[…] It was definitely a group effort. Libz Bernard, Craig, Phil, Richard and Colin all turned up (and bought bananas!), as well as a surprising number of other people, including Jordan King and Mike Heine (both ACT people). Julian, Peter and DPF helped out on the information superhighway, among others. So our super-short-notice protest got donations, laughter, agreement, and heaps of thank-you’s. We got a lot of mentions on the blogosphere, and a Herald item which was featured on the front page of their site. Altogether we handed out more than 300 flyers and 52 kgs of bananas, we brightened the day for a lot of people, and we got the Libz message out there. Every one of those people now has a story to tell of how they got a free banana on Banana Republic Day. […]

The fact is that New Zealand (Oops, sorry, the Democratic Socialist People’s Republic of Aeotoera) has been reduced to nothing but an autocratic, dictatorial, socialist police state. Heil Helen, full of grace and spite.
