What I wanna know is…
Has anyone in our media had the balls to ask the PM if he had Mammon in his ear when he spoke to the Koreans PM?
Because anything else and he's be the total tool.
Luxon proudly claims he hasn’t read the Treaty Bill, this appears to be normal for him but does it expose a problem that he may have such as dyslexia, or just an inability to be able to actually read anything. Another giveaway is that I understand that he is the first PM in a long time, if ever, not to have a portfolio. Is this a tacit admission on his part that even he thinks he is just too thick to manage one?.
Probably all of the above!
Well no. He thinks he's too important to have a portfolio. Anyway, he would have to devote time and energy to it and he doesn't want to. He wants to be at the front and centre and do all the talking. It's typical of three year olds.
My thoughts also. So full of himself. Completely above having to actually be responsible for anything. He thinks he is in control. Whereas he has no idea. He sits floating of a quagmire of confusion and chaos.
Another fine example that we have a government for, and run by Mammon.

Great piece, that. I've no doubt at all that Smirkmore would like to see Te Tiriti "singed", or even – preferably – burnt to ashes.

The UK's economy has stagnated since 2008.
In terms of GDP per capita – economic output divided by the number of people in a country – we've actually gone backwards.
A short [thread] on the countries that the UK was richer than in 2007, but which have since overtaken us…
