Politically she is the polar opposite. From the freedom of the outdoors she completely swings atacking freedom of speech.<BR/>when the labour party tried to promote hate laws they were vehemently opposed and used the excuse of 'just testing the waters.' If they get back in, the hate laws will be promptly prioritised in agenda as socialism penetrates free speech.<BR/><BR/>'Nations aren't ruled by common sense but agendas.'rikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09359997744336670961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-73694351865807681.post-90043379767448910242007-08-30T13:40:00.000+12:002007-08-30T13:40:00.000+12:00I don't think the comparison really stands up in t...I don't think the comparison really stands up in terms of style - Muldoon was an in-your-face, confrontational as opposed to Clark's patronising "we know what you want"... <BR/><BR/>I think that Muldoon genuinely wanted to make NZ a better place and believed in what he was doing. He actually had a record of freeing up the economy up until the 2nd oil shock in the late 70s. From then on he took to trying to protect NZ from the outside world with tariffs, subsidies, regulation. Imagine turning on TV to be told by the PM that from midnight a freeze was being placed on all pay increases and price rises... well, it happened!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
