Going forward ...

If you - as I do - hate the management-speak term "going forward" you should go to a blog called The Standard, and in the post for 7 Sept you'll see a link to Joe O’Connor's wonderful rant which Chris Laidlaw played on National Radio last Sunday. Drop everything and listen - it's wonderful. By the way,  have you heard our politicians use the term? Key has done it without conviction, and another politician whose name escapes me used the phrase 5 times in an interview on Morning Report about 2 months ago. Sigh.
