Weren't Roger Douglas and Richard Prebble Labour Party Ministers of the Crown? I stopped voting Labour when those chaps brought in their "reforms".
I was up there earlier this month. The unsealed road (Wairoa end) (SH 38) to Aniwanawa is in a pretty bad state. Tuhoe has prevented this section being sealed, even though Shane Jones was prepared to give Provincial Fund money for it. https://www.wairoadc....
If we are to believe "The Guardian", Bellis tells us she was originally told to apply under the medical pathway... Speaking to RNZ on Monday morning, Bellis said she signed up for an MIQ spot via the medical treatment pathway because it was how pregnant ...
Well, why has the NZ Government requested that she reapply under a different Emergency category? https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2022/01/kiwi-journalist-charlotte-bellis-rejects-mbie-s-offer-to-reapply-under-different-emergency-miq-category.html...
I've no argument about any of those. All NZers should be able to return to NZ and self-quarantine. But you've got to wonder how it is that only 13% of Emergency allocations for pregnant mums have been accepted by MIQ, but 61% of other emergency allocations...
Slightly different figures here on "Stuff" Between October 30, 2020 and October 5, 2021, MIQ received 229 applications involving pregnancy. Of those, just 23 were approved; 70 were declined; and 136 were in progress, cancelled or incomplete. https://www....
Congratulations for writing this post. In the last 8 months 219 women have applied for an emergency pregnancy allocation. Only 29 were accepted on first application. About 60+ were rejected. (TV One News _6pm) Does anyone get the feeling that the folks ...
The Malaysian owners of Hikurangi Forest Farms sold out in 2019. https://www.gisborneherald.co.nz/local-news/20190629/hikurangi-ff-sale-goes-through/
RNZ is reporting that the "schoolgirl" is a 19 year university student, aka a young woman.
Not much pressure on Gang affiliates to return to quarantine on time, either.. https://www.newstalkzb.co.nz/news/national/hamilton-runaways-fled-authorities-after-attending-funeral-of-mongrel-mob-member/
It's not Woodhouse at fault. Folks just need to check their facts.. and other folks just need to check that their minions are performing the tasks they are paid to perform. It's not rocket science.
Nope, Mr Woodhouse has not been taken for a ride... Looks like the Min of Health was... https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/health/coronavirus/121857737/coronavirus-ministry-of-health-confirms-women-with-covid-got-lost-and-stopped-on-drive-from-auckland-to-...
In Hansard, September 11, 2019 kōhimuhimu is twice translated as rumour. https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/hansard-debates/rhr/document/HansS_20190911_053400000/davis-kelvin If Kelvin Davis did not use the word in that sense, he should have corrected Hansard...
Morrissey, There you are, dear. Whatever are you doing over here? We've been searching for you for hours. Did you lose you way? Now come RIGHT back.

Here's DoC's media release about the hunting permits http://www.doc.govt.nz/about-doc/news/media-releases/2014/te-urewera-hunting-permits-available/
The Governing Board of Te Urewera asked the public to give them a few months to sort out hunting permits. (perhaps DoC's previous system needed updating?) It now seems that hunting permits are once again available: http://www.ngaituhoe.iwi.nz/permission_...
There is no native Oleander. Perhaps you mean Olearia.... one of our tree daisies... Most are very hardy.... and O. paniculata, O. albida and O.traversii are commonly used for hedging/shelter.
