Hey Craic, do you know the price of fish?

Ask him. He probably posts on here somewhere still. As to the flippered kind, I have an electric Kon Tiki - It's called self sufficiency.
No automatic compass, just my good sense of direction. The one time it defied me and took off down the coast in the breakers, I pulled it in after twenty minutes with the most fish I had ever caught.
It was actually right towards the South Island ( where there be pirates)

Ah yes, I see what happened.

Fell over this article in another forum about John Key's involvement in the precursor to the GFC, and what he's been up to since.

Would be worth fleshing this out a bit:
Merrill Lynch (the firm that had employed John Key in senior positions) was broke by 2007, and was sold to Bank of America. In turn BoA was bailed out by the government. Toxic derivatives put in place and held internally a few years earlier were at the core of the problem, and it was a team working under John Key that devised what looks like the precursors of them, in the late 1990s.

John Key seems to have become less vocal on the idea of building a tax haven for overseas investments here in NZ, partly because the meddlesome MED people put up a few roadblocks not long after he got into power.
John found a work-around?
