Hollow
Men: National's Advanced Knowledge Of The Brethren
Campaign
After a weekend of silence on the subject of
Nicky Hager's "The Hollow Men: A Study In The Politics Of
Deception." outgoing National Party Leader Don Brash has
been interviewed several times this morning on his reaction
to the book. His response to the key "Smoking Gun"
allegation implicit in the 24th of May email addressed to
him from the Exclusive Brethren is the same as that of
National Leader in waiting John Key – namely, he didn't
open the email. See... Brash
Responds – I Didn't Read The Email Either! [1] .

Scoop
Video: Interview With Tonga's Most Controversial
Man
Tonga's pro-democracy leader, Clive
Edwards, is one of the island nation's most
controversial figures. He's hated by Nobles, loathed by
many, his views banned by Tongan authorities. In the wake of
riots that tore through Tonga's capital Nuku'Alofa, where
mobs ransacked and burned the town to destruction, Edwards
called for the government to relent to pressure and open the
parliament to an open and free election. Scoop here
publishes an extended interview with the Tongan people's
representative.
