Often????? Sad. It's a cesspit of malevolence racism and misogyny. I'd be ashamed to go again after my brief period of attempting to offer alteranative opinions there . Either you're morally deficient or a voyeur .OO.
True, and the effects may be locked in for a very long time given that the 'conveyor belt' may take more than a millenium to complete a cycle of circulation.
Thanks for the useful explanation, Bill. To be honest I'm not at all surprised that the articles focussed on Trump's fatuosity rather than the reasons behind the erratic weather events that USA is having. For anyone interested there's a very good free ...
Well you can carry on liking her on your own. I'm off again.
Arrived for the first time in months for a browse just in time to to see CV banned on his first day back in months for for inaccurately representing his banning (gagging?) order.... [......Banned until a month after the election. – weka] I'm a great fan of...
Patronising tosh........mate. Up to and including 6.42 pm. Your notion of 'history' is akin to an un-nuanced ' wikipedia overview' Have a gander at 1984 if you have time and stamina then read his discussion of the language of propaganda at http://www....
Gael, the headline & table says " (annually) SINCE 9/11..." so what is your point? BTW have a look at Gordon Campbell's current post on the subject of the ban on muslims. http://gordoncampbell.scoop.co.nz/2017/01/30/gordon-campbell-on-nzs-silence-over-...

Carolyn_nth Read what Wilson wrote. He referenced many Key-did-nothing concerns within his piece but points out how important in today's world of unravelling societies Key's legacy of a 'sense of wellbeing' is. Disagree with him if you will, but accept the...
Cause he said they told him on their doorsteps?
True that. This time round, though, the nooses of many crises are grown a lot tighter and an incompetent clown may, counter intuitively , be better for us all than an apparent competent who seeks merely to buttress the creaking timbers of the establishment...
True that. This time round the nooses of crisis are grown a lot tighter though and, counter intuitively, a clown without a clue may be less harmful to the commonweal than a seeming competent who can buttress creaking establishment timbers well enough to ...
IMO If Trump wins a single term will find him out. Clinton will the continue "moderate" right Obama-esque approach that currently bedevils the US. I'd rather see the Democrats denied by honest votes for Stein. I labour under the (deluded?) belief that a ...
In case there's any doubt, yes print media can be politically biased against the left. No doubt a study of radio and TV political reportage might produce a similar conclusion as well.Look at this study of Corbyn coverage in the UK: http://www.lse.ac.uk/...
Hear hear! OAB nails it.
If you accept the premises of the article you link to. Many commentators take issue with the writer.
Alwyn, Stick to the point if you want to be useful for at least some part of your sorry life. The 'increased' health vote is actually a shrinking health budget in the context of our aging / poorer/ more needy population. In keeping with the objectivity you...
"acting like USA carpetbaggers" evokes your flip slur that "the only one who fits your description" an intelligent, well-informed, very hardworking MP who just happens to be an American immigrant and is clearly not in politics for the gravy-train. What a ...
Lanth,I disagree. Questioned, people I speak with recognise the need to live at a lower consumption level and I believe that would be true of the wider community. In the same way, when questioned about taxes a clear majority of NZers expressed themselves ...
and snider.
Snide
Slapdown. Counterfactual?? Hah. Just a rant, an opinion- fest. You use the fat word btw, obesity's realities are often quite different, and scarily, quite often out of sight.
Eh? Aye aye, Cap'n.
As with other folk I know who voted, the vote was undertaken to try to ensure that the least bad option topped the list. Sadly we failed. I still intend, as do they, to vote for the awful flag we currently have, rather than for the commercial logo ...
And to express & publish opinions disagreeing with the complacent heavy-handedness of the Toryboys' Mesomorph Club
Arsehole-of-the-day award. Congrats.
So am I, especially ones about double bunking prisoners so they get their (just?????) desserts through sexual violence.
For much of her nine long years she presided over a government that, among other failures, obliged us to pay for the pollution of farmers who wouldn't pay even a smidgen towards the research to overcome their methane problem. Remember that prat Adern (...
I find the stealth around these matters extremely concerning, and the level of opacity generated by dry reportage on largely embargoed discussions and documents makes it very difficult for the average person to understand exactly what was agreed by whom, ...
Is that supposed to be some sort of apologia for the appallingly self-interested stance of this government? At least have the honesty to acknowledge the chicanery being practised upon us as our international reputation is degraded yet again by the cynical ...
Recent research from UK iirc demonstrated with a study of children that cutting sugar while maintaining the calorific value of diet demonstrated quite clearly that SUGAR itself was a contributor to serious ill-health. Can't provide link sorry.
