Hubbard on Hubbard

Emma Bailey at the Timaru Herald reports

“I am a New Zealand hero, nobody in the history of New Zealand has done what I have done. I have turned down two knighthoods but it is just not in my nature to go around crowing about it.”

Actually I am pretty sure some other people have done what Hubbard has done, and cost the taxpayer up to $1.7b in a bailout – around $1,000 per family.
