Coalition Email Leak

Well, I know what key, if it had happened and I'd released the emails, there would have been a very brief conversation with key. And I know a minister that he basically said this sort of stuff too. I'm going to fire you at the end of this conversation, but first I would like to know why the F did you do that? And then someone would explain it and then they would be fired. So I also have to say that I worked in coalition with Te Ururoa Flavel, Tariana Turia. Peter Sharples, Peter Dunn, and also Rodney Hyde when he was a minister. You just never behave like this. You know, I think of Peter Dunn, mutual respect. And so if we had some emails were going out, we'd have a talk about them or our officials would. And the same applied to you in your dealings with coalition people. So it just beggars belief. that this sort of thing happened, and I really do believe that Luxon is right. It's putting politics in election year ahead of the public interest, because there will be times, and you're the expert on foreign policy, not me, but I had plenty of sensitive discussions which were... be informed and developed when I was a minister, you often took a contrarian approach and said, well, what about this and how about that? And I don't know, I think that this could be the better approach, teasing out the various issues. And if all that contrarian stuff is released in an email when policy is being formed and a stance by the government is being has been taken, it looks pretty untidy. So I'm just dismayed at this sort of stuff.
