A different pick for Politican of the Year
Colin James picks his politician for 2005, and he picks Mike Williams!!
With all respect to Colin, but his budget stuff-up alone should disqualify him. Labour may have won by 8% or more if he hadn’t helped over-hype the budget. And his great strategic victory was lets scare all the state house tenants into voting, by telling lies about National.
And let’s not forget his predictions of huge victories in Napier and Tukituki etc.
