Greetings! Welcome to Keeping Stock.

If the forces of cyberspace have brought you here, then welcome! After spending an increasing amount of time in the blogsphere of late, I've decided that it's time to have my own presence. The General Election is now not much more than a year away, and if the Labour Government manage to push through the Electoral Finance Bill in its current form, this may be the only place where one can safely and legally criticise. New Zealand's mainstream media are strangely silent about this obnoxious peice of legislation, so it's time for the man or woman in the street to leave the safety of the silent majority - that's the theory, at least!

What can you expect from me? I have opinions, and I'm not backwards in expressing them. I'm deeply disturbed by the course that the Clark Labour-led government has taken New Zealand, and I want to see the back of them in 2008, or sooner! I'm not averse to a good, old-fashioned arguement. Work commitments will limit me to some degree, but I hope to post most days. It won't all be politics, especially when there is a Rugby World Cup to be won in a few weeks! Likewise, where there's a news item of interest, I'll have my ten cents worth.

Once again, welcome, and do visit again!
