Yesterdaze: What are the odds?

On an international day of anonymous gift-giving, James Elliott looks at some anonymous gift-giving of our own and places some bets It’s Valentine’s Day, the day on which we celebrate the bloody beating and beheading of the Roman priest Valentine in 270 AD by sending people anonymous expressions of affection and gifts. It’s basically socially sanctioned stalking, as actively aided and abetted by retailers like florists, chocolatiers and sellers of Hallmark cards. It all sounds like jolly good fun and only a little bit creepy but as any politician will tell you, and as two active Serious Fraud Office investigations into political donations illustrate, the receiving of gifts, anonymous or otherwise, can be quite problematic. Just ask Winston Peters. One of the two SFO investigations relates to claims that NZ First funnelled monetary donations through the secretive NZ First Foundation to avoid public disclosure as required under the Electoral Act. And just to clarify, the foundation’s name is not the “Secretive…
