Helen Clark - the anti-Establishment candidateHelen Clark has long been accused of being an Establishment politician. But we're seeing a more radical Helen Clark at the moment - or at least one presenting herself as such. Others disagree - see, for example, Phil Duncan's UN leadership contest: Helen Clark is the ultra-establishment candidate and Helen Clark's UN bid: Maori Party leaders note the would-be empress has no clothes. And, of course, the Maori Party has recently expressed its own discontent with Helen Clark's politics - this is best elaborated on in Morgan Godfery's article, On opposition to Helen Clark's UN bid. Not much according to Sam Gribben - see: Ask not what the Maori Party can do for Helen Clark.
