For political reasons, he breaks the story of Auckland Mayor Len Brown’s affair with a staffer–but Slater himself is a confessed philanderer.
The news item describes his blog as “right wing” but like most Kiwi blogs so described it’s merely soft left. That passes for “right wing” in the NZ media.
Redbaiter over at Trueblue NZ has more on this

I never went to Kindergarten. Obviously had a seriously detrimental affect on my adult psyche. So I’m trying to make up for it.
Seriously, the so called right in NZ is fucked while it is represented by National and its underlings like Slater.
Key too has just taken NZ far left. He has courted popularity, and has now won a surprising amount of support from the chattering classes. A pity that support is wasted on a confused political progressive who has damaged National almost irreparably.
“..a confused political progressive who has damaged National almost irreparably.”
Ought to be Key’s political epitaph. But it won’t be.
Funny thing to this story is the woman involved is the “dragon baby” chick
?
She was in the media not too long ago talking about getting a donor so she could have a baby in the year of the dragon. Very good luck if you are Chinese. Maybe she could have got Lyin Len to help her out.
aaaah…thanks, Pix.
My only comment is that if Cameron Slater is a self-confessed philanderer then where’s the hypocrisy? He wasn’t caught like Len Brown he ‘fessed-up!
He certainly isn’t “right-wing” whether or not that definition still has any sort of meaning other than some sort of historical context.
He ‘fessed up only because it was becoming common knowledge.
Still? He did so without a public airing as Mayor Brown rightfully received.

Nope. It was pretty common knowledge before he fessed up. He simply wanted to manage the message, and merely did so better than Brown.
True. I’ll concede that.
But it still seems an unprincipled thing to do, to attack a man for what he himself is guilty of.
Isn’t that the Left’s SOP in any situation?
Yes indeed.
What sort of PRICK and A LOW DOWN ARSOLE is cameron slater,[he doesn’t deserve
capital letters for the begining of his SHIT NAME] Where the hell does that sort of shit come from anyway. What right has he got to say about Christchurch people???? There are far better people in Christchurch than he’ll ever be, What a bloody SCUM BAG HE IS…as far as I’m concerned he just big “FAT BEACH WHALE” and thats where scum-bags like him begin and end.Gee zuzz I’d “like” to smack him in the face with a trugeon,the only thing is I’d get crushed in the rush……. He should be closed down and sent to hell ……
