For those interested in playing Whamageddon you can find the rules here.
If we wanted to get to the goals immediately we would do that. In the meantime we would do the incremental things like improve imported cars sustainability and make sure that we could store hydro power when times are good. Your suggestion is not what was ...
NZ First was voted out in 2020.
Please do. As a heading it could be "National is taking the pRISs".
Citizens have a right to use te reo in dealing with Government Departments. Unless there is a pool of public servants who can speak in te reo the right is an illusory one.
Fuck up theory normally applies. But the error was noted by Newshub a couple of days ago. Maybe National's spin merchants and advisors missed it but I don't think so. More likely is that Bishop did not read the memo.
Haha I am catholic but I still had to google that ..l
Ad is really complex. There is no misinformation. He chooses to review and question dominant left wing thought. He does us all a service.
Agreed.

Genocide? Absolute tosh. It’s a war. Since the formation of the League of Nations and of the UN the world mostly has tried to work out more civilised ways of engaging in war and ways to leave innocent civilians out of it.
So where do you propose that the Jewish people should go? Do you think for a moment that they would be welcomed back into Europe where they were expelled? I would like to think they could sort things out with the Palestinians and agree to giving the two ...
My father among others.
Thanks Mike a good and brave post. In 2021 the good people of the New Lynn LEC put up an amendment to try and strengthen members' ability to have a say in who the leader was by tweaking the original proposal by increasing the threshold for the caucus veto ...
You should put it up. Labour is having a deep discussion right now about what happened in the election and this issue is one of the important issues for us to understand.
I have a similar background. Thanks to the trade union movement and summer work in a factory I managed to get through University with minimal debt that was paid off shortly afterwards. My kids each had reasonably significant debt getting through University...
I agree Labour should do some soul searching. However Pagani's and Edwards' contributions feel like the use of right wing gocha arguments rather than a serious discussion about the issue. The problem with their message is that the small amount of analysis ...
Lots and lots of discussion about the leadership happened at our recent LEC meeting. I am sure that other parts of the party are also doing some deep soul searching.
It is not a Labour party policy to keep the tracks closed. Some were closed to protect Kauri. Others have been closed by storm damage but are being opened as remedial work is being conducted. But this is not a party political policy or stance. Crime has ...
Any need for you to insult South Auckland? It is a rich vibrant community and there is no need to feed into right wing framing of the community.
On the ground response has changed dramatically. Interestingly Labour New Lynn came up against Democracy NZ group last week at the Avondale market. I thought there would be trouble but we all finished up fist bumping each other. Maybe we (Labour) needs to ...
"Primal fear of stealing by the privileged points to the traditional power structure of the establishment." You mean like taking $2 billion off the poorest and giving it to wealthy landlords? But that is the reality of what National is proposing. This is ...
You are quoting Nicola Willis on the Standard as an argument for something?
Bishop has gone all conspiratorial on it. From a National Party press release: “Today, the CTU has attempted to launch another attack on National’s tax relief plan. [snip] “The CTU ‘economist’, Craig Renney, was most recently advisor to Grant Robertson. ...
I hope you are wrong ...
Their calculation of increased incarceration costs was based on changes they clearly intend to make to sentencing laws. My take is that the benefit cuts by themselves will cost a huge amount. As Bill English said, prisons are a moral and fiscal failure. ...
Cheers. I enjoy the work. There is always the hope things can be swung around for them. But the politicing sends me spare ... And yep the last few weeks clearly shows how important this election is.
Thanks comrade.
But your analysis does not involve even the most cursory examination of the words of the treaty, rather it relies on something someone who I have never heard of said.
Que? The rights attach to Maori status as indigenous people not because of the colour of their skin. I take it you also think that it is morally unjust that Maori die 7 years earlier to Pakeha?
Can't you do better than this? Third hand comments from a European Reverend recorded in a book that has few followers apart from Julian Batchelor? How about you do something brave and argue the actual words of the treaty? Not some third hand guestimate of ...
