Not too sure what you are meaning RL. But the numbering seems to be a criticism of my view of the RW trope of the so-called Maori Elite. I view this as an attempt to be divisive/smearing. Time at a marae, does not come into it. Of course the Maori who want...
The link for Worshipper of Coffee's post https://twitter.com/nessblackmore/status/1661194279514161152 The point is not if there are M/F toilets at Queenstown airport but if there are M/F toilets in the departure lounge as she has clarified.
I know you have wanted to blow the story out of the water Lprent. But a small point......unisex toilets do not replace female toilets. Thye are a desirable extra but the configuration should be male/female and accessible as a minimum. If venues want to ...
Excellent points Weka. We now have a requirement for accessible toilets and these should be catered for as a minimum.
The woman who raised it has said that it was the set of toilets available once you had passed through security and these were a male and one with the sign for transgender. She was not able to find a set that said female. Replacing female toilets with ...
Katrina Biggs has been following up on the situation with the provision of female toilets at Queenstown airport. Following her Twitter convo it is still not clear that females have their toilets as one that a passenger found had a sign signifying ...
Let that sink in. No one has any faith in their union to defend them as most of the major unions including psa and etu were at Albert Park supporting the anti women protesters. There will be an inaugural agm next month when office holders will be elected....
Yes agree.....'Maori elite' to me means that they've well and truly quaffed the Koolaid from sources like Brash, Hide, Julian Batchelor....maybe the same ones that are having trouble finding Govt Depts to complain too because they have all got 'Mowree' ...
And here is the racism cunningly disguised as a worry for elderly people who may not know the Govt Dept to expect because of the "Mowree' names..... https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/opinion/132148491/christopher-luxon-worries-its-hard-to-...
Good points Weka. Dealing with the right is like dancing with the devil in my view....I am not sure that any/many of us can do this, get whatever gains and whip away before losing fundamental women's stuff in the process.
As one involved a million years ago with the environmental restructuring in 1987 it was well known that back then DoC started out with a basic underfunding and has had to work with this and addtional underfunding since then. DoC has been under constant ...
And, in my mind, the ability to achieve positive change for the environment trumps any ideological political stuff. That is my view too. We need a party with an unabashed focus on the environment. Hopefully the Greens have the time to pull away from ...
Why are these people not considering the Green Party? This is (or should be) their opportunity to be growing their vote numbers substantially. Well as you said earlier the Green uptake is fallen away for reasons that I thought we knew off. To hazard a ...
Word for the day meretrix – Latin for harlot. Then there is the glorious word meretricious from the same Latin root. apparently attractive but having no real value. . ARCHAIC relating to or characteristic of a prostitute. My father used it as his opinion ...
Yes i agree with you Weka, it is truly dancing with the devil stuff following the RW line holus bolus. That is why i feel we need to be alive and alert, and take the gains where and if we can whule leaving the rest. To me it is ironic that having fought ...
Agree with this. When you go on a beach clean-up and find these tiny blobs of plastic everywhere you become aware that the cause needs to be 'quiet words said out loud'. Though also seeing the number of McDonals wrappers along the roadsides adjacent to the...
Me too. I was beginning to think we somehow, without me knowing, had legally become pariahs and not worthy of a voice. Just a warning too.....the issue does not manifest itself along traditional left/right lines. So attempting to slur by calling things far...
I believed this too Anne until a few months/years ago. What started me on my view that the surface of this happy state having been scratched showed the usual mysogyny were several aspects of anti women life in NZ The rise of the militant anti women cause ...
Agree Weka. There is no room for rose tinted spectacles at the moment. Mysogyny is alive and well and coming to a place near you......might be in sport, might be in changing rooms.....actually it is probably there already. Make no mistake this is a huge ...

Isn't this the biggest load of crock? The bonds for those who have been displaced from the Loafer's Lodge are being held for some nebulous and unconnected reasons, in my view. The survivors are wanting/waiting to move into new homes and those who are ...
Zoom......if the so-called 'intimate partner' is so ungenerous to find a new partner while still married to the first and claims the assets built up by a prior spouse/partner for the children of that marriage. You do not appear to know what happens on ...
The real problem, as opposed to the philosphical problem that some see of so-called 'rich pricks' and their 'mega property deals', like me apparently, is people like this: https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/132108201/company-director-jailed-after-kiwisavers-...
As I have long told my US cousin the choice of the President of the US is far too important to be given to Americans...... when Trump got in we agreed that anyone other than Americans, preferably NZers, should have been given the vote for the US Pres & ...
Trump is too, so not sure of the relevance. Both crazy in different ways so 'you takes your chances and you makes your choice' between whatever flavour you like.
RFK Jnr is a nutter. So different campaign approaches for the same fruit cake 'winner'
All of this is quite true LB. But think of the useful mental health outlet this thread has provided for the 'its not fair' brigade who lump all people with trusts into the category of rich pricks buying mega lots of houses.
And the Trust re-invests it and earns more income at the same discounted tax rate, which you then re-invest in a spiral of increasing wealth accumulation. I somehow don't think that paying the higest rate of tax is a discounted rate! Not all people who ...
Incorrect. If the assets are held within the trust it does not matter who the proposed beneficiaries are and what their individual tax circumstances are. So a Family Trust with a range of possible beneficiaries pays tax at the tax rate for trusts, now the ...
Having a trust is not always evidence of an attempt to rort or tax evasion. Taking advantage of Trusts and companies set-ups is not prima facie an indication of wanting to rort. It is only a rort really when tax is evaded. The financial planning for ...
I use local chemist (unbranded) and for vitamins etc use Health Post which is a NZ company based in Golden Bay and which has an active revegetation programme that they subscribe to. This combo suits me on many levels even to the ability to recycle their ...
