Smokies: Murder of sea creatures?

A regular television viewer and smoke signaller writes in – With all the fish conservation programmes on TV these past weeks, has CITV not learned anything? Why does it persist in showing Spearing Paara regularly in its ad breaks? The wanton murder of what's left of God's beautiful sea creatures by a couple of men who can barely disguise their glee, is stomach-churning. And just how much fish do they need? It is this kind of greed that will bring the species to near-extinction like rhinos and elephants. Mark my words!A smoke signaller texts in to 188 – Seems Mark Brown is angry at the Demos blaming them for delays in the government getting on with running the country. What a load of BS! It’s more like the petitions have taken time and money away from their much anticipated travel junkets which you can guarantee they have itineraries waiting for approval for more useless trips. Mark Brown will have fixed for the Rugby World Cup next year – ‘mark’ my words! Hot air on extra votersWhat a lot of hot air about the extra voters on Penrhyn, texts in a smoke signaller to 188. They were in a tere party of Penrhyn people who live overseas but were basically stranded while waiting for the next ship. It just so happened that they were still on the island when the nation went to the polls and exercised their civic right to vote. In fact in some countries for example Australia, it is a civic duty and those who fail to vote are liable to be fined! As for all the fuss- what’s the bet that had they voted for Wilkie, there wouldn’t be any of this hullabaloo! It’s time for Wilkie to admit his days as MP are over and for the Demos to accept their turanga as the opposition party.
