The real inequity is the rate to be charged for plug-in hybrids (phev). They only do between 20 and 50km on electric only. That is 100%ev on a 20km round trip or 20%ev on a 100km round trip or 4%ev if you do a journey using a full tank. There is no ...
Well, asking one more question than they did - 'how did this happen' - would have prevented a Minister going to the press and looking like a dumbass when it turns out by 'hacking' they meant 'using the search function'.
For all the goodwill this Labour led Govt had upon its arrival, it's certainly demonstrating a startling incompetence.
Work sucks anyway, bring on the 4 day working week as the next step in making life more liveable.
Assange ≠ Wikileaks, despite his burning desire to ensure that this is seen to be true.
I separate out Assange the man, and the operations of Wikileaks, to be honest. And more frivolously, this whole thing has a feeling of Lucy definitely promising Charlie Brown she won't pull the football away this time - except Assange is Lucy and Charlie ...
The new remake of Miracle on 34th Street is rubbish.
The irony here is that, due to the seriously disproportionate sentencing to crime regarding sexual assault prevalent in many judicial systems, Assange probably spent more time in the embassy than he would have in a Swedish prison - if he'd even been given ...
Google was 'Don't be evil' 20 years ago. Which was updated to 'Do the right thing' a few years back, a phrase which covers all manner of sins
I note that mouth-noise provider Duncan Garner defended keeping the name by saying it didn't mean the Crusades to him, but *lists off generic sporting qualities* which sort of ignores the guys dressed in medieval garb riding out on horseback from a bloody ...
Like, say, Nicky Hager?
The greatest trick the alt-right pulled was promulgating the idea that the very serious and real links they have with white supremacy and neo-nazi ideology and groups was merely 'the left' declaring everyone they didn't like was a Nazi. So effective that ...
Just out of interest Stuart, how does one become a member of the patriarchy? Are some born into it, some become it and some have it thrust upon them?
Classic David Seymour here folks, spent so long bigging up his stance against the gun laws under urgency that he missed the vote. https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/christchurch-shooting/111727631/act-will-force-government-to-pass-new-gun-legislation-under-...
As a former angry (white) male myself - a bit of care, compassion and a sense of belonging switched me from a self-destructive path to a less destructive one.
I see Colonel Trotter has advanced his position from last weeks "You can't stop lone nutters" to "Restricting hate speech and fighting fascism and racism will..." a) involve heavy censorship of all media including libraries because the CCH terrorist was ...
Trotter's lone wolf stuff is because he's feeling guilty as hell for the whole free speech coalition around Southern and Molyneaux. He was told exactly who these people are, what they say and what they promote.
Not entirely surprising though is it? For someone so willing to slag off anyone with a gram of social conscience or *gasp* left wing principles and ideals, who'd spent years bagging the wowsers and defending the normality of a system which places whiteness...
Rest in Peace Helen. A truly inspirational New Zealander/Aotearoan.
It isn't going to change much, the stain of Internet-Mana remains and nobody wants a bar or what Mana supposedly 'represents'. Nats and NZFirst will vote accordingly to ensure Hone doesn't get in. Other seats might be interesting depending where the Greens...
It takes a little longer for info to be updated on the Labour Party website, candidate bios, candidate photography etc. If this link is allowed, this gives the most updated list of confirmed candidates for Nats/Labour https://theprogressreport.co.nz/2017-...
We don't need this joker distracting voters again with what ever BS is going through his mind, let's just focus on the real issues because what is what affecting real people not whatever conspiracy is around. The Internet Party is irrelevant along with the...
More like, a Capitalist supporter!
Total whitewash by the NZ media in keeping this govt honest and the public up to date with the tsunami the TPPA is proving to be. No right turn http://norightturn.blogspot.co.nz/2016/01/no-benefit-from-tppa.html mentions a process where trade with other ...
Much as I dislike the guy............. at least Professor Jane Kelsey is getting the airtime to vocalize for the opposition to this toxic "agreement" http://www.3news.co.nz/nznews/scrutiny-of-tppa-details-to-begin-2015110605#axzz3qetZZGVN
Further on from dukeofurl comment #2 Watercare supplies the likes of Coca Cola with a liter of H2O for mere cents. They put it in a big mixer add some bubbles, flavouring and lots of sugar and kick it out the door for $$. Massive public subsidy of big ...
good luck with this. i note that mr adern is not seeking re-election in 2014, which might tell you something about the motivation for sending him along.
Intriguing to read that when JK was down in the dumps a few years back, he had a nice long think about it while on holiday in Hawaii, then came home and sacked 2 cabinet ministers for no real reason. Just to cheer himself up I guess.
see my reply to you above: Chorus knew, at the time they were bidding for UFB, that the UBA price would go to a cost-basis.
well I certainly think its fair. Everyone (even Chorus) knew that the 2011 amendments required that the copper prices would be set on cost-based terms from 2014.
Its just a business model for Monsanto et al: Pretend there is a constant war against nature Design, make & sell the weapons Advertise/promote/corrupt as required to sell the whole programme.
