David Garrett on the Greens

"The Greens are Very Very scary…they have significant support, particularly among the young and the educated i.e those who vote the most…and it is increasing…"

Crikey, David!!

I'm trying to be as frightened as you are (but it's difficult).
The young (oh, dear God no! Not the young!!) and the educated (ditto, not them as well!!!!)

There is a great Fear throughout the land, and it's name is RUSSEL (Metiria too, SCARY!!!)

It is scary. Its the fear of the unknown Robert.
People listening and even worse people thinking. What could that lead to! Chaos Change more of those c words.
Challenging times.

I'll cc your comment on the Russel, Philip.

Why would anyone take anything David Garrett says seriously?
Let's start with "David Garrett, the guy who stole the identity of a dead infant" and then view everything his says subsequently in that light.

robertguyton said...

Surely stealing a dead baby's identity is serious, AC?
Oh, I see, anything he says.
Indeed.
There are those who laud his opinion still - Farrar and Keeping Stock for example. What does that say about their ethics, I wonder? Can't put my finger on it, but something's not quite right there...same with the championing of Slater. Quite odd.

Good comment, renitsil - I like your style :-)

This is interesting; it's a nuance to National's strategy for election year.
First we had "good news all the time". Now it's been extended to "good news under National AND fear the prospect of Labour/Greens". The call you made at HP on the post comparing the Greens to a bunch of religious zealots from Afghanistan was right on the money, I wish I'd made it myself. It was a truly awful post.

Thanks. It would not have surprised me if you had. It goes on, there being those who wish to protect the perpetrator.
Tracey's a wind-up. Seems to lack 'self-awareness' button.

National/ Ele is using alarmist tactics in place of informed comment or debate . Perhaps it comes from a 'born to rule' sense of entitlement to the Treasury benches and genuine disbelief that a Labour/Green government could manage or someone is being a calculating b**ch and is deliberately smearing and insulting the opposition and dog whistling to the low life types.

I've called for her to apologise, but she's dodging and weaving. Not a good look for someone who cultivates a genteel image. Frankly, I'm surprised and disappointed. I thought she'd have the backbone. More fool I.

I just wish a political party would go after the people who are taking so much and delivering so little. The over paid CEO's who think they need multi million dollar salaries to do a job. We have many good people who could do similar jobs at the reasonable salary. Attack them with the same energy as the present govt attacks beneficiaries or Winston attacks the Asians. Many people have had a gutsfull of the Don Elders of the world who have left legacies of broken companies needing tax payer bailouts. The first to put this as a major part of their manifesto will grab a huge voter support base

Eat the rich?
The reasoning/excuse that 'you can't get a quality CEO without paying market prices' a lie, in my opinion and is used by the 'CEO Club' to lever extraordinary amounts of money their way. Don still being paid his full salary? I think he is.
