• Winston

    From JohnO@3:770/3 to All on Monday, August 28, 2017 15:17:56
    "I did not receive a donation from Owen Glenn"

    "The Chinese are buying Huka Lodge"

    "The Chinese are buying Lochinvar Station"

    Why would anyone believe a word this drunken midget says?

    And now...

    "I did not claim more pension than I was entitled"

    Which has changed to...

    "Someone altered the form"

    You couldn't make this shit up, but apparently Winston could!

    He's been caught out.
    The form mentioned is very simple.
    And the drunken dwarf is supposedly a lawyer who is supposed to read
    documents for the 'escape clauses' before his clients sign them

    He is probably about average in height - should we believe anything
    you say?

    "Probably"? So you don't know then. I've met him. He's tiny.

    Do you have a cite for that? I have heard him say that a mistake was
    made which has now been corrected - nothing about whether it was his
    mistake or that of the department.

    Of course I've got a cite for that you dick.

    Once again, Dickbot is too stupid/lazy/incompetent to use Google.

    Note that Eagleson carefully said that he "did not tell English or

    the office.

    So who is your pick for leaking it? - Steven Joyce?, Paula Bennett?,

    Cameron Slater believes the shit is beng thrown by National . . .what

    So now you're a WhaleOil follower? What a tool.

    Whaleoil says whatever his payers tell him to say. He does this for a living. Go back a couple of years and his posts about Winston are generally of the theme "Winston tells lies".

    Since the application form is kept by the department, Peters would
    have had no opportunity to alter the form - do you have any evidence
    that he had such an opportunity?

    God you're thick. There's no suggestion Winston altered it. Winston suggests someone else altered it. However if nobody altered it then Winston may
    have filled out the form stating he was not living with a partner.

    The government have denied that they leaked it. So far there's no evidence that they did - only supposition. Cui bono? Labour for one, not National.
    Labour appear to have found out at the same time as it became public -

    Ah yes, whenever Dickbot says "it seems" or "appear" you know he's just making shit up.

    but it was right around the National party - did you read the links.

    Yes, and there is only supposition and no evidence. As I said.
    More than supposition - National admitted it went to those people.

    Note that Eagleson carefully said that he "did not tell English or
    others in the office"- leaving out whether he told others _outside_
    the office.

    So who is your pick for leaking it? - Steven Joyce?, Paula Bennett?,
    Anne Tolley?, Wayne Eagleson?, Judith Collins?

    There is no evidence against any of them except we have been told that
    they had the information . . .

    As has every other MSD employee who was there when Winston was called in to
    explain himself. There are probably dozens of people who knew what was going on.
    You are getting as desperate as National . . .

    Can't argue on facts eh Dickbot? You said the evidence was the Nats had the information. So did a whole lot of others. Too hard for you to follow, Dumbo? It is a fact that the public servants you were accusing had no
    incentive to release the information. Indeed they sought advice on
    whether it should be given to Ministers under the "No surprises" rules
    - which is now giving rise to discussion on how that is being abused
    by National as they seek to politicise our public servants.





    As per usual, Dickbot has nothing but just throws excrement like the chimpanzee he is.
    Cameron Slater believes the shit is beng thrown by National . . .what
    does he know that you don't, JohnO?

    So now you're a WhaleOil follower? What a tool.

    Whaleoil says whatever his payers tell him to say. He does this for a living. Go back a couple of years and his posts about Winston are generally of the theme "Winston tells lies".

    Indeed, except now he is saying that this is a deliberate smear
    campaign by National.

    At least he is not trying to blame public servants to distract froman increasingly desperate National party, who may have just thrown away
    any chance of going into coalition with Winston . . .

    Somebody told somebody but you do not know who did the telling but you lie upon lie. Assumption of guilt is an artform you have perfected and defending people that steal is another one of your "strenghts"!

    Not atypical for his generation. Are you trying to distract from your
    attempt to slur Winston Peters?

    What dishonesty record are you talking about? Its nothing compared
    with the Dirty Tricks of National - the scandal is about the public
    servants exposing details of individuals for political purposes - and
    it then being "conveniently" leaked - no dishonesty from Peters in
    that - he is rightly appalled that his personal details follow a trail
    of similar disclosures by National.

    He is probably about average in height - should we believe anything >> >> >>> you say?

    "Probably"? So you don't know then. I've met him. He's tiny.

    5 foot 7 inches. Well above midget

    Cite? That's pretty short. Lets call him a short-arse then. Happy now or are you still desperate to divert the thread away from Winston's dishonesty record a little longer?

    Not atypical for his generation.

    Google "Winston Peters height"
    You really are losing it, aren't you JOhnO? Take a deep breath, and
    try smiling at a stranger; it will make you feel better and take your

    Are you trying to distract from your
    attempt to slur Winston Peters?

    You're the one banging on about the specifics of his midget classification, dickhead.
    He has only been so "classified" by a despicable slur from a troll
    attempting to distract from a leak from the outgoing National
    government . . .


    What dishonesty record are you talking about?

    As listed in the original post in this thread, dickhead. I see you've successfully distracted yourself from the topic. The only person in the history
    of usenet to startle themselves with a "look, squirrel"!
    That is dishonesty from a single poster who made unsupported
    assertions - who calls for cites from others but does not give them
    himself. Recognise yourself, JOhnO?


    Its nothing compared
    with the Dirty Tricks of National - the scandal is about the public
    servants exposing details of individuals for political purposes - and

    We don't know their purpose. You are making shit up.
    For once I agree - we do not know National's purpose in making this
    leak - yet another illegal disclosure of personal information for
    political purposes. It is however hard to see why they did it - you
    are correct; increasingly New Zealanders are wondering at the purpose
    of this National-led government; it is certainly not the welfare of
    New Zealanders in general.



    it then being "conveniently" leaked - no dishonesty from Peters in
    that - he is rightly appalled that his personal details follow a trail
    of similar disclosures by National.



    So was Sir Robert Muldoon.

    Still like politicans to-day he represented some of the people.

    Rich is a waste of air, bandwidth and neurons. There is no reason why National (or Labour for that matter) would do this, We do not know who leaked it to the press and for Rich to assume it was National is yet another deliberate lie by him. The only party that might gain from doing it is the Greens who are at serious risk right now, unless of course it was Winston himself or simply a government employee that did something unacceptable - it happens unfortunately. But Rich can only drool over the idea that it had to be the government or the National party. By the way how tall do you imagine Rich is, there are elements of "short man syndrome" in some of his posts. David Lange was quite short also, I met him more than once but unlike Rich he had real intellect.

    You couldn't make this shit up, but apparently Winston could!



    He's been caught out.
    The form mentioned is very simple.
    And the drunken dwarf is supposedly a lawyer who is supposed to read documents for the 'escape clauses' before his clients sign them


    Since it was no business of Eagleson's, what exactly was the purpose and intent
    of Peters' situation being fed to English's top **political** appointee and right-hand man, a man who has no ministerial responsibility whatever for, or oversight of, the
    activities of MSD or any other ministry?

    BTW, Anne Tolley (MSD) had been informed of the matter way back at the end of July, and we already know that her predecessor had personally set the breach-of-privacy bar at ground level for that outfit from out of her own mouth. Nod-nod, wink-wink, say
    no more!

    But the welter of petty spite and malicious schoolyard name-calling that surrounds this private affair runs right from the very top of party politics to
    the quack-voiced bottom-feeders of New Zealand's tinpot scandal media.

    Yet, despite all this idiot lynch-mob clamour, English remains commendably aloof; in fact, he even confirms that, despite all the hammering Peters has been getting, he has not yet excluded this luckless soul as a potential coalition partner. Gracious
    and even-handed one might well think.

    But the question still remains: what kind of a right-minded top smell who is nevertheless not above stiffing the taxpayer to feed his own vaulting greed, would want a "drunken dwarf" who's confused about his pension entitlements anywhere near his
    administration?

    Or is it perhaps that, in matters of easy virtue and dissimulation, in Peters he recognises his own under-the-counter, obfuscating kind, a fellow bird of the
    same tarnished feather to be welcomed with open arms to his fetid bed of sleaze?

    I have reason to believe that the only person to benefit from this is

    Do you have a cite for that? I have heard him say that a mistake was

    mistake or that of the department.

    Of course I've got a cite for that you dick.

    Once again, Dickbot is too stupid/lazy/incompetent to use Google.

    http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11912314

    'There appeared to have been an alteration to his application form but "no
    one knows how it was made", he said.'
    Since the application form is kept by the department, Peters would
    have had no opportunity to alter the form - do you have any evidence
    that he had such an opportunity?




    You couldn't make this shit up, but apparently Winston could!
    Or perhaps it is you and National that are making this shit up - see
    for example:

    and did Peter Dunne know something?:
    https://twitter.com/PeterDunneMP/status/901716812408119296

    The government have denied that they leaked it. So far there's no evidence
    that they did - only supposition. Cui bono? Labour for one, not National.
    Labour appear to have found out at the same time as it became public -
    but it was right around the National party - did you read the links.

    https://www.whaleoil.co.nz/2017/08/tracy-watkins-onto-peters-hit-job/

    Note that Eagleson carefully said that he "did not tell English or
    others in the office"- leaving out whether he told others _outside_
    the office.

    So who is your pick for leaking it? - Steven Joyce?, Paula Bennett?,
    Anne Tolley?, Wayne Eagleson?, Judith Collins?


    My bet would be somebody with no links to the Labour party Rich. After
    all the only party liable to gain any benefit from this is Labour who
    are desperate to get their dirty hands on the Treasury benches

    There is no evidence against any of them except we have been told that
    they had the information . . .


    Nice twist on the Labour good, National bad mantra Richie :)

    Pooh

    According to Shane Jones, the story was leaked by MSD civil servant Brendan Boyle.

    Dickbot's too useless to look that up and will start bleating for a cite so here it is Dickbot:

    Why would anyone believe a word this drunken midget says?

    He is probably about average in height - should we believe anything

    "Probably"? So you don't know then. I've met him. He's tiny.
    You sick abuser - he is not in any way a midget.



    And now...

    "Someone altered the form"
    Do you have a cite for that? I have heard him say that a mistake was

    Of course I've got a cite for that you dick.

    'There appeared to have been an alteration to his application form but "no one knows how it was made", he said.'
    Since the application form is kept by the department, Peters would
    have had no opportunity to alter the form - do you have any evidence
    that he had such an opportunity?




    You couldn't make this shit up, but apparently Winston could!
    Or perhaps it is you and National that are making this shit up - see

    My bet would be somebody with no links to the Labour party Rich. After
    all the only party liable to gain any benefit from this is Labour who
    are desperate to get their dirty hands on the Treasury benches

    There is no evidence against any of them except we have been told that
    they had the information . . .


    Nice twist on the Labour good, National bad mantra Richie :)

    Pooh

    According to Shane Jones, the story was leaked by MSD civil servant Brendan Boyle.

    Dickbot's too useless to look that up and will start bleating for a cite so here it is Dickbot:

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/96340317/shane-jones-takes-aim-at-social-development-boss-writings-on-the-wall

    If necessary Dickbot, ask a grownup how to use a mouse to click in the link above.


    While it may have been easy for you to click on the link, apaprently
    it was much harder for you to actually read the words.
    From the article:

    "Ministry of Social Development chief executive Brendan Boyle has
    confirmed he briefed his minister Anne Tolley that the department had
    settled a matter with NZ First leader Winston Peters' on the
    overpayment of his pension.

    He was not the only official to know or to brief their minister of
    Peters' personal superannuation details"

    ""The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be
    disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the
    State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be
    disclosed to the Minister of Social Development under the 'no
    surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the
    Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister
    Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne
    Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the decision not to tell the
    Prime Minister.

    It's unclear where the leak has come from, but NZ First is pointing
    the finger at National while that party is rejecting suggestions it
    released Peters' pension information.

    Three separate investigations were launched this week, into the source
    of a leak to journalists about an error in Peters' pension
    application, that resulted in him being overpaid for a number of
    years."

    "Inland Revenue, the Ministry of Social Development and Ministerial
    Services have all launched internal inquiries into the handling of the information, and State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes said if a
    leak in the public service was discovered, it would be met with "zero tolerance". "

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    Re the first, listen to: http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis
    "Winston Peters is vowing that whoever leaked his superannuation
    details will be held to account. He says he doesn't think government
    officials should have briefed ministers of his situation, especially
    before he himself had been told he needed to pay money back.

    "This whole 'no surprises' policy has really morphed from being 'give information where a minister may be accountable, especially in
    Parliament' to simply 'tell the Minister anything that might cause the
    minister any sort of problems at all' - and that certainly shouldn't
    be happening," University of Otago law professor Andrew Geddis tells
    Morning Report."

    Part of the problem is undoubtedly the bullying stance taken by
    National Ministers - they appear not to believe that the law (in this
    case Privacy Laws) apply to them, and they do not understand the
    importance of poliitical impartiality from the Public service. There
    should be another investigation into whether the law has been breached
    - Winston Peters and Shane Jones certainly think so, but that should
    not stop such an investigation.

    Then we have the equally serious breach of privacy in the information
    being leaked to news media. This is hardly the soprt of leak which
    comes under whistleblower provisions, and it may well be hard to prove
    that it was not one of the Ministers or their staff (even given the
    careful wording from Eaglesome that he did not tell anyone else in the
    PMs office - leaving unstated whether he told someone else . . .) -
    and National know that in this case their firm belief that anything is
    OK if you dont get caught" may well see 'no-one have to answer for
    this illegal act.
    My view is than at reasonable

    The notification from the department to the minister is not a "leak" you dissembling little tool. It's a formal channel and if you bothered to read the article you would have seen that the department took advice from the SSC:

    "The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the State Services Commission

    So don't call that a leak because it is no such thing. The question is who leaked to the media, and Shane Jones is blasting Boyle for it.

    While it may have been easy for you to click on the link, apaprently
    it was much harder for you to actually read the words.
    From the article:

    "Ministry of Social Development chief executive Brendan Boyle has
    confirmed he briefed his minister Anne Tolley that the department had
    settled a matter with NZ First leader Winston Peters' on the
    overpayment of his pension.

    He was not the only official to know or to brief their minister of
    Peters' personal superannuation details"

    ""The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be
    disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the
    State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be
    disclosed to the Minister of Social Development under the 'no
    surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the
    Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister
    Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne
    Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the decision not to tell the
    Prime Minister.

    It's unclear where the leak has come from, but NZ First is pointing
    the finger at National while that party is rejecting suggestions it
    released Peters' pension information.

    Three separate investigations were launched this week, into the source
    of a leak to journalists about an error in Peters' pension
    application, that resulted in him being overpaid for a number of
    years."

    "Inland Revenue, the Ministry of Social Development and Ministerial
    Services have all launched internal inquiries into the handling of the information, and State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes said if a
    leak in the public service was discovered, it would be met with "zero tolerance". "

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    Re the first, listen to: http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis
    "Winston Peters is vowing that whoever leaked his superannuation
    details will be held to account. He says he doesn't think government
    officials should have briefed ministers of his situation, especially
    before he himself had been told he needed to pay money back.

    "This whole 'no surprises' policy has really morphed from being 'give information where a minister may be accountable, especially in
    Parliament' to simply 'tell the Minister anything that might cause the
    minister any sort of problems at all' - and that certainly shouldn't
    be happening," University of Otago law professor Andrew Geddis tells
    Morning Report."

    Part of the problem is undoubtedly the bullying stance taken by
    National Ministers - they appear not to believe that the law (in this
    case Privacy Laws) apply to them, and they do not understand the
    importance of poliitical impartiality from the Public service. There
    should be another investigation into whether the law has been breached
    - Winston Peters and Shane Jones certainly think so, but that should
    not stop such an investigation.

    Then we have the equally serious breach of privacy in the information
    being leaked to news media. This is hardly the soprt of leak which
    comes under whistleblower provisions, and it may well be hard to prove
    that it was not one of the Ministers or their staff (even given the
    careful wording from Eaglesome that he did not tell anyone else in the
    PMs office - leaving unstated whether he told someone else . . .) -
    and National know that in this case their firm belief that anything is
    OK if you dont get caught" may well see 'no-one have to answer for
    this illegal act.

    Give up JohnO, the word etiquette is one that Rich cannot relate to - it implies ethics, another difficult concept for him.

    According to Shane Jones, the story was leaked by MSD civil servant Brendan >>Boyle.

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and

    Re the first, listen to: >http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis

    My view is than at reasonable
    Bollocks, there is no need to prove that it was not one of the ministers or staff, it is necessary for someone to prove that it was - otherwise no case
    to
    answer.
    Peters is simply doing what he always does, making noises and once more he
    may
    be wrong (a habit if his).

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/96340317/shane-jones-takes-aim-at-social-development-boss-writings-on-the-wall

    If necessary Dickbot, ask a grownup how to use a mouse to click in the link >>>above.


    While it may have been easy for you to click on the link, apaprently
    it was much harder for you to actually read the words.
    From the article:

    "Ministry of Social Development chief executive Brendan Boyle has
    confirmed he briefed his minister Anne Tolley that the department had >>settled a matter with NZ First leader Winston Peters' on the
    overpayment of his pension.

    He was not the only official to know or to brief their minister of
    Peters' personal superannuation details"

    ""The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be
    disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the
    State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be
    disclosed to the Minister of Social Development under the 'no
    surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the
    Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister
    Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne >>Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the decision not to tell the
    Prime Minister.

    It's unclear where the leak has come from, but NZ First is pointing
    the finger at National while that party is rejecting suggestions it >>released Peters' pension information.

    Three separate investigations were launched this week, into the source
    of a leak to journalists about an error in Peters' pension
    application, that resulted in him being overpaid for a number of
    years."

    "Inland Revenue, the Ministry of Social Development and Ministerial >>Services have all launched internal inquiries into the handling of the >>information, and State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes said if a
    leak in the public service was discovered, it would be met with "zero >>tolerance". "

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    Re the first, listen to: >>http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis
    "Winston Peters is vowing that whoever leaked his superannuation
    details will be held to account. He says he doesn't think government >>officials should have briefed ministers of his situation, especially
    before he himself had been told he needed to pay money back.

    "This whole 'no surprises' policy has really morphed from being 'give >>information where a minister may be accountable, especially in
    Parliament' to simply 'tell the Minister anything that might cause the >>minister any sort of problems at all' - and that certainly shouldn't
    be happening," University of Otago law professor Andrew Geddis tells >>Morning Report."

    Part of the problem is undoubtedly the bullying stance taken by
    National Ministers - they appear not to believe that the law (in this
    case Privacy Laws) apply to them, and they do not understand the
    importance of poliitical impartiality from the Public service. There
    should be another investigation into whether the law has been breached
    - Winston Peters and Shane Jones certainly think so, but that should
    not stop such an investigation.

    Then we have the equally serious breach of privacy in the information
    being leaked to news media. This is hardly the soprt of leak which
    comes under whistleblower provisions, and it may well be hard to prove
    that it was not one of the Ministers or their staff (even given the
    careful wording from Eaglesome that he did not tell anyone else in the
    PMs office - leaving unstated whether he told someone else . . .) -
    and National know that in this case their firm belief that anything is
    OK if you dont get caught" may well see 'no-one have to answer for
    this illegal act.
    My view is than at reasonable
    Bollocks, there is no need to prove that it was not one of the ministers or >staff, it is necessary for someone to prove that it was - otherwise no case to >answer.
    Peters is simply doing what he always does, making noises and once more he may >be wrong (a habit if his).
    Tony

    Winston is complainng about he public aservants wrongly oputting ":no surprises" ahead of Privacy laws, He was also complaining about the
    cabinet ministers offending against he privacy act in passing htat
    information on to others, including Bill English'chief of staff - but
    don't worry Tony, National will make sure any police or other enquiry
    does not make a decision before the election . . .

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    The notification from the department to the minister is not a "leak" you dissembling little tool. It's a formal channel and if you bothered to read the article you would have seen that the department took advice from the SSC:

    "The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be disclosed to the Minister of
    Social Development under
    the 'no surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the
    decision not to tell the Prime Minister.
    "

    So don't call that a leak because it is no such thing. The question is who leaked to the media, and Shane Jones is blasting Boyle for it.
    See below - I see that you deliberately snipped the earlier part of
    the thread - you were the person that quoted a reference to the leak
    coming from Bendan Boyle :
    JohnO: "According to Shane Jones, the story was leaked by MSD civil
    servant Brendan Boyle." - you did not object to that description
    before. Disclosing information that should not be disclosed _is_ a
    leak, you idiot.

    OK, so Dickbot can't grasp the English language, let alone use of Google.

    The information was passed through a legitinate channel on the advice if the SSC Commissioner. A "leak" is an unauthorised secret release of information. This information release was authorised and discoverable. Whether it was wise or not is irrelevant.
    The SSC Commissioner got it wrong - and he is one of those that leaked
    the information to a (different) National party minister.






    Re the first, listen to:
    http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis

    Who cares what Geddis and the blustering drunken midget Winston say?
    The main content was fom Andrew Geddis - did you even listen?

    And the earlier part of the thread that you were so embarrassed about
    that you deleted:

    Nope. I snip from posts to increase readablity and reduce repetition. It's called good usenet etiquette. Being a dopey little fuckwit you wouldn't understand. Indeed everything is visible in a threaded reader (do you know what
    that is) so snipping doesn'
    t remove any content.
    It was deleted because his later statement was totally contrary to an
    earlier statement.

    Note that Eagleson carefully said that he "did not tell English or

    the office.

    So who is your pick for leaking it? - Steven Joyce?, Paula Bennett?,
    Anne Tolley?, Wayne Eagleson?, Judith Collins?


    My bet would be somebody with no links to the Labour party Rich. After
    all the only party liable to gain any benefit from this is Labour who
    are desperate to get their dirty hands on the Treasury benches

    There is no evidence against any of them except we have been told that
    they had the information . . .

    Cameron Slater believes the shit is beng thrown by National . . .what

    Cam has been getting increasingly anti-National since English was made
    PM Rich. On top of that Winston was tossed out of the National party
    after English got a vote against him going. It seems to me we're seeing

    Cite? That's pretty short. Lets call him a short-arse then. Happy now or are
    you still desperate to divert the thread away from Winston's dishonesty record a little longer?

    Not atypical for his generation. Are you trying to distract from your
    attempt to slur Winston Peters?

    What dishonesty record are you talking about? Its nothing compared
    with the Dirty Tricks of National - the scandal is about the public
    servants exposing details of individuals for political purposes - and
    it then being "conveniently" leaked - no dishonesty from Peters in
    that - he is rightly appalled that his personal details follow a trail
    of similar disclosures by National.


    Maybe so Rich. However there is every indication of dishonesty in his
    story about when he applied for super back in 2010 and his continued
    receipt of the wrong payment for seven years. Particularly so as MSD
    send out a letter EVERY year to check no changes have occurred since you
    signed up.

    It covers your Relationship status amongst other things. Now Winston
    either didn't bother to read the letter or was to stupid to understand
    this question. But to me it looks like a simple case of attempted fraud
    much like Turei's!

    So was Sir Robert Muldoon.

    Are you trying to distract from your
    attempt to slur Winston Peters?

    You're the one banging on about the specifics of his midget classification, dickhead.
    He has only been so "classified" by a despicable slur from a troll
    attempting to distract from a leak from the outgoing National
    government . . .


    Supposition on your part unless it's just another outright lie from the
    ng troll and Labour/Green/fraudster supporting liar posting as Rich80105:)


    What dishonesty record are you talking about?

    As listed in the original post in this thread, dickhead. I see you've successfully distracted yourself from the topic. The only person in the history
    of usenet to startle themselves with a "look, squirrel"!
    That is dishonesty from a single poster who made unsupported
    assertions - who calls for cites from others but does not give them
    himself. Recognise yourself, JOhnO?


    Hardly as that's a perfect description of you Rich!


    Its nothing compared
    with the Dirty Tricks of National - the scandal is about the public
    servants exposing details of individuals for political purposes - and

    We don't know their purpose. You are making shit up.
    For once I agree - we do not know National's purpose in making this
    leak - yet another illegal disclosure of personal information for
    political purposes. It is however hard to see why they did it - you
    are correct; increasingly New Zealanders are wondering at the purpose
    of this National-led government; it is certainly not the welfare of
    New Zealanders in general.



    What makes you think Winston didn't make the leak Rich. It'd be a pretty
    good stick to hit English with as Winston lines up for the Prime
    Minister job :)


    it then being "conveniently" leaked - no dishonesty from Peters in
    that - he is rightly appalled that his personal details follow a trail
    of similar disclosures by National.



    So was Sir Robert Muldoon.

    Still like politicans to-day he represented some of the people.

    Rich is a waste of air, bandwidth and neurons. There is no reason why
    National
    (or Labour for that matter) would do this, We do not know who leaked it to
    the
    press and for Rich to assume it was National is yet another deliberate lie by him. The only party that might gain from doing it is the Greens who are at serious risk right now, unless of course it was Winston himself or simply a government employee that did something unacceptable - it happens
    unfortunately.
    But Rich can only drool over the idea that it had to be the government or the National party. By the way how tall do you imagine Rich is, there are
    elements
    of "short man syndrome" in some of his posts. David Lange was quite short
    also,
    I met him more than once but unlike Rich he had real intellect.
    Tony


    My bet is Rich is a very small man in all ways :)

    Can't argue on facts eh Dickbot? You said the evidence was the Nats had the information. So did a whole lot of others. Too hard for you to follow, Dumbo?
    It is a fact that the public servants you were accusing had no
    incentive to release the information. Indeed they sought advice on
    whether it should be given to Ministers under the "No surprises" rules
    - which is now giving rise to discussion on how that is being abused
    by National as they seek to politicise our public servants.


    BULLSHIT! The politicising of the Public Service goes back to Clark's government!




    As per usual, Dickbot has nothing but just throws excrement like the chimpanzee he is.
    Cameron Slater believes the shit is beng thrown by National . . .what
    does he know that you don't, JohnO?

    So now you're a WhaleOil follower? What a tool.

    Whaleoil says whatever his payers tell him to say. He does this for a living. Go back a couple of years and his posts about Winston are generally of the theme "Winston tells lies".

    Indeed, except now he is saying that this is a deliberate smear
    campaign by National.


    Sheesh! After years of claiming Cam is a tool of the National party you suddenly believe him. Guess wishful thinking beats the shit out of
    thinking in your book AND doesn't make your head hurt either Rich:)
    At least he is not trying to blame public servants to distract froman increasingly desperate National party, who may have just thrown away
    any chance of going into coalition with Winston . . .


    Makes you wonder if Labours grubby fingers aren't deeply into this
    doesn't it Rich. Oh that's right according to you Labour NEVER plays
    dirty politics. Because Nicky only used Nationals e-mails to write his
    fairy tale 'Dirty Politics'

    So who is your pick for leaking it? - Steven Joyce?, Paula Bennett?,

    My bet would be somebody with no links to the Labour party Rich. After
    all the only party liable to gain any benefit from this is Labour who
    are desperate to get their dirty hands on the Treasury benches

    There is no evidence against any of them except we have been told that

    Pooh

    According to Shane Jones, the story was leaked by MSD civil servant Brendan
    Boyle.

    Dickbot's too useless to look that up and will start bleating for a cite so
    here it is Dickbot:

    Another reason I lean towards Winston being the leaker for his own
    political ends.

    If necessary Dickbot, ask a grownup how to use a mouse to click in the link above.


    While it may have been easy for you to click on the link, apaprently
    it was much harder for you to actually read the words.
    From the article:

    "Ministry of Social Development chief executive Brendan Boyle has
    confirmed he briefed his minister Anne Tolley that the department had
    settled a matter with NZ First leader Winston Peters' on the
    overpayment of his pension.

    He was not the only official to know or to brief their minister of
    Peters' personal superannuation details"

    ""The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be
    disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the
    State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be
    disclosed to the Minister of Social Development under the 'no
    surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the
    Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister
    Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the decision not to tell the
    Prime Minister.

    It's unclear where the leak has come from, but NZ First is pointing
    the finger at National while that party is rejecting suggestions it
    released Peters' pension information.

    Three separate investigations were launched this week, into the source
    of a leak to journalists about an error in Peters' pension
    application, that resulted in him being overpaid for a number of
    years."

    "Inland Revenue, the Ministry of Social Development and Ministerial
    Services have all launched internal inquiries into the handling of the information, and State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes said if a
    leak in the public service was discovered, it would be met with "zero tolerance". "

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    Re the first, listen to: http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis
    "Winston Peters is vowing that whoever leaked his superannuation
    details will be held to account. He says he doesn't think government officials should have briefed ministers of his situation, especially
    before he himself had been told he needed to pay money back.

    "This whole 'no surprises' policy has really morphed from being 'give information where a minister may be accountable, especially in
    Parliament' to simply 'tell the Minister anything that might cause the minister any sort of problems at all' - and that certainly shouldn't
    be happening," University of Otago law professor Andrew Geddis tells
    Morning Report."

    Part of the problem is undoubtedly the bullying stance taken by
    National Ministers - they appear not to believe that the law (in this
    case Privacy Laws) apply to them, and they do not understand the
    importance of poliitical impartiality from the Public service. There
    should be another investigation into whether the law has been breached
    - Winston Peters and Shane Jones certainly think so, but that should
    not stop such an investigation.

    Then we have the equally serious breach of privacy in the information
    being leaked to news media. This is hardly the soprt of leak which
    comes under whistleblower provisions, and it may well be hard to prove
    that it was not one of the Ministers or their staff (even given the
    careful wording from Eaglesome that he did not tell anyone else in the
    PMs office - leaving unstated whether he told someone else . . .) -
    and National know that in this case their firm belief that anything is
    OK if you dont get caught" may well see 'no-one have to answer for
    this illegal act.

    Rich. A snip n' paste doesn't improve what little argument you have. The
    fact of the matter is that as usual you jump to the conclusions that fit
    your twisted marxist mindset*.

    So who is your pick for leaking it? - Steven Joyce?, Paula Bennett?,
    Anne Tolley?, Wayne Eagleson?, Judith Collins?


    My bet would be somebody with no links to the Labour party Rich. After
    all the only party liable to gain any benefit from this is Labour who
    are desperate to get their dirty hands on the Treasury benches

    There is no evidence against any of them except we have been told that >>>> they had the information . . .


    Nice twist on the Labour good, National bad mantra Richie :)

    Pooh

    According to Shane Jones, the story was leaked by MSD civil servant Brendan Boyle.

    Dickbot's too useless to look that up and will start bleating for a cite so here it is Dickbot:

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/96340317/shane-jones-takes-aim-at-social-development-boss-writings-on-the-wall

    If necessary Dickbot, ask a grownup how to use a mouse to click in the link above.


    While it may have been easy for you to click on the link, apaprently
    it was much harder for you to actually read the words.
    From the article:

    "Ministry of Social Development chief executive Brendan Boyle has
    confirmed he briefed his minister Anne Tolley that the department had
    settled a matter with NZ First leader Winston Peters' on the
    overpayment of his pension.

    He was not the only official to know or to brief their minister of
    Peters' personal superannuation details"

    ""The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be
    disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the
    State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be
    disclosed to the Minister of Social Development under the 'no
    surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the
    Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister
    Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the decision not to tell the
    Prime Minister.

    It's unclear where the leak has come from, but NZ First is pointing
    the finger at National while that party is rejecting suggestions it
    released Peters' pension information.

    Three separate investigations were launched this week, into the source
    of a leak to journalists about an error in Peters' pension
    application, that resulted in him being overpaid for a number of
    years."

    "Inland Revenue, the Ministry of Social Development and Ministerial
    Services have all launched internal inquiries into the handling of the information, and State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes said if a
    leak in the public service was discovered, it would be met with "zero tolerance". "

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    Re the first, listen to: http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis
    "Winston Peters is vowing that whoever leaked his superannuation
    details will be held to account. He says he doesn't think government officials should have briefed ministers of his situation, especially
    before he himself had been told he needed to pay money back.

    "This whole 'no surprises' policy has really morphed from being 'give information where a minister may be accountable, especially in
    Parliament' to simply 'tell the Minister anything that might cause the minister any sort of problems at all' - and that certainly shouldn't
    be happening," University of Otago law professor Andrew Geddis tells
    Morning Report."

    Part of the problem is undoubtedly the bullying stance taken by
    National Ministers - they appear not to believe that the law (in this
    case Privacy Laws) apply to them, and they do not understand the
    importance of poliitical impartiality from the Public service. There
    should be another investigation into whether the law has been breached
    - Winston Peters and Shane Jones certainly think so, but that should
    not stop such an investigation.

    Then we have the equally serious breach of privacy in the information
    being leaked to news media. This is hardly the soprt of leak which
    comes under whistleblower provisions, and it may well be hard to prove
    that it was not one of the Ministers or their staff (even given the
    careful wording from Eaglesome that he did not tell anyone else in the
    PMs office - leaving unstated whether he told someone else . . .) -
    and National know that in this case their firm belief that anything is
    OK if you dont get caught" may well see 'no-one have to answer for
    this illegal act.
    My view is than at reasonable

    If in fact Winston is the innocent party why hasn't he been open and
    provided the media with access to his info to clear the belief he DID
    commit fraud knowingly? At present we have WinstonFirst attacking public servants and demanding resignation without any actual proof of who
    leaked what to the media. My bet is the drunk dwarf is the leaker AND
    why is it okay for Winston to have private information he's using to
    blackmail the government? The media are as usually failing miserably.
    Much like the trolling Rich!

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    The notification from the department to the minister is not a "leak" you dissembling little tool. It's a formal channel and if you bothered to read the article you would have seen that the department took advice from the SSC:

    "The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be disclosed to the Minister of
    Social Development
    under the 'no surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the
    decision not to tell the Prime Minister.
    "

    So don't call that a leak because it is no such thing. The question is who
    leaked to the media, and Shane Jones is blasting Boyle for it.
    See below - I see that you deliberately snipped the earlier part of
    the thread - you were the person that quoted a reference to the leak
    coming from Bendan Boyle :
    JohnO: "According to Shane Jones, the story was leaked by MSD civil
    servant Brendan Boyle." - you did not object to that description
    before. Disclosing information that should not be disclosed _is_ a
    leak, you idiot.

    OK, so Dickbot can't grasp the English language, let alone use of Google.

    The information was passed through a legitinate channel on the advice if the
    SSC Commissioner. A "leak" is an unauthorised secret release of information. This information release was authorised and discoverable. Whether it was wise or not is
    irrelevant.
    The SSC Commissioner got it wrong - and he is one of those that leaked
    the information to a (different) National party minister.

    FFS! Winston is most likely to be the leaker Rich. If you believe
    otherwise there's absolutely no hope for you!






    Re the first, listen to:

    Who cares what Geddis and the blustering drunken midget Winston say?
    The main content was fom Andrew Geddis - did you even listen?

    And the earlier part of the thread that you were so embarrassed about
    that you deleted:

    Nope. I snip from posts to increase readablity and reduce repetition. It's called good usenet etiquette. Being a dopey little fuckwit you wouldn't understand. Indeed everything is visible in a threaded reader (do you know what
    that is) so snipping
    doesn't remove any content.
    It was deleted because his later statement was totally contrary to an
    earlier statement.


    Only in your trolling, non comprehending world Rich.

    Winston is complainng about he public aservants wrongly oputting ":no surprises" ahead of Privacy laws, He was also complaining about the
    cabinet ministers offending against he privacy act in passing htat information on to others, including Bill English'chief of staff - but
    don't worry Tony, National will make sure any police or other enquiry
    does not make a decision before the election . . .

    Winston is keeping himself in the public eye Rich. The only thing the

    "Ministry of Social Development chief executive Brendan Boyle has
    confirmed he briefed his minister Anne Tolley that the department had
    settled a matter with NZ First leader Winston Peters' on the
    overpayment of his pension.

    He was not the only official to know or to brief their minister of
    Peters' personal superannuation details"

    ""The Chief Executive discussed whether this matter needed to be
    disclosed to his Minister, under the no surprises policy, with the
    State Services Commission who provided advice that this should be
    disclosed to the Minister of Social Development under the 'no
    surprises' policy."

    State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes sought advice from the
    Solicitor General and on that basis, he also briefed his minister
    Paula Bennett on the issue. The Prime Minister's chief of staff Wayne
    Eagleson was briefed by Tolley, but took the decision not to tell the
    Prime Minister.

    It's unclear where the leak has come from, but NZ First is pointing
    the finger at National while that party is rejecting suggestions it
    released Peters' pension information.

    Three separate investigations were launched this week, into the source
    of a leak to journalists about an error in Peters' pension
    application, that resulted in him being overpaid for a number of
    years."

    "Inland Revenue, the Ministry of Social Development and Ministerial
    Services have all launched internal inquiries into the handling of the
    information, and State Services Commissioner Peter Hughes said if a
    leak in the public service was discovered, it would be met with "zero
    tolerance". "

    So we have two leaks - first by the public sector to Ministers, and
    second to the news media.

    Re the first, listen to:
    http://www.radionz.co.nz/national/programmes/morningreport/audio/201856602/no-surprises-policy-has-morphed-andrew-geddis
    "Winston Peters is vowing that whoever leaked his superannuation
    details will be held to account. He says he doesn't think government
    officials should have briefed ministers of his situation, especially
    before he himself had been told he needed to pay money back.

    "This whole 'no surprises' policy has really morphed from being 'give
    information where a minister may be accountable, especially in
    Parliament' to simply 'tell the Minister anything that might cause the
    minister any sort of problems at all' - and that certainly shouldn't
    be happening," University of Otago law professor Andrew Geddis tells
    Morning Report."

    Part of the problem is undoubtedly the bullying stance taken by
    National Ministers - they appear not to believe that the law (in this
    case Privacy Laws) apply to them, and they do not understand the
    importance of poliitical impartiality from the Public service. There
    should be another investigation into whether the law has been breached
    - Winston Peters and Shane Jones certainly think so, but that should
    not stop such an investigation.

    Then we have the equally serious breach of privacy in the information
    being leaked to news media. This is hardly the soprt of leak which
    comes under whistleblower provisions, and it may well be hard to prove
    that it was not one of the Ministers or their staff (even given the
    careful wording from Eaglesome that he did not tell anyone else in the
    PMs office - leaving unstated whether he told someone else . . .) -
    and National know that in this case their firm belief that anything is
    OK if you dont get caught" may well see 'no-one have to answer for
    this illegal act.
    My view is than at reasonable
    Bollocks, there is no need to prove that it was not one of the ministers or staff, it is necessary for someone to prove that it was - otherwise no case
    to
    answer.
    Peters is simply doing what he always does, making noises and once more he
    may
    be wrong (a habit if his).

    Winston is complainng about he public aservants wrongly oputting ":no >surprises" ahead of Privacy laws, He was also complaining about the
    cabinet ministers offending against he privacy act in passing htat >information on to others, including Bill English'chief of staff - but
    don't worry Tony, National will make sure any police or other enquiry
    does not make a decision before the election . . .
    You implied that the Ministers or their staff told the press, I merely said that needs proof and they do not need to prove that they did not. Not too hard to understand that is it?
    I am not in the least bit worried, nothing you have ever written here has got close to worrying me.
