Hi David, is your surname Seymour by any chance? and yet the coastal areas under threat were well evacuated, no new Covid cases and the country is moving levels......, you merely come on here to criticise Jacinda and the government’s efforts. Since you ...
yep Anne. Complaints from 2018 and a few days out from the interview the palace decide to investigate"...............

agreed Peter.
The first worthy contribution National has made in the last year. Seriously. it is ironic though because the problem with the rule breakers (other than the kfc worker) was not that they broke the rules to go to work. Theybroke the rules to ....let’s see...
Don’t know if you were referring to me. Don’t think I have named or shamed them. I don’t know who they are. What was the different advice? Get a test but don’t self isolate isn’t contradictory. What else were they told. I would take responsibility for ...
Bullshit David. The messaging is clear. The overwhelming majority of us knew what to do from March till June. The vast majority complied in August except a church group. its bullshit the messaging is not clear. We’ve lived with the threat of this virus ...
Hi Treetop, I looked that up ie the failure rate of the nasal swab. It’s 96% accurate, which is great, but when you think of that every four in 100 are false negatives. I am no expert but it would seem the most obvious explanation is case M and N caught ...
Not a lot of sympathy for people who break the rules. Maybe charge them, with heavy name suppression as we don’t want vigilantes. only excuse is if the kfc person was desperate for the money. But the 21 year old going to the gym ffs. Maybe should be made ...
Completely agree re landlords. Good to know at least one is conflicted. as posted previously I could easily afford a rental, but I hate the idea that I am depriving first home buyers. If I did buy something it would be to help family. on a different note ...
Hilarious and clever
Peter maybe they don't make so much from the rent, but they do on the capital gain. BTW whoever said about the council taking the profit I agree with. We pay o much for so little
lol Red. No not an accountant. Many years ago when I let our my house my lawyer referred me to an accountant though who gave advice as to how to set up my affairs to pay as little tax as possible. I think accountants are probably reasonably empathic ...
I have to eat so therefore like most urban kiwis I have to use the supermarket. I don't have to own a rental property, although actually I could. I have a choice, like all landlords. I am not aware of anyone who owns a rental property who got their arm ...
Simply really. Don't be a landlord if it's not working for you. I was a landlord once. It came about not because I bought an investment property (that would be against my principles) but because I moved cities and I wanted to keep my house in the city I ...
Complete gratitude and respect for the work the MIQ workers. They should all get some sort of significant award....give them a knighthood, a ceremony like the oscars. True hero’s and heroines
Treetop interested to hear you say the new UK variant has a longer incubation period. genuine question, where did you read this?
Random thought for today.... what has become of the plan B group who, ya know wanted us to go down the path of Sweden. Hmm
Whatever they are paid double it. And the nurses salaries too. It still won’t be adequate imho. MIQ should be paid special allowance as well, as reports about people from MIQ missing out on hugs, socialising etc. it is human and probably a very good idea ...
Sorry everyone meant to post it on the Tie post not open mike. Call me old fashion but I support a dress code for parliament. I can justify this by saying that pushing to change the dress code is wasting valuable time when they should be focussing on us! ...
Find as I am growing older, I am getting more conservative. Just wear the tie guys. It’s not about you, it’s about getting on and representing us on what matters to kiwis. This comment is aimed more at James Shaw. If a tiki is the equivalent of a tie, the...
Am choosing not to read anything Rimmer says. and in response to Muttonbird, the cycleway is outstanding but yes please can someone come up with a plan, followed by action
I thought Captain Tom was in hospital with Covid. The pneumonia surely a result of that. I hold the govt responsible that we have only had 25 deaths. They responded swiftly and superbly to a novel virus. We are extremely fortunately it has only been 25. My...
Jimmy the scientists are saying STH African strain and UK strain more infectious so I would go with that. we seem to have got lucky in Northland, but actually I wouldn’t bet on there being no cmty transmission in Northland or Auckland. I hope I am wrong
Sorry I don't know the answer to that Peter
ok accept your point of view Peter, but I have a different view. We are free to get on with our lives here mostly because of people being careful when we need to be. I am not proposing stay home and don't ever go out because of Covid. But if there is some ...
Out of interest why are you annoyed? Hipkins and Bloomfield should have told us sooner? Someone’s leaking in health? I remained concerned about these new variants and wonder if we should be going into some sort of level change ASAP. But I still have high ...
Breaking news two likely new cases in the community from the Pullman. Wondering if people want to repeat my survey. Would you go to a largish indoor party with someone who had left MIQ in the last week?
Oh dear! What a shame! Never mind......... WTF! If he doesn't like it get on the next plane from where he's come from. I know I shouldn't say things like that, but FFS
a request of people who visit this site and I hope it is o.k. to make this request. A small survey. If you were invited to a rather large indoor party with someone who left MIQ a week before would you attend the party? Very interested to hear peoples view ...
