did you know, that this here page comes up as the No.1. result in Google for the phrase

most pompus man in parliament

that’s Google.com mind you, not just “pages from New Zealand”
http://www.google.com/search?q=most+pompous+man+in+Parliament

another search engine optimisation score from the frogmaster!

meanwhile, does anyone have any links to copies of the UF ppt to share? Ideally it would be good to have copies of the page on their site that announced and promoted it too.

another thing about UFs ppt gaffe was when Larry Baldock said on saturday “I’d be very surprised. I don’t know anything about that at all.” as if it hadn’t happened and was some media conspiracy.

I can’t work out if was spectacularly dumb campaigning or whether it was an attempt at getting in the papers with some dog whistle politics to try and attract some “anti-PC” types.

Oh dear

Go to Frog Blog and read about the United Future powerpoint presentation.

I’m not sure if it is offensive, more so lame as to be painful.

But never fear there are many copies floating around, such as the one making a beeline for my personal website.

Well, that disappeared quickly. Quick Peter, put it down the memory hole.

Wow. Not only is this offensive… “Does not have a wife who is from Singapore”, but who would have, even in passing, though this was a good thing to post? Also, what a crappy PPT. Ugly template, tick boxes are not aligned, this looks like it was put together at morning tea.

Go to the United front page: http://www.unitedfuture.org.nz

It’s halfway down.

So, if it’s a hoax, it’s a hoax by someone who has access to the United Future site.

Come on, this is an elaborate and very clever hoax. Isn’t it?

Given the slagging of the Green Party we continually see from Dunne I doubt that he has a right to the claim of being able to work constructively with others. Could he work constructively in a Greens in a Labour-Greens-UF government if one were to form?

Oh come on frog, a grammatical error is hardly a United Future press release gaffe now is it, now if you want a United Future press release gaffe, how about,

9th Dec 2003 Dunne makes a mistake (on a Tuesday) when he says has been waiting for three days for Nandor to “in any way acknowledge” the 25-year Christchurch School of Medicine study. He missed the fact that Nandor did comment on the study, on Sunday the 7th! Perhaps Dunhill should have actually checked before writing that.

Nandor: 07/12/03 Prohibition the cause, not solution

Dunhill: 9/12/03 25-year study versus Nandor’s shared ignorance

BTW, This is taken from my “What has he Dunne now?” page on the NORML website, which cataloges the abusive hypocritical statements of Peter Dunne MP – there don’t seem to be as many nowadays he seems to have delegated the abusive PRs to other MPs in the last year. Still I’d be interested in updating it if you know of any others
