Nash and slash

Written by  Milking It

OPINION: Stuart Nash, stripped of his portfolios for big-noting to donors, among other things, will be kept on life support by the PM to avoid a by-election, and, according to one commentator, so he can take the fall when an inquiry on forestry slash goes public.

The damage done by forestry slash during recent storms has made it a red-hot topic.

Left-wing commentator Martyn Bradbury reckons former Forestry Minister, 'The Nashy', prone to bragging and over-sharing, could yet have more to answer for about slash: "Just imagine the s#*t he's told his forestry mates... It will all come out during the slash inquiry and Chippy has to keep The Nashy on until that happens, then cast him out of the Party".
