A very perceptive article
Ruth Berry’s article in today’s Herald is very perceptuve and well informed. It gives a really good over-view of the decisions before National, and where people stand. Specifically she covers
* the different strengths of John Key and Bill English for Leader
* the pros and cons of who should be Deputy to Key
* the core group who have been pushing for Key
* that Key’s votes on social issues more reflect his electorate’s views than his personal ones (this is the case for quite a few National MPs)
