Such a nasty person.
Amazing how people will act when there identity is hidden.

Very easy for Labour to try to apply smoke & mirrors afterwards for some look good too
Those reports continuing to creep out on Labour Minister's treatment of Civil Servants certainly suggests
that rot is rampart within the ranks .. right through to what is being emitted in faulty misguided legislation
requiring numerous patch ups to fix afterwards ;)
That's what happens when the talent pool is so scarce on the ground and of such poor deficient quality, necessitating
numerous cover ups applied after on all the glowing failures becoming evident for all to see ..

The Front Page: Will Labour’s long list of ministers lost in 2023 derail Chris Hipkins?
Quote:
The Labour Party has had a tumultuous 2023, losing a minister every five to six weeks since Chris Hipkins took over as Prime Minister.
Quote:
NZ Herald deputy political editor and host of the On the Tiles podcast, Thomas Coughlan, tells The Front Page podcast Hipkins looked shell-shocked when fronting media after the news Justice Minister Kiri Allan had been arrested overnight.
“He doesn’t look [to be] in a good place,” Coughlan said.
“I think he’s probably sick of fronting media to talk about his ministers getting into trouble. Officially, he’s talking about wanting to take a supportive approach to a minister who’s obviously going through a rough time … but it would be impossible for him not to think about the fact that this year, he has lost an awful lot of ministers.”
This long list of ministers who have either lost or left their jobs includes former Police Minister Stuart Nash, former Transport Minister Michael Wood, long-time Minister Meka Whaitiri and now former Justice Minister Kiri Allan. If you were to take it back even further, you could also include the loss of former PM Jacinda Ardern at the beginning of the year.
The question is whether the latest departure will become the nail in the coffin for the Labour Government.

Kiri Allan breaks silence, reveals she won’t stand in this year’s election
Quote:
Kiri Allan will not be contesting this year’s election so she can heal and “chart a new course” for her life following her mental health struggles that led to her crashing her car in Wellington on Sunday.
In a social media post, Allan apologised to Prime Minister Chris Hipkins and to her party members for her actions.

Poor little fellow - after just 6 months at the steering wheel, looks like he needs a very long holiday ;)

Prime Minister Hipkins failing to arrest regular Cabinet minister departures
Quote:
First a quiz – name the month Labour got through this year without sacking a cabinet minister, having one resign, or quit Parliament.
Give up? February.
Seven months. Five ministers gone, former minister of justice Kiri Allan the latest after drink-driving and resisting arrest.
Former prime minister Jacinda Ardern was first when she resigned in January, then left in April, as the hits keep on coming, with an election three months away.
A trail of Ministerial carnage never seen before ;)
Well done Labour
Could this be the opening shots in a Campaign on The Road to Zero Ministers ? ;)

The Kiri Allan saga means the result of the election may have been sealed
Quote:
OPINION: The Prime Minister did the right thing giving Kiritapu Allan the green light to come back to work but once again - as with so many of his best laid plans since becoming PM, it doesn’t matter. Chris Hipkins will be punished at the polls.
This thread reminds me of Whale Oil.
No matter the accuracy let's just throw mud & see if it sticks.
Continual nasty put downs of anyone who has a different opinion.
I wonder what an investigative journalist might think about what's written here & perhaps who is really behind it.
Daytr spends zero time making coherent, thoughtful points & pretty much 100% of the time bagging out other posters and rubbishing the quality of the thread.
Nobody made up a story about Kiri Allen. It is a matter of fact and public record that she drove under the influence, crashed into a parked car, and then ‘refused to accompany a police officer to the police station’.
No matter how much you regret these facts exist Daytr, they do. Wishing, hoping, or getting angry will not change these facts. They will be discussed, at length.
I will not diminish the responsibility of someone to make the correct call once they are under the influence and considering driving, particularly not a Minister of the Crown who is making important decisions every day that impact on all New Zealanders.
Oh the irony of your post, writing of being coherent when I haven't mentioned the Kiri Allen saga once.
But hey this is the standard of this thread, just write anything, someone will believe it.
Like the Whale Oil blog, absolutely no integrity, none.
Nicky Hager was the journalist I believe that uncovered the links of Cameron Slater to Judith Collins. I'm sure he would find the activity on here interesting.
