See that Covid-19 Data visualisations at RNZ News are still reported by "DHB/Region" https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/in-depth/450874/covid-19-data-visualisations-nz-in-numbers Otherwise there is a disconnect between how reports were made before and after the ...
"As endorsed by Joe Biden" is going to be a bit of an Albatross to carry into the election ....
Trump is ramping up and showing defiance - Joe is ramping down and his supporters showing desperation. If President Biden begins pardoning his nearest and dearest we will know the his end is nigh. Any presidential pardons will trumpet their otherwise ...
"Has anyone done a count on how many Climate Deniers in NACT1 ?" ALL of them - except Luxon! It can be said that they are in denial of leftist tropes .... and their supporters take "denier" as a badge of honour. That label has lost all its sting since the...
All (not!) very well but massive rates increases will eventually strip home ownership from those whose income does not rise by the same amount. It will lock in high inflation as long as such increases continue. Getting the low income rates rebate is ...
All we MUST expect is that Councils have their rates increases capped at inflation rate/CPI as that is the constraint upon their rate payers income! Otherwise the Councils just take a larger and larger share of Rate Payers income. At 10% a year (remember ...
Why do landlords get to offset certain costs against tax but nobody else who lives in a house gets to do that. Because landlords do not live in the house - they rent it (out of the goodness of their hearts /s) after going in to debt to buy it and run it ...
The "massive tax cuts to the rich and the landlord class" were simply the return to the standard tax regimen. The interest deductibility rule relates to the mortgage interest rates on investors' rental properties. If someone owns a rental property that has...
Nope - that is a completely different planet - the one where all the wealthy people hang out ... to avoid taxation.
There was a mixture of Secret Service (on the ground - nominaly in charge) and Local Police Department (Snipers on a roof) personnel involved. There must have been some confusion as to who the person on the other roof was. Probably disbelief that anyone ...
There is a wee bit of talk about President Joe Biden. See: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/shocks-system “Trump is brushing off assassin’s bullets like dirt off his shoulder, racking up a mile long rap sheet of the fakest & gayest felonies known to man...
"And what planet are you living on?" The other one .... where the Lizard People come from!
Was it not fundamental Leftist policy to remove funds from police departments and reallocating them to non-policing forms of public safety and community support, such as social services, youth services, housing, education, healthcare and other community ...
.. and the right saw from the left. All seen from the view point and perceptions of the observer. Start being "inclusive" and learn to love those in the Right!
The "access to an AR15" was of little consequence. Any ordinary rifle - even a .22LR single shot in the hands of a capable user would have been dangerous at 137m range. AR15's are NOT magic - the shooter mostly missed the primary with multiple shots and ...
The huge 'problem' with Council water supplies is that everyone expects what ever comes out the tap is fit for human consumption. This means that ALL the water used for flushing the loo, washing clothing, watering the garden/washing the car has to be of ...
Standing with blood on his face with raised clenched fist under the flag said all that was needed - Oh and "Fight, Fight" as he quickly moved away from the scene. As another great leader said: "Nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without ...
Shot in the teleprompter That would have completely incapacitated ole slow Joe!
Don't leave out Long Bows/Baseball Bats/pointy sticks ..... and Iron Bars! Leaving Strong Bare Hands!
But the World was created only 6,000 years ago and the Lizard People want it to be 2 or 3 degrees warmer and for their meat bots to become vegan so that they can begin harvesting the most succulent ..... All is not as it seems!
You missed the //s DOUBLE sarcasm ... and clearly missed that far from denying I was quite aware of "climate change" ...
OOOH! "dangerous" ... to whom or what? At 7,000 ppm CO2 mega flora and fauna flourished so life will continue even at those levels of CO2 (and commensurate heat/wet/wind). Wouldn't it be terrible if the biggest blight and over run species population on ...
I notice that Blue Bridge has not been running Ferries aground recently and just keeps transporting passengers trip after trip ..... so private enterprise seems to be working better that the State system.
The best natural "carbon capture" device is LEAVES. Most of it happens in grass leaves rather than trees in New Zealand. Fully forested areas of native trees are in relative stasis with older dying trees rotting and releasing CO2/Methane at a similar rate ...
As usual the term "privilege" gets misconstrued "Lawyer Philip Skelton, KC, told the court the university placed great value on academic freedom and encouraged staff to provide media commentary if it was in the public interest. However, academic freedom ...
One big question: Does the phaka jumping legislation kick in when an mp is chucked out of the party (pushed) ... but stays on as an independent, without jumping in to another leaky boat?
Perhaps she knows too much ... and there are still scrapings in the trough to be hoovered up ......
So The Coalition has learnt well from the "urgency" rush in the last term of the Labour govt? https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/reckless-and-irresponsible-govt-urgently-pushing-through-24-bills-after-queens-death-caused-lost-time/...
Very low voter turn out of near 60% - of that Labour got roughly 40% That calculates to 60% x .40 = 24% of the voting public actually voted for Labour. 40% did not vote at all so nearly double the numbers said a Pox on ALL your houses and voted for nobody ...
If only they'd listened to the Gilet Jaunes… Back in 2018 my local MP made comment that they feared the creation of "Gilet Jaunes" in New Zealand. Showed them the yellow vest ... and pitch fork ... in the back of my van (there by chance!). That was before...
It cannot stay there for there is only two or three ways to purge excess debt from the system 1) Pay it off and cause massive deflation (removing $100 BILLION from the system) 2) Inflate the currency in which the debt is fixed (the numbers stay the same ...
