Thursday, March 5, edition a letter from Don Nightingale asked: "What's driving John Key, for a change of our national flag?"
I'd like to offer the following. First, remember just before the 2008 election he said, quote, "We'll do anything to win the election", unquote. [The accent was his, and as has been shown, he meant it.]
Second. When he got the power he wanted, one of the first things achieved was the restoration of the "knighthood" system. It has become obvious Key wants to become a "Sir".
Third. He has set out to severely damage democracy - who wanted a "super city? Aucklanders were not asked.
Dumped the elected council and water board in Canterbury - replaced with Key sycophants.
