Teh INTERNET PARTY!!!1

[Ab]

Go on, be honest: who's joining up just for a laugh?

[pxpx]

I thought about it, but I just cant stand KDCs face (seriously it's on the back of almost every bus in Auckland) anymore.

[CCS]

Nope. I'm sure there's lots of 18 year olds that will be signing up for a laugh, with no intention of turning up to the polling booth. But I'd rather not have my name end up on a list associated with that party.

Maybe the party he merges with should be the ALCP instead of Mana

McGillicuddy Serious Party 4LYF

[chiQ]

Don't encourage him. He's an attention whore.

[crocos]

A 2-issue party with no real coverage of anything other than those two issues. Yeeeah, nah.

[CCS]

They have two issues?

I think they've got one policy: try to keep Kimler from being booted out of the country.

[Golden Teapot]

I'll still vote for him if he runs fiber past my house.

Bah - politicians. He'll promise that, but no way he'll be able to deliver.

[ZoSo]

If they collapse the Labour vote, let's keep them around.

[Golden Teapot]

I'd rather have these guys than the greens.

Hone Harawira is a bludger, always has been. He just thinks he's found a new host.

It's awwwwwn like Dawnkey Kawwwwwwwng

Kim Dotcom's influence is set to be felt right at the heart of the corridors of power with his Internet Party looking like riding into Parliament on Hone Harawira's coat tails.

Mr Dotcom's party has secured top billing in the newly formed Internet-Mana Party alliance.

Mana's leader says the name was still being discussed right up until this morning.

"My own personal choice was Mana Dotcom, but clearly this isn't about Dotcom," " Mr Harawira says.

But Mana has made an even bigger concession, giving up the number two spot on their combined list to the Internet Party's leader, who will be named on Thursday.

"We were expecting to get the first two, possibly three. But we're comfortable enough that the Internet Party has chosen a person of calibre," Mr Harawira says.

ONE News deputy political editor Michael Parkin says taking the number two spot dramatically increases the chances of the Internet Party getting someone into Parliament if Mr Harawira retains his Te Tai Tokerau seat, as the Internet Party is unlikely to get the five percent of the vote needed under MMP to make it alone.

There's no amount of facepalm that can do this statement justice.

[fixed_truth]

Haha. Thanks National for not tweaking the system!

[Spoon1]

Noone knows how to look after ethnic minorities like a Nazi-loving German...

Such a great fit.

[Ab]

We need a grassroots party like Mana in parliament to fight the neoliberals like ACT who only exist because of the dodgy donations from shady millionaire backers!

whats this 'we' you talk about aussie?

[Ab]

shaddupayouface.

Anyway,

Ladies and gentlemen I give you the tech visionary ready to take NZ into the future as leader of the Internana Party: Laila Harré!

LOL, spotted at Kiwiblog - from the Internana marriage agreement,

To publicly and formally commit in writing that all candidates from both component parties, if elected to Parliament, will not support the formation or ongoing operation of any government that includes the National Party.

[Pimp-X]

It seems to be, chaps, that a previously unimagined seam of gold has been discovered!

[Ab]

A motherlode more like. This is just epic lolarity all round.

Yes, a hard-left union activist from the 1980s who currently works for the Greens is the perfect person to attract centrist voters away from National. This move won't dilute the party vote on the left at all.

So what's she like on the twatter? What does she feel about capping?

Hey man, they're going after the missing million, duh.

The GOT Posts on whale oil are pretty interesting. If Dotcom has been banging someone else (which is likely seeing as the couple are split), will Mona play the bitter ex-wife, drop Dotcom into the FBI so long as they promise to let her keep her share of the assets?

[Ab]

Didn't Schmitz transfer all the assets into his wife's name as an asset-protection dodge a couple of years ago? Or am I thinking of some other Internet scammer?

[CCS]

I know that put his Mega shares in his wifes name when he formed Int Party. Don't know about all his other shit.

[The Edge]

Ah well, at least Sue Bradford's gone.

Yo crazy-shoes, whatup?

[CCS]

I done a fart just now.

[Ab]

The new Internet Party leader admitted today she actually knows almost nothing about Internet issues such as net neutrality, the HDC Bill, filtering, software patents, copyright, cybersafety, digital divide, rural broadband, ultrafast broadband, telco competition issues, the proposed copper tax, ISP liability and the like.

Here’s what she talked about in her press conference as *Internet* Party leader:

Asset sales
Employment laws
Sky City
Women’s rights
Paid parental leave
National Standards
Free tertiary education
Welfare state
Spy powers
Banning nuclear weapons
Springbok Tour

Does that look like an Internet Party to you? It’s an insult to those of us who have spent 20 years actually fighting for Internet issues.
