Personally I've been pretty happy Aus dived in before us. I'm far from
convinced the gains of a pseudo FTA with the US outweigh the losses.
I'm quite happy to see how it pans out for Aus

What utter crap!

If it 'ever' (and I mean ever) got to that then he said that he would
let the NZ public decide by holding a referendum and thereby listening
to the NZ public (which Clark has never done on any other referendum).
Clarks position is that she knows best and is not even prepared to
holding referendum to get the publics opinion.

I never said he would not hold a referendum, what I did say was that
like OZ we could find that we end up accepting US IP laws as part of the
"free trade" agreement, and as OZ companies seem to be, homegrown NZ IT
companies could suffer. So Apple growers or lamb exporters may win his
ear more than IT companies and may loose out.
