Why are we not surprised?

The Labour Party or members thereof break the law and nothing will happen. Again. Labour transgresses its own odious Electoral Finance Act and it will not be prosecuted. Well there's a surprise. The party is let off with a caution as the breach is 'inconsequential' but anyone else (read members of any political party that is not Labour) who does the same will be hauled up before the beak. Apparently the brochure in question cost $100,000. Could I please be given an inconsequential sum of money without delay. In fact give me four lots and I will buy a DB9 with it and have change for lots of luverly petrol 'cos a 6 litre V12 uses an awful lot - especially how I intend driving it.

The Dental Nurse then has the effrontery to stand up and say her favorite judicial tool, commonsense, is playing the role it should. This after she failed to front up in the Beehive to get an entirely justifiable roasting over the matter from the opposition. She let History Boy get too close to the fire and for once his smarmy, arrogant, I know best, creepy, vomit inducing personage had no smartarse answer in the face of cold hard fact.

This mob is totally beyond the pale. Count the breaches of the law that have gone unpunished or even failed to get to court. Speeding motorcades, Benson Dope and the tennis balls, Bovver Boy lumping Henare, SWMBO and Paintergate are cases that readily spring to mind. We have oodles of weasel words like prima facie case but no prosecution and not in the public interest but we never get the truth - 'I'm part of the Labour Government and I can do what I bloody well like.

Meanwhile Shane Adern drives a tractor up parliament's steps and it is in the public interest and the logical application of commonsense to prosecute him.

If you want to be a naughty boy (or girl) join the Labour Party and you get the ultimate 'Get of Jail Free' card. In fact you get something even better, you get a 'Never even look like going to Court' card.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - they have to go.
