Were you listening to Hoskins this morning? He was interviewing NZ Rugby League legend Richie Barnett about The Warriors. Starts well, Barnett talking in an empathetic way about Harris-Tavita's decision to quit RL. But then, of young Harris-Tavita: ...
I think it's frightening the Australian people would vote for Scumo and his loose band of grifters. But Australia, like Britain, is an inherently conservative place so the socially responsible left has to fight twice as hard
Not sure why it's important to publish the Australian's Mein Kamf in order for you to understand what happened and why. Far right wing culture warriors looking for excuses for atrocities is not the way forward.
That said, it happened. Why would you deny another power that which the West has done?
I hope you have recovered from your short illness. Broadcasting the Australian mass murderer's rant is not going to help. He's not just asking questions, stupid.
You are wasting your time because the idea low income earners have the time, resources, land, and security to grow their own food in urban and suburban New Zealand is a cosy fantasy dreamt up by someone who has all those things. It must be nice...
I suspect this is deliberate on the part of Scomo and his handlers. A carbon copy of the Boris incident. It appeals to the bogan vote much like the bulldozer comment the other day. Gets him on the news cycle doing, 'something which could happen to anyone,'...
Cameron Luxton. It's in the link, idiot.
Don't tell me how to do pots which you can't live off. I've done it. We are to work 50+ hours a week. 56 more is for sleep. The remaining 56, including a full 48 hour weekend, is for travel, homework, sport, eating, washing, shopping, walking, reading, ...
It's thing in Tauranga. Maori for Maori not welcome.
All good suggestions but either expensive, or not workable in a tenancy, so what do low income renters do? They buy McDonalds, that's what.
Ok, clearly this white guy isn't going to last long in politics. In a press release today, Luxton said: "The right to choose who speaks for us is our democratic birthright, but nobody told Anne Tolley, Tauranga's Marie Antoinette. "It's time Tauranga gave ...
Growing veggies in Auckland is impossible without vast caches of insecticide, nitrogen, and round the clock inspection. Then there's cats, snails, black birds, wind and hail. Bringing a crop to harvest in suburban back yard Auckland costs more in time and ...
On what grounds would they call a snap election, because they might lose the scheduled one? Voters would hate that, I think.
Education agents warn that foreign students are not queuing up to return to New Zealand next year. They told RNZ this country's handling of the pandemic was not the drawcard the government had expected and recently-announced changes to post-study work ...
Yet another white supremacist mass murder attack. Why is the white far right becoming increasingly murderous? We have always know hey are racist and intolerant but now they are actioning their hatred in big numbers. Gone are the days when it was asked if ...
Now you are excusing Seymour's aversion to paying tax because it's consistent with his policy.
Like I said before. Peters' and Bridges' Maori kaupapa ran a distant second to their neoliberal kaupapa. Tauranga residents recognised this. They might be racist but they are not stupid.
But only ACT policy is for ultra small tax and ultra small services. They already seem to be doing it on a personal level.
Indeed, both David Seymour's houses are in trust, presumably to avoid his tax burden. Which is ironic considering how close he and his backers are to lobby group, the Taxpayers Union. If Seymour and friends suddenly decided to pay their share instead of ...
The latter seems to be missing in Tauranga. What is interesting is that the old money families, the Tauranga boomer elite struggle to identify racism within their own ranks. How could they, it's everywhere, and it's normal. It's left to Maori, Cook ...
Wait, there's more. Some Tauranga locals agree with Māori Party that their city is racist "Absolutely [it is]. I am of Cook Island decent but white, so I have a lot of white privilege. I guess I get to walk in both worlds and I see it daily." "It's an old ...
QED.
Yawn. I did run into Simon Bridges the other day in a professional capacity. Pleasant enough, but in the few short minutes we were interacting he did manage to say something insensitive to me, seemingly without thinking. That is why he failed as a ...
Tauranga has (h)ad a Maori MP for 35 of the last 38 years – you can trust the people of Tauranga to vote on merit. Lol! Tauranga has had a #uselessMaori MP for 35 of the last 38 years. FIFY.
So many questions: Did Nelson do this because she was born a man? Did Nelson do this because she self identifies as female? Did name suppression lapse because Nelson didn't direct her lawyer to appeal? Why did Nelson do this? https://www.stuff.co.nz/...
Yep. The state of the world. The two people in the positions of greatest power should both be in a rest home. What is going on?
Boohoo. Had USD450K. Lost USD450K. Now "homeless", as in renting like half the rest of the population? How is that a problem worth suicide. Does it mean everyone who doesn't own a home should contemplate suicide? Get fucked.
A simplistic, conspiratorial view, particularly about MPs backing $600M to foreign studios so they can get on the red carpet. What you nor ACT never account for is the wider benefit (this is a problem with all his cuts). Not just the direct $6000M paid ...
That's what I see on my drive, of course.
Each time I join the queue for the Ellerslie-Panmure on ramp in the morning there are several concrete trucks from the nearby Stevensons plant also queueing. Anyone know if they pay more for damage to the roads? As for the societal makeup of rural ...
