• In the middle of a crime crisis, Chippy selects a bottom ranked nobody

    Ginny who?

    This proves that he doesn't really give a shit about crime victims such as dairy owners who feel the police aren't protecting them.

    Meanwhile, Nashy remains a neutered Minister of Sweet Fuck All, pulling in all the financial benefits of cabinet.

    Gotta love Chippy's rational for not firing Nash: he didn't benefit personally from his rule breaking. What the fuck? Neither did Maurice Williamson. Didn't stop Key from sacking him from cabinet. There's just no accountability within Labour. You can be
    a recidivist rule breaker, but still not get fired.

    Some thoughts:

    1) I had never heard of the Depty PM for elected to the position. She had
    been praied for her work.

    2) Ginny has been in the police area for ten years, so some experience.

    3) Having had many failures/resignations in the last 5 plus years, let risk
    a lower level. It is Hipkins choice.
