“Talking points for today are listed below. Please memorise”
Steadfast - have a read of Leviticus 19:33-34 and get back to me. The Israelis live in an old testament world, but only want the laws that favor them to be recognized.
I don't understand this sentence: "The largest shareholder, Amalgamated Dairies, with around a third of the company, is also a company controlled by the Goodfellow family, which is credited with setting up the entity that today is known as Fonterra." ...

If you can beatake them, join them.
The governance of public schools in NZ is the responsibility of the Board of Trustees, not the teachers or unions. They do it on a volunteer basis - perhaps if the Government wanted to be consistent they should offer payments to those volunteers.
Ben - you forgot that the issue was raised by Davis at Select Committee and Sam "forgot" that, and subsequently accused Davis of "politicising" the issue. Disgraceful. The system failed - it required an opposition MP to highlight the issue, rather than the...
Farrar is good mates with Slater, although at times he tries to distance himself from him. They share info - remember the almost synchronised posting about 'someone' who owns a signed copy of Mein Kamf ? And then of course there was the 2008 Election ...
There is money available for those CRL if some roading projects are re-prioritised. Have a look at: http://www.congestionfree.co.nz/
Are you sure about the one less seat if National won the seat in a by election? If Goldsmith won then his list place would be filled by the next on Nationals list wouldn't it?
Chris Finlayson first mentioned the Rodney Harrison / Ahmed Zaoui connection in the House on Tuesday night during the GCSB debate, when he also claimed that a number of lawyers were unhappy with the Law Society's submission.
Dilbert is not a cartoon - it's an illustrated documentary! On the subject of United-Future and Peter Dunne I do find it interesting that Mr Dunne would like us to believe that he was not the leaker of the Kitteridge report - we have to take his word for ...
"I'm really just the Kiwiblog mascot"
I would Dunne to remain in Parliament for the next ten years, simply so that he can be held accountable for signing off the $1.5 billion upgrade of the IRD computer system when it all goes horribly wrong like INCIS and Novopay.
Believe me, I'm holding up five fingers. or If you want me to answer any questions about the number of fingers I'm holding up, please put them in writing. I'm still trying to forget who I sold the fifth one to.
It's worth noting that although the Contact Energy shares dropped significantly, they are only down to the level they were at approx. 3 months ago.
Just remember that Key promised higher standards. We are yet to see them.
The National Party's chief blogger is strangely quiet on this issue - it would seem that he can't even bring himself to defend the (non)actions of Key.
Will Judith Collins now sue Mr Judge? Surely 'He said Ms Collins “knew the truth” and was “just trying to blacken people”' is as defamatory as anything that Mallard and Little said.
Private schools also receive taxpayer subsidies, so what is your point?
Or could it be that prices fell because the retailers were in a desperate grab for customers at unsustainable low prices? That's the way the market works isn't it?
Shearer is showing leadership, not blind loyalty. Loyalty is good, but you cannot be blind to someone's errors, otherwise you are not showing leadership. Key is displaying no leadership and blind loyalty.
I haven't seen such economic wizardry since Rob Muldoon
It's interesting how that according the the right, anything from the National Party that gets into the wrong hands is "stolen", but anything of a similar nature that comes from Labour is "leaked".
In Farrars recent post about ECan there is a small paragraph that deserves further comment: "This is not a reason to keep the Commissioners on beyond the 2013 elections, but it is a reminder that local government is the creation of Parliament, and ...
at least stuff.co.nz has a piece, but the photo feature is a bear falling from a tree in Colorado - obviously way more important!
What is the Minister of Tourism doing about this? hundreds sleeping at Chch airport
Related to neo-liberalism is the unsustainable over-compensation of the C-suite and the financial sector. Have a read at: Forbes.com Overcompensation This is looking at the US situation, but it has parallels in NZ. The link is in no way a leftie site, and ...
Hey Blue, have you forgotten about how National 'forgot' to pay the GST for their broadcasting and so broke the rules. Did they pay that back?
It's ok, Fisiani just wants everyone to be above average.
and that's why the NACT's hate him!
