Jim Bolger is increasingly looking like a toady of the Labour Party. After destroying them in NZ’s biggest landslide he then set about after being dumped by Jenny Shipley in cosying up to Labour. He has sucked off the Labour tit as a board representative of NZ Post and Kiwibank.
I am increasingly sceptical of where his loyalties lie.
He is now being touted as the Chairman for Michael Cullen’s Trainset. As a former National party leader I would have thought he would have known better than to suck up to Cullen for this cushy little number.
It is thought that because the crusty old bastard is an old party leader that criticism would be blunted. I think that thinking is flawed. National should attack and attack hard, kicking Bolger at the same time as Labour. The man has clearly lost his integrity.

As much at home writing editorials as being the subject of them, Cam has won awards, including the Canon Media Award for his work on the Len Brown/Bevan Chuang story. When he’s not creating the news, he tends to be in it, with protagonists using the courts, media and social media to deliver financial as well as death threats.
They say that news is something that someone, somewhere, wants kept quiet. Cam Slater doesn’t do quiet and, as a result, he is a polarising, controversial but highly effective journalist who takes no prisoners.
He is fearless in his pursuit of a story.
Love him or loathe him, you can’t ignore him.
