Politicans don't seem to learn. Your spending/perks/accommodation loopholes etc etc are perfectly legal but you need to take into consideration how the public will view it. Especially on a dry news spell where it's gonna be dramatised to whip up page views.

One article I saw last night indicated that the file format had been changed from the one issued to the Nats. Winston has already shown himself to be resourceful when he was questioned about the changing number of pages in the coalition document - someone worked out how to change the font...

I reckon Bridges leaked it himself, ahead of the wider public release of spending, for some reason that has yet to reveal itself.

Yeah, I was thinking something along those lines.

Are you sure this shouldn't be in the Parliamentary Services Thus Far thread? J/K
I'm sure it will take long enough to get through the investigation that any relevant devices will be stolen or lost or taken on a fishing trip. |

Probrably some pleb (either National or PS) who went to send it to someone and chose the wrong email address.

Bridges NZ tour was just away to raise his profile without having to spend campaign funds. Which didn't work.

From an agenda setting / news-worthiness perspective the leak is certainly one way to bring his tour into the national media. It would certainly be a gamble in terms of framing but the potential benefits could outweigh the negatives. Probably hard to measure (if not impossible), but it may provide a good foundation for reestablishing Nationals presence in the regions.

I guess we'll see what happens at the next opinion polls if his tour actually made a difference or not.

And how quickly the narrative changes.
Getting my tinfoil hat out National found out that it was from within their own party and knew how that was going to look, so they managed to get them to use the mental illness line (which could still be true in that person's life) to take some of the heat off. Tinfoil hat2 I can only imagine if the person was on the left, they would have been lunatic lefty. |
24th August 2018, 16:56 | #5230 |

But the next thing is how up the rank was the person.
Which member were they working for (if it wasn't a member that leaked it). |

Judith Collins is toxic.
For one, National's tough on crime approach still requires this person be victimised so that the abuser can be convicted and punished. And it's National's dismantling of NZ's community health services that perpetuate this kind of disturbed behaviour.

It is, and it's a great time to be running a gang or cult. Lots of desperate people looking for a place to belong and few decent places looking to take those people in. The message is clear: you get what you want by being powerful.

How long till Bridges is gone? Most of Labours recent leadership changes have been in the last 4 months of the year, so will he last until Christmas?
|
3rd October 2018, 11:16 | #5235 |
|
At this stage I think starting fresh with someone with some media skills would be a good move. I still think Collins would scare away the middle ground.

It's something "embarrassing". Oops, maybe that's not the right word.
