Paul Henry has played the race card. It may have been a joke, but it was just as funny as when Hone tried it. Like, not.
The TVNZ Breakfast host asked John Key if Sir Anand was actually a New Zealander. He then asked the Prime Minister if someone who looked more like a New Zealander would be the next Governor General.
By gosh, Henry has a point. What does a real New Zealander look like? Given that we are denied the choice of even calling ourselves "New Zealander" on the census, I suddenly wondered if we might be suffering a National Identity Crisis.
Is a New Zealander some-one you cannot bring home to Hone?
I canvassed a few of my neighbours, and they did seem to be mostly white. They were also mostly woolly, and to be frank, sheep-like. Like the PC crowd that will no doubt bleat about this. Naughty Paul Henry. Baaaaa. Baaaad. Baaaaad.
Ooh err, I think I'll join them.
