Yeah right. I note the huge irony that John (stop bashing males) Tamihere is very conspicuously quiet about his party's deceptiveness in first saying they support a more open family court, then giving judges the right to effectively censor any media reporting of femily caught procedings! We clearly need some Gladsnost in NZ. John T reckons rightly that the femily caught is biased against men. He's got that much correct. Now the question is 'Whatchagonnadoaboutit John?' Stephen Gee.

Behold! The <b>"clayton's reform of the Family Court"</b> - the reform you have when you aren't having a reform. Why bother opening the Family Court to the press and, in the same breath, give the judiciary the <b>absolute</b> power to censor any reporting of proceedings? I suppose it will be the same when you introduce the Child <strike>Support</strike>Tax Amendment Bill which David Belchamber of the Commissioner's office assures me is ready for release [on the unsuspecting penalised parent fraternity, no doubt]. You, Uncle David [Cunliffe] and Uncle Steve [Maharey] need to seriously wake up and smell the coffee! There is an election coming and you will be surprised at the swing against your arrogant socio-communist "PC" government. Well, Aunty Helen, it appears you’ve gone and done the impossible again!
