Oh Christian, Christian! Try to live up (or down?) to your name. What some people have to do to pay the rent.

PS. On a more pedantic note: When did the past tense of “to lead” turn to lead? It used to be “led” last time I paid attention.

Having read Kerr/Bray back in his/her Crikey days, it was quite clear that he had a rabid hatred of the Greens that went beyond philosophical disagreements. He appeared to consider them political untermensch undeserving of a place in civil society.

Hearing that he moved on to the Oz was about as big a shock as the sun rising in the morning. Given his past on this site, I can assure AR and dazza that Kerr needs not a skerrick of persuading to follow the Oz’s anti Green line.

Ah, Christian “omg half these numbers are bigger than the average of these numbers!!!” Kerr. Never quite could figure out why Phillip Adams put up with him for so long.

Since he kissed Rupert’s ring, Cur has exemplified the derogatory Oz meaning of his homophone, esp but not only, in scribbling about the Greens. How sad that nothing he opines now can be trusted - he had a nice touch as HillaryB though brittle & surface reflecting.

Oh.. I think Christian Kerr is just towing the News Ltd line. Remember, the editor of the OZ declared war on the Greens when he announced he will ‘destroy the Greens’. This is just another group think mentality from the brown nosed hacks with no balls.

I used to not mind Hillary Bray/Christian Kerr writing for Crikey. But I never ever trusted him writing about the greens, he had such obvious bias about them that it was always disappointing. Since he left for the Oz, he’s gone downhill quite a lot, he doesn’t say anything insightful, he’s just part of the hate/noise machine.
