Well I am not inclined to go out and buy fiction. I won't need to buy the book anyway. Media people will go buy it and I will hear about what it alleges.

The photo of John Key in the Southland Times this morning looked very evil

Pity - the autocorrect deleted the word that mattered here......

Don't get angry and out of control with facts.
Take a deep breath and attempt a decision,you may surprise yourself.

501311 2006-11-24 08:29:00 dr brash is a good man.. he just using his business skills but like users say.. Politics is a different game.. u make a misstake they'll make a really big deal out of it. That sums him up pretty nicely. He is basically a good guy trying to make the country a better place. His only downfall was that he wasn't a very good politician. Could you really blame him though? It's not like he made a career out of it like Helen Clark and co did. He tried, and overall, despite a few slips of the tongue when put on the spot, managed to dramatically increase support for National. A pretty good effort really. :) maccrazy (6741)

The difference is that, being a book published in New Zealand, then affected parties can take libel action in a court of law if they have proof of untruth/slander etc.

Winston can give us chapter and verse on this no doubt.

Having seen John Campbell 'expose' of the "Bretheren" emails on TV, Brash has now lost all credibility in my eyes.

Up until that moment I was well prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt, and believe that he hadn't actually read/seen emails sent to him.

I've ordered the book, so it will make an interesting read.

In fact he may just have been licking his (bullet) wounds.

501316 2006-11-28 22:58:00 This morning with the release of yet more emails, it looks even bleaker for "Honest" Don, and for Key for that matter.
