Chris Trotter has a new twist on why the Bradford Bill should go in his DomPost column, Withdraw your failed bill, Sue.
Despite being a supporter of the bill he writes;
Passing this legislation now, over the objections of four fifths of the electorate will not settle the matter. The people will punish the Left and themselves by voting the far Right into power.
And how will that help the children of New Zealand?
He can only mean voting National into power. I struggle to think of anything that would change for New Zealand children under a National government. Seriously, can you?

The timidity shown by National on this matter, its economic track record of recent times, and its incompetence in opposition, do not inspire confidence.
Despite all of that give me anything but Helen Clark!
Muesli bars?
Trotter had another dumb statement:
`those painful childhood memories of sudden and inexplicable violence'!
What crap. When I got a hiding I knew it was coming and why, because I knew I had had overstepped the boundaries. Often the wait was worse than the actual punishment
Hard to say who he means. In the Trotter world anyone who is less socialistic than Mao is the Far Right.
