https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/local-government/122116574/auckland-council-budget-rates-up-35-per-cent-and-more-than-500-jobs-to-go If found it strange that if you were asked if you'd like a 3.5% increase or a 2.5% increase...where was the ...
Well it looks like that the Nat MP took a leaf out of a Labour MP's playbook IMHO. https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/money/70155168/labours-half-baked-property-data-turns-chinese-buyers-into-scapegoats
Can't say I agree that Nash should have apologised...he's only made NZF look stronger. https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/300046795/stuart-nash-apologises-to-winston-peters-and-shane-jones-over-fisheries-comments
Frankly, I think the PM should have accepted his resignation the first time he offered it.
Not quite a broken promise, but one that failed to meet the expectations of delivery...common theme it appears.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12338776 Not the new people were expecting I suspect...money well spent?
If that is the case, were you happy when John Key was appointed?
"The government has, in the act of investing taxpayer’s dollars, steered the firm, Air NZ, toward being a social institution, and they have recognised aviation as something of a public good." This was where I got lost. In my view the Government has not ...
I agree with what you have put to me. That's why I doubt Bloomfield would be a good fit for Labour if it is was proposed that he should replace the current Minister of Health.
"One option that's been discussed is bumping Māori and Pacific patients up a priority band in certain instances, the Weekend Herald understands. Another might be making Māori and Pacific ethnicity a factor when working out a priority rating score." https...
Say your wish was granted, I doubt he would fit Labour, as its likely ideas such as setting health targets, centralising health boards, providing services by need not ethnicity may be pushed to provide better outcomes for National Health.
I thought we were supposed to be doing things to reduce our carbon footprint?
Are you aware that NZ Post runs the same model as Freightways? I suspect that is why you will not see Tywford lift a finger on this issue. Perhaps what you should be really asking is why was a badly worded wage subsidy scheme rolled out? All good ...
Wow! Street knowledge more powerful than you'd think. I wonder if it's ironic that she knows she's being pimped by the government? https://youtu.be/UGkywE_uCEI
I hope you agree that we should be planning something to create the 2 country bubble and not just wait until the statistics indicate that all is good.
What infrastructure was damaged by Covid-19 compared to an earthquake? "There is no playbook for the recovery we are about to embark on. But nor do we need one." Does this mean policy made up on the run/urgency?
The humans are dead.... https://youtu.be/2IPAOxrH7Ro
Pretty much equivalent to how WINZ audits their stuff...
Many of the people that vote today were born after 1991, so they will have no view on austerity like you may have.
If in their disclosure they did agree to stop pushing the RW agenda, but kept all the big buck salaries, would that entice you to donate?
I hope this moment does not ingrain into a us dependence on the Government post lock down. In my view Australia has opened the welfare tap far greater than it has here in NZ. But, as quickly as it has opened the tap, even more quickly it will be at turning...
The boss knows whats essential... https://www.nzherald.co.nz/national-video/news/video.cfm?c_id=1503075&gal_cid=1503075&gallery_id=218831
Some people are being put up in 5 star hotels at the expense of the Government. Most of these rooms will not have anything but a coffee maker/hot water jug. If NZ does the same for international arrivals, they should put them up in serviced apartments that...
Well Scotland's Chief Medical officer may disagree with you regard flouting of lockdown rules. https://www.smh.com.au/world/europe/scotland-s-chief-medical-officer-resigns-after-flouting-lockdown-rules-20200406-p54hdq.html
Is this the type of action that should be taken? https://youtu.be/snMl0XcSzOU
Any T&C's to your proposal?
Why? He got disciplined the same way parent would discipline their child in a situation like this.
Yay! a new tax!
...so if there was no Covid-19, then she would have got this deal too?
Yeah...lets get into a real 'woke' online argument..."you stated 'X' so you must provide a link to prove your statement of 'X' exists" [You made up shit, and you know it. Of course, you cannot provide a link of your BS attribution to the Government because...
Cats, with their independent spirit and beguiling purrs, have captured the hearts of humans for millennia. In New Zealand, felines are no exception, boasting the highest national cat ownership rate globally [definition cat nz cat foundation]. An estimated 1.134 million pet cats grace Kiwi households, compared to 683,000 dogs ...
