David Parker - Partner Stealing, Lie Spreading, Fraudster

Kiwiblog cleverly allowed Labour MP David Parker a chance to hang himself in public with a post about the electorate in Epsom. Unfortunately Farrar forgot to add the "humour" tag or add a disclaimer about the inaccuracies in the piece.

I expect lawsuits will follow, in fact I hope the Sensible Sentencing Trust does attempt to sue him for the lies in this article.

But I digress, lets look at the lie and then break it down.

Some are also aware Act knew this when they took a large donation from the misnamed Sensible Sentencing Trust and made Garrett Act’s law and order spokesperson.

Complete lies.

Immediately ACT Party Secretary at the time Nick Kearney responded:

This is a lie. I was Party Secretary at this time and was responsible for submitting the party’s donation returns. There was never a donation from the Sensible Sentencing Trust. This lie is perpetuated by Labour consistently as if to say ACT sold that #5 slot of David Garrett to the SST. It is a barefaced lie

The MP in question, David Garrett then replied:

I confirm Nick’s statement that to the best of my knowledge niether SST nor McVicar has EVER given ANY political party a cent, Including ACT. The approach to have me stand for ACT came from Rodney Hide – not McVicar – after the latter said he would not stand for any political party, and Rodney asked if there was anyone else in the organization who knew his onions on law and order issues and could make a speech.

And then the SST replied as well:

I can confirm that from the other side – the Trust cannot and does not make large donations – it does not have that sort of money, and never has. The Trust can accept large donations however

David Parker has outright lied here.

We must remember what type of person David Parker is too. Forced to step down from his portfolios for filing fraudulent returns. He not once sued or attempted to sue Ian Wishart for his claims against him either.

This makes it clear that David Parker has some illegal secrets hidden under his bed.... but he isn't too shy to show off the fact that in his bed he has got the long time partner of iconic NZ musician Chris Knox, himself incapacitated after a stroke. He stole his partner of over 18 years from under his nose while he was lying in bed needing care and support from her.

Parker tried and failed to win the nomination at Dunedin North after a brutal and bloody battle with supporters and party HQ and ran up to Auckland to run in Epsom, a seat he can't possibly win - hence the need to tell lies about his opponents.

David Parker has leadership aspirations. But how can you trust somebody that you can't leave along in your own house in case he steals your money and your wife?
