When is the Sam Uffindel report going to be released?

Oh, you mean the Chisholm Report which cleared Judith Collins name, but was criticised as being a "cover up" a "whitewash" and "the terms of the enquiry set by John Key are completely inadequate & will never get to the bottom of anything." - that inquiry !
Collins was donkey deep in Dirty Politics with Cam Slater.
She's in no position to be lecturing on Ministerial ethics, it's a pantomime. You can see she's putting on an act & doesn't believe what she's saying herself.

C'mon Balance, there's no comparison. As has been said & Stuart Nash is even being defended by Winston Peters, all he did was tell 2 of his constituents, he was disappointed with a Cabinet decision which had already been made public. Sure the way MP's vote in Cabinet decisions are supposed to be kept confidential, but do you seriously believe for 1 moment that National MP's or other MP's have never mentioned their Cabinet disagreements to lobbyists or constituents. You couldn't be so naive.
What's interesting is those 2 constituents, Troy Bowker & Greg Loverige who Stuart Nash was hoping to help sat on this all these years, but for some reason the email appears now. How, why?
Now Barbara Kuriger, is a whole different story. Her crime was using her position to attack & threaten MPI officials investigating & prosecuting her husband & sons appalling cruelty to animals. She sent 100's of email, over 50 on National Party letterhead, & tried to get at least 1 official fired.
How she is still in parliament is staggering, but there's a whole group of them, Uffindale, Hipango, Lee, Woodhouse, Collins, Mitchell, & others of seriously questionable character.
Here's the story.

Garbage as usual from BS.
Nash was fired because he breached ministerial imperatives - simple.
Whatever the sins of others, he has no excuse and to his credit, he accepted that to be so.
BS artists like you are trying to minimise his indiscretions and inappropriate behaviour as a minister - does not work because we know you all learnt from the mistress of spin, Clueless Cindy the fallen woman.
Ombudsman to investigate further why Nash’s email was not released under OIA request - despite the email being discussed 3 (three) times.
The stench of cover up is overwhelming.

The timeline shows two staff members - Deputy chief of staff Holly Donald and a senior advisor - were aware of the OIA request, and it was discussed on three occasions.
Nash emailed them in response to the OIA request, and included the email sent to donors in it. The email was not escalated by the staff members, or released at the time, as Nash claimed it was sent in his capacity as an MP - not as a minister.
