Hiya

Been a couple of days as I'v been a bit busy. Last night we had one of our Parliamentary Friends of Arthritis functions which went very well. Going to add a couple of pictures - I don't think the one of me is the most flattering I've had taken but you do get a sense of the occasion.

We were launching a report on chronic pain. The report comes from a survey that was undertaken by Curia research. At the event last night the director of Curia was there - Adrian this will interest you it was David Farrer of Kiwiblog fame. Mark and Maria - he is v rightwing.

On his home page he has a link to a US site which does one of those tests for people - your political compass http://www.politicalcompass.org/

so I did mine

Where David Farrar is +10(right) and -6.5 Social Libertarian

I am, not surprisingly quite left leaning but perhaps a bit more towards the authoritarian than I might have predicted

Economic Left/Right: -4.25 and Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.03
