Going commando

Another invaluable insight into our Members of Parliament from Twitter...

BTW my English come from the Western movie of Indian Chief talk.

He's also a National MP, which comes through loud and clear are Tau gives voice to the usual stuff you'd expect to hear from a National MP. He also comes across as incurious, dismissive and intellectually lazy. If I lived in Te Atatu, he wouldn't be my first choice, never mind what party he stood for, but it may well be that he looks clever compared to folk in that part of town who vote for him.

Still...I have to give him credit for being on Twitter and for being accessible and responsive to anyone. Most of his colleagues aren't. They don't talk to just anyone.
