    Very clever line from the PM:

    “Labour is ambitious for New Zealand. National is ambiguous.”

    Just a pity there hasn’t been much substance to back her rhetoric, especially re environmental standards and housing affordability.

    Greens are amphibious for New Zealand? Frog?

    I also liked the bit about the Nat’s hidden agenda.

    Of course she did not mention her hidden agenda, S59, ETS, EFA etc..

    She is corrupt and the people of NZ will kick her out come Nov 8.

    In the blogosphere, no one can hear you groan.

    More bull big bro, you having a bad day? S59 wasn’t Clark’s idea, as you usually love to point out, and neither the ETS nor the EFA were hidden.

    “She is corrupt and the people of NZ will kick her out come Nov 8.”

    May do, but it won’t make the Beehive any less corrupt, though on the Nats current form, it would make it less competent.

    BB, the section 59 Bill had been introduced and received a First Reading before the 2005 election. It wasn’t really an election issue, and no-one seemed concerend about it until some extremist fundamentalist Christian groups began a concerted and very effective disinformation campaign after the election.

    The ETS had been on the agenda ever since Labour backtracked on the carbon tax (if anything was a hidden agenda, that backtrack was, because the carbon tax was part of Labour’s 2002 manifesto, and they didn’t deliver).

    I acknowledge the EFA wasn’t flaggged before the last election, but then neither was the EB spending $1.2m in proxy advertising to try to get National elected. Something had to be done to stop a repeat of that.
