Something must have seeped into the Beehive water over the past 24 hours with conspiracy theories, secret squirrels and trilbies and trench coats all forming part of the great political lexicon, and all watched over by Big Brother.

If you're a Hindi speaker trying to make sense our of our great flag decision, you'll be confused. Well at least that's the view of the man who's learnt politics at knee of his political mentor and conspiratorial professor, Winston Peters.

Mahesh Bindra's virtually unheard of around Parliament, but he's on the payroll as a New Zealand First MP. This is the man who for a time refused to give his occupation before entering the hallowed halls because for some unknown reason he thought it would in some way compromise him. He was a corrections officer.

Now he reckons the Electoral Commission's deliberately worded the flag referendum to curry favour for the new, Kyle Lockwood design, that his boss Peters hates. The Hindi translation of the options apparently says to tick the flag they want to be the new, New Zealand flag. Not the old flag, the new one, a small difference Bindra acknowledges, that could have a big impact on the hundred thousand Kiwis who speak Hindi.

Despite the fact that he's not crediting them with much intelligence, at least if they do go for the new one, their taste is unquestionable. Now that's biased, but it's just an opinion!

And the old flag was flying out the front of Parliament yesterday, alongside the Stars and Stripes which got me thinking. There was clearly an important American in the House that they hadn't told us about? They were keeping the secret under wraps, no one was talking, but the code was finally cracked and they fessed up.

It was the man who lives in shadow of J Edgar Hoover no less, someone who most of us had never heard of, James Comey, FBI chief for the past 18 months. The official line is he's here to "share critical information that will safeguard Americans and New Zealanders from global threats."

More likely he was casing the joint in advance of a possible visit by John Key's golfing buddy Barack Obama, who's keen as mustard to again pit his 18 Presidential handicap against our PM's 11. There just happens to be an unusually long four week recess in July/August that would fit the Presidential bill, although that'll be picked up by the taxpayer.

And there was the review of our spy agencies that if implemented would be the end of the world as know it, if you listen to The Greens. In reality, without it, it most certainly could be the end of the world as we know it!
