This issue has been quietly building. Richard Prebble heads ACT NEW ZEALAND, a political Party which is as far to the right as it gets in New Zealand.

If Australia enters a free trade pact with the US and NZ doesn't...well, let me call my broker and put on some long Aussie $ - short Kiwi $ before I finish the thought...

No nukes legislation should have been dropped a long time ago.

No nukes legislation should have been dropped a long time ago.Thanks for the ping. Looks like economics can accomplish wonders in bringing reality to Ms. Clark & fellow-travelers. There's hope yet for a good working relationship with the US. Invite the nuclear-powered ships ASAP.

,,, you're on to it Todd. Klark is playing everything as close to the centre as she can. If she got tough on welfare and changed the no nukes legislation I'd run out of things to grizzle about a lot sooner.
Hopefully US ships will return as they did pre mid 1980s.

Is Helen Clark using the balls she's been rumored to have? Surely not!

,,, no, she's keeping those for later. Some of this will be resultant from response to polls. Kiwis ain't feeling too secure and that's coming thru to her. Predominantly though, the thought of our factories shutting down and moving to Aussie will have her running for cover. She's been backed into a corner and the walls are closing in. All her feel good policies won't subsitute for real world common sense. She's on a learning curve.

Hopefully US ships will return as they did pre mid 1980s.10-4. I'm starting to realistically look forward to visiting New Zealand. The times they are changing - very much for the better.

,,, we had nuclear propelled and armed ships here from the US up to the mid 1980s. USS Truxton was one of the last ships I remember coming here.

Well I hope Kiwi's get what they want. And they need to vote her socialist arse out of office. What's the unemployment rate in NZ right now?
