Arrogance redux

The new government appears to have forgotten all that it said about arrogance with respect to the previous government.

How else can we explain the rush of legislation, under urgency, with no opportunity for public input or expert scrutiny?

The usual hyopcrisy. I expected nothing else from National and they are living down to my low expectations of them.

"Democracy" isn't a word they understand.

The funding of Herceptin is a dubious thing, too. This is Tony Ryall screwing the process in the arse...and never mind the evidence.

We don't even know if that VERY expensive drug even works. Never mind. We'll spend millions on it anyway and disregard expert advice for political reasons.

National.....just what I thought they would be and not a bit more.
