So, uhh, has the word "bussy" ever meant something other than "boy pussy", I.E ass?

According to screenshots posted to social media, the account posted a photo of Doyle and a child with the caption: “bussy galore”.

What were they thinking?

I think this could be very telling. If this is found to be faked, it will shine a spotlight on the manipulation of the public discourse in NZ politics.

If it is not faked....well the Greens should vet their people much more closely.

If the photo wasn't genuine, you'd expect that to be the first thing the Greens would say in response, surely?

You would think so.....but they may be saving it up for a big reveal.

While their candidate is receiving death threats?
