While I agree with Paul Henry re global warming that is no excuse for his other gaffs!

Being right on somethings does not right wrongs.

Hero42 and the brilliant Doc think so, but then that's probably because of their Political Party's indoctrinisation.

Kragus I used to enjoy his reports from overseas, on radio, a great journalist. I don't have TV on in the morning. wink

I heard he had to resign because advertisers were threatening to pull out of their contracts with TV1. neutral

AP I believe in the freedom of speech, but I also believe that no one in his position has the right to publicly ridicule and make fun of other people.
We should all expect to be treated with respect, unless our behaviour negates that, and Paul Henry's rude and sniggering comments were totally unacceptable as far as I am concerned. If that makes me seem to be too PC, I don't care.

I remember Darren Ludlow getting the push for saying f*ck on air in the 1980's . He was sent down to Invercargill as a punishment. He told me "it was the best thing that ever happened to him as he has since married a lovely local woman, have two boys, and is standing for Deputy Mayor among all his other committee involvements in the town. smile
When Tim goes he will be Mayor as he is very well liked.! wink

Yeah with knobs on, I wouldn't buy one especially that colour. Blue is a better colour as there are less accidents with blue cars compared with red cars.
