"Who am I to stand in the way of this?" asks Paula Bennet from behind the wheel of her SUV as it ploughs into a crowd of people. "This doesn't sound right, this raises alarm bells for me," she says as people shriek in pain and terror. "If I were responsible for this I think I'd be looking at individual cases of harm here," she remarks seriously, stepping out of her car amid broken bodies and horrified onlookers.

You're assuming here this disgusting pig-human hybrid vomited forth from the anus of hell can actually fit in a car built for humans.

Have you not seen the new and improved Paula Bennett post bypass surgery? She is now a disgusting human at a more reasonable weight, a vast improvement

Come on guys, busting her for her weight? The entire branch is bowing but you're still going for the lowest hanging fruit?

By all means, her myriad of issues can be reflected in her weight to some extent - but at least try to go for something imaginative.

Fine then:

Paula Bennett is an evil person known for smearing critics by leaking their personal information, and a ghoul of a social welfare minister who presided over perhaps the biggest scam of the last decade which had people kicked out of state housing because of a moral panic over methamphetamine.

Imaginative, son. You're just reciting facts.

She has the general malaise about her that can only be cultivated by the exacerbation of the suffering of sapient life, the delight of their pain, to which her atrophied mind is numb to anything else. She is the rot upon the lettuce in the garden salad of life, she is the creature that if it were worth mentioning, must not be. She is primordial ooze without the scientific value, she is the poison within the soul of man.

To be fair reciting facts about Paula Bennett really does a great job of attacking her.

My first few posts in this thread got me called a racist for suggesting our education system is stacked against Maori and Pasifika kids, while one of my last incited some truly terrible posts filled with impotent and nerdy rage

There really needs to be a way to claw back the cash for doing so from the people who actually caused it in the first place. From the minister at the top all the way to the testers who knew the whole thing was a sham but were making money out of it.

Speaking of housing ministers, Twyford is laying the smack down against those who hate poors.

Another day another loving clusterbomb left by the National government

https://i.stuff.co.nz/auckland/104421678/children-left-in-limbo-by-family-court-system--barrister

Family court is under resourced and National’s response was to cut access to legal aid and scrap counselling sessions for families involved. Kids have been left in limbo for years.

There needs to be a commission of inquiry into the previous National government, because it’s clear they were not fit to govern.

The general public's already pissing themselves over a slight tax hike, something like a general inquiry wouldn't pass popular approval by any yardstick.

Yeah what's the voter base that Labour needs popular approval from on this issue? Nat voters have pretty much shown they're not abandoning the party even when a literal Muppet, whose only line of attack on this government is saying that they're Communists over and over, is leader.

The base that's going to be influenced by the constant media spin that Labour is wasting taxpayer dollars on a witch-hunt that just so happens to gloss over why it was started (Or what it will unearth, for that matter).

Y'know, the idiots? Of which there are a sizable amount?
