Key appoints two ambassadors












Prime Minister John Key has announced the appointment of Sarah Ulmer as ambassador for his flagging cycleway project, in the hope that Ulmer's celebrity profile will obscure the poor progress of the idea Key touted at the now infamous 'Jobs Summit' talkfest of the first term of the NActional Government.
Key's second appointment, that of ex-Prime Minister Mike Moore, as Ambassador for Pandas represents a desperate effort by the now-Prime Minister to cover the failure of his 'swap an icon with China' project. The 'panda to the Chinese' miscall was a spectacular failure for Key, but we should all thank our lucky stars his cloud-bouncing mind hadn't settled on, say, an elephant!
