Many years ago I went out on a limb with This Post, to make a point. This was about Mallard as an MP in the Clark Administration … you can’t comment on that though.

He was behaving like a girl then and it suited Clark not to sack him because she put herself above the principle.

Some people would call that playing God because you put yourself above the established, known, learned, previously successful principles of the past.

Today Mallard, who is now our Speaker has repeated the same silly behavior as if it was routinely acceptable.

Our current prime minister is in the same position around the same time in the political swings and around abouts of our centrist politics.

The difference is that, Mallard is now our Speaker rather than an MP.

There is only one acceptable way out of the current situation and Mallard must go.

We cannot allow the these absentee processes to take hold or we will be in a much worse position than having this isolated to the family court and any other specialist civil courts that are and might develop.
