There was no point in asking State Homie John Key whether Kiwi sheilas are promiscuous.

It would seem he's only ever had eyes for one, Bronagh who he began courting in the early 80s and showed little interest in anything else.  

In fact so engrossed was he with her that he even forgot what position he took on the divisive Springbok tour in 1981, even though way back then he claims he had designs on the Prime Minister's job.

Remember that was a time when virtually every student in the country was out waving a placard on one side or the other.

But not the romantic Homie who does have a layman's view of the promiscuity of Kiwi women. There's no evidence, he says, that they're any more loose than their sisters abroad.

The Homie was responding to the outrage caused by the man he could be required to share a political bed with in the future, the Conservative leader Colin Craig, who, like the PM, has stacks of cash.

Craig, who it's been said likes his workers on their knees at least once a day, said New Zealand women don't deserve taxpayer funded contraception because they're the most promiscuous in the world. One would have thought that's exactly why they need to take precautions.

Certainly his view hasn't washed with Prissy Peter Dunne, the Tory's coalition cobber who as a young Catholic lad probably thought promiscuity was part of a confessional penance. Say two Our Fathers, Three Hail Marys and go forth and be promiscuous twice, if only!

But he's modern enough to be a twit with tweets. He twittered that Colin Craig's view of our women was nutty and served warning to the State Homie that it'd destroy National if it hitched itself to the Conservatives saying they're extreme and nutty.

And the prissy one's speaking from experience, saying no party needs extremists like Gordon Copeland and Larry Baldock who ditched Dunne and went off to form the Kiwi Party which like it's namesake, was rarely seen and at the last election, failed to fly!
