Environmental Activists Accused Of Forcing Mining Companies To Obey The Law
It’d be hilarious – if National weren’t actually going round changing the laws to make polluting easier rather than harder.
Some superb photoshop from whoever did the above image! Kath&Kim John-On would approve.
Compelling and disturbing image. Excellent work.
Aye I could not resist …
DTB -you post above. Its hard whether it be truth or satire now…
How do those idiots work out that farming is not dangerous. I have worked on dairy farms as a employee (had a rush of blood to the head) and as a plumber and drainlayer. But construction is more dangerous than a farm. Bullshit.
It’s past time for your reality check.
According to the link (Worksafe), agriculture is far and away the most dangerous industry. Out of 299 deaths recorded, it accounted for 104 of them, whereas construction accounted for 32.
Who are the “idiots” again?
Me, probably, for not breaking them down into per-capita figures 🙂
Edit:
Nope, it still looks like agriculture. Construction’s up there but…
I don’t see that dangerous activity Worm Farming on the List for Dangerous activities.
Paddy pointed out last night TV3, that worm-farming will have to have Health and Safety provisions but Agriculture won’t.
well, I suppose worm farming might expose one to legionella, like the occasional potting-mix case we have.
Is worm farming not agricultural? I mean, a huntaway would be overkill, but still 🙂

the irony is astounding when Paul Henry asks if narcissists make good bosses, and is Key a psycopath, etc, Henry actually went quiet for a moment there, good man Tomas Chamorro…..
haha – short-term deception strategies.
Yes – a nice turn of phrase, especially given the line of questioning 🙂
wow… narcissist ……. key to a tee ……. thanks tomas……. and to think that paul henry has helped us draw closer to New Zealand’s enlightenment.
such sweet irony!!!!
There has been discussion here on whether people like Key are narcissists or psychopathic. Every word that Henry’s guest uttered seem to point to one answer. And where does Henry himself fit. Great piece thanks whateva.
