Goooooood Morning Kabul ! Finally UNDP has a GAY solution to Hamid Kharzai's corruption problem! Allahu Akbar !



God does have a sense of humour!

Hamid Kharzai just walked out of his private offices after a long meeting with his new gay anti-corruption Advisor from New Zealand, Mr. Chris Carter. He walked towards his Chief of Cabinets office, smiling open his door and screamed - "allahu akbar - why haven't you told me that there is another way to haven other than corrupt money? allahu akbar !"

Maybe what is in the second page of secret briefing at Nr.10 which was accidentally revealed by Andrew Mitchell yesterday, was the proposed British solution to Kharzai's sickness.

The only thing though is that maybe the New Zealanders doesn't understand the United Nations rules that clearly state that: - "anyone who is hired by United Nations at any capacity has to give up all his public or private functions and opt out of any political party prior to engage into UN business".

But hey if Helen Clark is still a member of International Socialist what the heck - who cares about a NZ MP from Te Atatu.






“Uncle Helen turning UNDP into a cove of corrupt NZ labour politicians”

I am sure the good folk at UNDP Watch are looking forward to the arrival of uncle’s close confidant Chris Carter.

Above is a headline I noted on their most excellent blog, complete with the delightful picture on the left.

At the weekend, UNDP Watch linked to a couple of stories noting the prospective arrival of former Liarbour MP , the credit card abusing Chris Carter.

The blog also linked to a post from here. There was a fair debate in the comments underneath.

Thank you guys, you are welcome. They asked:

Is Helen Clark turning U.N.D.P. into a ultra left wing cove for NZ Communists??

Well, who knows? But now that Darren Hughes was had the police inquiries concerning the sex allegations against him dropped, it does raise the prospect of him making a threesome with Clark and fellow gay Chris Carter. Unlike the allegations of certain others close to Uncle, there won’t be any travel restrictions against him!

In the meantime, Chris Carter continues to provide much entertainment. I am sure he will provide much copy for UN Watch and UNDP Watch when he makes it to New York.

Expelled MP likely to take up job at UN

CLICK HERE FOR STORY ON STUFF.CO.NZ

Chris Carter

UN BOUND: Expelled MP Chris Carter is set

to take up a job with former NZ Prime Minister

Helen Clark at the UN.

--

Axed Labour MP Chris Carter looks set to take up a job with his old boss, Helen Clark, at the United Nations before the end of the year.

The independent MP has just returned from a three-week trip to New York where he said he had positive meetings over working at the UN. "I had some very interesting and productive interviews, so we'll see."

If Carter does take up a job at the UN, he will join former PM Clark, who is the administrator of the UN's Development Programme.

Carter said nothing was confirmed. "Until it's in the hand, it's not in the bag."

If the role is confirmed, Carter said it was likely he would leave to take up the job before the November 26 election.

However his departure would not cause a by-election as it is within the six-month threshold.

Carter said he "had no intention" of causing a by-election anyway.

"As tempted as I was to stick it to Mr Goff, I care more about Labour than that."

Carter said the role would not be working in Clark's team but it would be at the UN.

Carter was expelled from the Labour Party in October last year. The Labour Party council ruled that Carter had brought the party into disrepute by acting in a misleading manner that was likely to foment internal discontent and encourage external ridicule.

He was expelled from the Labour caucus in June after he sent an anonymous letter to members of the media saying a coup was being planned against party leader Phil Goff. But when he was named as the source of the letter he took two months' stress leave.

He was the first MP expelled by the party since John A Lee in March 1940.

At the time of his expulsion Carter, who represented the Auckland seat of Te Atatu, said he would remain in parliament until the next election as an independent MP.

Helen Clark talking to Chris Carter about his book


Former Labour MP Chris Carter says former Prime Minister Helen Clark has been talking to him about the book he is planning to write about his time in her Government.

Speaking today on TV3’s “The Nation”, he said Ms Clark had phoned him yesterday “to discuss the book and we talked about resources and the way I'd do the book.”

“She's not going to help me write it, but she’ll no doubt be a critic of it, but I'd expect no less from her,” he said.

Mr Carter goes before Labour’s New Zealand Council on Monday to face possible expulsion from the party over his comments earlier .this year about leader, Phil Goff.

He said he planned to fight the expulsion.

“I'm going to make a strong case about yes I stuffed up,” he said.

“Yes I did an inappropriate thing, but hey Richard Prebble called David Lange mentally unbalanced, you know Phil Goff and Annette King tried to roll Helen Clark, none of them were kicked out.

“I don’t want to have my membership taken off me.

“I’ve spent 20 years in the Labour Party, I've worked very hard to fight it, I'm absolutely fighting it, I'm fronting up, and you know I've never been a person afraid to front up

Mr Carter said he wants his lawyer Deborah Manning to replace him as Te Atatu MP when he resigns at the next election.

He described her as a “young Helen Clark.”

But he denied her claims made in a series of calls to news media that he had been on suicide watch after he was expelled from Labour’s caucus.

“The suggestion that I was mentally sick is not true.

“The statement that I was exhausted and stressed is certainly true and my actions reflected that, they were irrational, they were ridiculous and stupid.”

But he maintains that Mr Goff cannot win the next election for Labour.

He accused him of continuing to fudge on issues like GST and Paul Henry and of being a figure form the 80s.

Mr Carter also talked about his close relationship to Helen Clark.

“I think that Helen was a person that was quite well known to the public, but there are aspects of her personality, her humanness and her humanity which I think a lot of people didn’t see,” he said.

“When Gottlieb (Braun-Elwert) her mountain climbing guide died in the hut (near Lake Tekapo) with her you know that had such a profound effect on her, and she wept, she was profoundly affected by that for weeks and months afterwards.”

Mr Carter said he had no idea what he would do when he left Parliament but he was really interested in journalism and “I might become a journalist”.
