And ruthless behind the scenes. Were it not evil I would only admire her skilled manipulation of the institutionalised establishment paedophilia investigation which would bring down the establishment if it ever went ahead. Her so far hidden masterstroke was to employ Judge Goddard and pay her £1/2 million per year when her New Zealand salary was £180,000 per year. This for a judge rated as the 63rd judge out of the 63 NZ judges rated for their efficiency. Compare this with our most senior judges salary of approx. £244,000. My personal opinion is that she has far more skill at self promotion than Osborne and she will wipe the floor with him when the time comes.
