“The new Government will need to look at this decision and this law, and decide whether they need to reform it to encourage democracy and advocacy, rather than discourage it". -Dr Russel Norman This is another issue where Ardern could say her Government is...
Helen Clark is constantly putting her oar in. Some in Labour are sick of it. With technology and Ms Simpson, she doesn't have to be in the country to rock the cradle.
Hosking.
“...I didn’t realise it was this bad.” -Phil Twyford. This is double-speak for not following through on the promises Labour campaigned on. If Mr Twyford had invested more time in investigating and analysing the real data, rather than going down the ...
It's looking likely that Winston is favouring a deal with a Labour-led government. In the event that Winston does go in with the Labour/Green bloc, with their diametrically opposed philosophies (three ways), in no time at all they will implode and NZ will ...
Jacinda could always do a captain's call.
It depends what Michelle studied for. Was it for an occupational class where skills are needed?
I agree with you. We have family living in New York. They are seriously concerned. Along with the 78% in NY, they did not vote Trump.
If you really want to, you'll find out.
Not comparing Jacinda with anyone. However, since you mention John Key - he did have more years in life, international, and business experience before joining politics. Jacinda has only ever been a student, then virtually straight into policy and politics....
Whether Paula is right or not, I'm more inclined to say Jacinda doesn't yet have the mental capacity to pull the country together. That's not to say she'll never have it. It will come with time, experience/s and wisdom. I can't see her sitting on her hands...
Typical of Greens/Labour envy politics.
As commented above, John Campbell has overcooked this story. If he had done some research into the back story of this person and her partner, he may have thought twice before taking the the story to air.
I recently worked with a global recruitment company that had a large business division that specialised solely in recuitment for the trades, labourers etc. Of all the divisions in the company, this one had the most challenges in finding NZ-based people ...
Jobs are everywhere.
A better measure is the median house price. The average is affected by the squillion dollar properties at the top (which have always been there relative to the times). The average is obviously also affected by the lower priced properties, but not to the ...
So what will Labour do, put it all back to how it was? Semantics, I know, but the second and third bullet points seem to be one in the same - I stand to be corrected if that's not right.
I used to work for one of these banks in Lending. We were constantly assessing risk, especially in light of the events and outcomes of the GFC. Since that time, the banks have really tightened up. What the banks have done is just BAU - nothing unusual ...
I've just shown this to my 60yo brother-in-law who has been a farmer since the year dot, carrying on from his family before him. He nearly popped an artery when he saw this - the majority of the farmers think the Greens are a joke. His opinion. I don't ...
Prime Minister will be too much like hard work for the wily Winnie. He'll be after Minister of Foreign Affairs, or a plum overseas posting. Anything that involves travel up front, the finest in beverage and food (in that order), and the glamour lifestyle. ...
There's an elephant in this particular room. Has anyone asked the question of the young mum why did she have another baby while living rough? And where is the dad? If she was thinking of wee Mereana she should have told HNZ. The baby's place is with the ...
I take your point. However, the Greens have become distracted by other issues to such a degree that their lack of focus undermines their original purpose for being.
The Greens will consume and shrink Labour. I can't understand why Labour had to do this - it's not going to enhance them in anyway whatsoever. As for the Greens - I have voted for a Green MP in the past and would do so again if they were standalone, stayed...
I predict another party will emerge to offer voters an alternative to the Lab-Greens coalition.
Not much to viewers, because there aren't many.
at what age do you classify people as 'oldies'?
Annette and Carmel can't count. The $11m apartment should appear at four. $4m net after the old apartment was sold (and on which a tidy profit was made). But why let the facts get in the way of a good story, eh?
Gareth Morgan is a nutter. The Morgans are well-known for their attitude of entitlement in Queenstown - the biggest burn-off for years was on Sam Morgan's property in October 2014. The Morgans did not give a toss, but an apology was eventually made. We ...
I hope he took a selfie on the way down.
Andrew Little is out of his depth. He has little gravitas in Australia. He wouldn't know the meaning of diplomacy or how to work it. If Helen Clark couldn't do anything to stop this policy in 2001, what makes Mr Littlle think he can get a different result?
Best case scenario, only 8% are listening (if that).
