• Trade trumps human rights for Key

  
  The Standard — Authority: 610
  What a strange little editorial  in the Herald today. It’s a typical spin piece that tries to frame John Key’s shoddy behaviour in not meeting the Dalai Lama, despite his promise that he would, as a good thing. The title shows just how willing, desperate even, some are to interpret everything Key does positively ...
