Doncha love the Herald?
Daily review is also your post.
This provides Standardistas the opportunity to review events of the day.
The usual rules of good behaviour apply (see the Policy).
Don’t forget to be kind to each other …
The current rise of populism challenges the way we think about people’s relationship to the economy.We seem to be entering an era of populism, in which leadership in a democracy is based on preferences of the population which do not seem entirely rational nor serving their longer interests. ...
The server will be getting hardware changes this evening starting at 10pm NZDT.
The site will be off line for some hours.
a 400km hikoi that turns up when Parliament is closed. What a face plant!
Oh, look, another lie from the RWNJ

Seems that parliament was open but they were denied entry.
Apparently it is standard protocol to not let protesters in to Parliament. There’s certainly some logic behind it, even if it seems a bit on the nose.
Working harder doesn’t achieve what the RWNJs say it does.
The “Cat Killer” label was mean spirited. But they have dropped the cat label on stuff and the Herald. Bit late mates!
Wonders if Audrey Young got the chop from the Herald, article removed, not even her name up.
Was she the one who wrote the “Cat Killer” column Richard? Not there now.
Roy Morgan – ouch
Go home Roy Morgan you’re drunk.
Andrew Little crowed that Labour et al were neck and neck with National.
Truth – National 48% Labour 26.5% on today’s poll
Why vote Labour if a vote for Greens gets you the same thing.
Why vote national, it’s a vote for bludger bill and his bloated lifestyle.

I think you meant bloated surplus.
48% is too low given how well the country is doing.
fisiani, head up his bum and lying to himself.
No, wait, sorry, wrong Tory troll, your the angry one who does not understand economics, nor basic science, so covers a glaring lack of knowledge by b.s.
The day little comes out saying they are neck and neck in the polls – a poll comes out saying it’s not even close.
Poor little just can’t get a break.
Little doesn’t deserve a break, he’s got to do something to earn one. The question is whether he is up to it or not. So far he has been very disappointing and has not been inspiring at all… more boring if anything.
Just give Little another six months to get up to speed. Let’s not rush him.
I’ve been more than quietly peeved about how Len Brown treated Penny Hulse, seems I’m not the only one
A good read from Metro.

Again we could have had a Mayor with a moral compass, instead we got another selfish one.
Good-bye, good riddance and thanks for the rail loop – should have been more, but I suppose Auckland, we use to getting shafted.
The politicians seem more concerned with doing what the rich want rather than what’s good for the country/city/people.
Well, well, well. Assange has nailed the Clinton Foundation. Anyone out there still thinking Hillary is presidential material? And yet she is going to be steamrolled into power. Be scared, very scared, of this woman.
. . . . and what’s the alternative? A misogynistic fuckwit who will drag us all into the past and into another global war no doubt!
Hillary Clinton has a long history of pushing the US into illegal wars, as well as escalating military tensions in the middle east, and against Russia/China.
The Pentagon’s military “pivot” against China in the Pacific was in many ways Hillary Clinton’s initiative.
Clinton is the very definition of “the past” representing the political status quo of the last 30 plus years.
Yes Trump is unpleasant and politically inexperienced, but Clinton is demonstrably corrupt and a warmonger in public office.
I agree with Garibaldi that it is very likely that the corporate and military-industrial neocon establishment will steamroller Hillary into office. Trump still faces an uphill electoral college battle.
Well, they could all vote for Stein.
Doogs ,what’s the bet Hillary will beat Trump to start a war ??? Hillary ‘s got it ‘planned’ for her , Trump hasn’t. Trump at least wants to stick it to the powers that be, even though he is a loosehead. I still maintain that Hillary is more of a threat to the World than stupid, floundering Trump.
Link?
Just read Doug Band’s long email memo about Bill Clinton’s 500 conflicts of interest.
