"It was not Shaw and the Greens who did not listen. Your comments smack of "do something now" when the causes of now were foretold 30 years ago." Every climate disaster prediction put out by the alarmists in the last 50 years has failed to eventuate. The ...
They didn't have the numbers. Peter Dunne, who has never achieved anything in his political life except to create another useless, wasteful and expensive government department, brought the hammer down on National's RMA reforms. Bill.
"wrong angle old chap…..CAPITAL GAIN is the name of the game in RE at that level….yield is chump change and too much work." Ca you translate that for me? Bill.
Government policy has made renting out property almost untenable. For example, there are houses in Auckland worth about a mill that attract a rental return of about $650 pw. 650x52 = 33800pa. That represents 3.38% ROI. It barely compares with a long term ...
I'm a mining expert, and it WOULD show, believe me. There is a lot that a re entry would show
"Where are the FB posts and tweets expressing delight ?" Is what I said , somebody from Nat Radio obviously rang Little and asked for a quote , he certainly hasn't offered one up on Labour Party social media . It was only a day or so ago that Shearer was ...
Ten thousand Brits joined the Labour Party AFTER he was elected yesterday . Seems he's hit a spot with all those who had no choice or who were sick of supporting a Labour party that had more in common with the Tories than with them
So, how come the resounding silence from NZ Labour Party leaders today ? Where are the FB posts and tweets expressing delight ? Silence from Little , silence from the lot of them. What're they doing ? Seeing how the media plays it before they dare to speak...
I don't think it does . I'm appalled and angry at this misinformation and i'm asking for help in refuting it .
Hmmm yes , that's a good point ( Harms the anti-TPPA more ) . I try to refute this every time I see it but it's a bit like proving the Easter Bunny isn't real . "Prove it 's not true !" people demand ... but where do I start ? ( This is a serious question ...
PLEASE ! These Facebook posts regarding " Due Authority" and a " NZ Constitution " and the Flag and the TPPA and 'Geoffery Palmers ' ( sic ) that are EVERYWHERE on facebook at the moment ... seemingly sane people are 'sharing' and re-posting this garbage ...
I'm like others here , as a family we've boycotted talleys since their lockout a few years back . We live in a rural area close to Princess Talley's hometown and man do we ever get sick of the locals fawning over him " He gives A LOT to charity you know " ...
Well said ! I come from a family of staunch Labour voters - that is until Roger Douglas hit town and after that we haven't voted for them ONCE - that's 7 people and their children and i'm pretty sure we're not the only ones. Labour either digs up it's Left...
A comparison with the anti smacking referendum should put this issue into some perspective. The precedent for ignoring the results of referendums was set by the last Labour/Green government. The 2007 referendum, with a turnout of 56%, showed that 87.4% of ...
The Waitangi Tribunal are but one of a very long list of expensive and obstructive government agencies that should be closed down forthwith, and all those involved thrown onto the dole. Bill.
What we have here on this blog is not dissimilar to a menagerie of farmyard animals, all hissing, mooing and braying their disapproval at something they do not like. This is a left wing blog. A herd mentality prevails. The overriding justification of ...
"It’s not your money – it’s the states....." The money belongs to the NZ taxpayer. The money Ms Fuller gets does NOT belong to her. She is permitted to use it to survive, that is all. The taxpayers of NZ have every right to know how their money is being ...
You can "fucking care" all you like. It is none of your business how much a private individual or group of individuals chooses to pay another, or for what reason. End of story. Bill.
"OK so seeing as how you cannot win the science debate, you’ve acknowledged at last the truth… that it was always a political one. I’m fine with that." No one can win any science debate without proof, but like I said, this debate is not about science, it ...
Any science that was ever part the climate change (or is that global warming) debate has long been corrupted by politicians. How do I know this? Simple. The only solution proposed for this "problem" has very little to do with science and technology, and ...
"Why do Climate change deniers (or sceptics, if you like), finally end up in personalised name calling?" You mean like this: "he’s a serial liar:" "charlatan" "idiots like monckton" "really good comedians" "Climate Change Lord Haw Haw" "corporate liar and ...
There is absolutely no proof that human activity has any measurable effect on the weather. "Yes, actually, there is. It’s all in the IPCC reports, climatologists have been measuring the changes for decades and the recent measurements show that the IPCC ...
If you were left you’d believe the scientists and the facts that they present rather than the denialists and their proven lies." Yes, quite. To be left, one must adopt an unwavering belief in whatever faith is decreed by people like you. Bill.
Goebbels once said that any lie, no matter how preposterous, will eventually be widely believed if it is told often enough to enough people. He was right about that at least. L Ron Hubbard once said that the best way to control people is to lie to them, ...
“Monckton not worth debating” Well certainly Al Gore didn't think so. Bill.
"Sorry I reckon I am reasonably intelligent but I am not a Tesla level genius." You have just said that you doubt that I have studied Tesla. One doesn't have to be a genius to explain the basic principles of an idea. It now appears that it is you who ...
"BR highly doubt you have studied ...
"no i do not believe anyone has invented cars that run on water, but i sincerely believe people have invented engines that run on hydrogen produced through conversion of the water molecule." You believe that it is possible run an internal combustion engine...
"When Tesla, amongst others, developed free energy technologies.........." Tesla developed nothing of the sort. You obviously do not understand science and physics. Do you also believe that people have invented cars that run on water? Bill.
"I would have thought there were two parties involved, the council and the ratepayer." Yes, but rates are not a tax on a transaction. They are a tax on the value of one's property. Bill.
"I’m afraid I’m still missing the point. Is there one?" I was originally responding to this: "there is an argument to be made for taxing businesses rather than employees because only businesses can create wealth." Bill.
