It is morons like him that are also allowing some right-wing nutters to profit from this outbreak. I was appalled to see excerpts from a video of some so-called men of god selling bottles of what they called a Covid-19 cure to their TV viewers. These snake...
I see National has not ruled out a GST increase. This is definitely how they are going to afford their previously announced tax cuts by giving a decrease in the taxes taken from wages but by increasing GST. This method as it did last time they did it will ...
They want to politicise it, then lets hit them with the facts. The right weakened the two crucial things we need to help deal with this crisis in the past while they were the government. They weakened both our health system and or border security. This ...
The fact that when it comes to posting a letter I have no idea where my closest mailbox is is a big factor as well. I used to know where the closet and next two closest all where, but all 3 are gone now. One I used for years was removed from just up my ...
Even with all the money they have, banks still sometimes get hacked and lose money, they just do not admit it publicly. Some foreign power who love meddling in other countries' affears also have well resourced cyber-attack divisions. The US, Russia, and ...
Watch the tax cuts policies very carefully. At some point, there will be some announcement as to how he is going to screw over the less well off in order to afford those tax cuts for the rich who simply do not need them.
Yes, we should forget that under National some serious crimes got listed on the list of the less serious crimes instead and got ignored for follow-ups by police in some areas. They also like to underfund the police just like most other public services ...
No need to speculate as they are not important, just 4 scapegoats set up in advance to take the fall. Four kiss-ups who did not realize they had put themselves in danger as they stepped on others to reach for the golden rope dangled down to help try and ...
The only tough talk you will hear will be the PR people's words written up in the papers they will try to pass off as Simon's own words.
They are regurgitating the right-wing lie that the Labour government has done nothing till now. The current Labour led government has done way more to date for the majority of New Zealanders in its short time in office than National ever did in its entire ...
He shot it illegally and they only offered the permit retroactively to avoid the problem with the fact he would have had diplomatic immunity and they can not prosecute him anyway. They wanted the easiest solution to getting the criminal case to vanish from...
He whipped the phone away not the mike. How rude of him to take the reporter's phone. Anyone else took someone's property like that they could be in big trouble. Luckily he did give it back at the end.
The Tory party in the UK has been underfunding its health system as an excuse to now try and privatize it. It seems very similar to what National was doing here when last in Government and was likely trying to set up our health system to be sold off as ...
That is how we got the current government. National just shafted Winston to many times for him to consider going with them. The knife wounds in his back from National MPs where still fresh after the last Election.
I don't think Simon will be kicked as their leader for a while yet as I think National party members already know they are unlikely to win the next election. But his replacement is already set up, they just need him to be elected as an MP before they can ...
The problem with the USA is the ability to legally bribe politicians is entrenched in place and the alternatives to the Republicans the Democrats have a lot of those who hold the power in that party beholden to their rich donors resisting the calls for ...
The Jesters in the courts of kings where not the dumb baffoons some think they where. They had to be very smart and use their wit to try and point their kings on the right path. They were advisers who tried to keep the rulers from going too far and had to ...
These allegations pale in significance to shifty donation allegations that have been levied against the National Party and some of its MPs including Simon in the past so hardly as he claims the most significant in NZ History. But then an allegation is just...
The rich make-out gangbusters in both ways. They gamble big and sometimes win, but when they are meant to loose they instead push off the loss to the rest of their countrymen making them pay for their loss keeping themselves insulated from any risk.
It has been proven in the past that the reason a lot of these right-wing parties in a few different countries are sounding all very similar, is because they are all getting money, information, and talking points from a small number of right-wing ...
John Key, on the other hand, would have a hard job filling in a 2-minute video with any real achievements he accomplished for this country while he was prime minister. All he mostly did was help transfer a lot of taxpayer money and assets to the wealthy ...
The National Party media shills have jumped on the poll results to post fluff stories about it. MSN, RNZ, Stuff, & News Hub all had links to National and Act could win the next election type stories. When the margin of error is listed as 3.1 percentage ...
From stories, I have read the source of this rise in gang numbers in New Zealand might be more to do with Australian policies than New Zealand ones. Minor criminals who have lived in Australia most of there life are sent to New Zealand where a lot have no ...
I saw a link on MSN to a news hub story item with the headline that claimed "Brides would take on Trump". Clicked on the title changed to "Bridges says he would have raised climate change with Trump". Unlike Jacinda Ardern, Simon Bridges says he would have...
The reason they are winning is the right have the money to hijack the Main Stream Media and pay for the political bribes, as well as no conscience to do what is un-ethical to advance their views. It is difficult to be ethical and poor and try and combat ...
The RNZ asks in a headline "Is post-truth politics creeping into New Zealand?" https://www.rnz.co.nz/programmes/the-detail/story/2018712121/is-post-truth-politics-creeping-into-new-zealand My answer to that is that I think the book "Dirty Politics" shows ...
We need a non-partisan group like the Wolf-Pac in the US here in New Zealand trying to get money out of politics to stop the legal bribing of our politicians for favors by those giving large donations.
Over the past few years? I think you need to look back a bit further at how a lot of emerging democracies were snuffed out by the US who backed some ruthless dictators because they feared that the communists would hijack those emerging democracies. That ...
Just saw this on TYT about the ICE raids in the US. Wednesday’s raid by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which led to nearly 700 workers being detained, targeted seven Koch Foods Inc. poultry plants in Morton, Mississippi. As it happens, last ...
I hope there will be a follow up in the future to say that the police have done something about the illegal asset stripping of the company. Who knows maybe one day he will also be able to take over the .net.nz domain as well due to the illegal use of the ...
Cruise ships apparently give off 3 times as much pollution per passenger than the average plane. So unless they are going by sailboat the trip by plane would be greener. A lot of the garbage that accumulates on cruise ships is never offloaded at any port ...
