A second ad from the CTU. Very funny and much better than the official Labour ads.

    Well done, them. Cheap, effective, and it’ll get fired around from person to person cos it’s entertaining.

    Yeah it’s very funny… see that’s more in good taste. Of course it’s not exactly accurate, but sattire’s not supposed to be :)

    Maybe it is just me – but this seems more of an anti-Labour advert – satirising the silly things they keep saying about National…

    While amusing it pales beside Whaleoil’s efforts.

    Hilarious! I suppose you have to be a trade unionist to get a true belly laugh out of it, but it’s still very very good. I think I’ll watch it again.

    How much is Fiordland, by the way?

    That was great. … Outsourcing the public service to India, hmnn. Could have merit. :-)

    Pretty classic. They did a good voice impersonation of John Key. Don’t know about Bill English, sounded more like Helen Clark.

    No trade unionist on this keyboard, but definitely a bellyful of laughs in front of it!

    It would be good to have one on Uncle Helen and Aunty Michael working up the December budget! Wish I was that computer literate!

    The outsourcing idea was the best bit.

    Or John Campbell.

    Wait a minute.

    My God.

    Does anyone ever remember seeing all three of them in the same room at the same time?!

    This is big! Does anyone have Ian Wishart’s number?!

    dog_eat_dog: My thoughts exactly. I doubt he’d approve, considering he’s touring Australia urging us to Make Deadshits History [NSFW language].

    “Look to your left. Look to your right. Now look at yourself. Two out of three people are deadshits…” Much funnier than the CTU’s effort, but theirs is not too bad, considering.

    Has anyone got the video of Helen falling on her face in the Riccarton Mall?

    Now that would be a really funny scene specially if she was wearing traditional highland dress at the time.

    May answer a lot of questions regarding—————————————–

    Johnboy (9:16pm) – we’ve just been watching it over and over…and it just gets funnier and funnier!!

    Brash was pilloried for his “walking the plank” stunt, but this blooper is another league altogether. Helen’s dopey waving look-at-me swan dive (sans water) is pure classic slap-stick comedy!

    “TRUST” Helen to run the country? – yeah right, she can’t even manage to wave and put one foot in front of the other at the same time (fuck, even Sarah Palin can manage that).

    Good on TVNZ for broadcasting it (and also for using it in their teaser, so we could all be ready to set up the DVD to record it). Thankyou to the TV1 News-team.

    I hope all you tossers above who are giving grudging congrats to the union swine who produced this pathetic bit of video crap realise that they financed it by screwing the workers for $6/week while pretending that the union dues were going to a worthy cause.

    The best thing I ever did at my place of employment was to show the unionised staff how they were being manipulated and screwed by the sad little university educated union scumbags (who of course knew how to con dumb people).

    The end result is that we have no more EMU wankers coming around and the staff are much better off financially.

    All have decided to vote National this year. Not quite what I hoped for but I should get them round to voting ACT next election.

    Helen doesn’t do frocks Johnboy…just her standard butch black trouser-suit/military uniform.

    For your titillation though Johnboy, there was a bit of a knicker-flash (…well the saggy grey-white elastic band!). Prime Minister Clark obviously hadn’t planned on broadcasting her lingerie to the nation today, so no flame-red satin sorry – yet another lost opportunity really.

    God I was just getting so excited there 3-coil thinking of dear leader in a mini that I shorted my keyboard with the oversplash. Tell me more of the saggy grey elastics and hold nothing back—-I can cope with it you know.

    What have you heard of flame red satin—-and who are your sources in the kremlingrad.

    God I could turn Lesbian for knowledge such as this you know. Tell me!! Tell me!!

    It’s pathetic and it’s not funny because something has to have an element of truth in it to be funny
    This doesn’t, it’s just nasty and repeats Labour spin
    I can laugh at my side with the best of them, this just disgusted me
