I have been told planning for next year's ACT conference is already underway. Here's a picture of the venue.
And, thanks to a great accommodation deal the party has struck, here's where the delegates will be staying.
The keynote speaker has already been booked.
And the conference dinner promises to be a highlight.
It's always a good chance at conference to catch up with some of the party faithful.
And then after dinner, and when the dancing starts, people really start letting things go.







Oui, there's a seriously easy thesis just sitting there for any bright young thing to simply add up ACT's column-inches from the mainstream dailies' archives and compare it to their actual vote. Or time in govt. Or compared to say the coverage/time in gov for the Alliance or NZF.
ReplyDeleteLiquefaction and Brent Crude have brought it home and the pennies have finally dropped. Toupe Jean can't do it alone, and NAT needs ACT. Only NACTZI can deliver.
Hence Granny and Armstrong's desperate promotion of the putrefying corpse; and its only possible resucitation via the blatant electoral rort of Epsom.
Friendless and alone: save for its icy grip on the sole influence on the waiving voter and the cynical strategists of Epsom. The former should suffice. Temporarily.
Please find it in your heart to forgive me for doubting your ability in forecasting the future of this squeaking noise that's begging for survival.
ReplyDeleteLet me begin writing its obituary now:
It was a dark and stormy night
They fled ungently into that dark night
Aghast at its future of nothingness and decay
they rattled and slunk away ...
Their collapsing fell in torrents
unchecked by the violent winds
alarmed at the loss of their warrants
they struggled in vain to rescind ...
all together now ...
