Risky business
OPINION: In the same way that even a stopped clock is right twice a day, economists sometimes get it right.
But once again they've shown that they are anything but that with Julie-Anne Genter's bizarre outburst of crossing the floor of Parliament and yelling and threatening another politician.
Very occasionally politicians cross the floor of the house to support an opposition party on some matter of principal - not to start a fight.
'JAG' has given new meaning to the term 'crossing the floor'.
Inappropriate behaviour now seems endemic in the Greens.
Think allegations of shoplifting, benefit fraud, migrant exploitation, bullying and some intemperate squawking by the co-leaders.
All far from the true Green Party founded by Jeannette Fitzsimons and Rod Donald which had real mana.
They must be turning in their graves.
