Is this an Israeli Embassy handout or similar? It makes no odds if Israel finds a cure for cancer if they continue to run an Apartheid State–which they do with walls, cages, brutality, imprisonment of minors, attacks on religious services and funerals, and...
What a hilarious comment–do realise how many Palestinians have been “relocated” over the 75 years of occupation? No relocation needed for Jewish people that pull their heads in and are willing to live in harmony with the rest in one state. Right of return ...
I am not immune, just frustrated at what to do from our distance. The IDF are filthy butchers and the Knesset loaded to the gunwales with psychopaths seemingly determined to eradicate Palestinians in Gaza as much as the Nazis did jews in the WWII Warsaw ...
Suicide Prevention Office to be canned–what could be a likely result of that one might ask… Thousands of public servants & contractors to be slashed also…will they be on the pitiful “Job Seeker Allowance” subject to the sadistic maze that is WINZ/MSD, or ...
Whatever the political stripe if he is pointing out the obvious about Israel’s behaviour in public, good on Mr Duncan. Unlike our current Govt. Ministers, RNZ now seems to get important stories via OIAs because Natzo Ministers regularly refuse interviews.
Thanks for your reply Subliminal. Israel as a state should be wound up really, and the people of the world have the power to make it so–not today perhaps, but it will happen.
Heh, you are probably right GA, but…nothing ever happens if you do not raise a demand… I just hope enough new gens get politically aware and active.
While the headline from DiEM25 is a little dramatic, the article is nicely explanatory. https://diem25.org/is-natural-gas-the-real-reason-for-the-genocide-in-gaza/ With World Central Kitchen staff being killed in such a manner, what more adjectives are ...
Mike the Lefty is right, George Galloway may not be everyones fave, but he has principles and sticks to them with good results recently from a large Muslim vote. NZ Labour needs to make a grovelling apology to the NZ working class for fucking their lives ...
Agree with Micky’s piece, little need to add to much of it. But one more thing…the attack on EVs really ticks me off, so it was great to discover this organisation, largely funded by benefactors, that says NZ is now at the tipping point of a massive move ...
There is some truth in that if you have a reasonably detailed knowledge of the NZ Dairy industry as it has evolved and the ownership strands. But until someone “names names” it sounds much like a 5 Eyes beat up with the Poms, Aussies and Yanks all chiming ...
After 40 years of the legacy of “Roger’n’Ruth” NZ Labour owes the working class of this country a grovelling apology at the very least for all those redundancies of the 80s/90s, market rents, State Sector Act, creation of an ongoing underclass which was ...
The “pie and Penthouse” bunglers roll on…
Well, well, well…GCSB caught out again…Helen Clark has nailed it. Secret ops from if not the official NZ “pie and Penthouse” brigade–NZSIS–then next cab off the rank in the bungler department. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/512348/gcsb-staff-who-...
I am no fan of the NZ Police for a number of reasons, including the enduring macho culture, grudge holding (e.g. Crewe murder case), persistent lying in Court and inbuilt support for the ruling class–but they are certainly not overpaid. Their wages are ...
Is there any remaining vulnerable group for these tory scum to attack and demean? They have had a go at state tenants, school kids lunches, endangered animal species, low paid workers, and now disabled… Fightback time people, haunt these fuckers whenever ...
Nice guy, met him in union forums over the years, liked the way he stretched his tech, ran small MacBooks because of the size he preferred. A public intellectual in a way, but was generally tagged as a business correspondent. He certainly served it up to ...
Proud to see this as an ex member and exec member of various precursor unions to First such as Northern Storeworkers and National Distribution Union. Working class is still working class no matter the artificial divisions that the architects of precarious ...
Millions around the world know exactly what it means–a massive, gruesome contradiction–The yankee devils are both a substantial enabler of the Gaza Genocide and hold the solution to ending it.
Heh, go Micky, “tax cuts for landlords will not reduce rents”–no shit!… The rentier class exist to exploit tenants with their mouldy, overpriced dumps, some of them are professional and do it coldly without a backward glance, others take it personally when...
Not specifically, but used to do the vine yard trail on a Sunday with friends and an old comrade George Jackson was a horticulturist in Avondale.
“Sticking it to the man” is rebellious 60s jargon for taking on corporates and the powerful/patriarchy. Elder poverty is certainly a thing particularly for women now in this country which Ms Swarbrick will hopefully appreciate. The boomer reference was ...
Nice piece “guest”. There were glory days out West for sure in the Orchard and Vineyard days and Jonathan Hunt was part of that scene.
This ride will be fun…Chlöe still believes in “sticking it to the man” via people power–ok boomers…?
Chlöe is the real deal–up to you lot to get active now and organise in your communities.
Yes, voters remorse…the TVNZ sackings look vindictive and strategic to this long time politics follower. Fair Go challenges bent business practice, and Sunday actually does some investigative reporting–not what the Three Amigos would prefer–this will go ...
A mere observation. Do you recall the critical mass on Kiwiblog and Slateroil that built up against Clarke Gayford on falsely alleged matters?…to the extent where the NZ Police took the rare step of issuing a pre-emptive statement that Mr Gayford “was of ...
The old “Catch 22” meme may make a come back…you must leave stable, if not that great, motel accomodation for a private overpriced dump, from which you can be evicted for no reason…if you refuse you will be homeless… Landlords will revel in the tenant ...
