        Pretty sure there’s more concern for the pregnant lady, whose partner just slut-shamed her in front of the nation for no good reason but to cast himself as hero and keep this story spinning ...

        Wow, weeks ago I tipped he was positioning to pull the Mental Health Lever to avoid scrutiny and responsibility. Start the offical countdown....

        Do a DNA paternity test then, if you're concerned Joyce. So much for 'madly in love', in lust & obviously lost. @The_Nationals

        @Beetrooter continues with the smokescreen in an effort to hide his blatant corruption! Wakey, wakey media!

        True but the missed opportunities for real reform, the billions wasted and rorted. #WaterIsLife

        The standards which we suffer do not have to be represented in our politics. James Woolley interviewed on 60 Minutes last week the NZ Prime Minister-she's not very experienced in office but he made fun of her inexperience. My point is, standards will raise; Joyce's, no chance.
