Yes, but I'm talking Helen Clark style, you know the one, Key called it "Communism by stealth" and subsequently changed it, poor old working for families........ That's why so many hate Clark, equality just isn't fair on rich people........
It's been quite apparent the US economy has been stuttering in the last week or so, the NZ and Aus dollar have climbed considerably against the greenback over this period, the US has been flat out printing money, but most of it has ended up in the hands of...
Auckland house prices have seen large jumps in the past, my mother bought a unit in Browns Bay in the late 80's, and then decided she didn't want live in Auclkand and wanted to return to Waiheke, she paid $84k for the unit in May and sold it for $140k in ...
BM " but, It’s not like he did anything really freaky" You can't be serious, it must be the normalising. "No offence to the woman involved but she’s just one of the thousands of people the PM meets every week" Some of the victims were young girls, not ...
Congrats to the All Blacks for winning "Team of the Year" in Berlin.
BM "John Key is probably the most centered PM we’ve ever had." I suppose if you call a pony tail pulling PM as being centered, but normalising this behavior only serves to lower morality of the whole of society, but then who needs morality any way, right.
Oh, Dunedin must be a very, very, very small town, or are you one of the privileged few, certainly the Nats made the distinction back in 2010 when they altered the TAX regime, which gave a distinct advantage to a few, or do you disagree with that.
BM "Can’t just keep producing people if there’s no purpose." ????????............
Colonial Viper Yeah, but that still includes "employment", therefore you agree that's the most important aspect of ones life.
Colonial Viper Any suggestions, besides winning the lottery or inheriting a couple of mill, or maybe propagating a money tree.
Byd0nz Yes, capitalism is corrupt, but communism is even more corrupt.

NZJester A perfect observation of the real world economics for small businesses in NZ, and as Sabine confirms, high unemployment has a negative impact on small businesses and ends up flowing through the whole economy, increasing unemployment, and so the ...
Whyalla is only one of three towns suffering from this fate, Orange just closed it's Electrolux factory, losing over 300 jobs, been there since the forties, and Townsville's Copper and Nickle plant just layed off 600 more workers after serious ...
RedLogix +1 "I would put 80% of the difference between NZ and Aus down to one thing. Here in Aus there is still a functioning media; it’s rambunctious, noisy and has obvious biases. But at least you get both sides of the story. Well more than this; you ...
James Have you been living in a bubble, McCully has a reputation for this type of behavior spreading back to the "leaky Home Syndrome", for which he was responsible, and then there is the corrupt Saudi affair, the man has no conscience or integrity, ...
IMO, the nail is already in the coffin for Key, the tide has turned, the media and supporters are trying to prop him up with positive polls, but history says he's a goner in the next election, people are waking up from their media induced coma's and ...
Anne My wife had a similar experience with one of her previous employers, at the final hearing, the employer thought they had the case wrapped up, my wife is not good at defending herself, so knowing the circumstances of the case, I spoke up and put ...
Ooops, apologies! Regardless of this case, all too often, the "privileged" are able to manipulate outcomes in court hearings, justice, sometimes, appears to be a commodity.
I wonder if he'll be [r0b: deleted for obvious legal reasons] now? History repeating it's self, ignoring evidence from children, because their children, and therefore lack credibility.
Yep, gone are the days of current affairs shows like Town and Around with Keith Bracey.
The ugly side of Aus, the NSW Police force has a staff of over 25000, they can assemble a group of a 1000 members at any time without impacting on existing police duties. I don't know if you saw the article on TV, the man was imprisoned for two years for ...
The RM poll is the most encouraging poll for you guys, but is consistently showing (under MMP) that the govt will likely change at the next election, you can mince the numbers anyway you like, but the trend is against you, the sheeple are slowly waking up,...
PR Read the RM poll, their is no fourth term for Key, 45% doesn't cut it in a democracy, the next govt won't include your dearly beloved leader so both of you will have to throw your toys out the window.

She's obviously going for the pay rise on this one, I suppose, at least it says that's it's only an opinion, and her opinion has no value.
Yay, $25m down the drain in wasted egoism, the nail is in the coffin for Key.

I bet the odds are much better to gamble, if the underdog comes through, but I don't know how the NZ public would handle the change.
