Sir Robert

Sir,—The immediate future of the National Party as a political force in this country depends on the readiness of the party organisation to recognise and use the financial ability and experience of Sir Robert Muldoon. Labour’s economic policy has been a dismal failure, bringing misery and suffering. By contrast, Sir Robert’s policy puts people in jobs, businessmen in business, farmers on farms. His financial predictions proved correct. Sir Robert has always maintained: “It is the human factor that is vital in political management Economic management is not a matter of textbook and algebraic equations. It is people, their reaction to stimuli, to adversity and to one another.” From one end of New Zealand to the other people are desperate for Sir Robert to be recalled to restore confidence, sanity, security and prosperity. The National Party will continue to ignore him at its peril. —Yours, etc.,

I. J. CUNNINGHAM. November 29, 1987.

Sir, — Congratulations to the St Albans branch of the National Party in having Sir Robert Muldoon to address its meeting. People are obviously tired of the bombastic propaganda of the Government and the drip-feed attempt of the Opposition. We need guidance. Sir Robert did say “you pay your money, you take your chance.” We have done that, much to our sorrow. We need Sir Robert, but he needs a bigger venue next time. — Yours, etc., S. T. SMITH. December 2,1987.

Sir, — Hearts must have been lifted with the stirring address given by Sir Robert Muldoon last Friday. How ironic that this great man should come with Lady Muldoon to St Albans electorate and speak in Christchurch North, both Bert Walker’s old stamping grounds. Both men have a great understanding of New Zealand and its people at home and abroad. At long last people now have hope again for the future of the National Party. There is now a powerful light at the end of the tunnel. — Yours, etc., T. L. MILLAR. December 2, 1987.
