[19:55] <chilts> morning\
[19:55] <chilts> hmm
[19:56] <ajmitch> everyone recovered from the weekend? :)
[19:57]  * chilts won't recover for 3 more years
[19:58] <ibeardslee> it'll take longer than that to buy our assets back
[19:59] <chilts> we won't be able to, they'll be elsewhere
[19:59] <ibeardslee> we did buy the rail back
[19:59] <chilts> which is what pisses me off about Key 'coz he keeps saying "No-one said let's buy back Air NZ" and it's like, well, that's a completely different thing
[20:00] <chilts> that's 'coz it had been run into the ground
[20:13] <mwhudson> morning
[20:13] <mwhudson> predictably, three mps won in my electorate!
[20:18] <chilts> ??
[20:20] <mwhudson> chilts: well, they were 2, 2 and 6 on their party lists
[20:20] <mwhudson> (rongotai: we had russell norman, chris finlayson and annette king)
[20:22] <ajmitch> mwhudson: you mean that isn't usual for an urban seat? :)
[20:22] <mwhudson> ajmitch: i dunno, is it?
[20:23] <mwhudson> wellington central didn't seem _quite_ so extreme iirc
[20:23] <ajmitch> afaik there are 3 for dunedin north as well, with a labour MP taking the electorate, national list mp & green list mp
[20:25] <mwhudson> yeah, does look likeit
[20:26] <ibeardslee> I think I ended up with 4
[20:26] <mwhudson> auckland central had thee too
[20:26] <ajmitch> ibeardslee: you're in the ohariu electorate?
[20:27] <ibeardslee> retard #1 from United Future, the techical expert from National
[20:27] <mwhudson> winning
[20:27] <mwhudson> i can't imagine anywhere would top 4
[20:27] <ibeardslee> Charles from Labour and Gareth from Greens
[20:27] <ibeardslee> ajmitch: yes
[20:29] <mwhudson> "Another one on the road to obscurity. She showed early promise but hasn’t lived up to it. Must do more than ask patsy questions and make the occasional forgettable speech."
