What I don’t get is why John Key didn’t say Merry Christmas in his Christmas cards
I hate Seasons Greetings and the even worseHappy Holidays – all these PC euphemisms because a few shrinking violets might be “offended” by recalling the “reason for the season” to use a somewhat trite phrase.

[DPF: I may have got a Xmas Card from him, but I can't recall. I prefer Merry Christmas also and use it whenever possible]

I have no issue at all with “seasons greetings” as I do not see it as a PC statement, I am 46 years old and that greeting has been around for as long as I can remember.
However, I hate “happy holidays” with a passion, it is designed so as not to offend those who have come and made a choice to live in our society, if they do not like Merry Xmas then they can piss back to where every they come from.
I refuse to shop anywhere where the company Xmas slogan is “Happy Holidays”.

8/10 – no time taken as I was nursing my sleeping granddaughter while I did it.

Also 8/10 in 39 seconds. How am I supposed to know how many written questions were answered this year? I watched Lockwood’s closing speech but didn’t remember the figures!
And how was I supposed to know Jim Anderton had pneumonia? I noticed his absence just as much as I notice him when he’s there.
