1st February 2005
In the latest edition:
The dismissal of an MP called Rich is a headline punsters’ dream. In our take on it in the Governor’s Edition this week, we report National MPs were aghast at the start to the parliamentary year while Government MPs were gloating. But the case isn’t closed because recent history shows neither Don Brash nor Helen Clark have been damaged by dismissals.
Also this week we summarise the PM’s speech, bring you the headline numbers from our exclusive rolling poll of polls and a smidgeon of media tattle.
