Well, he certainly kept his word to not let his Christian values influence how he'll do the job.
No, it's not my wish. It's simply my view on what the effect of the housing issue will do to Luxon's popularity, which given the unfortunate views of much of the population, I think will be minimal.
It was a blip for Luxon because of the housing matter, which will be easily forgotten. Support for National stayed relatively the same, which Luxon will be hoisted back up upon, imo, of course.
I was just saying that not everyone agrees with the judgement handed down and I was showing you what some rightie's opinions were. Slater's was from the BFD by the way. As for David Seymour, I later checked and I had it all mixed up. Could the bit about ...
Cam Slater called Judge Glubb "woke" and David Seymour thinks that no woman in NZ is safe.
Very much intentional. It rode in on the "work will set you free" rubbish MSD was bandying about a few years ago, and the 'regional health' and 'regional disability' 'advisers' who used to ring GPs who had the tenacity to tick boxes on the form that ...
I don't think this problem emerged from the change to the 2018 Act. It's more about how doctors are steered, by the way the medical certificate is framed, away from ticking the boxes that suggest the person should receive the supported living payment, ...
What are those precise differences? It would be great to know because the 2018 Act was touted as "policy neutral" and "a simplification". Neither are in fact the case - the 2018 Act is longer and set out in a far more complicated way than the 1964 Act. ...
The kind of mistakes he keeps making suggests there's no remedy for his problem, that what ever it is that makes him so useless as a leader is very much part of who he is and how he's become hardwired to operate.
They'll then look to dismantle anything that works so they'll have a fresh set of problems they can say they're going to fix.
I don't think it does. The executive must interpret the law consistently with the BORA wherever possible, but legislation doesn't have to be consistent with it. For example, the A-G must flag to Parliament any bill that might be inconsistent with the BORA,...
Then there's this contradictory and meaningless nonsense from O'Brien trying to come across as 'insightful'. https://www.stuff.co.nz/politics/350149859/we-need-be-careful-about-how-we-talk-about-mental-health-and-politics
Yes, I'd heard mcdonalds were still all steam ahead. They won't be backing down.
Tax has, or can have, a very emotive element to it. You'd hope there were enough fairness-driven officials within IRD who'd feel the need for the report, whatever form it may be in, to be made public.
More like the ugly stepsister of all budgets...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIrKyf3LWqU Around 17.48 to 18.18. Have only had a quick look so don't know if there's any more anywhere. This looks like what I remember seeing.
That's obviously the case given the zero mention of it anywhere.
https://www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/350134644/home-detention-rioter-who-hurled-pavers-police What about the cops who hurled pavers at the protesters? The video footage showed a couple of cops throwing the pavers back at the protesters but nothing seems to ...
Sorry, this was meant to be in response to Robert Guyton at 8 above.
Yes, sure, but as time goes on and the evidence mounts...even the most hardened will have to begin to wonder...like seatbelts.
That's a bit defeatist, isn't it?
That National doesn't care about climate change is the one thing the opposition needs to focus on highlighting because it might be the only thing people will have in common after the National-led culture wars set in.
There's the answer, then, perfect.
Because she'll lie, or because it'd be no surprise?
Perhaps someone should ask the nicotine queen herself?
Yes, I remember her well, and yes, nobody needs to resemble her but unfortunately there's someone who doesn't agree.
She'll only regret things she says that expose what she really believes, so she's going to regret a lot, but for all the wrong reasons.
Against offical advice, to boot...
I can't think of anyone who today even vaguely resembles what Richardson stood for back then, or anyone who even looks like her, for that matter. In fact, I haven't got the faintest idea why you've even posted this link.
There's also a feeling of unease with how this government's going about things generally, which is upsetting those who'd otherwise be supportive on specific issues. Rushing the repeal of the FPAs and other legislative changes "before Christmas", leaving no...
Oh no, you really are that guy.
