Instead of the $20 million in additional funding promised by Labour ahead of the election it got kore - nothing.

This "kore" is longer than the ordinary sleeve, so long in fact that a man with his hand inside is rendered helpless.

I ordered by pointing at a photo in the menu and using a phrase I had learned from my tape: kore okudasai -this, please.

For Kore they have called her, and Malkah, and Betulah, and Persephone.

At last they throw the torches into the river, crying, Ha, Kore!
