They say it is a game changer.

So, does anyone have any theories?

Or is all this some elaborate publicity stunt?

1243464 2011-11-14 06:15:00 Or is all this some elaborate publicity stunt?I'm guessing this - publicity stunt by the paper, and possibly an attempt to swing the election a bit. There's no way to effectively rebut the claims without releasing the audio, and releasing the audio opens up a whole can of worms that should really be left closed (and essentially endorses the recording method).

I personally think the HoS (and their cameraman) deserve to be on the wrong end of a lawsuit for this.

So why was it left on the table for the duration of the chat ?

I do think National should not have bothered with Act and hoped they would not need a coalition partner.
This is just drawing more attention to these shenagagins.

I do think National should not have bothered with Act and hoped they would not need a coalition partner.They may not need one this time, but bear in mind that they'll almost certainly need at least one in 2014 - they're mighty short on potential allies, so allowing Act to disintegrate isn't exactly a smart idea.

Don’t think so Lawrence, because whilst your vote won’t change a thing for at least six years anyway, always remember the old Adage.

1243472 2011-11-14 07:12:00 I'm pretty sure they didn't get that law passed, and the evidence in question has been deemed illegal.

This election is going to be a train wreck, Labour will get **** all votes but all the scabby small parties will align with them to make up an incompetent government at the worst possible time.

mana, maori, greens,labour, sickening.
