Mind you, how is she going to pay her defence legal team? I wonder if............no, she would'nt would she?

The increasingly absurd allegations from Helen Clark demonstrates just how frightened she is. I wonder if she'll eventually melt down like McCarthy in '54. Whoops, that should read “gross misappropriation of funds for election purposes.”

Does she honestly think these delusional allegations are going to convince anyone? And even if National is funding the Libz - which is incredibly unlikely - then so what? Freedom of association is legal in this country; there is nothing wrong with supporting a worthy cause. Of course, there are some things that are *not* legal - gross misappropriation of election funds, for instance. Helen is right to be worried, because she knows the court case cannot possibly go in her favour. It might be time to say, "Helen, we'll stop telling the truth about you just as soon as you stop telling lies about us." My god, Helen really is up against the wall.

Hers was stolen from the public purse." Nail them on that point and get every other politician and media outfit quoting it verbatim! That will eliminate the distracting argument and turn the onus back on the Prime Minister! “Our money has been given freely. Hers was stolen from the public purse.”
