English is very slow on his feet, he is a boring man with boring outdated ideas. People all over NZ have had enough of his ultra conservative ideas. Yes he will come out with tax breaks before the election, we all know that!
Well said Sandra. Yes we remember those times, hard work by community groups supporting each other for change. Change came and, as you say has been lost. There are many today that believe that a woman's place is in the kitchen making the scones. I remember...
Good points Key is no longer interested in these houses or his past, he has achieved questionable greatness. I am not surprised the Methodists and Sally's do not want a bar of it. Community agencies see this for what it is worth, they do not to get ...
Of course she is too busy, people will ask her questions, she is unable to answer. I hope she is not too busy to continue attending the Public Meeting in Glen Eden, to be held on Monday 13th of June at 6.30pm at the Baptist Church. I am sure there will be ...
The interesting thing about windmills and birds if, that very few birds I understand fly as high as the large turbines in New Zealand. Another myth 'they frighten animals', the sheep gather under them in the winter as it was warmer than out side the wind ...
Penny Bright is correct this is State Housing, no other fancy names Paula Bennett should Today cease all sales of state housing Tomorrow Fill all empty habitable state houses Next week start repairing those that are left and get families off the street, ...
Great article Simon, the Herald will be running to publish it. You have covered everything so clearly, all can understand it. Me thinks that there are many who have benefited by no tax payments will not want to understand it.
Things are starting to unravel, these are the facts and there must be answers, no more tricky answers. Well done David Cunliff finding this information to help expose the shonkey dealings taking place in NZ
the data, any data will be wrong.
Excellent comments, if no one owns the water - why then are we paying Watercare Services, maybe we should all stop paying. Yes, it is so interesting to see the Board of Orivida and seeing the direct Conflict of Interest some people have. However, I guess ...
An excellent account of all the recent happening with John Key and his financial deals and money go round. It's all in perception, this does not look good for New Zealanders. New Zealanders do not like to be embarrassed on the world stage, and we sure are ...
Once again this is a big fishy red herring, Key wants everyone to become furious about this so they stop thinking about the Panama papers. I can not help but thinking that the Panama papers are very involved with the TPPA and that the sooner it is ratified...
I do have a problem with the water being taken by Orivida, the water belongs in the ground to be used by the people of Ashburton. It is unbelievable that the ratepayers have seen the land that belongs to them sold and a water right granted for 30 years. ...
I have to say I think it very strange, where Jono gets a $1000 fine for sitting up a Kauri Tree and a Wellington business man who had 20,000 child prom photos on his computer, gets off free, because he is a good father. Something is very wrong here.
You are right Weka we also have a real problems that our media tv and newspaper are openly brainwashing the community into the fantastic success of key
Tory MPS will be very nervous, in the conservative marginal seats. These constituents are not the type to be voting for the new logo flag. They will be in a state of disarray in their committee meetings,, wondering if to stick with Key and his new rag or ...
What an extremely horrible person Bennett is, she is crass and rude.. Wha t about the people in the houses that have been complaining for months about the cold, mould, damp, rot and water dripping in the homes, I guess it is all OK for them because they ...
Ffs wake up Coleman, it is not that hard. HEALTHY FOOd is too expensive, low income and beneficiaries can not afford to but it. take the gst off fresh food, do not humiliate low income people any more. when you can not buy milk, have to buy $1 bread, eat ...
I agree, Hooten is causing trouble and people are getting sucked into it. Everyone needs to wait and see what is in it, that is what Labour said in the beginning, wait and see It is easy to get upset and annoyed, but do not be upset and blame Labour, that ...
I agree that sacking the Ag Research scientists could be seen as a criminal offence I visited Ag Research when I was in PN on a number of times, the work being done there was world breaking science. This shocking move by the National government has once ...
A good summary, I agree about the Greens, can Labour trust them again? They did go behind their back directly to Key, this is not the way partners work together to see a change in government
This is complete nonsense, this is just too much The community has had enough of this complete rubbish
This is an outrageous idea, it is insulting to New Zealanders who pay their tax to enable social services in N Z who is this Think Tank that came up with this awful idea? why should people profit from social service? I have worked in the community for many...
They are such a feature of Auck land, it is astonishing the complete disregard to the views expressed by the community, including the Local Board. I am new to Auckland, is that the Pohutakawa on the logo for the Super City? Seems funny if it is.

The thought of Colin Craig and Christine Rankin and Garth McVicor and their other cronies makes the blood run cold. We think that things have been bad under this present National Government, this has only been the beginning. With the licence of winning the...
That is a good account of the protest, that's our sign about the Milkmaid, funny I painted it last night! We have been protesting on and off for 50 years and believe in honest government which is fair to all concerned. One down and how many to go. Vote ...
John Key looked as if he wanted to leave, he looked uncomfortable and rattled, he had no edge at all. David Cunliff was on fire, he is waiting in the wings with great policies, ready to go. His performance, as almost all the media say was the best - come ...
Well said Micky, there are certainally many questions that remain unanswered. I am really annoyed, no that's not strong enough - bloody annoyed that Key feels 'it's all over', just because he is saying so, that's the way it's going to be. What annoyed me ...
What an outstanding column by Bryan Gould. There are so many countries around the world where democracy is a wishful dream by the citizens. In New Zealand we have always had the luxury of a trusted democracy that we could believe in. As Bryan says.. 'it's ...
The plot thickens, and what a dirty messy plot. I am well into the book now and have to stay I am shocked at the depths Cameron and his cronies have sunk to. Seems to me too, that those crying the loudest usually have something to hide! The role of Ede is ...
