<p><a href="http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=10624927" target="_blank">The Scarecrow has dictated a missive</a> that shows as much about his mental state as his addiction to pain killers and alcohol. It is a rambling inhorecent piece of tosh. The Herald must have been short of a few column inches today to publish this rubbish.</p>
<p>The post could be summarised like this:</p>
<ul>
<li>Random Quote, totally irrelevant to rest of document</li>
<li>Conspiracy Theory of control of Auckland</li>
<li>Call Local Government Minister and other Ministers liars</li>
<li>Moan about losing his job</li>
<li>pathetic link back to the first quote.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The case of the Dirty Downloader in Palmerston North <a href="http://keepingstock.blogspot.com/2010/02/prominent-palmerstonian-and-public.html" target="_blank">has had an interesting turn of events</a>, events that make the decision of Judge Grant Fraser simply apalling. Keeping Stocks explains why:</p>
<blockquote><p>We have been made aware of the identity of the Prominent Palmerstonian– from several independant andunrelated sources. We were also made aware of something yesterday which, working in the ECE sector, we found rather chilling. After much internal debate between me, myself and I, we decided that this needed to be put in the public domain, but in a manner which would not breach the Court-ordered suppression.</p>
<p>So we ask this question; did Judge Grant Fraser know that the Prominent Palmerstonian’s business premises share the same street address as a pre-school? We believe that this is a very important question in the context of Judge Fraser’s decision to allow name suppression. This is indeed a case of public interest.</p>
<p>Ponder this; do the parents who send their children to the pre-school involved have a right to know that its neighbour had an unhealthy interest in children? For us, that’s a no-brainer; we can’t think of a clearer case where publication of the defendant’s name IS in the public interest.</p></blockquote>
<p>There are many other questions and allegations about the relationship between the Judge and the defendant swirling around, questions that need to be answered, in the meantime with the information that Keep Stock has posted I think the Crown prosecutor should be in court immediately seeking an urgent appeal to the sentence and suppression in this case.</p>
<p>Bear in mind that the Dirty Downloader came to the attention of the FBI. His activities are not nothing, theya ren’t something to be swept under the carpet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My appearances are getting shorter. Yesterday I was informed that the Crown was trying to add bail onto my charges. This was ultimately doomed to failure because you can’t add bail with custodial provisions onto a summary charge with no custodial sentence. This morning as I enetered court I found that they had had a re-think after a very strongly worde3d discussion with my lawyer.</p>
<p>I plead not guilty to all five charges and was remanded at large for another three weeks when we will have a status hearing.</p>
<p>Lastly I have been informed that another two charges will laid for The North Shore Teacher and the Nelson person of National Significance. Pffft, what happened to the contempt charges, well nothing, if they coulda they woulda is my opinion, but they can’t.</p>
<p>I shall continue on, I am sure another meddling Judge will help the cause at least three more times in the next three weeks.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&amp;objectid=10624790" target="_blank">Alan Bollard is right</a>. Given the existing policies and state of the government sector we have zero chance of making in roads to catch Australia let alone trying to catch them. Unless drastic changes it ain’t going to happen.</p>
<p>New Zealand continues to live beyond its means, and “Karori” Bill English continues to read Treasury reports about the Treasury reports about the Treasury reports he asked for.</p>
<p>And why would we expect anything else. If you we keep on doing the same old things over and over we will keep on getting the same old thing over and over. Then of course are the mental patients residing in Labour. They think that raising the minimum wage is the way to catch Australia, well that is such a good idea then lets raise all the way up to Australia right now. Yeah see its dumb isn’t it. Far better to remove the minimum wage altogether.</p>
<p>We need to be bold not timid, we need to be strong to resist spendthrifts and wastrels and most importantly we need to act. Smiling and Waving ain’t going to get us there.</p>
