    Good summary of winners & losers from David Clark's sacking.

    https://thedailyblog.co.nz/2020/07/0...inners-losers/

    Excerpt : "Ashley Bloomfield – Never before has a public servant managed to kill of their own Minister with such ease, David Clark is a lung, Ashley is the Covid Virus."

    And what does this picture tell you about Comrade Cindy & her team of incompetents?

    Garbage speech with no substance & no economic achievements from a cynical & grubby woman, only interested in breeding more beneficiaries & voter base.

    So the only policy of substance she announced looks like it could pull support from the Greens. What the hell do they actually intend to do other than clean up waterways? (meant to be done by now according to their last election promises)

    There is already doubt about the "shovel readiness" of their infrastructure spend, and if their delivery record on Kiwibuild and Lightrail is anything to go by we have more cockups in the making. What is in there to inspire even a die hard Labour supporter? I would genuinely like to hear.

    When you're generally on the right track there isn't much of a need to do anything else.

    Even although you’re correct, a shallow vacuous presentation, the way you express it is disgusting. Reflect on that, it’s not what you say it is how you say it.

    Does that mean they have given up on their lofty but unfulfilled goals on child poverty and housing, to name a couple ? Neither of those areas are "generally on the right track"

    Genuine die hard Labour supporters don't need anything in there at all. Most of them are motivated simply by the totally irrational fear of National winning.

    Don't recall that.
    Clark was never the Minister of State Services or leader of the house.
    I wouldn't have said he was on to it!

    Correct they could be bad for the economy and often sell everything off to overseas located interests.

    I'm a swing voter and happy to change my view when the facts change.

    Here is what happens when you engage in the REQUIRED diversity of IDENTITY POLITICS. People get promoted above their capabilities. Now Clare Curran is playing the victim card as the election campaign opens. I'm sure she has been through a tough time and I certainly don't wish her any ill, but she has to look at her old flatmate Cindy for the cause of her problems, not National.

    The PM was so desperate to have female faces at the Cabinet table that she appointed two women that were out of their depth. Both had to be booted out by Cindy within 12 months.

    Curran, who happily took a Minister's salary, a salary that reflects the huge responsibility the role entails, breached the ethics of the very Ministry she was in charge of....Cindy's wonderful Minister responsible for Openess and Transparency (something her government has repeatedly fallen short on).

    What were National meant to do? Let her dishonesty around her meetings go unexposed. The PM could have sacked her immediately and saved her from humiliation in the House. That's on the PM, not the Nats.

    Melissa Lee sums it up well at the end of the article. Also, having Jami-Lee Ross in your corner ain't a good look.

    Labour has hung their "victim" out to dry all over again for their own purposes. This is the true face of Smiley Cindy. Cynical to her core. If they really cared about Clare Curran they would make sure she remained out of the spotlight.
