Gordon Campbell on the RWC, and the Operation Burnham inquiry debacle

Gordon Campbell September 23, 2019 0

Last week’s cross-examination demonstrated that the NZDF had consistently misled its Ministers (and the wider public) for years, over the impact of our activities in Afghanistan

Gordon Campbell on our suicide rates, and Prince Andrew

Gordon Campbell on Defence spending, Alabama, and Dolly Parton

Gordon Campbell December 14, 2017 0

Gordon Campbell on the new Pike River agency, and the air strike wing

Gordon Campbell November 21, 2017 0

Gordon Campbell on the Navy’s dealings with Fat Leonard, and Twin Peaks

Gordon Campbell May 23, 2017 0

Oversight at any level of performance is not New Zealand’s strong suit… The Navy has now gone one step beyond. It won’t even ask itself whether it did a good job.
