    I thought there was a lot of polarisation under Key - the Cult of Key was very strong.
    Even allowed to pull pony tails with impunity.

    He delivered on multiple fronts despite his failings.

    What has Cindy delivered in her year of delivery?

    It seems endless ammo for your rants and ravings.

    No comment on your Hijab lie?
    No apology?

    I find it interesting that the Hijab is very similar to head coverings that very Christian women wore years ago and much like a Nuns head covering - it is very reverent really.
    It seems to be offensive only if worn for a Muslim reason.

    Now the Burqa - quite a different kettle of fish.
    Read this and tell us again that Cindy knows better.

    If she does know better, she is intentionally then throwing dirt in the face of oppressed Muslim women.

    An opinion piece and that person is entitled to their opinion (from a year ago).

    You are unable to admit you are wrong - and you are.
    Or do you stand by your statement on France and Turkey?

    1498 new Jobseeker benefit recipients last week. Better not say 1500 Judith.

    Slightly less than the numbers coming off CIRP. That may indicate those have found jobs but not necessarily because of the CIRP criteria such as the very much increased partner income permitted for CIRP. (That means some CIRP recipients will not qualify for JS.)
