voters have for that.

admitted that he should not have received it and repaid the money. Of

Rich, the Greens have ruled that out any accommodation with National
(and I gave my cite for this). There has been no repudiation of that
refusal to accommodate National. The offer made by Shaw to listen if
he was to be phoned by English is a courtesy offer only. I don't
recall National ever ruling out working with the Greens in Government.
Personally I would be delighted if the Greens would consider working
with National. As things stand currently that would drastically
change the options available to National to form a new Government.

What nonsense - he did not commit an offence
Of course he did. National have long had contempt for the law - they
have gone from saying that anything is OK so long as the law is
obeyed, to anything is OK so long as you are not convicted - and
preferably not even charged. National had made a huge fuss about some
Green MPs cooperating in buying a property between them - totally in accordance with then rules, and had changed the rules to make that
more difficult. English would have been well aware, but he fudged it
with a claim that the public servants had given him wrong advice, and
in the end he was not charged. It remains a testimony to the venal
greed of National, and of their almost total lack of ethics. Just as
Key had been protested by the party (if he did anything wrong the
expectation and practice is that someone else took the fall for him),
so English as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of finance was
'protected' and they worked hard as dishing up spin of 'boring but
honest Bill.' That he was forced to repay $32,000 was a wake up call
that let quite a few voters know that he was no more honest than other National MPs - in other words quite corrupt, but the spin at least
partially covered that "mistake" of fradulently claiming money he was
not entitled to.
Now of course we have the example of the missing $10.9 billion which
was pure Trump-like 'alternative facts' - carefully sent to targetted potential voters ; and English chose to lie by supporting the sleazy
Joyce in that lie. It confirms the total lack of morality and ethics
from National. Yes he did commit an offence, but he got away with it
through clever spin, careful hiding of evidence, and the reality that
the public sector people invovled would have known that National would
have been vindictive to anyone who did not follow their line. They are corrupt crooks, but of course you are one of the blind supporters for
whom they can do no wrong . . .

Bill English falsely claiming one of the benefits for which MPs may be eligible but to which he was not entitled - a hint- he had to repay
over $30,000.
He claimed it on advice from Ministerial Services.

"We will not form a coalition with National".
That is their current commitment. That is why NZ First get to choose

Exactly - that is their current commitment. When National recognise

they refuse to recognise many environmental and social issues -
although it must be a bit hard to now ignore the problems caused by
water supplies being increasingly contaminated by nitrates . . .

Greens is possible - strange that you see that as requiring a shift by

of National - either way you admit that a future accomodation is not impossible.

And yet James Shaw did say that he was prepared to listen if Bill
English wanted to talk - he is willing to talk if Bill English wanted
to, but it appears Bill has ruled that out.
Benefit fraud is a serious crime and punishable by imprisonmentIndeed, but as Bill English has shown, repaying the money can be
enough to avoid a prosecution.
