I’ve heard Nick is a nice guy who does the right thing by his constituents.

Haven’t seen Hulun treading pavement in Mt Albert for the last 9 years.

If you hang around the family court long even both of you might find a wronged woman, D4J and cowpat

Oh my god. I’m gobsmacked.

1) Don’t diss D4J about a family matter – thats out of line.
2) What is a wronged woman? That sounds a bit simple.
3) Cowpat, nice one, thats cleva.

Imagine how little, by the hour, ghost, phil u and the rest of the drop kicks from ‘the standard’ and liarbores flunky nursery get paid when you look at the long (low value) hours they put in. You reckon they make legal min. wage?

“Surprisingly a lot like league at times”

we’re equally surprised how many like Labour at times – (but only 26% now)

Poor ghost, if Nick was marrying Larry it would be all go. All the Limbo grew would be gushing on this forum and dear Nick would be talked up as a shinning light and a role model.

What the deal with the ex Labour MP who allegedly lost $80,000 plus in Bridgecorp asking Labour cabinet ministers to intervene in propping up Bridgecorp investors and other finance company sector losers? Anyone hear about that?

Yes S/SBob, I did wonder when I saw the post. I thought, christ, not another “look how socially accepted we are” news story from the Yay for everything MSM. People get married, joined, attached, everyday. The only time it’s big news outside of the immediate familiy is when a political agenda is attached. Or if you edit a women’s magazine.

expat asks:

2) What is a wronged woman? That sounds a bit simple.

We all need help parsing ghostwhowalks’ statements from time to time. Perhaps I can help. We want simplicity, we turn to country music. And according to Terri Clark’s “Better Than You”:

I’ve been wronged by the best
I’ve had hopes that were shattered in two
I’ve heard promises spoken
I’ve had dreams left so broken
There was no chance they’d ever come true

So, with that information, we can now interpret gww3’s claim:

If you hang around the family court long even both of you might find a wronged woman, D4J and cowpat

as meaning that if were to visit the Family Court we’d be likely to encounter a female Labour voter, d4j, and himself.

Happy to help 😀

Ah! Much clearer!

Although you could, taking the first person of Hulun in this election campaign, replace female labour voter with female labour PM.

How do you feel about them apples D4J? Are you afraid? 😉

“How do you feel about them apples D4J? Are you afraid?”

What does the word afraid mean expat? As a fathers rights activist you must be thick skinned and erase fear from all memory banks, however I never eat apples from the Liarbour orchard, because it’s well known amongst our fraternity that a bite from the poisonous red feminazi variety can be fatal.

Like myself, Nick Smith was done over by a politicized family court and I wish him well as a role model to several children and a loving partner.

Ahh think about it. GWW is unable to come up with any actual substance to his/her arguement, so he resorts to personal abuse.
I feel sorry for him/her. I know GWW is a male, but he bitches like a little girl. Hence the confusion.

Nick Smith has been a great MP for my home electorate. People like him and he does his job well.
