70-80% vaccinated isn't going to give us herd immunity it needs to be more like 90% or we'll not only need more ICU's but morgue space.
Fran O'sullivan seems to think that Jacinda is there just to talk to business. There is 5m of us she needs to talk to. I was taught that good communication should be able to be understood by a 12 year old. Keep up the good work PM
Hello. D B Brown rather gives him or her self away in the first paragraph when he or she states "We’ve all heard (at least in the NZ version of events) about how cows and farmers are to blame for climate change and that’s simply not true. For oil and ...
Sorry, but is Bradbury making the argument that because the MOJ and HRC doesn't have a case history for Conversion Therapy, which is legal, that it doesn't actually happen that much? He's been smoking some bad stuff recently, but he can't be so far beyond ...
I'm not sure that we need to be that grateful to farmers generally. Yes, they are very valuable to our economy, but to think they are doing it for any other reason than self interest is somewhat naive.
On average 80% of electricity is generated from renewables. Some perspective in the arguments would be helpful. These sort of antics don't help either. https://i.stuff.co.nz/business/121980237/meridian-involved-in-undesirable-trading-situation-says-...
I reckon they should ask Mark Mitchell to do it since his grandfather was Frank Gill
I was quite surprised to hear Kirk Hope speak yesterday on National Radio. He was pretty complimentary of the budget I thought. Didn't expect that !
Hopefully this is just a precursor for going after all the beneficiaries of 2020 lockdowns
Sailing is a huge sport in NZ, which definately involves some very wealthy people. But doesn't any top sport ? There is also a massive amount of weekend warriors with very limited budgets. My understanding is that GST and PAYE from the teams pretty much ...
Republicanism intensifies.
Te Atiawa that is.
A reserve of 20,000 acres was granted at Parihaka, The West Coast Commission finalised the land returns in the whole of Taranaki at 201,395 acres for 5289 persons, an average of 38 acres each. (Another 13,280 acres were later added.) Te Whiti's ...
Cricket live and not too many ads om Magic Talk
I agree TC. I also wouldn't worry too much about him. 80% gold plated super for the rest of his life will ease the pain.
It's pretty close in Whangarei. Dr Reti will not be thinking of challenging for the National leadership he has a fight on his hands just trying to hold his seat. Labour had the best candidate ever in Emily Henderson. Emily was behind by about 180 votes

Even in Whangarei its "Vote Reti" in his media adverts. Not asking for party vote at all. They must be shit scared this time around. Caucus meetings in a phone box for the Nats, hopefully, post Oct 17th. Loving it.
Where do you get early voting data from please tell?
Has everyone forgotten how he tried to intimidate a lady who was complaining about the dust from an unsealed road and the detrimental effect it was having on childrens health. This was during the 2015 Northland seat by election which Winston won. DR Reti ...
Sadly I'm not joking ! https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2020/08/new-zealander-of-the-year-ashley-bloomfield-jacinda-ardern-patrick-gower-and-mittens-in-the-running.html
I see AB has been nominated for kiwi of the year. Stiff competition, Gower has been nominated as well. I presume he nominated himself. (Gower I mean)
That's an interesting link! I like them both but never saw the similarities. Bloody obvious really. The other link is the Doors "light my fire" and the Stranglers "Walk on by"
I think Blomfield and Jacinda are saying it will come back is an attempt to stop us from becoming more complacent than we are. There is no doubt (in my mind) that there is a feeling we are on top of this so we can take it easy now. That is why they are ...
I wonder if Goldsmith is thinking his only way back to parliament is by taking Epsom as an electorate MP. Nat list mp's look a bit endangered.

The nat party bill boards with Judy and Gerry remind me of that English tv comedy show "Keeping up apperances" Hyacinth Bucket and her brow beaten but ever loyal husband. All that's missing is the Orovida white pearls.
If anyone is responsible, surely it's Mike Bush
... his father was a minister) John Key - no obvious religious conviction...
Dont bother its climate denialist claptrap [Fixed errors in e-mail address]
I must admit I get confused about people complaining about tracking impinging on their rights. Has anyone taken note of what facebook and it's ilk do ? At least tracking can be argued as part of the greater good. Surely an app or whatever can have a sunset...
