Any NZers remember this guy? He seems to be largely despised in New Zealand but I'm finding him an interesting figure, maybe because he was so abrasive and aggressive.

Comments?

I had never heard of the PM Robert Muldoon. The only Robert Muldoon I had heard about was the character on Jurassic Park, but then again I'm not from New Zealand.

There's a documentary about him on YouTube if you're interested.

It might be good to post that for proper context, because most people who've seen Jurassic Park wont be thinking of a Prime Minister but instead a dude with a shotgun.
