Anything you want to talk about? Anything you need to say? Then now’s your chance – anything you’d like to say on any topic you like. On Rodney, on Hone, on leaky homes … on anything you like, really.
I urge anyone who hasn't seen this movie to go and see it. It is great entertainment non-stop from beginning to end.

This might be a good place for Mr Fisi to put forward his list of Three Good Things that Act has done whilst in government. He couldn't find even one on Saturday night, two days must be enough time surely.

Cameron is at least facing the facts: that the only option now is complete withdrawal for Britain.
He's also facing the sad reality that if he campaigns on such a promise, Brown will win.
Yes, withdrawal is the only option, and it's one that should be put to a referendum.
If Cameron were doing a cunning ruse to announce a referendum after he were voted in that would be great. But he isn't. And even if he were, he should take the principled route and be open about it. Otherwise what's the point of him getting voted in anyway?

Stopped Maori seats on the Supercity council.
Driven a three strikes bill through that just might get repeat violent offenders off of our streets..
The regulatory responsibility bill that Rodneys pushing along that will help majorly if enacted.
Voluntary student membership finally becoming a reality.
At least getting a review of the dopey ETS that Nationals ramming through with indecent speed.
Thats off the top of my head.
But remember...they "only got 3.6% of the vote!...whine ,bleat etc!"
All they can do is try to slow down and divert the National juggenaut when possible....while the Libz do what exactly?

Sturminator, I just blogged on that subject--most people have no idea what an enormous advance for totalitarianism this is. No idea at all.

Nope. Gordon Brown signed the irrepealable, self-amending treaty, not Cameron.
