Labour, where the bloody hell are ya?

[Lilith7]

Ummm Lilith7, the reason Labour says nothing on the subject of Neo-Liberalism is because it was their ministers who introduced the crazy scheme to NZ, namely roger douglas, richard prebble and failing us in what could have been his finest moment, david lange.  (lower case deliberate for them all)

May the first two names live in infamy forever, utter scum, david at least had some charm, pity he showed no guts (metaphorically) when it was most required after all the good work he did assisting poor people in Mangare.

But that's exactly the point, Labour, under the influence of BloodyRogerBloodyDouglas, was the party first responsible for inflicting Neoliberalism here. To their never ending shame, they took what was once the party for working people & warped it into what we now have.

And frankly, if its good enough for Jim Bolger who's clearly a Tory through & through,  to somehow eventually, belatedly, summon the guts to speak up & say they were wrong, then surely someone - anyone - from Labour could manage to do likewise.

And preferably, announce their intention to do their best to swiftly remove that evil system when re elected. I think they'd be surprised by the number of votes they might gain.


I veer between thinking that Douglas & his mates ought to be tried for crimes against humanity, & thinking they should all get medals, for showing us & the world, what happens when greed is given free rein...
