 60 years, to when, as a child, I attempted to dodge the unwelcome attentions of an elderly uncle. My deepest sympathies to her; she shouldn’t have to put up with this sort of thing at work – or anywhere else, come to that.

    And there he is in the video link on Stuff, doing the same thing to a child! Now that’s really beyond the pale.

    I’m aware that there’s a subset of the voters who won’t see anything exceptionable in this: he’s just having a laugh, can’t you take a joke?

    But here’s the thing: our hair is a part of our bodies. Nobody should presume to touch it without our permission. He might as well have fondled her breasts; the same principle applies. And – insult upon insult – he does it repeatedly in front of his wife. How humiliating for her, poor woman.

    I’ve long thought that he doesn’t have the gravitas for the job of Prime Minister, and here we see further evidence of that. He clearly has a ponytail fetish, but if he would be PM, he needs the character attributes which enable him to keep those urges under control. It’s very clear that he lacks those attributes.

    I know that he trades on his “everyman” image, but if being an everyman entails this sort of behaviour, I don’t want one such as PM. I want someone who can act with dignity, at least when he’s in public. He can’t credibly represent us now, either here or overseas.

      Heh, pity the waitress’ letter directly contradicts TRH J. Kreeyp’s account of events.

      You would think the MSM would follow that up but, having read the actual post by the waitress, it seems that instead the issues has been somewhat whitewashed/downplayed.

      Not surprised, but there’s still scope for the complainant to take it further, and JK’s attempts to minimise it/lie about it might be good motivation to do so.

      Then there’s the likelihood that there are some similar stories floating around, since this kind of behaviour is unlikely to be an isolated thing (especially in light of the Campbell Live video.. ew).

    It seems to me that he was incredibly spoilt as a child and was praised for everything he did. As soon as he started making a buck, he would have had sycophants licking his nether regions. He has probably never had anyone say no to him and thinks he can do whatever he likes. The true John Galt, exalted by the power of his own will, creating his own planet, and without limits.

    In other words, a deluded nutter.

      I don’t think it helps to ascribe Key’s actions and attitudes to mental illness. Plenty of psychologically “healthy” people can have massive egos, senses of entitlement, and lack of proper social mores.
      • rawshark-yeshe 38.1.1

        I don’t think it helps to equate calling someone a deluded nutter, which is quite a common expression among many people, with a diagnosis of mental illness.

    The bit that galls me, this man has enough cash to pay him a Lady who would come to his office/house/shed where ever, with her hair in a Ponytail, in Pig Tails, braided etc etc and he could fondle it to his hearts content until he feels satisfied.
    We all have our little kinks that make us go oh la la, but we don’t force ourselfs on unsuspecting and unconsenting people just because we can.

    • Murray Rawshark 39.2

      22 April 2015 at 11:42 pm

      I suspect he really gets off on the power aspect of it. The feeling that he can do whatever he likes because he’s so popular and such a great man. If he pays for it, there would always be a bit of doubt in the back of his mind about whether it was really his appeal and charm or something else. After all, why wouldn’t he expect a mere waitress to revere him to the same extent as Mike Hoskings and Simon Bridges do?

    • Clemgeopin 40.1

      22 April 2015 at 9:38 pm

      Going by the past where he has survived may lies, his dirty politics, destruction of freedom and privacy, asset sales, pro wealthy policies, anti worker moves, shady ‘blind’ trusts etc, he may yet survive this despicable behaviour with only a minor dent, unless other women, subordinates, cabinet colleagues, journalists etc come forward with new revelations.

      Today on TV3, 6 pm news, one woman even said that she likes Key so much, she would be happy for Key to pull her hair too! Go figure!

      I think that about half of his 49% vote comes from wealthy right wing people who are doing very well money/property wise. The rest of the vote comes from unthinking, easily gullible and ignorant nincompoops, like that voter in the tv3 news.

    So on the matter of the “apology”, the waitress says this:

    “A short while later he reappeared holding not one, but two bottles of JK 2012 PM’s Pinot Noir. He scurried over to me in the very centre of the cafe and hurriedly handed me the bottles, with big smiles, really big smiles, saying “this is for you, sorry, I didn’t realise.” Before I could say a word he’d already hightailed it out of there, the grinning assassin appearing as if he was the nice guy, whilst no doubt following someone else’s advice to contain the situation before it really got out of hand, and I pretty much felt like in my hands was a bribe.”

    John Key’s version? She said “thanks for the wine, no drama”.

    BLiP, another one for your list.

    NZ media, hellooooooooo? Anyone hoooooome?
    • emergency mike 43.1

      22 April 2015 at 10:27 pm

      As said on the Daily Review thread:

      “Also I wish they would stop saying that Key apologized. Dumping a couple of bottles of wine saying ‘sorry I didn’t know’ with a big grin and legging it before she can reply is not an apology. It’s a butt covering PR exercise straight out of a Bret Easton Ellis novel.

      An sincere apology involves sticking around and make sure that your apology is accepted – i.e. facing up to whatever the other person might have to say to you in reply like an adult.

      As for Key’s conflicting claim that she said “It’s all fine” or whatever. Who shall we believe? The victim who has brave enough to come forward? Or Mr Pony Tail Lover the known reflexive liar?”

        …although I think I got his lie wrong, should be “that’s all fine”, not “thanks for the wine”.

    A new design for Key’s other hobby horsing around, the new flag design:

    Either a single pony tail,
    or
    a dozen of them,
    or
    a single pony tail through a key hole.

    Now every one in the whole world will know it the NZ flag as long as it has a pony tail in it! Well done, creep!

    When people who have supported “Key” realize just how psychotic he is, they should then evaluate their own methodologies of determining truth, because “Keys” nasty nature has been evident through what he’s implemented, and how he has reacted to accusations against him, ever since he first took on the role of PM.
    It’s that basic.
