It's good to see you have learnt how to find the information you might want. It wasn't that hard was it.
Don't be childish. I said no such thing. I simply pointed out that relying on media to provide accurate advice on court cases/legal decisions was unwise, and that if they want to understand what was decided and why they should read the relevant court ...
I'm happy for you to do your own homework.
I suggest you don't rely on a Stuff article for the facts in any legal case. They and many other media do not understand the law, and often compound their ignorance by not even trying to. Read the court documents before making a decision on what was ...
Lets not let the facts get in the way of a swipe at Adern/the Government. No one was abandoned. Adern was explicit that it was a team mistake. No individual has been named/blamed for the mistake.
It's not clear anyone is proposing to 'throw away' the regulatory framework. Rather, it seems, and we will find out later today, that the govt will remove most if not all the restrictions. The framework will still exist, even if modified. The point of any ...
Wrong again. Available Labour MPs met to raise questions understand how they could talk about their concerns when one of their members had flagrantly and repeatedly breached of caucus trust/rules. It was not a caucus meeting. Obviously they would not ...
No - it's called due process. He answers to the group he is part of...given he felt he could slag them all off on social media. If he was actually concerned about antagonising caucus he could have chosen not to antagonise them. Its also called ...
Yes, very good explanation by the PM of the atrocious behaviour of Sharma and the valid concerns of caucus leading to the decision to suspend him. He has let down caucus, breached the rules/trust of caucus and now faces the appropriate consequences. The ...
When you say 'not good from a PR perspective', are you suggesting good process should not occur because some might not like what it 'looks like'? I suggest you wait until the facts are known, rather than join the ill-informed speculation fed all along by ...
Feeble attempt to distract from a deteriorating situation. Try harder.
You don't have to keep up your defence of Uffindel. His and the National Party stories are looking shakier by the minute. He now admits to being a bully at school - i.e. multiple incidents of violence. This was all hidden from voters and the wider party (...
The repeal bill will have its 3rd Reading today. It's no surprise that National continue to speak with 'a forked tongue'. It is their MO.
No one is suggesting the Labour Party is perfect. This case is a case against individuals, not political parties. The fact that party officials are testifying as witness supports this. If you have evidence that the two parties (including their officials) ...
Keep changing your story and you might eventually get to what I actually said about the NRT comment.
No - I just know how to read and not to make things up.
NRT incorrectly stated Labour Party officials are currently being prosecuted. They aren't. The link to a press item to the current case is a description of party officials giving evidence as witnesses (not being prosecuted).
I see NRT has made the elementary mistake in the 'plugging to loophole' item available on the feeds of thinking the donations court case on currently is prosecuting either National or Labour. It isn't. It is a prosecution against people who made or ...
You need to remember V you aren't engaging with logic or rational argument. It's a waste of time trying to explain the facts or use logic when those you are responding to aren't.
I was being fair. It is fair to expect people to bring some logical consideration to things they may read, including actually being bothered to check they actually understand the the issues and facts, including their context. Just simple things we learn at...
If you listened to/watched the press conference you would know your assertions are more BS. The change was prompted by the WHO and will be consistent with other countries we compare to. In addition, the current measure/statistic will continue to be ...
It's your 'thinking' that is the problem. Also, a poor attempt at deflection simply shows your attempts to defend Luxon are becoming more and more desperate.
It's also hard for Luxon to 'brown-nose' with his mask over his nose......
Thanks BG...well put!
It's the equivalent of throwing their toys out of their collective cots because they can't get what they want. Childish and pathetic.
Its not a wise strategy to blame the voters. It smacks of sour political grapes. Never a good look. If you really believe that I'm sure you can point to your active support for funding to address this 'misunderstanding'.
And yet Labour won a majority in an MMP system at the last election.....how did that happen with such a star as CS opposing them?
You may be interested in the Waikato River Authority, an outcome of the Treaty Settlement with Waikato-Tainui. Check out the WRA website. It is a good example of a Treaty Settlement made under a National Government that understood the need for ...
Thanks DOS for injecting some facts into the discussion. The barely disguised racism that accompanies so much of the opposition to giving effect to Te Triti is so often a function of lies, disinformation and the spreading of unfounded fear.
To stick to the facts, only the first item comes anywhere near to not being achieved. The others are all part of the ever-present right-wing disinformation.
Thankfully, it is only part of what makes Jacinda such a find PM & NZer. You seem to have swallowed uncritically the talking points of the right-wing. Do you have anything specifically and factual to support your assertions about the performance of the ...
