    I see Liebors mouth has discovered an American has joined our happy
    country and demands to know how and why.
    Probably pretty much the same as a certain Chinese gentleman who moved
    here thanks to the then Liebor government...
    But as we know it's different when the left do it

    Liebor and it's ever less relevant propaganda bot Wich are desperate to
    score some points from National.

    Hell looking at what this dude has done since he got residency my bet is they're both jealous because he's done more positive things for New
    Zealand than Labour has in the last twenty-five years!

    Pooh

    Look at Farrar's comparison table:

    And just try to comprehend Labour's nuclear grade hypocrisy!

    This one? http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/opinion/88768571/editorial-is-new-zealand-citizenship-for-sale

    ". . .Is New Zealand citizenship for sale? That would be an outrageous
    and cynical undercutting of New Zealand's egalitarian values.

    What qualifies as exceptional circumstances and how often is that
    ministerial right exercised?

    Asking such questions is not to say Thiel is undeserving of New
    Zealand citizenship. He may have qualified under the 1350 day rule or
    he may well be an exceptional humanitarian.

    But we just don't know. The irony is that New Zealand is attractive to billionaires because it is a safe, stable democracy with an enviable
    reputation for being corruption-free and transparent.

    It is time to apply that same transparency to the ways our Government
    rolls out the red carpet for those billionaires. "

    Evidently liebor signed both of them up and 'only just' found out.
    A Galloway in my experience is a lot of bull on the hoof.
    And lee is a sheltered side

    Better ask Labour that question as it looks like they've been more than
    happy to sell it to dodgy buggers.

    See above.

    Asking such questions is not to say Thiel is undeserving of New
    Zealand citizenship. He may have qualified under the 1350 day rule or
    he may well be an exceptional humanitarian.

    What same as Labour does it for criminals and terrorists Rich?

    Remember we have no evidence (as usual when Richie and Liebor are
    desperatly trying to find dirt to smear on National) of anything dodgy
    from National. However in Labour case then even trotted up Crim dot Cons driveway with an empty suitcase prior to last election....
