Scary, unspoken agendas

http://puffmediacom.blogspot.com/2011/11/video123.html

Press Release 17.11.11

Dr Peter Cleave, Mana, Rangitikei said today in an internet posting that he was more interested in the unspoken conversation between the Johnnies on the spot, John Key and John Banks.

‘The teapot tape will be interesting,’ said Dr Cleave,’ but what about the shared agendas of these parties? They are agreeing on strange things about race, age and right wing economics and that has to be scary for a lot of people.’ Dr Cleave went back to his campaign theme of ‘lost communities’; ‘The tape itself might be about the pensioner vote according to some sources. The elderly are forgotten in the Rangitikei and sometimes live in very isolated situations. Just like unemployed people and beneficiaries in small towns throughout the electorate they have strong needs in the areas of transport and housing as well as basic living costs. A National-Act coalition will leave these communities forgotten again.’ Dr Cleave also announced his election night gathering for Mana supporters in the Rangitikei at the Gretna Hotel, Taihape.
