Lovely Labour Leaders Look at the Law

reporter: Jonathan, 15.9.06

I'm amused at what has been thrown around in the media lately regarding the Labour Party's views on electioneering (i dunno if that's speled rite). To cut a long story short they seem to be looking to do 2 things;

1) Pass retrospective legislation (which is always bad news) which justifies what they did in regard to electioneering.

2) Pass legislation which makes illegal what National did in regard to electioneering.

Basically making what is illegal, legal and what is legal, illegal.

Regardless of who you support and how you feel on this particular matter, it's certainly a sign of a desperate government when they show such disregard for the law by using it simply to satisfy their own desires.
