HELLO AND GOODBYE

Which "political advisor" used the phrase Ava atque vale on his correspondence?












Ave atque Vale

Through many countries and over many seas
I have come, Brother, to these melancholy rites,
to show this final honour to the dead,
and speak (to what purpose?) to your silent ashes,
since now fate takes you, even you, from me.
Oh, Brother, ripped away from me so cruelly,
now at least take these last offerings, blessed
by the tradition of our parents, gifts to the dead.
Accept, by custom, what a brother’s tears drown,
and, for eternity, Brother, ‘Hail and Farewell’.

Gaius Valerius Catullus

MEURANT A FINE ONE TO TALK

We think that Meurant has had some sort of religious experience. Today he feels qualified to take a poke at the police over the shooting of a bystander in the wake of the pursuit of of a gunman in Auckland. We hope they poke back. The accidental shooting of innnocent bystander, Halatau Naitoko, is probably the worse thing that could happen to any policeman. The situation is still confused and the inquiry will take some time to complete. Meurant may know a lot about the law but its debatable if he understands the notion of justice and he like the rest of the country should stand aside and let due process take its course.
It seems nothing has changed really. He is still a big noting tosser.

POLICE DECISION NO SURPRISE

But kiwiblog puts it into perspective.

Winston is still a corrupt creep.

WATCHING THE WATCHERS

Well bugger us, we were just cruising around the site and checking
where our visitors are coming from.

And loe and behold we are even coming to the attention of someone in Bletchley Essex the UK. How spooky is that!

WELL THIS IS AN INTERESTING STORY

We here at Roarprawn had as nice lunch down by the sea today and on our way home we were given this story that appeared in May of this year in the Dominion.
and this one here
and this one here

For a start, we didn't quite get the significance - we are blonde - other than being a really intriguing story about someone who was accused of being naughty overseas , who got whisked back here so he didn't get hurt and that MFAT was a bit surprised he got a security clearance again. He ended up back in government service working of all things for Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries.Then the penny dropped - he was there at about the time the Hoki allocation was decided .Wow, we bet he knows lots about lots of people and stuff.

MONDAY QUIZZ

What links Winston Peters, Ross Meurant, Hoki, Scampi, and the KGB?

And by the way does anyone know Ian Clark?


If you have any suggestions email bustedblonde@gmail.com.

WINSTONS LAST DESPERATE FLIGHT OF FANCY AND ITS NOT IN A CHOPPER.

We here at Roarprawn are lost for words... Winston has just issued this media release

Helicopter Used For Travel During Campaign
Rt Hon Winston Peters says New Zealand First has used
helicopters for travel during two election campaigns – but not for campaigning itself.
Mr Peters said that the way a question was framed on Agenda
yesterday implied that he had used a helicopter to campaign from, which of course was ridiculous because of the physical impossibility of speaking to crowds in a noisy gale.
“We used a helicopter to travel and I do not deny that, but to suggest that I somehow stood at the door of a flying helicopter shouting at voters is preposterous. “We were campaigning – not deerstalking.
“This is just another media sideshow to divert voters from the real issues they face,” said Mr Peters.

He's mad.

DID VELA "OWN" MORE THAN ONE MP?

Apparently. According to Stuff this morning Mr Dunne was a recipient of Velas largesse - What is really disturbing is Mr Dunnes selective memory. We remember the events pretty well. It was a very interesting time. We learnt a lot.
And it appears that Winstons memory is as holey as swiss cheese as well. We find it amazing that anyone can forget about flying in an helicopter and as Peter Talleys helicopter is pretty flash it would be pretty hard to forget flying in it. Or Velas chopper which had lovely leather seats in it - BB never forgot flying in Velas helicopter. We know him as a very generous man with a wonderful wine cellar and a lovely wee boat. Oh look! the Herald has a pic of the chopper! Maybe that will help Winston remember.

We also agree with the Greens - there is a need for an inquiry.

And we have been asked to moderate our language here at RoarPrawn by the Old Tassy devil - so we will - but we want to ask one more question - Where they bloody hell is the SFO?????

And we havent forgotten Hoki and a wee few bits and pieces which will no doubt see the light of day this week. We have just been a bit busy gardening and perusing old documents. Trouble is when they fade a bit they are hard to read. And there is just sooo many of them.

Ka Kite Ano BB

PETERS FACES MUTINOUS CREW

Winnies done for - his sycophants have decided enough is enough. The Herald on Sunday is expected to roll out a story this morning on calamity inside NZ First in the wake of the revelations by the Dom Post's Phil Kitchin

HEY YOU TRICKY CREEP , WINSTON - THERE 'S MORE TO COME

The Timeline in the Dom Post is well worth a read and we are pretty sure there is more to come early next week as well. Other journalists are tracking down old contacts to see whast they can find as well. One of the questions we now want answered is what the hell is the SFO going to do about it? Surely now they must investigate.And whats all this we keep hearing about section 103 ??? What does it mean for Winston?
And more to the point this has serious implications for Clark. - The last vestiges of her integrity rest on what she will now do with Winston in light of the latest allegations.

BRAT PO KRVI

We knew that the Dominion Post was to break another story on Winston this week and this morning we get the full run down from NZ's best investigative reporter Phil Kitchin.

We posted on what a creep Winston was for stooping to such venal tactics . And this morning everyone in NZ who reads a paper or hears the TVNZ news will see that the money has been given to a trust associated with Brian Henry..

That is simply appalling - if Brian Henry is to retain any professional integrity he should say he wants nothing to do with any of the taxpayers cash.

We would willingly set up a separate fund for Susan couch for all New Zealanders to willingly donate to , money that she would get directly without her having to rely on Peters tainted cash.
In fact we see someone who commented on last nights post about this issue has already sent a cheque to Susan Couch.

But as we said last night we thing this is a bridge to far for most Kiwis and this most cynical of ploys by Winston will not be condoned by voters.

WINSTON IS LYING ABOUT DAIL

No surprises really. But I don't think there is a single NZ'er who would believe that Winston had nothing to do with the party list.

But boy what a silly move - we here at the roarprawn are now back on the scampi trail.

And the Hoki Trail, and bank accounts in California and people who had name suppression.

Winston was very silly to to that to Dail - too many people liked him, and its seems that its the last straw for some of Winstons closer confidantes..

The emails are coming in - people want to talk .

FINALLY SOMEONE HAS THE BALLS TO INTERVIEW TOMMY GEAR

this should be interesting - whale oil and kiwi blog are going huntin for tommy.
