Thank you for this comment. Both your key points are very well made and relevant here. I don't ever remember a vigil or public protest for victims who also happened to be sex workers or homeless. People of colour who are murdered are seldom held up as ...
After all, once capitalism arises in a civilisation its always been destroyed Can you give me an example please?
I don't know how relevant it is but she knew she was leaving her charity role well before she quit and I can't imagine she didn't have something in the pipeline. I think she poached the info knowing she was out the door anyway. It will be interesting to ...
Legally, we have to allow them home. No way around it nor should it even be considered.
That's kinda why they're here. They're kiwis...
Yes, I've seen mostly positive reports too. I know a lot of people struggled during lockdown (note: not the current managed isolation) but it was wonderful to see community efforts to help those with mental health and/or addiction issues go out of their ...
The secret is simple, they form stable families, they make sacrifices to gain an education, and they have the personal discipline to build careers and incomes. In the Nigerian community the story goes that a teenager finishing high school is given a ...
Appreciate the rundown. Yep, she's out for whistleblower protection because she didn't make a protected disclosure to appropriate authorities. Even if she claimed she handed it to Walker on the grounds it was a PD she should have made a PD statement, not ...
Hi LFD, I have dyslexia and use the Grammarly addon for chrome which works here. It's also available for other platforms too. I only use the free version and it suits my needs. Hope it helps. The chrome browser extension is here And for other platforms etc...
Does having the data sent to her private email put the breach outside of political protection do you know? I thought I saw somewhere that there's a distinction between in-house and out when it comes to what protection is afforded. You kind of have to view ...
Yeah, I think both options are feasible. She could be pointing to the trust as a distraction from where she really got the info or it could have come from someone inside/close to the trust. It wouldn't be hard to get the info out without triggering any ...
Now, this is getting curly. According to the stuff article: ‘“The breach which has been admitted by Ms Boag was of an email that was sent to her personal account. As an administrative resource, Ms Boag has never had access to any clinical or patient data ...
Read through this article in the NZHerald on the latest escapee from managed isolation. I think the reporter copy and pasted all his notes without proofreading anything. Double-ups and random topic changes mid-page. It's a bit disorientating, to say the ...
Yep. The legality thing is tricky in this situation given the protections politicians seem to have. Ethically the situation is black and white. I was thinking about it last night/this morning and agree that her main concern would be to avoid charges which ...
Yeah, you could be right, Frida. I simply meant that as CEO she probably didn't have to hack the system (or get anyone else to) in order to get at the info. In this way, it offers her plausible deniability but I agree that it probably wasn't info she would...
Is there a source though? I thought the whole story was made up?
It could be worse... they could vote new conservative 🤮
"And why to her private email address?" What if she sent it to herself? She could claim she was doing some legitimate work from home so sent the docs to her private email thus being able to claim an 'oops' moment rather than intentionally stealing data. (...
It will be interesting to see how that unfolds. Yes, the private email thing is odd and I'm wondering if by having the info sent to her private email instead of work email then it would be a different legal process to get evidence of wrong-doing (as in, ...
Thanks for the link. Interesting book. I started reading Picketty's 'Capital in the 21st Century' but can only do so in small bites, and Paul Mason's PostCapitalism - far more digestible but didn't deliver what I was looking for; perspectives and thinking ...
Agreed Weka. Even if Boag had a work-based right to the info she still would have been bound by confidentiality in her contract.
Maybe not. The investigation is going to continue despite the 'sacrifice'.
This is such an excellent article LPrent. I've always been concerned with the idea that you can run a country like a business and have a successful long-term outcome. I assumed my concern was affected by my limited understanding of global economics, or ...
It was the second time that week, I had stood on a metaphorical landmine of my own making. Dude, I have my foot in my mouth so much I brush my teeth with Lamisil 😁 Kia Kaha to you and yours. To you too mate :)
I'm sorry for being a dick G. My outburst was uncalled for.
Also, I'm not ignoring the rest of your comment. I'm taking some time to consider it is all.
Thanks for your reply Rosemary Might I politely suggest that your experiences may have led you towards forming an opinion on how the provision of housing for 'the needy' might be done with more efficiency and compassion? I'm reading plenty of dismissal ...
One of the hurdles to overcome is the comfort of some, as so eloquently expressed by you (warmth, insulation, heating, security), so that Maria and other collateral damage victims of the housing racket can get out of cold, damp sheds. What I am getting at...
Thanks, Rosemary.
Thank you for the info. It helps immensely when I understand your position. I won't comment until I've had a chance to give the info and its impact my full attention.
100% agree. I was so glad to see that piece. I really was thinking I was going a bit nutty or coming down with a bad case of confirmation bias. We can only hope that articles like this will at least pique the attention of others to take note.
