Mr English, You made comment about how South Canterbury people should be grateful to the Government...This should not only apply to Sth Canty people...you have many many investors in your own Electorate as well as all over NZ. And I understand that SCF paid the Government One million dollars to be part of that scheme! So why a comment that makes us all feel guilty! At least we were saving for our retirement!!

Mr Bill...........why is it that the sth.canterbury investors r reluctant to thank the tax payers of our beautiful country? They r costing myself, my wife and my children too much it seems,yet they still remain ungrateful. I amanhonest person and i find their lack of concern over this debacle to be totally dishonest. In fact i have to say that i resent being treated this way & its come to light that most of n.z do also..For those investers reading this i advise you to swallow your pride & unanimously apoligise for your attitude & even though its too late, show some form of gratitude. In conclusion i find your lack of positive actions abhorent....The rest is up to you.
