The NZ Herald has once again given Moore an avenue to vent and once again I congratulate them for their commonsense attack on this Bill. Shame they don't have the same commonsense when it comes to their bizarre support of "climate change". We live in hope!
This bill is set to pass this week after much stalling by the National opposition and will be in force by January 1 2008.
The coming week is the darkest in our democracy's history because it will mean the end of free speech in an election year.
There are no foreign powers making comments at the death of democracy here, nobody seems to care that this sleepy little once free land in the South Pacific is turning into a bright yellow fascist/communist banana.
Will you care next year when you have to keep your mouth shut?
Its too late baby, its gone.

Moore continues attack on controversial Electoral Finance Bill
11:50AM Sunday December 16, 2007
Mike Moore has continued his attack on the Electoral Finance Bill.
The former Labour Prime Minister has today labelled the piece of legislation as fatally flawed. He says the restrictions in the electoral finance law, promised by the Government to be passed next week in Parliament, are without precedent in the free world.
Mike Moore says the bill is wrong in principle and in substance and will end up doing the opposite of what its authors expected.
The fresh comments come in response to Invercargill mayor Tim Shadbolt's promise he will continue to run ads against funding cuts at Southern Institute of Technology, even if the bill passes and he is breaking the law.
Mike Moore launched a public attack on Prime Minister Helen Clark earlier this year, comparing her to Robert Muldoon.
