Labour's latest press release on Key is below.  Not yet online, hence no link:

KEY IMPLICATED IN COLLAPSE, RESIGNATION SOUGHT

Senior Cabinet Pete Hodgson has tabled in damning documents showing that John Key is responsible for the collapse of Bridgecorp, and has called for him to resign his seat in Parliament.

“It all goes back to his days at Merrill Lynch when he was head of currency dealing.  He was appointed to the Exchange Advisory Committee of the Federal Reserve”.

“In 1998, another member of that committee was a Cyril Nathanson.  Mr Nathanson is now dead, but he had a son – Fred Nathanson”

“We have conclusive proof that Fred Nathanson in 2001 invested in  Bridgecorp.  Not only did he invest in Bridgecorp, he also once had dinner with one of the Directors.  We have a photo from the respected Inquirer newspaper in the United States”

“This is the smoking gun which ties John Key to the collapse of Bridgecorp.  It is disgraceful behaviour on the part of Mr Key and we believe he should personally reimburse every creditor of Bridgecorp's and resign his seat in Parliament”
