Hagers Book
From what I've seen on the Herald Website, Hagers book is a load of sh*t.
So far we've learnt that Michael Bassett, Roger Kerr and others volunteered to help Don Brash. Imagine that, people volunteering their time in politics!
And that businessmen liked Don Brash and his policy agenda so gave money to the National Party to help pay for National's election campaign. Imagine that, people giving donations to political parties!
If these are crimes, then I'm guilty of them. I've both done voluntary work for political parties and given money to political parties. Should I go down to the police station and confess?
That members of a church discussed an anti-Government campaign with National, and that they kept National informed of progress. So Hager can only claim that National knew, but didn't help. I write this blog, which is generally anti-Labour and encourages people to vote for National - Hager's just written a anti-National and anti-Brash book!
What's interesting is what's not in the book. Despite proving beyond doubt that Brash recieved help from donors and volunteers - there is no corruption, no using taxpayers funds to fund election material, no dodgy business practices (like buying houses from desperate constituents, or taking bribes, or getting cheap tiling for helpign a constituent) and no suggestion that Don Brash or the National Party broke any law.
If that's the best you can do, Hager should hack Labour's emails. I, for one, would like to see what Helen Clark really thinks of Field; how she schemed to get out of jail on the art forgery, speedgate and pledge card scandals; what exactly Parekura Horomia and Judith Tizard actually do; etc, etc.
