"I just say that with something like this, I think everyone in public life – whether they are media personalities or a politician or whoever – we're all vulnerable to someone deciding they will try a private prosecution and I think that is an issue of some concern,"
Is this implying that she who must be obeyed, thinks that politicians should not be accountable in the courts?
Has Helen been watching how Mugabe and company are immune from their courts?
RR, I put a comment about that over in No Minister. It sure sounds ominous. Hypothetical--if Clark refused to hold an election and declared herself El Presidente for life on NZ, exactly what could anybody do about it?
We welcome thoughtful disagreement. But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me. PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
