National’s corrupt queen of the cover-up: Kristy McDonald QC

“The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes.”

― Benjamin Disraeli

There’s one key indicator that always points to corruption in New Zealand and that particular indicator has again today appeared in a warning glory red-light with Peter Marshall’s appointing of the National Party’s favourite cover-up queen, Kristy McDonald QC to investigate the polices’s involvement with the GCSB’s illegal spying.

McDonald just love’s bent cops, she came to the public’s attention recently whilst working to cover-up the jobs for the “good ol boys” scandal at the REAA. In that case she and another National party lackie, crown lawyer at the time, Sarn Herdson had been behind the hiring of bent cop Jonathan Moss as the REAA’s head of investigations.

The Police Commissioner, Peter Marshall, must be a total fuckwit; to have wheeled McDonald and her “Nelsonian eye” out into the public gaze so soon after the REAA debacle, Marshall obviously does not read much in the way of web content.

Marshall waxed lyrical on McDonald’s legal qualifications, not that they had any bearing whatsoever on his decision to engage her in the first place:

Thick as pig-shit or troppo; having spent a couple of years in the Solomon Islands? New Zealand’s Police Commissioner: Peter Marshall

“Ms McDonald is a senior counsel with more than 30 years’ experience in criminal law, she is a highly regarded Queens Counsel who has been engaged in major prosecutions, so she will provide excellent oversight of the Police work,”

“We can’t put a time-frame on how long this assessment and investigation will take but it will be done as a matter of some urgency.”

Its not McDonald’s 30 years of experience in law that concerns us, its the years of practice and experience she’s had in burying corrupt police behaviour and the Nelsonian eye she is bound to apply to Marshall’s purported “oversight”.

We’re wetting ourselves with anticipation; just what sort of writhing spin will McDonald use this time so as to exculpate this, the latest, in a long run of corrupt police practice. Its no wonder John Keys pocket boy Keith Manch wanted the internet shut down. Manch was of course also Kirsty McDonalds registrar at the REAA, put there by Nathan Guy to assist McDonald with the burial of the moss Scandal. Manch has a magical way with official documents which has assisted Nathan Guy no end in the past;  he is able to make them appear invisible or in fact simply vanish.

Whatever tactic McDonald employs on this occasion, one thing is now beyond any doubt; McDonald’s sudden appearance is evidence enough that the police force and its new Commissioner have been up to no good in the Kim Dotcom case, more “Good Ol Boy” relationships?

Note: its also important that readers look at this more recent post: “Telecom New Zealand, Police, GCSB and Mark William Doyle, a man with a very shady past”.
