["David & Jill Stevenson" <djstevo@quicksilver.net.nz>]

The sooner advisers wake up to the wisdom of preventing Michael Cullen  ever appearing before the cameras of the world  to even hint at   " strategies" available to his Government like some King Canute of the financial world the better chance we have of withstanding the financial battering we are headed towards . Even King Canute merely turned back waves not tidal waves. Keep the academics of this Government limited to  sociological issues and absolutely nothing else.. Their smart weasel words will be more effective in that arena even if it merely means they end up talking to themselves while others handle the business of staying afloat  in this country.

         Michael Cullen and his ilk would not learn from a thousand text books what lies between the ears of the George Soros`of this world . They may not be sociological sophisticates but they better read predictabilities and by their sheer muscle create international outcomes  where the Michael Cullens`will always  be obliged to fall into the passive retroactive roles . A reality members of this Government would never have imagined in their lives of petty party politics. We can thumb our respective noses at Alliances all we choose but as a small highly developed country vulnerable to others` influences we isolate ouselves at our peril .
