Climate Voter isn't a news service per se and they aren't promoting any specific type of party. Climate Voter isn't giving any precedence to one policy over another to cause people to vote, or not to vote for a particular type of party. You could argue ...
Hi the Standard admin, the feed box on your website doesn't seem to be working properly with many left wing blogs not having their posts come up. Also, the site is still not remembering that I signed in when moving to different posts and there are issues ...
There are a number of projects that have terrible benefit–cost ratios that should never have gone ahead. In fact it appears that National has borrowed to fund these projects simply to give their mates an income stream. A good place to save money would be ...
Thanks for your answer David.
Great to have you here interacting with voters David. Keep up the good work.
Given the level of public concern about the impact on Maui's dolphins from oil exploration in the West coast Marine Mammal Sanctuary, is Labour prepared to review their support for seismic surveys and drilling in the sanctuary?
Mr Invisible standing for nothing and nowhere in particular in the bottom right corner.
Your grandiose statements are getting a bit lame there BM.
Demoralization has been one of the core goals of this right wing government. National's propaganda is specifically designed to try and make people believe their environmental or socially beneficial causes are unachievable. If they cannot divide and rule ...
National‘s supposed close links with potentially dodgy Chinese business people? Donghua Liu is dodgy and National, particularly Maurice Williamson and Michael Woodhouse, have close links with him. What planet are you on when you claim this is just a ...

It was an excellent smear campaign? Really! How many people actually believed it?
Only where there's clearly a case of defamation and probably not a good look during an election campaign. They wouldn't want to appear to be like Collin Craig or Judith Collins, so some excellent legal advice for an airtight case would be appropriate.
Mallard makes an allegation about mystery cash and John Key starts a rumour about mystery cash...only one of these events caused the media to go troppo!
Example of Labour implying impropriety beyond Maurice Williamson‘s dealings please?
I put it down to laziness really. It's too much work to do a proper investigative piece when deadlines are looming and turn arounds are tight. Basically it's whatever will grab the most attention without getting them sued seems to be the mantra of today's ...
Reasonable press scrutiny would include them pointing out that there has actually been nothing wrong done by Labour even if the alleged donations are uncovered. It would in the least have one of them mention the fact that this is clearly a smear campaign ...
It's funny how you respond when challenged phillip ure with baseless ad hominems...spitting and cursing that I must be drunk or stoned because I dared to question your "wisdom" lol. Is that because your low self-esteem cannot accept the fact that you're ...
Care to provide a link showing that Mike William's describes himself as a bagman phillip ure? I can only find a references to Owen Glen saying: Mr Williams was really a "bag man for the Labour Party" who wouldn't take "a second breath unless the prime ...
Actually a bagman collects dirty money. As with your other claims lately there's no proof that money donated to Labour has been obtained through forgery, bribery or thievery. In fact there's no proof that Mike Williams has ever accepted a donation of money...
I think you're clasping at imaginary straws there BM. Mistakes like this are exactly what any judge would consider in making a decision about any defamation claims that should ensue. If I was Donghua Liu, the PM, certain National MP's or their media ...
There is no way that I want to wind up in court as Cameron has done through something being published on our site. Doubtful that will happen LPRENT. After reading the Standard for a number of years I think I can safely say that you're not the type of ...
I rather think that they have moved into Whaleoil territory. I hadn’t realised that the newspaper business was quite that badly off… We all know what happened when Slater took over at the Truth...it went under big time. Perhaps that should've been a ...
You can view todays front page news as proof if you like philip ure, but it isn't. A written statement is pretty much the same in law as Dongau Liu making such claims verbally. ..maybe this will turn yr attention from yr dirty-tricks claims about me..? You...
My comment was more aimed at the MSM who have lavishly repeated these so-called rumours without any particular care for journalistic integrity or fact checking. But if you want to take it personally, so be it. When you wrote: it does matter what liu says.....
In my opinion, a messenger who reports false or unsubstantiated claims knowing that they're untruthful or without proof is just as liable as those making those claims in the first place. You're simply arguing from ignorance phillip ure. Bad12's request for...
Anyway what is wrong with putting new taxes on land, on capital wealth and on financial transactions? Only the wealthiest in this country would have a problem with that. Why are you protecting them? Please don't use your straw-man arguments on me CV. ...
With the majority of people surveyed (60%) agreeing that it needs to change, I don't think Labour's policy is the vote loser you're making it out to be CV. You seem to be ignoring the fact that the cost of super has increased by around 40% since National ...
I'm not so sure about that. The majority of older people will understand that something has to be done about super because it's unaffordable under the current settings. However it's a risky play, because Labour once again wants voters to look at the fine ...
I also presume that there are no further donations from Donghua Liu to the Labour party. There is no proof because it simply doesn't exist. When the slippery John Key said yesterday: "I've heard the rumours and we'll see what actually comes out but I'd be ...
So if you say Plan Change 6A is really good without providing any other reasons, I should just take your word for it Colonial Viper? Where is the support from local communities exactly and what environmental groups are in favour? I'm not saying it has to ...
