I peruse a few blogs regularly and had never even heard that there were any rumours. Even if the guy is obviously a bit of a smarmy dick there isn’t much excuse to throw mud. [a further smear is merely deleted] [lprent: Banned for 2 weeks for peddling what...
Wouldn’t you also like to see Green MP’s walking their talk and actually having Solar PV?
Exactly. They are running very scared. The puppetmeister Peters gets much leeway however. Looking at the Leaders of the Parties making up Govt it isn’t hard to understand the sheer incompetence of their minions - many of whom have obviously learned ...
Are there not ways to become more self supporting financially for those that are obviously computer literate, have hardware and internet connections? Proof reading for example? How about using free software to become CAD confident and selling that service?...
Have a guess at the energy required and CO2 produced building the storage for your 2 billion litres.
I’m sure Jacinta doesn’t want any investigations (private or otherwise) into the goings on in her Party. This is the tip of the iceberg apparently...
Well done on gaining a useful qualification. I await the announcement of a Govt job (because private sector bad) with a salary just enough to live on (cos profit bad). Alternatively massive voluntary tax payments. Cos lots of tax good.
Carbon fibre & other oil based products used as a light, strong material making electric vehicles etc. Let’s ban them! Let’s Do This!! FFS - are you sure that your issue isn’t with any “big corporate” regardless of whether they are tied to hydro carbons?
What is inhumane about double bunking MS?
Semantics, fool. Answer the question. Why do some get so uptight about foreign organisations influencing our politics yet kneel down before eg the UN?
So if a NZ citizen is operating on behalf of your foreign organisation it is ok then? And why should we differentiate between a corporate & a charity? They all push their own agenda, and are all potentially as corrupt and self-serving as each other. In the...
“ Make it illegal for foreigners (including foreign businesses and governments) to have any influence in our country.” You mean like the UN, Greenpeace, Oxfam, various American & Australian born Politicians, etc, etc? I could live with that.
Yes, now that Serco is gone we can look forward to ending violence, corruption, suicides etc in Prisons. And more rehabilitation etc - proved by the muster reducing. Much like homelessness, poverty and living in cars has almost ended (judging by lack of ...
I read somewhere that the average is something like 40 convictions before someone ends up in prison. I can’t see them all for merely smoking pot. In fact I’d be surprised if anyone is inside for possession offences on their own. Be interested to see how ...
Or the reportedly 50% of native bush/forest coverage that was burnt off or otherwise destroyed.
I’m sure I remember seeing Shipley part the Hero Parade when she was PM. I guess that doesn’t fit the “cult of Jacinta” narrative so gullibly bought in to by the fans. Maybe just another “Journalist” angling for a job with on the taxpayer.
Are you a nasty bully IRL, or do you save it for the anonymity of your multiple online identities?
I know low - medium income people looking for rentals around Wgtn. It seems that every place that is potentially a student dwelling has gone up by $50 per room this year. Thanks Grant. Does anyone know how many rentals Helen Clark owns now? Used to be 7 ...
Considering the author’s background I’d suggest his own ideological issues are on display more here than National’s. The old saying about interviewing one’s own keyboard comes to mind.
So you won’t/can’t refute the point? Or do you not understand it?
I’m pretty sure she would change her tune if this so called “mass spying” was used to track tax minimisers rather than her mass-murdering friends.
Who/what are the sandflys eco?
Frangible joint is the technical term :) I agree though that there would be huge loads on this even before the “slam dunk” A practical lesson in structural engineering I guess, much as the one you would get when opening a (any) door with a high degree of ...
Yeah, and we should have a special car tax for those cars that in the wrong hands kill the users. Or a sun tax cos melanoma. Or an internet tax because some people write silly things on blogs. Or we could start banning people who can’t sensibly and safely ...
You are a seriously paranoid dude.
How about we look at the predominant income/socio-economic status of those who kill/maim themselves or others on the roads and use that to determine level of punishment?
Yep, nice article. Today is the first day of my precious 2 1/2 weeks with daughters. They live with their mum at the other end of North Island and seeing them walk off the plane yesterday afternoon I had a double take - suddenly at 11 & 13 they are no ...
Why the hell would the 99% of parents who have no problem keeping themselves sober, drug free, out of prison and not killing children be subject to some more state monitoring of their children? The Investment model can almost predict which children are at ...
I think it’s a bad move. I & other parents from our school found it a useful tool - the class teacher was uninterested/incapable/not supported in maths teaching and NS showed this up, giving us the ability to get remedial in. How many commenters in this ...
