He can only deal with 5 second sound bites at a time, especially if he doesn't get the instant answer he wants. He just doesn't know how to debate, or how to listen, and perhaps give a person enough rope to hang themselves. He just makes himself look like an idiot. (In fact I haven't seen any good TV political debates since the days of Enoch Powell in the UK :) )	Terry Porritt (14)

1351169	2013-08-15 08:00:00	I did have to laugh at John Key saying that the country needs security ... like NORTONS on your computer !!! Ye Gods ... I think I heard the laughter coming from the GCSB from down here ... and this twit is running the country ... bugger me !!	SP8's (9836)

1351171	2013-08-15 08:32:00	I'm surprised to say (given that I don't always approve of his attitude) that I think John Key did marvellously well, and John Campbell just came across as a dick.	george12 (7)
1351172	2013-08-15 09:16:00	I did have to laugh at John Key saying that the country needs security ... like NORTONS on your computer !!! Exactly! www.3news.co.nz <-- For those who wanna "catch up". So on the one hand +John Key says the GCSB has only "helped" with 88 cases in the last decade (What does that make the annual running cost of the GCSB vs the 88 cases to give us a cost-per-case basis?). Then he also says the GCSB only act as an "Antivirus or antimalware", providing protection. Then he also says they only get involved for "Terrorism or weapons of mass destruction". So they're either protecting terrorists against malware, or they're protecting us from Weapons of Mass Destruction by scanning emails and trying to act as antivirus? Finally he says they never see any "content" and it's purely "metadata" (Like the TO: field in your email, the subject, or the EXIF information in your pictures)? But yet they act as anti-malware and antivirus.... without knowing the actual content? Something horribly fishy is going on there...	Chilling_Silence (9)
1351173	2013-08-15 09:51:00	Problem is Chill ... we'll never hear about unless a report is leaked or one of the forum members can hack into the system ... I'll let you know when the guys in black knock the front door down :D	SP8's (9836)
