Lest We Forget: Election A Memorial to Ian Mutton

"Saturday's election should serve as a memorial to Ian Mutton, and to his late son Trevor."

Libertarianz finance spokesman Julian Darby said today: "It should serve as a memorial to Mr Mutton, and to the other victims of what Ian Mutton's suicide note called the 'f***ing arseholes' who persecuted him - and other peaceful New Zealanders - to their deaths."

"But," continued Mr Darby,"we should be aware that Saturday's election is likely to also serve as a reminder of New Zealanders' complicity in these deaths. For on Saturday most New Zealanders will go out and vote for political parties who sanction the existence and the activities of the persecutors of Ian Mutton."

"Ian Mutton's tormentors were only following orders."

"New Zealanders; if you do not wish to have the blood of more victims on your hands - or to become such a victim yourselves - then you should consign to oblivion the statist politicians of every stripe who gave those orders, and who nodded when the orders were given. Every politician in that House was culpable. Every one of them should be made to remember Ian Mutton."

Gordon Campbell: On the Sony cyber attack

Given the layers of meta-irony involved, the saga of the Sony cyber attack seemed at the outset more like a snarky European art film than a popcorn entry at the multiplex.

Yet now with (a) President Barack Obama weighing in on the side of artistic freedom and calling for the US to make a ‘proportionate response’quickly followed by (b) North Korea’s entire Internet service going down, and with both these events being followed by (c) Sony deciding to backtrack and release The Interview film that had made it a target for the dastardly North Koreans in the first place, then ay caramba…the whole world will now be watching how this affair pans out.
