Orauta Misinformation
August 29, 2005
Somebody pointed me towards this post by Adolf Fiinkensein on Sir Humphreys:

This was my comment:
Hi Adolf,
Regarding Orauta: From what I understand, a few of the direct descendants of the original owners would like to sell the land to a forestry company. However, most of the family would prefer that the school continue to be used for the original purpose - a school. This seems to be a case of the government setting families against each other.
Helen Hughes (Libertarianz Whangarei candidate) will try to get the other side of the story today and I will post her findings later.
I'm sorry Adolf, but just shouting 'sovereignty radicals' to shut down the debate is not going to cut it. The government does not want people to realise that there is more going on here than just some 'Maori radicals' 'occupying' a school.
Also, you seem to trust Radio Left Wing (Radio New Zealand) news only when it suits you. I submit to you some comments you have made in the recent past regarding Radio Left Wing:
http://www.kiwiblog.co.nz/archives/010240.html
"I see and deal everyday with the results of today's education and it's not a pretty sight. Why, TVNZ and Radio NZ can't even employ literate people to write the news. Have you listened lately to the embarassed Radio Left Wing news readers as they valiantly try to ad lib and correct atrocious grammer on the run?"
http://www.kiwiblog.co.nz/archives/011700.html
"Well David, someone should tell that to Radio Left Wing News who pronounced that suppression was granted because an All Black had the same sir name and he and his family might be embarrassed. I kid you not."
http://www.nbr.co.nz/blog/2005/07/us-spies-with-that.html
"Not for nothing did I dub this outfit Radio Left Wing News. It doesn't need jounalists - simply trots out the latest gummint press releases."
http://sirhumphreys.blogspot.com/2005/08/radio-labour.html
"There can be no more blatant example of deliberate and entrenched bias in the news room of the state funded broadcaster. I invite RNZ management to provide an explanation for their behaviour by way of comments on this site."
I rest my case.
