“Our prime minister chuckling away with Norman George as pictured in Friday’s CINews, just before they shut parliament down until whenever, says it all,” a smoke signaller writes. “’Sorry everyone, we have some travelling to do’. What happened to our Cook Islands Party promise of 100 days of Parliament to complete all the bills waiting these many years – obviously just a joke to them, eh? That was one of their promises to do better than the Demos I think. Also in that article Mr Puna went on to use the old tried and untrue spin system of ‘O my God, it’s those tricky papaas raising uncomfortable questions again’. Get a life, Mr Puna, check the surnames of your confederates, relatives and your well-milked taxpayers. Move into the 21st century, you have a multi cultural society to deal with at your own risk. Isn’t it just a bit scary to think that the better we educate our young people, the less likely they are to absorb your antiquated beseeching to the people of Manihiki for one more election, instead of getting on with the business of Parliament?”
