Lickspittle Herald Watch, part i
Transport Minister on the buses already proclaims the breathless New Zealand Herald, welcoming Steven Joyce, a guy no one's ever heard of, to his new portfolio.
Later in the article it expands on the headline with the following revelation: "Mr Joyce volunteered that he had just ridden the Northern Busway in recent days and had a positive experience."
Well fuck me.
It subsequently transpires that this was the trip in question, one-way from the city to the North Shore, was the first Mr Joyce has taken in a long time (in living memory perhaps).
Now with the Crown Limo at his service I doubt he'll be venturing forth on public transport again for a while.
But yes you read it in the Herald first: "New, really rich, Transport Minister caught bus once"

Don't worry DC, only 8 years and 350 odd days to go of the National-led government.
What no Black Caps coverage? Aussie are 152/7 and I am not moving for fear of jinxing any success (probably jinxed by this comment now).
