    The village idiot of the left claims there will be tears. Mind you that’s only if Bumber indulges in his usual falsetto shriek-fest bullshit

    What is their (TVNZ 7 or 97) provable viewer audience ?????\
    As for the political ratings… rubbish. Esoteric and meaningless CRAP

    Last night was fantastic viewing. Mallard and Carter at each other’s throats all night, and camera shots of Darien Fenton in the audience aghast at their antics. At one stage, Carter did 50 push-ups. When he finished, Mallard said that was the first time Simon Bridges had Carter go down on/for him 50 times! Carter was septic at that.

    Labour unity at its best.

    That wasn’t quite what was said, Bridges criticised Carter for not going all the way to the ground doing his pushups, and Trevor said he never thought he’d hear Bridges complain that Carter wasn’t going down enough.

    It was pretty funny.

    Why hasn’t Phil Goff sold his Wellington Property as he had promised.

    So he rorts and rorts, and sanctimoniously castigates so many others.

    Taxi for Goff!

    just heard that as well Guy .. that has GOT to be at least close to the last straw for Labour. Daffy has been wanking on for months about English and now we find out his so called leader is just as bad

    It seems Chris Carter was right about Goff. I am only sticking up for Carter though because he’s gay.

    Radman, so pleased you used the word “for”. Could have taken on a whole new meaning otherwise. Heh, one word, mind you that’s how wars start.

    You fools Goff is not a hyporcrite! Its all a plot by national who sent TV3 round to do a sting!

    The fact that he is guilty has nothing to with it, its “dirty trick” by national to let people know. Of course by national he means anyone who isn’t on his side.. which could mean anyone these days like that hardcore national supporter Chris Carter.
