Twelve rodents departing the sinking ship:

Key’s management style has always been… purchase what you need, bribe [$75.000 gift to Maori Party] rather than negotiate, and this is the style that he brought from his past bosses on Wall Street.

Have you ever heard of Josie Pagani? Heard her on TV or on Afternoons with Jim Mora? No, well she was a Labour Party Candidate for Rangitikei in 2011 and she failed badly, why because she was never really Labour, she was a Shane Jones brand of Labour and he was a Roger Douglas clone.

Later she got the brush-off from Labour and the name Pagani [of either] gender became a thing of the past. She was bitter, and that was evident for all to see.

So from that moment onward she became the darling of the right wing media team assembled over the last few years by the Nats PR spin team, she joined Shane Jones as someone to whom the media would go to get the comments they wanted to hear. She never disappointed them; she said what they wanted to hear. So don’t be surprised if the Nats offer her a job just as they did with Shane Jones. They could make her a spokesperson for stray cats, or wayward bunnies, she could with a little make-over become a star of Seven-Sharp on TV One joining up with bad mouth Mike Hoskins making super Nats inspired negative comments about David Cunliffe, Russell Norman, while bowing and scraping to John Key as he sells our independence and self-respect to the USA, which will in the end take us into a irreversible international conflict with China as the US prepares for armed conflict with China over its move into the Pacific region.

Why do you think our young men and women were sacrificed in Afghanistan and Iraq, it had nothing to do with fighting terrorism and all to do with appeasing the US.

Bomber on his blog site [TDB] wrote the following: 

How do the MSM get away with slurring all working class men as sexist and that be acceptable? How does a Fox News democrat like Josie Pagani, who only manages to get louder as she becomes more irrelevant, justify vandalising the Labour brand on TV for the same petty reasons that Jones did? And while we are on it, since when the hell was, wanting hungry children clothed, fed and educated akin to a ‘lurch to the left’?

There are those who remain true to some political principles and those who use the political scene as simply a chance to make some easy cash, the Shane Jones, Josie Pagani type fit this category, Labour under the control of Douglas, Prebble and others bred heaps of false representatives of working people. Two years ago the real working people in the Labour Party saw the light and like the Greens before them they reshaped the Labour Party into a more open and transparent political party. Yes the membership did this and from that moment on the Shane Jones, Josie Pagani types were gone, cast aside by the real movers, the membership.

The Greens and the Mana Movement already are open and transparent, the National Party has yet to undergo this revolutionary and openly democratic change from within, and their internal workings are still deeply embedded in secrecy and covertness. 

At this point twelve of their MPs have decided to leave…this is called revitalisation… yeah right…when in fact its rats departing a sinking ship…when added to the four or five other National MPs who have quit the scene for handpicked jobs from their mates or been sacked,  it is obvious that they too could see the writing on the wall. Let’s be honest, they brought John Banks, a accused fraudster and they kept Peter Dunne even after he leaked confidential information to a reporter from Fairfax media. And for that he got promoted, now how good is that. 

Who are the twelve rodents departing the sinking ship: Shane Ardern, Chris Auchinvole, John Hayes, Phil Heatley, Paul Hutchison, Colin King, Eric Roy, Tony Ryall, Chris Tremain, Tau Henare and Kate Wilkinson. Eight are electorate MP’s while four are List MP’s. A question worthy of answering by the main stream media is, where are the stories relating the mass departure of around 20% of sitting National Party MP’s… in any other country the media would be highlighting that fact but here in NZ the word is say nothing that could reveal the disenchantment that exists amongst the National Party and what is left of its supporters.    

Key’s management style has always been… purchase what you need, bribe [$75.000 gift to Maori Party] rather than negotiate, and this is the style that he brought from his past bosses on Wall Street. It has worked thus far. But maybe the public are waking up, look at Key’s mates, Whale Oil, Sky City, Hollywood crooks, the CIA, Obama and his Drones, Judith Collins and her Chinese business mates, Steven Joyce…

I think it’s time to change, it’s time to hope, it’s time to seriously consider whom you’ll vote for, and most importantly vote…because not voting is exactly what Key is relying on.   

Shane Jones Adult video critic resigns...thank God.

That is why he took money from a National Cabinet Minister's spouse for his leadership campaign of the Labour Party, that is why he was double-dipping on the Fisheries Commission whilst an MP, that is why he ordered porn on his Ministerial Credit card when he was in Europe on official business, that is why he was always a sell-out.  It's all about him and all about the money.

A happy Shane Jones...His adult viewing habits had just been made public.

A few days ago I wrote a quick blog on the subject of Shane Jones a labour party list MP taking money from his political [so-called] enemy to fund his failed [He came third out of three] leadership bid. If you didn’t read the blog here it is:

http://wheelerscornernz.blogspot.co.nz/2014/04/fishy-money-for-fishy-shane-jonesso.html  in it I wrote among other things:

Mr Jones revealed to the Herald that Sir Wira gave $1000 and NZ Oil and Gas board member Rodger Finlay also donated money to help the MP to pay for his campaign to win the Labour leadership last September. More interestingly, though, is that Jones was also funded by the oil industry:

Over the last few days the Main Stream Media have been attempting to imply that Jones would be a great loss to the world of politics…that is simply crap of the highest order. Heaps of blog sites have been pushing this line of rubbish: The best blog I could find on the subject was by Tim Selwyn a professional journalist of high standing, So here it is and it is worthy of careful consideration.

Shane Jones is on Radio Live as I type this, explaining that he quit politics because he just couldn't be arsed etc.  "No reservoir of energy to..." as he put it.  Ridiculous...  Retirement at 54...  A career beginning and ending in a blathering, blustering bombardment of English, wrapped in Maori metaphors.  Jones was promoted on the basis of promise, but has delivered only to himself.  He is basically a lazy party boy with a big yap hole. The great waha of the North, What has he done?

He is saying he is nothing but "true to himself" - no shit!  It's always been about him - that is why he is taking this financially-induced waka-jumping stunt of McCully's, that is why he took money from a National Cabinet Minister's spouse for his leadership campaign of the Labour Party, that is why he was double-dipping on the Fisheries Commission whilst an MP, that is why he ordered porn on his Ministerial Credit card when he was in Europe on official business, that is why he was always a sell-out.  It's all about him and all about the money.  Despite what Jones would claim, no "tribally Labour" MP would go begging to Murray-fucking-McCully the priest, councillor and lord plenopotentiary of the New Zealand National Party for anything let alone to arrange one's own political exit package.

No loss to Labour in the long term, but a definite gain in the short term for the Nats.

No difficult questions will be asked in parliament over this corrupt practice of patronage - the procurement and secret commission - as Jones is everyone's mate it seems: Labour are too embarrassed to highlight this induced defection, and the NZ First leader - like all the other Maori politicians it appears - don't want to criticise because he is Maori.  This is pathetic, Jones is a right wing arsehole from what I have seen and heard.  His vaunted working class credentials were advanced by the right, but were nothing more than Jones' conservative instincts that the pundits themselves wanted mirrored in an acceptably Pakeha-ised Maori. Trotter on Radio Live was being far too sympathetic.  Jones spoke to blokedom against narrower identity factions - a small part in keeping a wide church, but Jones came at a cost, and Labour just isn't paying its way.

The pig finds a different way to grease his way to the trough.  Shane Jones' political epitaph will not be complementary.  The bullshit McCully made-up role he is to take up covers the Nat's agenda: brown-washing tokenism to disguise the real power imbalance and exclusion of Maori at home, and a pro-privatisation and exploitation voice in the Islands.

So there it is: The truth clearly stated and explained no room for doubt. The Labour Party has had its share of crawling vermin; Roger Douglas got knighted for his double cross, Richard Prebble betrayed the Labour movement and now Shane Jones has joined the long list of politicians who do little else than chase the public dollars and were captured by the mighty dollar handed out by a free spending National Party who takes from the poor to reward the greedy. Here ends the lesson.    

Fishy money for Fishy Shane Jones…so much for honesty.

Wira Gardner.

It has just been reported that Jones has quit the Labour Party and joined the Nats....

Sir Wira Gardner, that ex-military man, anti-Bill Rowling fan…divorced and now married to National education whiz kid Hekia Parata, he also ran for National Party President but was soundly defeated now has a new role for the Nats…chief bribery officer. 

Among his target was good old adult video fan ‘Shane Jones’ famous for getting Parliamentary Services to pay for his adult viewing habits.

Now somehow Wira Gardner managed to convince his boss [John Key or Steven Joyce] to part with a thousand bucks to help Shane Jones win the labour party leadership…

Mr Jones revealed to the Herald that Sir Wira gave $1000 and NZ Oil and Gas board member Rodger Finlay also donated money to help the MP to pay for his campaign to win the Labour leadership last September. More interestingly, though, is that Jones was also funded by the oil industry:

  Hence Jones mouth started to move into rapid speed mode in condemning the Greens over their opposition to mining and drilling, so it would appear that Shane Jones will lean toward and speak for whoever pays the most. So it might be fair for us to consider that his entire verbal [under the cover of parliamentary privilege] ranting against Countdown, has been paid for by Food-Town’s competition.

It has been obvious for years that Shane Jones is perfect National Party material, his style and right wing beliefs clearly indicate his anti-worker behaviors. But I honestly believe that he would be better suited in the new ACT party. He could be the new censor of adult videos and under sized fish.

Seriously folks if overweight Sir Wira Gardner likes to give away a thousand bucks to an over-grown school boy playing politics, well that’s over to him, and who gives a hoot. After all the Chinese based companies seem to have pots of money to give to the Nats [Latest 57 thousand dollars for a game of golf with guess who [John Key]. And they in turn have money running out their ears when they raised 75 thousand dollars for the Maori Party. These days its hard to workout who is bribing who and even why.

Of course Shane Jones will tell you that it’s only Maori helping Maori, all I can say to that is “Yeah right”…

Easter at the Key's Crib

Eavesdropper’s Easter Report.

Even the Prime Ministers security crew have to work over Easter and Wheeler’s Corner inside man in the GCSB was no exception. And like all good security agents his eyes and ears were fully functioning over the Easter period.

Now the PM John Key, you’ve no doubt heard that he is good friends, no really good friends with key players in the local Auckland Chinese business community. Key believes strongly that China and its Communist, ultra controlling government is the way to go. Well over Easter at his two million dollar beach-side crib [South Island word for beach house] he held serious discussions with a Chinese government official, who just happened to be a very good friend of Judith Collins and her husband and who just happened to be a keen golfer. For the purpose of this report I will refer to this strange chap as X, we spy types always call villains X, it’s sort of traditional.

All comments from Mr X were translated by Judith Collins husband

“Ah, Mr X it’s good to meet you face to face at last, Judith has told me all about you and especially what you did to get clearance for that milk into China during the Fonterra scare”, said wee John as he bowed his head and offered his hand.

“It is nice to amongst you all oh mighty leader of New Zealand”, said Mr X whilst lowering his head.

“Thank you, but please call me simply Prime Minister rather than mighty leader, now would you like something to drink Mr X, a wine, brandy or a glass of NZ milk”, asked the PM as he led them to the patio table and chairs.

“Thank you PM but I would prefer to call you Mighty Leader because that’s the way we do things in the democratic republic of China”, Your country is very lovely and very profitable, why only yesterday I bought and sold two properties and made a huge profit and since you don’t have any capital gains taxes it’s even more rewarding to do business here in NZ”.

As they all sat down a servant brought them their drinks, a bottle of Dutch beer for the PM, a glass of milk for Judith’s husband, a diet coke for Judith and a Chinese brandy for Mr X. I and the other security crew were offered a class of water, there was me and my SIS mate and two US undercover agents pretending to be police Officers.

“Now Mr X you won’t forget to tell your leaders that this meeting was really just a social meeting about golf and rugby with your very dear friend Judith and her hubby and myself because I realise how touchy they can be regarding anything that could be called a possible conflict of interest…that was a very near thing when you had lunch with Judith in Shanghai we were bloody lucky to get away with that shady deal back here. The bloody Greens are demanding changes”, said the PM as he sipped his Dutch beer.

“I can’t understand why you have to put up with the Greens after all you are the PM why don’t you just arrest them and lock them up, that’s what we do back in China, even the Americans do the same all the time…they just drone their enemies”, replied Mr X.

“Yes, it would be handy to be able to remove the God-Damn Greens, the Mana crowd, the aging NZ First mob and the moaning multitude in the Labour Party, to get rid of that lot I’d have to knock off half the country”, said the PM sounding very whimsical and trancelike.

“Don’t worry, John we’ll work it out. When we’ve won the election, then bit by bit we’ll clear the country of the unwanted and unwashed, we’ll ban unemployment and we’ll force those too lazy to get a job to an island off PNG, one that will end up under water because of climate change. That’ll get rid of thousands of Maori and the Mana Party and then we can invite Don Brash back into the fold”, said a beaming glowing Judith Collins as she roughed up the hair of her husband.

“Don’t do that, her husband muttered I’m not your little lap dog…”

“Right then said the PM we had better get down to business and see if we can’t find a way to change our style of government to one more like the Chinese model, one where governments to exactly what they wish, when they wish and how they wish. After all that’s what the US, Russia and China and even the UK does these days…so why shouldn’t we? He said sounding like a modern day Napoleon on the brink of going to war against Tsarist Russia.   

Eavesdropper was hoping to learn more but the PM suddenly ordered all the security staff to move away from the elaborate patio and massive swimming pool area and indoors into the over decorated lounge where the PMs Wife sat knitting and watching a re-run of Coronation Street…you can’t really blame a wife for the sins of her husband can you…but then again Judith Collins behaviour may cause you to think differently.

Eavesdropper will be reporting again next week and I’ll share with you…
