Labour’s response

It has been one of those rare days – enjoying listening to National Radio.

It is clear that Labour is scared shitless about how to respond to the latest proposals from National. Clark refused to go on radio at all, and her only comment is that it is nothing new. This is of course wrong because there is new policy. Clark just desperately doesn’t want to be on the wrong side of public sentiment like she was after Orewa.

So instead they sent Mallard on, and you could almost hear the tears at National Radio when he agreed with much of what National proposed and said they also had concerns over some of these agencies and have been reviewing them also.
