Another defamation suit for the PM?
Helen Clark has already lost, or had to pay out, on two defamation cases and may be facing a third. The Sunday Star-Times has confirmed Helen Clark as “the apparent source of alleged defamatory statements run by the newspaper” about former Police Commissioner Peter Doone.
It would seem incredible that a Prime Minister would backstab their Commissioner of Police in such a way. Regardless of what Doone did, he should not be tried by way of leaks to the media.
Rodney is already asking questions. Will be fun once the House resumes, and Helen is back in NZ.
