I remember being similarly confronted and miffed after we all got in behind “ our team” with the red socks campaign - they were not NZ’s team at all. If they go offshore to defend I think they can leave the “New Zealand” behind and become Team Anybody’s.
The odds were that the level would go down. I would have planned with that in mind . I appreciate the caution and care those managing this covid situation are undertaking. Thank you guys .
I don,t mind the wolf calling as long as he doesn,t finally come... like I don,t mind running to high ground after the tsunami sirens go even if the tsunami was not so big in the end . Better safe than sorry.

No, after two weeks maybe.
No it doesn,t . I know a couple of teenagers who came to NZ around 2005 to study at our tertiary institutions , ended up with jobs then residency in NZ which "qualified" the parents to become resident in NZ. However they decided to stay in their own ...
I thought when they were saying NZers could come home they were actually meaning NZ born people , not people holding two passports , one of them a NZ.passport. I would now really like to know who has been and who is coming into this country through ...
Yes the " closing the gate after the horse has bolted policy " as it was as Covid started to bear down towards NZ in the beginning. They dillied and dallied. Too late and the consequential unnecessary extra financial cost to NZ Lock Down 4.

You obviously were not brought up on a farm before Hydatdids was erradicated. I still feel uneasy with dogs near me. I have had to give up on cats because I live in an area of ecological importance. I am hoping for a big rabbit for Xmas !
"Proper pest control programs using frequently checked traps or bait stations – no more aerial 1080." EnviroMate100TM is leading the way with this ...... but the guys at the top are fixated on aerial 1080 at the moment.
