Prime Minister John Key was forced to back-pedal this week after telling Parliament the international ratings agency Standard & Poor's inferred that a credit downgrade was more likely under a Labour Government.

It turned out the agency never said that and they issued a statement that said as much.

Political reporter Patrick Gower spoke to Firstline this morning.

This is just looney lefties trying to make mileage out of something that in reality is nothing. labour and its cronies are resorting to their usual tactics of character assasination. It is high time they realised that most NZers have had enough of their cynical bull. It is high time the nasties left over from the Clarke/Cullen regime moved on - then and only then might Labour gain some credibility with ordinary NZers - whos' votes will count on election day. God forbid whay will happen in this country if Labour ever got back to power any time soon.
