Scandal!

Big political scandal going on here in NZ, won't bore you with the details, but the Minister of Justice has resigned over emails sent by her to a right-wing blogger to dig the dirt on the manager of the Serious Fraud Office, to discredit him because he was investigating a business friend of hers over a multi-million dollar company going bankrupt. Yes, we have a Minister of Justice who doesn't know right from wrong. 
   No one is shedding tears over her, least of all her boss the Prime Minister, who has also got wind of allegations that this woman will seek to contest his position after the coming election. She is on the far right of Genghis Khan as they say, so hopefully the NZ people have dodged a bullet. She would make Margaret Thatcher look principled and kindly!
   Of course, for the hoi polloi, the little people, it's all very amusing, only confirming our core belief that politicians are the scum of the earth. The Opposition parties are all having a field-day with expressions of shock and self-righteousness, and a merry time is being had by all. Only nine days to the General Election now and it's an open race, lots of wild cards and loose canons, with promises of more revelations to come. Bring it on!
