Greens Breach Electoral Finance Act
Constant scourge of the Labour Government, Blair Mulholland draws our attention to Green hypocrisy.
“Normally I wouldn’t give a toss about a few Green Party posters put up near my house. This used to be a democracy, so in theory they should be able to put up whatever they like. The only trouble is that, since they voted for such draconian electoral law, you’d think they would be able to avoid breaking it?”
poster promoting Green Party, but where’s the authorisation statement?
“Note also that these are not old posters. They are only a couple of weeks old, and were put out AFTER Labour and ACT were already rapped over the knuckles. You have to wonder at the breathtaking arrogance of it all. Did they really think the new rules would only apply to National and not to them? Well sorry, you vile pack of communists, if we can’t have our free speech then neither can you.”

I can’t get over the blatant hypocrisy of this. It’s clear by the actions of the parties involved in pushing the law through that they intended to stop National at any cost and they simply don’t care about this election being fair, like they Claim all the time.
Come November, this lot of pricks will be tossed out by an electorate that cares. Cannot wait.

Yes, Go Greens - out of Parliament! I cannot wait for the election to come, I am so fed up with these shysters, the Greens are worse than Labour in my view, at least Clark was elected, unlike Bradford. Such wonderful polls out today, read em and weep, reds and greens. You have betrayed and proved ordinary hard-working NZ citizens to the point of civil-war!

Actually, the betrayal really hurts, because I expected great things from Clark and Labour, not an evil pile of social-egineering and nanny-state. Such intelligence so mis-used. Could have all been so different. Bring on Mr Key, bring on Phill Goff and the way Labour used to be.

Thanks. Maybe I won’t vote at all!
