...further millions from all of us, it transpires, though Key denied it, English tried to hide it but someone noticed it...
I/S @ NoRightTurn explores the situation where 'hospital money' from Key's asset flog-off is to be diverted directly to the banks owed money by Solid Energy. What a debacle!
"So, to the long list of things which will supposedly be funded by asset sales cash (schools, hospitals, roads, railways, and a partridge in a pear tree), we can now add bailing out Solid Energy. Key himself denied it on live radio this morning, but the government has now admitted it: money from selling a productive asset will now be "invested" in a ruined one. And this from the party which pitches itself as "good economic managers"...
This is simply throwing good money after bad. Solid Energy is a failed company in an industry without a future. It is neither strategic nor profitable, and therefore should be left to fail.
Meanwhile, Key's response suggests that he is either clueless about the actions of the government he is supposedly leading, or deliberately dishonest. Neither is a good look, and his denial and retration speak volumes about the rot which is setting into this government."

what do you expect from someone whose idea of creating a dynamic modern economy is invest public money in cycle trails casinos, sports stadiums and conventions centres.
It was sillybilly who bled solid energy of "dividends" that they had to borrow to pay who got SE into the crap in the first place.
These fools have no idea.
SillyBilly indeed, darkhorse, yet in the House, he's all cocky and responsible for nothing other than tremendous success in every venture he's involved with.
