Helen Clark the most Despicable Prime Minister in History

Make no mistake, it was Clark and Cullun who were behind turning down the Canadian pension fund buying into Auckland Airport International and it was the wrong decision. This extreme far left Government who would rather do deals with China than North America, are showing that they have moved on from being a socialist party to a communist one.

As someone said on a share trader blog

"Do you really think they are going to step in when the Chinese tries to buy Vector Limited?"

It's disappointing for all New Zealanders who do share trading, doesn't matter if your a newbie like myself or someone who has been investing in the markets for decades.

You see what certain left wing bloggers and the media and Clark/Cullun don't understand is that , no one should have the right to tell me, who I can and who I cannot sell my shares to, this is what it comes down to in a nutshell.

Its not nothing to do with selling strategic assets, nothing about keeping it for little Jimmy or Sarah so they can travel to their airport and fly somewhere to watch the All Blacks, but wait and see there are going to be ads featuring people of all ages and cultures, smiling sweetly, saying "It's our airport" they will say this in all different languages, there will be members of the Green Party, saying it belongs to everybody, well that I'm afraid is sickening and insulting.

It doesn't belong to Jimmy or Sarah, or the Nigerian immigrant who loves being a kiwi. It doesn't belong to the good folks of the east coast singing on their Marae. It doesn't belong to the Pakeha or the Asian or anyone WHO DIDN'T INVEST IN IT!!!

It belongs to the SHAREHOLDERS, people like myself and no one in any decent system of democracy should have the right to tell me who I can or cannot sell my shares too, but we don't live in a decent democracy anymore thanks to Helen.

She has killed off foreign invest in our country.

(The Following has a Prison Break Spoiler)

In the last episode of season three of Prison Break that is due to air in New Zealand in two weeks, there's a scene when Tbag has over taken the Prison at Sona and gives a speech, he receives 50 thousand dollars from a outside contact and begins to tell the other prisoners that "everybody is equal, and everything belongs to everybody, he starts to hand out the money, of course keeping most of it to himself.

This sums up Helen Clark and her Communist Party to a tee, they think they know what is best for you, they will tell you that they are giving you gifts, and worst of all, while actually taking your money, they will make out that its in your best interest.

Its about control folks, we don't know whats best for us, so it's best to leave the decisions to Helen and if your thinking about buying shares, I would think twice, you never know if the most Despicable Prime Minister in History would try and guilt trip the media and public into letting the government make that decision for us.

OF all the takeovers i have seen this is the worst, but the gut feeling is it wont go ahead there will be much yelling on both sides of everything when the dust settles it will be a 19.9% grab at a much cheaper price they could even use the creep method after that and still one day gain control but much CHEAPER every one will know FRIDAY..

BRICKS hates to say , But i told you so an this was the worse t/o in NZ history as there is not many true companies left in NZ you should be grateful that AIA stays that way myself have lost money but happy with the outcome so the company can now get back to WORK..

A man was walking down a street, when he saw a house on Sale. He stopped and started asking the neighbours if the Sale of the house should be stopped, as the new buyer was relatively unknown. Better the devil you know, than the devil you don't. The neighbours said the house shouldn't be sold. So the man walked in the house, slapped the owners, locked the house up, threw away the sale sign, and shooed away the buyer. The man felt so happy, as he had done what the community wanted.

Moral: Sellers are not part of the community. Their opinion doesn't matter. You have the right to stop the sale of what doesn't belong to you. You can do it again and again with impunity. Go the Man. We love the Man.

[redzone]

IF THIS GOVERNMENT WANTED TO KEEP THE AIRPORT SO BABLY WHY DIDNT THEY BUY IT....CORRUPT CORRUPT CORRUPT...Just like the purchase of Air NZ eight years ago...Cullen and Clark should be in jail

[Dr_Who]

Will the market put a discount on the valuation now that there are no T/O premium?

It is moving back up now. My guess is it was just an overreaction as people got rid of shares that they only bought to get the take over premium.

Disc: hold. Buy order for more didn't get hit (2c off)
