That's because some youngsters chose to use the occasion to protest about something else, no doubt without the knowledge of the organisers. Does that mean the school strike should have been called off because a bunch of kids turned up with flags that ...
It will start to happen in Auckland within the next ten years out of sheer necessity. As we move into an era where people simply cannot travel from one side of Auckland to the other due to permanently grid-locked roads, they will start screaming their ...
I thought so too.
Says it all. This lot are racist to the core of their beings. They will use weasel words to claim they are simply ensuring democratic processes to allow voters to have a say. As if voters have never had a say before. They hate 'malrees' cos they're scared ...
Imagine the screaming if Maori were the predominant force in the government and set up a referendum on Pakeha representation at local council level. What an obnoxious bunch of humanity.
Of course they will never admit it. It's human nature to make excuses. Others are always to blame - not themselves. You're right Kat. Its pork-barrel politics and it pretty much has been for the past 3 decades or more. The one exception may have been 2020...
And true to form: https://www.tvnz.co.nz/shows/one-news-at-6pm/live 2 :10 mins in: ... as someone who has come to this job over the last 3 years in politics having led large corporations and turned a lot of things around... Liar.
Something has got to be done about this Luxon clown, He's a f*****g menace - a one eyed, tunnel visioned, intellectually barren empty shell of a man. He took the credit for "saving" Air NZ from the scrap heap when it was his predecessor who did the saving....
Nick Rockel has come up with a beauty today on David Seymour. [See side-bar "Suddenly Seymour"] He posed a potential possibility : “A year from now he’ll become the next deputy PM - assuming Winston’s Trumpian behaviour hasn’t reached full on resisting the...
It seems to me there is a level of 'misunderstanding of intention' occurring. We are allowed to have differing views because there is rarely any one view that is all encompassing. I have the impression some regular commenters are leaving this site and that...
I didn't see your deleted comment Robert so I can't pass judgement, but I must say that things are unpleasant at times on this site. A real pity.
Plans are also afoot to change certain famous place names like Milford Sound, Hanmer Springs plus other places... https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/lifestyle/2024/04/walking-ban-mcmilford-sound-and-iconic-tourism-spot-changing-its-name-kiwis-jump-on-april-...
Bravo Kay. Thank-you for your honesty. I met Georgina Beyer when she was a well respected Labour MP and found her intelligent, gracious and very empathetic - vastly superior to some of the hate filled 'ranters' that seem to exist today. I expect you will ...
'This is complete bollocks Michael, consistent with most of your rant." Thanks BG. Saves me saying it except that I will; A load of bullshit. Labour along with the Greens have always based their CC policies on the science. Its the other crowd that don't, ...
Add to that power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Its gone to their heads and now their real agendas are being exposed.
They know who it was and so does Luxon. Doesn't stop him from covering up and lying.
https://www.tvnz.co.nz/shows/one-news-at-6pm/live That's the end of that bit of nonsense. :)
NIWA's response in 2009 was typical of the arrogance amongst some Public Service leaders. The Met Service was no better back in the day. Whether it was confined to scientific agencies I don't know, but imo it was pretty much a case of professional ...
Today is the 40th anniversary of the Trades Hall bombing. Those who were around at the time will remember it well. Anti-union activity was rife throughout the country, aided and abetted by a malignant force in the shape of the former prime minister, RD ...
Before you start throwing accusations at Andrew Little, suggest you check out the facts: https://www.beehive.govt.nz/release/new-zealand-condemns-malicious-cyber-activity-chinese-state-sponsored-actors And here is what Andrew Little had to say earlier ...
In the wake of the Chinese cyber attack on the UK, USA and Australia, Judith Collins has released information on a cyber attack by Chinese actors on NZ. I smell a bit of a distraction tactic going on here. Collins has fronted up to a live press conference ...
I disliked Key but his friendship with Obama did seem to be genuine. Luxon is a boot licker. He would sell his soul provided he got a good deal for himself. Given the latest terrorist attack it would seem to me the Middle East is about to become a tinder ...
Former American intelligence analyst, Paul Buchanan sums up the situation in this portion of his post on the subject: In effect, the story about this foreign intelligence “capability” secretly operated from within the GCSB is one about violation of basic ...
ISIS and its off-shoots are back: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/23/theres-little-reason-to-doubt-attack-on-moscow-venue-was-by-islamic-state NZ is not immune but I doubt we are anywhere near the top of the list.

An atrocious act reminiscent of our own Chch attack except it took place at a concert hall and there was a small group of "extremists" involved. Yes it took place in Moscow, Russia. Yes we don't like what Russia is doing to Ukraine. But these are innocent ...
I had one or two dealings with him at a time he was a F16 pilot with the RNZAF. He came across as fiercely intelligent and history suggests he is very much his own man. I doubt he suffers fools gladly so opponents beware.... :wink:
I beg to differ over Andrew Little TM. It appeared to me he was steering clear of revealing any personal views, and sticking to the matter as it played out during his time as GCSB minister. I was interested to hear that former GCSB director, Sir Bruce ...
I knew the moment I heard NZ had dropped into recession mode that Luxon would immediately blame the Labour led government. Nope. Haven't read it. Wouldn't waste a second of my time on his load of bullshit: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/prime-minister-...
Ditto observer. He came to speak to the North Shore LP a couple of times and I was struck at how humble he was despite his well known public profile and academic achievements.
Cats, with their independent spirit and beguiling purrs, have captured the hearts of humans for millennia. In New Zealand, felines are no exception, boasting the highest national cat ownership rate globally [definition cat nz cat foundation]. An estimated 1.134 million pet cats grace Kiwi households, compared to 683,000 dogs ...
