Scoop's Selwyn
Manning & Radio Adelaide's Peter Godfrey discuss how the New
Zealand Parliament is grinding to a halt and politicians are
heading off on the campaign trail. The Privileges Committee
ruled against Winston Peters, but Peters is preparing to use
his self-proclaimed victim-status to attract votes. Labour
is right there supporting him where it can. Valedictory
speeches were heard last night with Bob (The Builder)
Clarkson saying simply "Goodbye." And Katherine Rich was
pretty cool when citing her preference for Sid Vicious'
version of My Way….
ALSO, Auckland District Health Board
is hunting hundreds of people who may have been exposed to a
rare and dangerous strain of TB.
