At right is a screen grab from Beehive.govt.nz, "The official website of the New Zealand Government."

It looks a little banana republic.

A Crown website should be used for straight informational purposes, not as a vehicle for the government of the day to take schoolboy shots at the opposition.

National and Labour both have a record of pushing the limit in using official channels for political purposes. Pity to see it spilling over into this arena too.
