Get fucked. New Zealand should have opposed the resolution. Jerusalem is the eternal capital of Israel.
I'm not showing social responsibility. My accountant will do everything legally possible to minimise my tax bill. That is not "avoiding" tax. It is simply applying the tax codes as designed.
What I am detecting is people thinking that maybe the government is not going to do anything too radical at all. The fiscal thing is still a worry. But on the fundamentals, it is not changing anything. And it may even tackle some problems with refreshed ...
Perhaps I need to get a better accountant. He prepares my personal and company tax returns. And every year I need to pay about $75000 in tax. Huh. He never told me about this option of "avoiding" tax.
You sound sound a bit crazy. Michael Cullen being appointed to a working group is not a function of MMP. I don't have major issues with the working group. I would have preferred more tax experts. But hopefully this weakness will be attenuated by the ...
What is 'taping'? And how is it connected to a digger driver who broke the pipeline? Unfortunately shit happens. I guess the digger driver can be sued and bankrupted if it makes you feel better. I would prefer to know how it happened, and see lessons ...
Sorry. Your syntax is too dense. I gave up after three sentences.
I have no idea what you are on about.
What is a party grabber?
That is pretty stupid.
You know you sound like a character from Animal Farm, right?
That is pretty ignorant. I devoted 4 years to working full time on Climate change mitigation. The evidence for anthropogenic climate change is overwhelming. But you are entitled to your view I guess. What is open for debate is the best New Zealand ...
Air New Zealand is a commercial airline. They will pick up any charter that pays market rates. To turn down business would be acting contrary to the interests of shareholders. You are ridiculous.
As The Standard is a Labour Party blog, I thought that you would be supportive of the Government's climate change policy. I was very reassured by the Prime Minister's announcement on mining permits. Similarly, I don't see any significant ramping up of ...
Get fucked. Advocating an end to trriade, air and road travel is a ridiculous comment.
Go fuck a dead dog.
I presume you back this view up by not owning a car, and travelling by sailing boat when you leave New Zealand?
It is empty rhetoric.
I found it empty rhetoric. Precisely what policies is she advocating?
I have doubts that Ms Kelsey would ever agree to the prerequisites for being on the negotiation team. Firstly, vetting by the NZSIS. Secondly, signing a non disclosure agreement that commits her to keeping secret all details of negotiations.
You should be depressed.
I think we all understand how MMP works. However it could be modified to work better. Legislate to require the Party that wins the most votes to be in government. That Party would lead negotiations to form a government. If those negotiations fail within a ...
You are being disrespectful. It is a tradition. They have worn the host nominated costume every meeting since 1993.
It is called governing. It was always unthinkable that any New Zealand government would refuse to sign. Trade liberalisation and capital liberalisation and protection of shareholders from vexatious governments. All core New Zealand values that have had ...
Where did you move to?
Being in Government carries the responsibility of, well, Government. You can't carry your activism to trade negotiations. Canada may have killed things. But that aside, I am impressed by the Government's approach to the TPP negotiation. Of course I am ...
It is not just about the interests of New Zealand.
I recommend you celebrate in style. http://www.stevens.co.nz/m-product?p=6271642
Fonterra paid and Kelsey was not invited.
What does that mean!? Every New Zealander with a substantial Kiwisaver portfolio is effectively a corporate shareholder? Or do you rejoice when your portfolio tanks?
Well you have been extremely naive. Activism and protests are fine in Opposition. But these guys now have the responsibility of government. To their credit they look like they are delivering. If the Minister of Finance can now do the same fiscally, this ...
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 ...
