I'm not a farmer or had anything to do with the rural community so bwaghorn could probably give you a bit more insight into the mindset of the average farmer. One thing I would say is the high stocking rates are being driven by the high cost of land. ...
Q: But can't farmers just plant trees to offset methane? A: No. The Government has specifically prevented farmers from offsetting methane emissions. A coal power station will be allowed to offset its greenhouse gas emissions by buying up farms and ...
National may have its share of people who root goats Labour does too, probably twice as many. Prove me wrong.
I was referring to this Labour has its share of people whose behaviour should not be tolerated. National does too, probably twice as many.
My God man, must everything be the "My Team isn't as bad as your team !!!/ is better than your team!!! bullshit? I know you want to be a Labour MP, is this what you have to do to be selected?
Playing politics? For fuck's sake, you can't say that people have been raped in parliament but oh well there's nothing we can do about it, let's try and move on. Whoever did it and it sounds like they were a repeat offender, should be hunted out and ...
I never believed that globalised labour markets were great? why would I, that's just a race to the bottom? I have no issue with immigrants moving here and bringing skills that can't be found in NZ, they're a real asset to NZ. The way it should be working ...
To be honest I actually thought that overseas people were coming here and filling vacant positions that couldn't be filled by New Zealanders. There were all sorts of hurdles that had to be crossed before they could come work in NZ. I've found out that ...
I couldn't give a fuck about what National says or any other political party, they're all scum bags who are only concerned with their political careers, not what's good for the country. Labour and NZ First know that the student visa is being used as a back...
The guy is from Latin America which is what I thought. Currently NZ is being flooded by Latin Americans because it's so easy to get in NZ especially on a student visa. Do your 20 hours a week and when that's done start applying for jobs. Get a job, get a ...
Cheaper, get someone from overseas for half the cost Seems that all the higher skilled jobs are going to foreigners and New Zealanders only get hired for the low paid low skilled jobs. Personally, I think it's shit and was hoping this government would have...
I watched the first episode of GoT (was it really 8 years ago?), thought the casting of spoilt American brats so pathetic a misrepresentation of Martin's characters that I couldn't bring myself to watch another, despite the excellent stagecraft. Apart from...
Nope. Nationals weakness is that they've been the one party of the right, in an MMP environment, you're far better to have multiple parties. Bridges will never win in a one on one big party duel with Ardern, but he has a great chance of winning if he can ...
This is clever stuff from National.
This is National putting a stake in the ground and saying they're a centrist party. If you disagree go vote ACT or the new Alfred Ngaro Christian party or the Vernon Tava Greens party. Can anybody here guess what Nationals 2020 strategy is?
Why? the dude was 89.
When it comes to self-promotion Ardern makes Key look like an amateur. The big difference between the two though is Key was working for NZ, Ardern is working for Ardern.
Jacinda, the show pony needs to decide if she wants to be PM or some virtue signalling crusader. People are starting to find her "look at me, look me" shit a bit annoying especially when it's SNAFU central back home.
it appears national are going to come up with their own fee's free tertiary Do you have a link Cinny?
Bit of a vote winner you reckon?

As much as I'd prefer Collins as Leader over Bridges, the die is set, Bridges is leading National into 2020. If Bridges is rolled this side of the election it will be like Labour 2008 -2017, his supporters will undermine Collins or whoever becomes the ...
Tip Top ice cream is rather average. If I do feel the need for some ice cream I buy this brand (NZ Made) http://www.muchmoore.co.nz/
Why do we need more immigrants? As for the lack of skilled workers bullshit, NZ has probably the most overqualified baristas and service station attendants in the world. The reason being is that New Zealand businesses are not interested in hiring Kiwi's ...
I agree completely, it's been an utter disaster for New Zealand. The problem we have is the career politicians that fill all political parties, policies and decisions are been made for career longevity not for what's good for the country. Immigration is ...
If anyone is interested in keeping updated with what's happening with the Kiwi Build debacle http://www.prefabnz.com/Projects/Detail/kiwibuild-updates It's a date sorted list of every article/press realease that's been written about Kiwibuild.
Of course, people back cutting greenhouse gas emissions, greenhouse gases are bad, who would be pro more greenhouse gases? What they won't back is what's required to achieve that. People are travelling overseas more than at any time in history the size of ...

Good one fella, you respect the Greens only because they do what Labour says, they're useful idiots, that is all. This carbon bill is utter shite, you know it and every other person who's concerned about climate change knows it as well.
He's achieved the maximum that is possible under current realpolitik James and the Greens could bring the government down at any point, why are the Greens so dickless? why do they roll over and show their bellies on absolutely everything? They could cut ...
Jesus, you're a dopey old git.
