National: Summed up

"National blew the VIP entertainment budget for the Rugby World Cup by $5 million, despite none of the promised big names actually turning up. They got the extra dosh out of Mfat’s budget. In unrelated news, the government is cutting the Greens’ Warm Up New Zealand programme, which has returned four times its costs in benefits. There’s no money, you see."

This post, on The Standard, says so much, so succinctly. Go there, if you've the time and inclination, and read the post and the comments I expect will accrue.
