Now THAT – is a leader in waiting. Interesting watching Dear Leader pretending to read her paper work, must really hurt watching someone who (after 8 years or so) can finally match her roar in parliment.

Also interesting John`s comment about Labours own polling company.

Excellent.

Prime Minister Key indeed.

He did well not to be deflected by the screaming Labour Party – particularly Mallard.

Margaret Wilson should be ashamed – not once did she reign in the Labour Party but did a couple of times for the Nats.

So, um, what?

This guy can’t even get the difference between omitted and admitted right.

Nick Smith, on Wednesday, was supporting a regional fuel levy, and the very next day here’s Key against it.

Its hilarous when he totally screws up the maths on Kiwisaver.

Sam – so you think all parties should have monolithic opinions? I’d rather have a party in power where MPs can have different views than the leader. Makes for stronger government. Debating, reasoning, etc will follow.

Most governments work like that. Republicans and Democrats in the US (for example) are very broad camps.

MMP makes us focus more on party lines than we should. FPP was more about electing individuals who had some broad alignment to a party. MMP is too much about electing mindless drones to convey a party line.

I’m a bit shocked that the only times he mentioned inflation was to say that it’s irrelevant, that he didn’t mention the exchange rate, and that that he seems to be calling for the government to reduce its surplus *and* that government overspending was responsible for high interest rates.

And his style is *exactly* the same as Mallard’s on attack. I don’t like it, but hey, it’s just Parliamentary “flair”.
