I know it is petty but I just can´t help myself. Whenever I see that John Key television commercial with him in the front seat of the car, I don´t hear a word he is saying. I´m simply waiting for the driver to slam on the brakes and for the dear leader to go through the windscreen.
I know it is petty, but while others are getting prosecuted for posting videos of themselves doing stupid, illegal things on the net, shouldn´t John at least be getting a ticket for driving without his seat belt?
I wonder if the segment was filmed in his Crown Limousine? While I have no qualms with party leaders having drivers, I do question the need for posh gas guzzlers to get to and from the airport. When John is getting chauffeured, does he always sit up front? Or is this just a vain attempt to avoid looking pampered and appear to be one of us ordinary folk? Don´t ordinary people have to buckle up, by law?
I wonder if he would need to be chauffeured and/or behave the same way while driving the economy?

Frog, Surely something as important to New Zealand and the people is the economic situation.
Perhaps you would be better focussed on Bernard Hickeys column

Ans see what the Greens can do to stop the next bout of rogernomics.

Yeah, it is petty frog, John Key is an opponent you guys can and should respect.
Its a shame the party of “principle” and “honesty” is not also the party of basic dignity.

Gerrit – I see that you got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning too! Just like BB. Did I not highlight my post as petty, and even a bit tongue in cheek?
I am worried about the next round of rogernomics under Mr Key, and will continue to support our election campaign and all our other efforts to prevent it from happening. You say that things must be bleak for me. Indeed, it is your comments that wallow in the bleak reality of our financial crisis.

I guess you are trying to say something frog, but I cant quite work it out.
Let me try;
The economic situation is bleak, it is real (therefore my reality), my wallowing comments refer you back to the bleak economic reality that face New Zealand.
So I’m having some impact. Good.
Got you away from thinking about John Key for a while, so that is good too.

Surely it’s entirely a matter for him whether he wears a seatbelt or not?

Interesting comment Wat… so you are against seat belt laws, and think a potential Prime Minister shot set an example of free thinking by breaking the law?

Frog, got proof he’s not wearing his seatbelt? I would have thought that if you were right thousands of wowsers would have condemned him by now.
There are several shots of him doing his chat in the car in the campaign launch video, in these segments he definitely is wearing his seatbelt.

Surely it is wat, just as surely as it is a matter for sharp eyed commentators to ping him if he doesn’t wear one.

The youtube link of mine that hasn’t appeared is of the 12 minute National Party campaign launch video. There are several clips in the video of Key doing his ‘in the car chat’, it’s clear that he is wearing his seatbelt.

Alistair,
It depends if he voted for the law in the first place. If he didn’t, then there is indeed much to be said in favour of a future PM breaking such a law. I could respect that.

Hilarious to hear him on Eye to Eye this morning describing his Nat party (should they be successful) as a ‘One Eyed Monster’ – brilliant!
