One of the many things I love about NZ. The pm washes his son’s car.

  It is one of the refreshing things living in a small country. The politicians cannot disconnect from society like they can do in, say, USA with their “beltway” elite.
  
  A few years ago I was helping at a community working bee planting native plants and Amy Adams was there getting muddy with the rest of us. No deference, no fanfare just getting stuck in alongside everyone else taking orders from the organizers. She has a ridiculously high majority so she didn’t need to do it for the votes.
  
  Didn’t see any greens there…

    No I am afraid if it isn’t a protest they will not be seen anywhere near the vicinity. Actually doing something heaven forbid.

    She should stick to planting trees. She is the worse Minister of Justice in NZ history. The payout to Bain is a total disgrace. It was not for political reasons not justice.

      No Amy Adams is doing a great job.
      Bain and his lick spittle’s disappeared of the radar within days of the No compensation.
      Hopefully never to be heard of again.

Hey DPF the report button is too close to the reply one. I reported by mistake.

  No problems. Unless the number of reports is 5 or more, nothing happens to the comment. So the odd accidental report is fine.

Fecking John Key washing his cars instead of running the country like we pay him to.

Also he could easily be paying a living wage to someone else to clean the cars.

He is the worst.

  Exactly! And how cynical is it to have children just so they can promote you as a man of the people to increase your electability!

  You think we pay the PM to work on Sunday mornings instead of doing stuff around his home?

    Not like you to be taken in by sarcasm, DPF?
    
    And when’s a thread coming on Trump’s great immigration flip-flop? You can’t resist that surely?

    I think you’ve missed the obvious sarcasm.

After the weekends breathless interview with Jacinda, Im willing to bet that Angry Andy is sitting playing with the cat this morning wondering if he can get the press around to watch him sweep the leaves up.

  I wonder if Andy got the Herald’s memo that Jacinda is a future Prime Minister and not him…

And this is why the guy is so popular, why National is still popular, and why they’ll probably win the 2017 election – and perhaps even 2020???

I’ve been disappointed with Key in some respects. I think he had the political capital and skills to set the country up better for the future than the steady-as-she-goes incrementalism of English.

But I can’t deny the man’s mad political skilz, and the way it melds with his personality. Face it Lefties – the guy is not the evil fake you think he is. You’d crawl across broken glass to have someone like him.

P.S. Shouldn’t it be Max washing Dad’s car before going out?

  Perhaps he had already done all the other chores and this was his reward. or maybe he decided he didn’t need his pocket money this week.

Agree tom. Failure to tackle Super is a big disappointment to me.

It’s a telling sign that DPF can put out meat this juicy and red and get only one bite.

Perhaps the hate has finally stopped?

Out of all the pointless crap I view on the internet, that was certainly the most recent…
