1417853 2016-03-21 20:16:00 to have such an upfront, honest and transparent Prime Minister?

HERE (www.tvnz.co.nz)

Firstly, he gets a High Court Order to suppress the contents of the tape.
(wonder what was on it that was going to be such an embarrassment?)

Then he gets sued for comments he made about a Reporter, and to save further embarrassment in Court, settles for an undisclosed sum in a confidential agreement.

But it gets worse, he wants you and I to pay, but not be told how much and what for.

What a Leader, what a Statesman. :rolleyes:

1417857 2016-03-21 20:50:00 This all came about when he , acting as as leader of the Nats, NOT as the PM (as he claimed) was trying to do a deal with John Banks.

So , he was acting as a member of the Nats, NOT acting as PM , NOT on official PM business (as he claims)
So, if anything , the Nat Party should pay..... I dont think that reporter should get even $1 anyway :)

Its all a bit too dodgy. It must be a huge payout, otherwise Im sure he'd just pay it himself .

Well that is what Key and his "Spin doctors" would like us to believe, but I can’t think of a similar incident.

Maybe someone can help out with examples?

Yes, he doesn’t even seem sure himself which hat he was wearing at the time.

But there must have been something real dodgy on those tapes to justify such extreme measures. :confused:
