For the public record – remember how I correctly predicted that Winston Peters would ‘nail it’

For what it is worth Mr McCready has to clamber over section 26 of the Criminal Procedure Act to make any headway with this prosecution.
It will be interesting to see if he can.

I look forward to the decision of the Court of Appeal as well Penny, and I am willing to wager it will go in favour of John Banks, who will be exonerated, and completely cleared of the trumped up charges against him laid by your serial bankrupt, convicted blackmailing and tax cheating friend.

Hey Keeping Stock-

How did Kim Dotcom know to split the donation into two $25000 amounts?
==========================

ESP Reddy, didn’t you know?

Stop asking awkward questions. you realize that Banks is a Saint in the Nats. eyes don’t you?

He took the mans money and rorted the system doing so.

Got caught with his hand in the cookie jar but like all Born Agains just doesn’t consider he can do no wrong.

Watch the red ink now.

Viking2, how could banks have rorted the system when the total amount was still declared. Its not like he was avoiding paying taxes or anything. The only possible benefit would have been avoiding Krimdotcons name appearing as a donator (which is understandable!).
If anything, it is more likely split to benefit the criminal kraut! Unless of course, John Banks had ESP and knew how bad the convicted fraudster was… and in that case, why on earth was the crown using a criminal as a reliable witness?

I’m sorry, the case does not add up to any rational person.

This could get interesting Ben Rachinger posting a series of blogs – about his relationship with Cam Slater….

https://medium.com/@benrachinger/

3 posts so far

Though I note Ben is factual incorrect in one of his positioning statements in post 1:

“There was warfare between the British Army and Maori when the Maori rose against the landgrabs and cultural genocide that was taking place. We lost. It culiminated in the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi”

Warfare pre 1840 in what was known as the Musket Wars, was overwhelming Maori on Maori from what I have read on the topic… the British Army became heavily involve post Treaty signing …. happy to be corrected by the more historically more learned of course….

I see you answered Penny’s question but avoided mine.

What meaning should we draw from that??

I don’t know why you stand with this guy. I supported him for years myself, and then I realised he was just a barking seal. None the least when he stood for Auckland Mayor and at the direction of idiots like Bhatnagger etc adopted a completely socialist/ progressive platform.

Then after years of preaching he was a Conservative, he joins fucking ACT and then HE VOTES FOR SAME SEX MARRIAGE..!!!

You support the guy still after this kind of betrayal?

Look, I don’t like to see anyone persecuted by the courts for their political beliefs but I’m not going to go out on a limb for someone who turned out to be the political disappointment Banks did.

Seriously, you think that the only way the amount of $25,00.00 comes up would be during ‘instructions’ on how to circumvent the ‘rules’?

I can see it coming up in general donation conversation regarding thresholds.

Apropos McCreadie, AW (I think) referred to the hurdle of S26 of the Criminal Procedure Act 2011….

“ Private prosecutions

(1) If a person who is proposing to commence a private prosecution seeks to file a charging document, the Registrar may—

(a) accept the charging document for filing; or

(b) refer the matter to a District Court Judge for a direction that the person proposing to commence the proceeding file formal statements, and the exhibits referred to in those statements, that form the evidence that the person proposes to call at trial or such part of that evidence that the person considers is sufficient to justify a trial.

(2) The Registrar must refer formal statements and exhibits that are filed in accordance with subsection (1)(b) to a District Court Judge, who must determine whether the charging document should be accepted for filing.

(3) A Judge may issue a direction that a charging document must not be accepted for filing if he or she considers that—

(a) the evidence provided by the proposed private prosecutor in accordance with subsection (1)(b) is insufficient to justify a trial; or

(b) the proposed prosecution is otherwise an abuse of process.

(4) If the Judge determines under subsection (2) that the charging document should not be accepted for filing, the Registrar must—

(a) notify the proposed private prosecutor that the charging document will not be accepted for filing; and

(b) retain a copy of the proposed charging document.

(5) Nothing in this section limits the power of a Registrar to refuse to accept a charging document for want of form.”

@ Redbaiter – don’t take it personally 😀

I’ve never been a particular fan of John Banks, and he made a fool of himself over his denials of knowing Dotcom when it was plain that he did. Re-entering Parliament as an Act MP was probably a fairly typical Banksie stunt.

As far as the Dotcom donation goes, we only have Dotcom’s word that Banks asked for two separate cheques. Given the way that Dotcom’s evidence has been discredited by way of the affidavits from the two Americans located by Mrs Banks, and given that neither Mrs Dotcom nor Wayne Tempero will back Dotcom up on the allegation that there was a second meeting, the Crown is grasping at straws.

I believe that any accused is entitled to the presumption of innocence, and that it is up to the Crown to prove Banks guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Crown Law has acted in exceedingly poor faith towards Banks by withholding evidence. Banks may be guilty, but “may be” is not enough. Having decided to take over McCready’s private prosecution, the Crown is now obliged to prove him guilty, or the case against him should be dismissed. Personally, I do not see it going to trial, and if flipper’s “insider” comments today are accurate, the Court of Appeal bench was unimpressed by the antics and the arguments of the Crown.

I’ve been thinking about the Bali nine executions and the media beat up across all sectors of the Controlled Western MSM. As far as I can tell not much of the public gives a flying fuck but evidently the media expect that we weally weally should and so do the politicians. In other words they’re all making it up, in unison, just like a reality TV show. Question is: why?

I’ve been wondering if it has something to do with the fact Indonesia is the largest SE Asian Muslim nation. Funny how the Western CMSM doesn’t get all exercised about the execution barbarity committed weekly by the Saudi’s isn’t it. Of course they ARE a US ally. Aren’t they.

For those observant few who know how these things work, this is yet another demonstration that the entire Western CMSM is indeed, orchestrated and controlled, just look at how they’ve tried to play the sheeple on this one. And no doubt many sheep have ratcheted up their hatred of all things Islam, as a direct result. Mission accomplished, for the evil ones.

Indonesia has a number of times protested the execution if its nationals by Saudi Arabia. Obviously not because it opposes the death penalty, but to act on behalf of its nationals.

My opinion, regarding the events in Indonesia is to just get on with it, such a long drawn out process, so many family visits etc, so emotionally draining, too many appeals, too much media attention, why did we need to see the crosses being painted, what is the significance of crosses to Muslims? Very sensitive if that was a symbol for Christians. Why did we need to see the coffins, the description, the time, the everything. I bet the media felt robbed not being able to view the bodies, how ghoulish do we need to be?

Exactly Reid,

Next to no coverage of the thousands of Chinese executed in their one party state every year either in the Controlled Major Mass Media (CMMM) but because it’s Indonesia, it’s wall to wall, day after day of faux outrage. If there was, I’d imagine the pollies would have a much harder time selling our country off lock stock and barallel to the brutal Communist regime and their agents.

The same thing which has happened in America has happened over here where people (well most people) just believe everything they’re told (except the case for AGW), because they’re so busy and distracted by the matrix that has been pulled down all around them. And the more, people move rural to urban areas, the more they get disengaged with what is real and what is not.

“It is this frantic pace of American life and endless addiction to sports, TV, entertainment which keeps folks almost constantly distracted from the sinister political realities that are infecting American society as engineered by the elite”

Although I slam and mock the CMMM, occasionally gems like the below will slip in and you realise that not all of the presstitutes have sold their soul to the devil (although Breitbart London is run by James Delingpole who I’ve always thought a good egg and on the side of the people so perhaps they’re not CMMM)

http://www.breitbart.com/london/2015/04/29/tony-blair-an-instructive-reminder-of-how-britain-came-to-its-present-debacle/

“It is that consideration that most undermines one’s confidence in the proverbial common sense of the British public. On the day after Blair’s third election victory most people of sense found themselves critically reappraising the 1832 Reform Act and every successive measure that extended the franchise. The question was not so much whether people who voted three times for the Great Charlatan deserved to exercise the franchise, but whether it was a responsible policy to allow such demented souls to walk the streets.

The day on which Tony Blair resigned the premiership was one of bleak melancholia for all of us who had devoutly hoped that the Blairs would exit from public life in identical fashion to the Ceausescus. To see one of the chief architects of the Iraq War, the first of several conflicts that eliminated Middle Eastern dictators in the name of democracy (dear God!) and let the jihadist genie out of the bottle, reinvent himself as “Middle East Peace Envoy” was a surreal experience that signalled the lunatics had taken over the asylum, not just in Britain but globally”

It’s all the same.

Humans don’t change.

They don’t have to behave as Goering described, but they generally do. (i.e. Nothing forces them to)

And looking at people today, they do behave precisely as Goering described.

Clear as day.

And if you can’t see people dancing to the CMMM tune in this most-obvious-of-all age, you’re fucking blind as a bat mate, you really are.

Observing society is not the same as looking at groups of individuals. It takes training your mind to look at people as social engineers look at them.

The Hooerald web site describes serial litigant Graham McCready as an accountant. The description is in a caption with a report about McReady’s actions against the Prime Minister.

My question: is McCready still entitled to be called an accountant, even a retired accountant? Was he struck off the register of chartered accountants before he retired? The question arises from this media release from the Inland Revenue Department on 27 February 2009:

A Wellington accountant and tax agent has been sentenced to six months home detention on tax fraud charges involving $183,155.

Graham Edward McCready was sentenced today in the Wellington District Court by Judge Behrens after earlier admitting 12 charges of providing false GST and income tax returns.

Inland Revenue Acting Group Manager, Assurance, Graham Tubb, said McCready abused his position and betrayed the trust of his clients.

“McCready deliberately set out to try to cheat the system for his own personal gain. Both Inland Revenue and the courts both take a very dim view of this sort of action.”

“Our tax system relies on the honesty of the many professionals working in it, and both Inland Revenue and the public expect them to help uphold its integrity,” said Mr Tubb.

McCready created business activities, and manufactured or overstated expenses for a number of his clients, in order to generate artificial income tax and GST refunds.

The clients had relied on McCready’s advice and believed him when he told them they were entitled to the refunds. However, they often had no knowledge of which returns were being filed on their behalf or their contents, when the filing took place, or what refunds had been paid out by Inland Revenue.

In almost all cases, the bank account details McCready provided to Inland Revenue were his own, and when refunds were paid into the account he rarely passed them on to the individuals involved.

Instead, he used money from the refunds to pay his own personal bills.

Income tax refunds claimed, and other tax evaded by McCready through other taxpayers, amounted to $92,320. GST refunds totalled $90,835.

The only certain thing Jack is that the media’s portrayal of McCready is definitely not driven by anything except the desire to get the facts out plain and simple, because the media never ever ever engages in manipulation of public opinion of any kind, because that would have to involve hundreds if not thousands of people, and at least one of them would definitely have talked, therefore it doesn’t ever happen and it certainly hasn’t happened in this case.

/sarc

Good spotting Jack.

Funny how the KB sheeple crowd approve of manipulation in one case and even deny it’s even happening (like say, oh, Ukraine) but they see straight through it when it happens elsewhere. How does that work?

Funny how the KB sheeple crowd approve of manipulation in one case and even deny it’s even happening (like say, oh, Ukraine) but they see straight through it when it happens elsewhere. How does that work?

Since I turned the tv off when it went digital a few years ago, I have been amazed at how utterly absurd the MSM looks when I do see it at family or friends homes.

It is crap, modern journalism is just info-tainment, you WILL get dumber watching that toxic crap.

Progressive stephieboy’s compassion for drug traffickers is foolish and misguided.
