A prediction …

June 30th, 2004 at 1:32 pm by David Farrar

Capital Pundit has blogged on how Clark is effectively backing Peters and saying people should put up or shut up. I would have thought a sworn affadavit was putting up personally.

Clark is suggesting it should be a police matter. And it might well be, but this is a red herring. Issues such as having a staff member on the payroll of both yourself and a company you are investigating are issues of ethics, not law.

But my predicition is that beyond doubt Jonathan Hunt will not refer it to the Privileges Committee. And why am I so confident? Because Clark has made it clear she wants it to go away.

As the chances of a Labour/Green Government after 2005 look increasingly unlikely, NZ First is the most likely coalition partner.

    I was right!

    I predicted on Wednesday that Hunt would dismiss the privilege complaint against Peters (after Clark came out backing Peters). Capital Pundit alerted me to the fact that Hunt has now dismissed the complaint. One does have to wonder how if…
