22 November. Bill English attacks Labour over "shambles"

22 November. "This bill is a shambles," Bill English tells the House during a passionate 10 minute speech attacking the Labour Party's new bill on election financing. The bill is all about Labour's lust for power, not fair elections or free speech, he says. "There are six weeks until it applies. Labour has ensured that election 2008 will be as much about the rules for the election as about the future of the country."

Problem is dotocomo that the NZ public can not actually DO anything to stop it. Cullen was on TV asked by a reporter why carry on with the bill when the vast majority of NZ's oppose it and his reply was that the popel just didnt understand it! You can deal with this pack of ivory tower, pseudo-intellectual, arrogant fascists at all.

Theyve pretty much never done anything important, apart from passing ridiculous laws and legalising things that should never be legalised.
