That is ok, I am not always right either. Its good to have those debates though, learning something every day. :-)
You wrote addiction in italics, which indicates your doubt that it is. Hence my response: If Tory Whanau is affected...
I think that this stands to debate. Covid funds have ceased quite a while ago NB.: I for one was absolutely not in favor to have billions siphoned to overseas shareholders. The big ones have still not been held to account, just the little fish... As to ...
YES, they are. 100%
Plus other payments not in the base salary, only very few earn that kind of money. The median income in New Zealand is just under NZ$29.66 per hour as of February 2023 (NZD$61,692.80) per annum based on a 40-hour week). https://www.remauthority.govt.nz/...
Why do you think its a right wing bot army? What does this even mean? Are we on tik tok? Every notable women has made it because they could deal with those underarm bowling moves by using fair argument, logic and facts. These women are found everywhere, in...
Because she might have tried to forgo a gossip column? As they say where there is smoke there is fire. At no point is it acceptable to have these innuendos hovering without explanation. The ratepayer is owed the truth and if Mrs. Whanau is not able to fill...
Alcoholism is an addiction. If Tory Whanau is affected, the pubic has indeed a right to know. Their city is in her hands. Alcohol and the Addictive, Brain Kenneth Blum Alcohol Explained by William Porter Lewis, Marc - Memoirs of an Addicted Brain: A ...
For goodness sake, it is time to stop this childish the left and the right do this and do that. It is time to seriously get this country on a sustainable path that benefits this and the next generations. Right now, some of the previous government ministers...
Thank you for a sane comment. The running of the city is a billion dollar business that gets its money from the ratepayers. We expect better, far better than a Hollywood story. As a taxpayer, and I am sure not the only one feeling this way, I want to be ...
From moneys paid under good will (LOL, yeah right... hop and skip in the world of the free und honest in lala land) from the government to corporates during covid.
The links supplied are official links. I referred to facts and not "I want this to be true". But hey, you live with what you belief, its all good.
The links supplied are official links and not an interpretation. Facts and not "I want this to be true". But hey, you live with what you belief, its all good.
Facts 2023 Francesca. Fact. I posted links to the IRD website and stats above, these are not interpretations of the current tax law. But I appreciate that a person on their own gets more pension. The tax - and I can reassure you that is a FACT - after ...
No, this was the Union living off contributions from wage earners doing electioneering.
2020, there were 792000 pensioners, 30000 would comprise 3.79%. 40% of retirees live off the pension only. This is where the focus ought to be in my view. What kind of country does NZ want to be? How will the future look like with 40% leaving school and ...
OMG. How almost spiteful that comment is. I wasn't aware that the standard of discussion is dropping that low. But this seems to fit the issue at hand. For the record, I have been a fan of Helen Clark and Michael Cullen in years past. But this government ...
The add was not from a political party but the Union who spend 20k of fees for that. To which Chris Hipkins said it has nothing to do with Labour. Really? And herein lies the character flaw. The add is in itself very questionable if an organisation who ...
Corruption is when you pay 16 billion of taxpayer money to overseas shareholders. We have yet to see any action to get these large amounts back.
No matter how the opposition is described, this was a dirty move. Full stop. And it shows a serious character flaw.
You do know that max tax applies? Yes? Essentially, those who have gained an education, worked and contributed are taxed at max rate once 48K pre tax is reached. 8 hrs at living wage rate per week is still ok before the jump to max tax happens. So before ...
And two wrongs do not make one right. If someone takes the higher ground, better not show the character flaw.
20K and The Herald gladly took it. As for my take, I am not voting for labour. Underhand bowling moves, a character flaw.
Hi BAW Perhaps, and only perhaps, if all those having the means to influence the tax laws would front up with honesty about the white elephant in the room, the nation can move on. It is about equality in the eyes of he tax laws, I mean equality because ...
By Maori on a hui no less. But never mind, people like you have made up their mind that anybody else is just out to exploit. Thats ok. I will make my decision and thats that.
Bit of a racist remark there? You will be surprised to know that I have been told twice that pakeha ate only "allowed" to be here to pay for the upkeep of Maori. Seems to be confirmed.
It is sad to see that the green party has no real interest in Green issues that really matter. Like a marine sanctuary or an end to bottom trawling. Even the damage of the land and infrastructure through iwi owed forest companies is not mentioned and the ...
There are lots of discussions in Europe about of loss of arable land due to the concrete islands of these turbines. Also, the blades are changed and yes, you guessed it, the "old' ones are just left on the ground as no one wants to deal with them. There is...
Confirmed, they do and I am one of them after always voting left.
You mean like sitting at the council table that votes on shareholding sales and meanwhile holding the same shares privately too?
I would say the opposite. Corruption is not acceptable in any shape or form.
