Gerry Brownlee has made the right call in deciding to back Rally New Zealand. It’s a great event, providing huge exposure for New Zealand internationally and opening up heaps of tourism opportunities. I hope the govt’s backing of the event will help to secure it a place on the international Rally calendar.
It’s a pity the Nats had to be embarrassed into doing something though. They didn’t hesitate to give $300k to the All Whites, who are already getting $10 million to go to South Africa. Maybe they’ve decided the Rally offers Key a good photo-op too…
That is good news
It is good, prob a photo op, but when are people going to realise that Key smirk isn’t a smile? Do people not able to read body language anymore?
Is it only me that could always see this?
A Mother – I’ve anguished over the same issue.
The dead eyes are something else most people don’t seem to see.
Good news, am very pleased for RNZ, a very high profile event in Europe, one which attracts alot of spectators and we already have it.
I like the way some people comment on John Keys smile…but heaven forbid someone comment on anything about Helen Clarks appearence
The comments are about the smile, not his facial features.
And Helen Clarks smile never reached her eyes, the point still stands spud
Address the issue not the physical appearances please. This is the last comment on this that goes unmoderated. Clare
Sorry Clare. Fair call.
It will bring attention to NZ so this is great!
“they didn’t hesitate to give $300k to the All Whites, who are already getting $10 million to go to South Africa.”
Chris, its a pity that you had to make this statement. There are still many that feel that the millions given immediately to a losing yachting syndicate, was done without hesitation too.
Haha so true.
