Exactly. Required to accompany, she tells them where to go. It is highly likely she would also have been warned after the initial refusal that failing to accompany would result in arrest, yet here we are.
Resisting arrest is the most flagrant issue here. From a minister of the Crown. The Justice Minister, no less. Sure, a driving mistake was made but to then physically refuse or challenge the police is an affront to the nation. Good riddance.
This may be the first time s103 2a of the Sentencing Act is imposed - If the court that sentences an offender convicted of murder to imprisonment for life is satisfied that no minimum term of imprisonment would be sufficient to satisfy 1 or more of the ...
New Roy Morgan out.. "National Party support up in October; now well ahead of potential Labour/ Greens alliance after successful overseas trips for PM Key During October support for National rose by 6.5% to 48% now clearly ahead of a potential Labour/ ...
Unemployment has fallen to the lowest level in almost eight years, as the economy creates more than 10,000 new jobs a month. Official figures show the unemployment rate dropped to 4.9 per cent in the the September quarter, the first time it has fallen ...
Some questions - Wealth is a representation of the control of resources, but if the world's resources were divided more equitably amongst the global population wouldn't that lead to an accelerated and unsustainable depletion of said resources? Peak ...
"...at its finest"? Gee...thanks...wanker. Although I'm just stating a position, not trying to create a target.
We have half of our advertising in peak time and I instructed our media broker to avoid CL simply because I can't stand the guy and his advocacy. The Cost per TARP may now be economical so we will review our advertising with TV3 and the time slot. They ...
Cue a post and one thousand comment thread about judicial corruption. What with centre-right governments being elected around the world the left can't take a trick at the moment.
"Labour are going to win the UK election. Fact"
The ratecard, or retail cost for each program, is based on achieving a certain TARP (Targeted Audience Rating Point). If TV3 sell Campbell Live with a TARP value of, let’s say 7%, and it falls under that then they have to compensate advertisers with ...
Goff FTW!
Here are the worst performing seats and the figure represents the drop in percentage points of party vote: ... Here is New Lynn’s result: New Lynn -1.52% How did you calculate that without the Special votes? New Lynn 2011 Labour party vote = 12,462 New ...
A massacre! 3.5% growth and 5.6% unemployment, considering the worst recession since the 30's and a $40bn earthquake, was always going to be hard to beat, but focusing on shit that doesn't matter has also taught the left a painful lesson. I fear for the ...
Yeah, but they know that 4.5% is coming, with the kicker that employers will probably offset wage increases against their own contributions.
A discussion around the lunch table of a few blue collars at my firm indicated they would be unhappy at being forced into Kiwisaver and could not bring themselves to vote Labour again for this reason alone. I suspect this would not be an isolated view.
Household Labour Force Survey out next Wednesday. Probably the most significant statistic in the minds of voters, and final one before the election. Consensus is for a drop in unemployment from 6.0% to 5.8%. Consensus or lower could see a strong election ...
Two months out from the election in 2011 Roy Morgan had the closest poll to the actual result (although their NZ First number was way out) - Roy Morgan 12-25 Sep, 2011- National: 51 (47.3 Election night) Labour: 30.5 (27.5) Green: 11.5 (11.1) Act: 1.5 (1.1...
"Yes, in so much that..." He said something after yes.
Yeah, I mean it's not like there's yet another new poll showing mid 20's support that would demand every day is maximised to try and win the election, and minimise any long term damage that could eventuate from a such a trouncing. Campaigning is overrated ...
Here is a table of tax collected by year (download Excel file) - http://www.ird.govt.nz/aboutir/external-stats/revenue-refunds/tax-revenue/ It shows tax revenue as being - 2009 - $49.0b 2010 - $46.0b 2011 - $46.8b 2012 - $49.2b 2013 - $53.8b
Not necessarily. Water scarcity in big food-producing nations like China is worsening, and many farmers are increasingly tempted to shift production from food to bioenergy, a popular option to cut emissions of climate-changing greenhouse gases. Climate ...
Yes, but China still faces hurdles in large scale dairy, particularly with disease, water and arable land - ...For a sector, which is still plagued by biosecurity threats including foot and mouth disease, that is a definite need. There was a major outbreak...
So we have Cunliffe and Chris Carter writing letters on behalf of Donghua Liu; Rick Barker going to the trouble of visiting his cement factory in China; Damian O'Connor giving him residency against advice - and Labour get nothing from it. Seems like a raw ...
Might be kinda hard to provide incontrovertible proof Karol. Who keeps a cheque stub from 7 years ago, and even a bank statement won't show who received the payment, which is what the next line of defence would be. And the sentiment from this mornings ...
So Liu confirms the donation to Labour, so why wasn't it declared, and if the party can find no trace then who embezzled it?
E-files are usually searchable by multiple letters in the subject. I certainly know to change the parameters if the first search doesn't yield a result. "Donghua" or "Dong" or even the typo "Lui" would surely have been considered if trying to prevent a 9.5...
Forcing those to save who cannot will also condemn them to another term in opposition.
Late payment for services rendered. No wonder they don't want to know him. Four years to pay his debt.
Liu wasn't a constituent as he wasn't a citizen or permanent resident.
It looks "derelict" because a tarpaulin has been strung up to protect a crime scene? There's long bows but you're drawing this one from one side of Auckland t'other.
