Lies, Lies, No Surprise

From that Labour Department report John Key keeps quoting:
The international literature suggests exemptions to employment protection legislation, such as the trial period legislation, increase both hiring and firing but have an unclear overall impact on unemployment.
As reported in the Herald. So there are journalists actually researching stories, and not swallowing the official line. Kudos to Derek Cheng.

  1. As we speak Mr. Eade will be calling Mr. Murphy about this outrageous outbreak of reporting at the Herald.

  2. Or maybe Derek had just been over to frogblog, where I had blogged about this on Sunday.

  3. Okay, I'm feeling generous: kudos to you too, frog.

I welcome comments, but I ask commenters to follow a few simple rules:

1. I delete anonymous comments. Please use either a name or moniker. I am not asking anyone to reveal their secret identity. Just don't call yourself "Anonymous".
2. Please don't abuse or defame others.
3. Moronic or nonsensical comments may be deleted.
4. I don't often exercise the heavy hand of censorship, but I do reserve the right to delete any comment I don't like, for any reason.
