The second, released to the media on 4 November 2008, just before the New Zealand election, gave English’s views on Barack Obama. He is heard on the tape saying: “I’m a bit worried about this whole Obama and Europe things, just because there’s a limited effectiveness in being moralistic about international relations and Europe has turned out to be particularly ineffective even in its own backyard.” “And the US can argue over-do it (sic) and Bush should have put a different window dressing – there still needs someone willing to pull the trigger.” |
