Campbell Live from last week
November 21st, 2008 at 11:52 am by David FarrarTwo of the new National MPs had features on Campbell Live last week. Had quite a few requests for them, so Whale has You Tubed them.
Simon Bridges – three minutes, 42 seconds
Nikki Kaye – four minutes, 20 seconds
Both really nice interviews. I did comment to both of them that the next time they are on Campbell Live, it will probably be because they have stuffed up badly – Government backbenchers do not normally make Campbell Live unless it is bad news

Labour would kill to have candidates as good as this.
Nikki’s answer about believing in equality of opportunity rather than equality of outcome was gold.

Good sign for National.
I hope they can have some real impact.
In such a conservative country.
So, they have a fighting chance.
There is nothing like poverty, high inflation and unemployment to get rid of conservatism.

And dare I say it, I didn’t see many Maori lawyers in my ten years. I saw 3.
One is now a Coroner Judge.
One quit.
One quit and came back I think and now is partner somewhere. And a pretty good winger for Waikato, wrongly accused for stomping someone’s head on TV, by that genius Keith Quin.
I liked all of them.
But, “positive discrimination”, what a description, helps Maoris get through law school. Maybe not those 3 who actually got through.
But why?
Equality of opportunity, means, give everyone a fair chance.
No positive discrimination please.
Ok Nikki?
