I think Robertson would be a terrible choice. But there's really no one else to mount a leadership challenge with.

Question the first: what is the Labour Party's reason for existence? Question the second: does it have a person willing and able to lead it to some sort of future in which it continues to have a reason for existence? Right now I think (2) is "no", and (1) is "ummmm I don't know". Edit update: quoth Dimpost, Quote:

Robertson is the worst candidate you could possibly imagine.
A fat, white, gay, childless Wellingtonian who has this for a CV: Otago Student Union United Nations Office of Helen Clark Labour MP ... and who has, for two elections in a row, seen Labour in THIRD PLACE in his home electorate's Party vote. I'm FUCKING INSPIRED. |

whatever do you mean, lifelong politicans who make a living out of sucking at the teat of our country are super popular. look at that cadaver in disguise winston peters.

Labour have already had a gay leader/PM, so why this guy's sexuality is an issue strikes me as fucking strange for the "liberal left".

James Dann, 2014 Labour candidate in Ilam, writes to David Cunliffe.

The party vote determines who the government is. In other words, it's the important bit. If you're a Labour MP and your electorate consistently rejects your party, the question "what are you doing about it?" has to be asked.

Smash all their TVs and computers so they never see anything about Cunliffe...

Cunliffe needs to bow out of the leadership race man, his poor wife is going nuts about it, can't be good.
Dude needs to forget his pride and think about his family. http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/poli...itter-potshots |

The likelihood of hitting a deer inside DC is like 1 in 734, but the chance of hitting one in Virginia is 1 in 88, makes u think.

When David Cunliffe said "I have only just become aware of this Twitter account," what he really should have said was "Aware of it? Hell, I was the first follower!"
This guy wants to be the Prime Minister. Can you imagine that? Every time he gets criticised, his missus would start a twitter account to mouth off.

Well, he is sorry for being a man. He can't exactly turn around and act like he has any influence over his wife's actions at all.

That's weird. It brings up more questions than answers:

Cunliffe's twitter account may well follow hundreds of people, but how did it come to follow Mrs Cunliffe's account? Neither Cunliffe nor his wife can be trusted with Twitter. Can you trust them to run the country?

It's possible that he's got some sort of auto-follow bot running on his account, like "if a user mentions @davidcunliffemp then automatically follow that user".
|
1st October 2014, 16:25 | #70 |
|
There's no auto-follow bot, or if there is, it's been switched off. I did an @ mention and a follow today with no action.

Who cares. It's not unusual to have a team of people look after social media accounts.
