    The argument about definitions doesn't actually solve anything, but it
    is amusing to see Nick Smith's gyrations and meaningless protests at
    being taken at his word - the question that needs answering is just
    what NAtional will do this year? Will they spend any money at all on
    cleaning up our rivers and lakes? At this stage itseems that by the
    time of the election we will be still worse off

    More to the point Rich. What did Labour ever do about the problem when
    it first raised it's head early this century?
