Who is john key? chairman of a foreign bank board. he clearly values health and lives as worth less than profit and greed. his expertise in managing avoidable deaths ; illnesses. hospitalisations is dubious. the media clearly are propaganda machines (VERY ...
There are a lot of rich (some very, some extremely, some absurdly) who must be pondering which parties to donate to. Pandemics and global warming plus assorted "global power" strutting are stressing trade supply lines. I wonder what the "taxpayers union" ...
The biggest advantage nuclear (powered and not necessarily nuclear armed) submarines is that they have very little need to surface in a life time of 20 to 30 years. Consumables like food, routine maintenance will require surfacing at safe bases. They can ...
cock is an innocent word. womble refers to imaginary cute creatures. seymour is neither innocent or cute.
Pandemics and climate change demand combined government behaviour not media attracting nonsense. The media need no assistance from politicians.
The natz have never accepted MMP. Now reality bites. MMP does not accept natz. The wealthy smug "born to rule" capitalist british imperialist class mind set probably still works in Epsom and no doubt in .federated farmer electorates. It may have worked in ...
Given the junk yard that is now the national party the only possible alternative to JC is Simon Bridges. It will be interesting to see what the wealthy capitalists (including the downtrodden farmers (federated or not) choose to lead a "national" party, ...
They have Bridges .
My first nomination for "chicken little of the year" Would be D Seymour of act fame. Caught a clip of him on TV1 news this evening mouthing off how our government was not doing enough vaccination. He compared NZ unfavourably with Australia!!! Sigh.
Collins is reading from PR script written by not very well informed PR writers. Well within living memory to say some one, some thing ought to be "bottled" was and still could be complimentary. It meant worth keeping, preserving. Think pickles, fruit, wine...
seymour wants everything managed HIS way. YAAWN.
National (remember them) wrecked social housing (among other things). To pick up the wreckage after douglas/prebble/moore/bolger/richardson/shipley/english/key "administrations" eviscerated social services what do you expect. Business got tax breaks tax ...
Politicians will say (and do) anything to get headlines/attention. He and his ilk crave media attention. Seymour is "jumping up and down and waving his knickers in the air". My hat tip to Hogsnort Rupert.
At last gosman is honest. act and the nazis are identical. Good Grief ! A breath of honesty from gosman.
Follow the money, if you do not think the IOC is corrupt (extremely). Find the money trail (good luck). Sport is sport, that is playing competitively for fun and enjoyment. I happily contribute to local community recreational groups. The olympic games are ...
Graeme, you are so correct. Do you recall the picture of the very intellectual farmer holding up a picture of our PM stating "just a pretty communist"? Very informative of the of the farmer mindset. STUPID.
Thank you farmers. Your parade through my rural town convinced me you are stupid, ignorant, illiterate, loud mouthed, strutting, play ground bullies, showing contempt for people who are not farmers. It is time you all grew up. Who organised this charade? ...
I watched the protest tractors utes and cars bring our provincial town to a standstill for way too long. Some had signage on them. None of it logical. I became depressed. That parade portrayed farmers as illogical, ignorant, arrogant spoilt playground ...
The natz have always had a british empire upper class "born to rule" contempt for people who disagree with those values. It has caught up with them. This move is dangerously close to playing ethnic superiority issues as politically viable. This is the 21st...
.Overseas tourism is going to vanish, petroleum fuelled. Where does that leave tourist reliant businesses. (at least they will stop paying crappy slave "wages". No tourist no business. Where does that leave our food exporting business. I despair for the ...
No legislation has been promoted. advantage and JC(ollins) are omniscient, as usual. Saturday can be a dull day on the net. No legislation has been put up. No public consultation on proposed legislation has been announced. Why the chatter?
Hey, this is the village market square, pub, club wherever people gather to discuss , comment etc, etc, It is refreshingly civil. The leftish leaning can lead to blind spots on threads. Mind you, there is at least one commenter who is ram rod vertical that...
What is wrong about voting for septuagenerians? Are you an ageist? Time you grew up.
Cyclists (and I am one) need to grow up and realise that they are intruding on motorist space that was never designed for cyclists (or paid for by them). What is so bad about getting off the bicycle at an intersection and walking the bike across? Respect ...
All this talk about electricity leads me to wonder about the viability of our hydro lakes, given the uncertainties of climate change. There has been a distinct shift in weather behaviour, seasonally in the past few years in my area of the lower north ...
Media presenters, desperately short of something to (breathlessly) present information advance themselves and their opinions as "news". I am not picking on Vance most of them do it, from time to time. Hey there are deadlines to meet. Bugger the truth.
Now come on, be fair. Natz mp hopefuls are born with a self entitled born to rule knowledge. They have to be voted in simply because who they are. A majority of them were, very probably loud mouthed arrogant play ground bullies. It shows. Natz love them. ...
All politicians need to be supremely confident (egotistic?) to even consider running for parliament. The natz pollies appear to have a "born to rule" gene in them. This combined with (very secretive donations from business and farm interests has allowed ...
After 30 years in the bear pit "family reasons" suddenly become important? Every single public resignation, in or out of parliament, sports organisation, religious group etc cites "family". It is PR (smirk) BS. Family probably means there has to be some ...
You are so correct (I nearly wrote "right"). The natz were born out of desperation When Labour swept into power in the 1930s. It was a coalition of farmer ("backbone of the country") and "townie" capitalists who despised Labour. This was after some 60 to ...
What richardson did with the mother of all budgets is well documented. and recorded. At what age one becomes aware of it is irrelevant, as is p dunne. Why do the media keep giving him oxygen?
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 ...
