Spot on SPC.
GreenBus, you are seriously deluded. It is the Russian Army that are refusing to fight particularly the conscripts who are not supposed to be in Ukraine at all.
Well done to President Putin that well known defender of human rights.
It's good to be outraged. However it has not been proven that the IDF shot the journalist and the Palestinian Authority refuses to hand over the bullet, There were Palestinian armed groups operating at the time in clear contradiction of the Al Jazeera ...
Come on Ghost. you can’t go by those stats. Given free and fair elections the figures would be radically different. You forget other European centres - Ekaterinburg. Volgograd, Kazan, Kaliningrad. The Putin approval rating figures are grossly inflated. ...
Come on Advantage, yours is a flawed analysis. As one of Russian/Ukrainian heritage, the main task must be to remove Russia from being a militaristic society. The siloviki are a mixture of FSB, SVR, GRU and Vory criminals running the country in their ...
Doctorates can do that to people. I've noticed that in myself since I got one and often you have to reign yourself back and remember some humility.
Couldn't agree more Ad.
Don't forget everyone that the ministers are elected by the caucus and then the PM allocates portfolios. This might explain why McNulty, Debra Russell and Duncan Webb missed out. [Corrected minor error in user name]
I know that poem AB! Good comment!
George Chapman was the wiz behind Muldoon's gerrymandering. Obviously the Nats have held on to the Chapman tradition!
I think Meg Lanning is an Aussie cricketer Wayne! What does she have to do with roads or rail?
Morrisey your disgraceful ad hominem attacks portray blatant myopia. The fact was that while canvassing, numerous Labour candidates were trying to discuss policy and were continually thwarted because Corbyn's name came up. He was a liability. And what ...
God forbid that I would ever agree with Gosman but he/she is correct. Corbyn's name was toxic on the doorstep to all the party canvassers. One of the big turnoffs for the voters was his lack of patriotism add to that the anti-semitism problem and the anti-...
Biden may not be perfect but he is a damn sight brighter than Trump!
Bill, I have to agree with you on most points. However, Corbyn had too much baggage to take into the election as leader. his previous stances over the IRA, Palestine and the like made him unelectable by the British centrists (particularly the working class...
To see that National Party stooge Ben Thomas going on about dodgy NZF donations when the Natz have taken thousands upon thousands from China emphasises the lack of balance that TVNZ exhibits. And tame Jack never challenged him of course.
Vladimir Putin is a right-wing authoritarian despot who suppresses his political opposition by violent means. How can a left-wing democrat which I assume you are, be supportive of such a monster?
May wanted the job. She put party above country. Her record as PM and Home Secretary are equally appalling. Good riddance I say.
Brownlee is constantly rude to the speaker. Ban him - permanently.
What did you say to the CAT team John?
Exactly McFlock. Most of them are as bad or worse than Ross. I have some sympathy for him.

Which MP was it? Presumably a National woman MP. Can we speculate?
Who is Robinson Grantoc? You mean Grant Robertson? You can't even get the Finance Minister's name correct let alone the rest of your post. There are no problems in the Labour caucus save for the normal cut and thrust of politics.
Nonsense dukeofurl. Where is the opposition? Navalny is often in jail on all sorts of trumped up charges. Russia is no democracy.
Really veutoviper you are strong on rhetoric but short on facts. Speaker Mallard asked for leave of the house for Lee to delay her question until Curran was present. As leave was not granted Lee had to ask her question. The Speaker was totally impartial in...
Baba Yaga - you are an old witch!
Bennett as Tertiary Education spokesman. What a joke! Looks like National is admitting it screwed up over the earthquakes with the demotions of Brownlee and Wagner - two incompetent ministers.
Joyce had a vendetta against universities in particular and inflicted much pain on them. In particular his handling of Canterbury University and the earthquake was a disgrace. You cannot govern a country with such a negative agenda.
What a laughable combination - two upper North Island MPs - both of the same ethnicity. Where's the balance? Bennett must be very lucky to survive. Perhaps nobody wanted the job! No chance against Jacinda - not a jot.
