Are you saying you need life insurance to get a mortgage. You might need house insurance but not life.
That is the best reply ever LOL
Personally I think all sides are currently terrible in question time. Some exclusions from that would be David Parker, James Shaw, Tracey Martin.
I think you might find Chris73 was being a touch sarcastic. What makes it even better for Chris 73 is your taking credit for it by saying Thanks.
That is great news needed to happen for clarity. If found that the book is right. There should be action to hold those to account I suspect most Kiwis would find that too much and want action. On the flip side if it’s found that NZDF is correct and the ...
I find car racing incredibly dull. But I know lots of others who love it and as you say have cars that they race. They can’t get crash insurance just fire and theft due to the type of car and how it’s modified. They accept that and the risk. I am not a fan...
Any changes to MMP should be the choice of the public not the sitting govt. So I hope your right and it goes for a vote in 2020. It will be interesting to see the vote for threshold change. I personally don’t think it will change.
When was the referendum to continue with it and that was the time to ask the public change the threshold I don’t recall it but have lived offshore for a number of years. The threshold is a major part of MMP and I would want a say on it and not leave it to ...
I completely disagree. 5% is what it is, it you change that then the whole of MMP should be looked at in a referendum and the people of NZ can decide if they want a change of 5%.
Hey MS. Thanks
Hi Question to @weka @Bill or other authors/Mods Is it possible to have a page similar to US elections regarding the US/Russia/UK/Syria/Spy/nerve agent debate that is dominating Open Mike day after day. It is good it is being discussed and debated, but it ...
Can you please highlight which part of my comment you are referring to as I dont believe i mentioned anything of following. "injecting a rebate and subsidy system into sports clubs and t.v. coverage, as a social and economic national good" If you are ...
Sorry, perhaps I need to read this a couple more times to understand what part of my comment you are referring to. Perhaps you could help out and eleborate to which of my points your comment is referring to.
The issue is the cost of the behind the scenes operations for broadcasting live games. For Free to Air to do this it would require massive investment to build up a capability to broadcast as many events as they do now ensuring the quality of the ...
I think the issue is no dB knows what the dimensions of each value are worth if we did then there is ability to debate. So many people have jumped on the this bad without understanding the background. What is the percentage deported per population origin ...
It is interesting. I love excell but we use power BI now. I was thinking a similar thought re how is each variable weighted. I would have expected in a INZ document an origin component. That just kinda makes sense. So I would like to know number of ...
That was funny in the context of what I wrote. Nice. Given that level of humour why resort to name calling clearly you are smarter than that.
Highlighted as humour and not a dig. Poor attempt.
Hey. What is with the abuse. Surely you can debate without personal abuse.
Hi are you in the industry as I would be interested in your knowledge of the contracts. As I have seen from the freight industry most contracts contain a fuel clause or surcharge component to the pricing that makes it immediate. The surcharge is added on ...
Exactly. We have have robust and open political discussions I also love that she is strong and respect her views. She supports national and I know why and I respect that and she respect my different voting views.
Unless you change reality then it’s going to happen. So with your vast IQ and superiority over the rest of us (humour not a dig), what needs to happen when this increase in excise will hurt the most vulnerable. Because through all the rethoric and call ...
Had a good night last night. The consulate launch of the sevens have to admit I thought I would be in the dog box coming home at 4am out with some AB and sevens legends. My wonderful and semi perfect wife had paid her debt for a lost bet re the coalition ...
Hi Over what period was the increase. A one off 17 cents or over the nine year period. Just so there is some context. Was the 10 to 20 percent in the annual road user charges or petrol. If road user then you can’t compare apples and oranges when petrol ...
I think in this case something like fuel is emotive and possibly not rational given we one of most expensive places for at pump price. This is something that effects everyone in the pocket and we don’t know what the effect to overall prices and inflation.
I don’t know the answer to this but when was the last time there was a increase in this size. Plus you do realise the flow in effect to other goods and services that require transportation of products. Those businesses will pass on the increase to the ...
Yes an interesting question. Each individual will view it differently and also differently based on the product. For example an increase on alcohol or tobacco would not cause too much unrest with the general population as not everyone smokes or drinks. But...
An excise or excise tax is any duty on manufactured goods which is levied at the moment of manufacture, rather than at sale. This will get passed into the consumer and recovered and paid by the manufacturer. It’s just a different form of taxation but the ...
Hi Kat be keen to hear why you think this garbage. The only thing I see that is wrong is the claim it has lost them 2020 election. Is the information about the increase in fuel excise/tax (whatever you want to call it) incorrect I may be wrong but this is ...
I commented in daily review about this. As a kid my brothers and I and the local nippers used to love watching the footy or Cricket then going outside and playing and pretending to be our favourite cricketer or rugby player. Saturday morning sport was one ...
Ish Sohdi and Neil Wagner what a fight. I grew up watching the late great Martin Crowe and Hadlee. At School and after school or when you caught up with your mates you either wanted to be Hadlee or Crowe in the backyard. After school and the weekends wasn’...
