If my options are a) sitting in a vehicle stopped in traffic burning petrol that I paid for, or b) sitting in a seat with an idevice connected to the interwebs in my hand while someone else drives, I'll take b thanks Lockwood.

After many years of using the car I gave public transport another try between 2011 and 2012. Took the bus for about 15 months to Auckland central. Let me tell you that public transport is neither cheap nor comfortable.

Questions that come to mind: How much is in the account? With what bank, in what country? How many times has Shearer "forgotten" he has this account? |

So lots of money, in an offshore account, that he's "forgotten" to declare at least four years in a row?
Bye bye leadership. |

Name: David James Shearer
Employment status: untenable So... bets on who will be the 3rd Labour leader since Helen? Robertson? Cuntliffe?

Naturally and as usual just as National starts looking shaky, along comes Labour to save the day.

He had been declaring the account and interest from the account to the IRD, but not declaring it on the MPs’ Register of Pecuniary Interests.
If it was a dishonest omission, then what would be the gain/rational for doing so?

I too am more inclined to believe n00b fuckup more than secret molemen lizard people illuminati plot.
Which just goes to remind the public that the leader of the Labour party is a fuckin n00b. |

I imagine the reason he is holding the money overseas is that he is expecting to win the next election. With that would come a tumbling of the exchange rate and he'd double his money.

Again, it's just that in the nineties anyone in Labour with a hint of leadership potential who wasn't on her payroll got capped by Helen. So Labour is full of the same old deadwood that's been hanging around since the Lange administrations (Mallard, King, etc) but who have no chance of leadership; and on the other hand there are a bunch of (in political terms) clueless newcomers who got where they are because of their fealty to Helen Clark (former Clark staffer Grant Robertson, former Clark staffer Jacinda Ardern, etc).

When all is said and done ultimately the directors of solid energy shoulder the blame, it doesn't matter what politicians asked them to do as company law requires directors to act in the best interests of the company.

He should use some of that money to buy Telecom shares; Clare Curran's "I heard Telecom will sack 1500 people" announcement yesterday has wiped 54 million off the market cap already.

It's not a 50k account; it's an account with so much money in it that he's too embarrassed to indicate even the quantum of the balance.
