Unfortunately, there are large numbers just like him out there..........
Cameron who?
The best part is, he misses out on his primeministerial pension by 4 days - he would have qualified for it on Friday. I pick Scott Morrison to challenge Turnbull after the dust has settled, and he is scarier than Abbott-truly nasty.
Well, we're on course for a bumper El Nino this year as well.......... check this out http://sealevel.jpl.nasa.gov/elnino2015/1997vs2015-animated.gif
As opposed to a right wing ideologue lunatic blinded by greed and hate!
Too true. Interesting blog on financial black holes here: - http://cluborlov.blogspot.ca/2015/06/the-care-and-feeding-of-financial-black.html#more
Paying of the interest on the money they borrowed previously.
The Greeks are in deep shite whichever way they go. Surely it's better to go in the direction that has a way of getting out of the shite, than staying mired in debt-bondage slavery for the next 30 yrs, which is where "austerity" will take them.
FFS !!!!!!! Terminal stupidity all round - - - - !
Well - Michael Hudson on this..."I’m in Germany now (on my way to Brussels), and have heard from Germans that the Greeks are lazy and don’t pay taxes. There is little recognition that what they call “the Greeks” are really the oligarchs. They have gained ...
Well Gossie, perhaps this may enlighten you http://michael-hudson.com/2015/06/greece-on-behalf-of-europe/
Want to see how quickly politicians suddenly become thin-skinned precious little bundles.......
"I have no doubt that Banks was at the best very negligent," Having known Banks for many years (not close - who wants to be), JB is never negligent. He knows exactly what is going on!
"Has the spirit of ANZAC Day become subsumed by the commercial imperative? " EVERYTHING has become subsumed by the commercial imperative! Thank you NeoCons for destroying the dreams of my youth!
Bio-fuel is a crock of shit. The amount of productive land needed to grow it far outweighs any supposed benefits, environmentally.
The Guardian the best? God help us then - it's rapidly sliding down the propaganda/western leaders can do no wrong, hole. It's a mere shadow of what it was, even 5 yrs ago. The Independent?
You forgot Paula Bennett and a few others in that lot
I'm in the reverse situation - I by some products (model cars, made in China) FROM New Zealand, because not paying NZ GST on exports, and not having to pay GST on imports under a certain value, makes the items very competitive compared to buying them from ...
Greg Palast had a good article on the situation last week. He should know - he used to be a Forensic Economist in the IMF and studied under Friedman......... http://www.gregpalast.com/trojan-hearse-greek-elections-and-the-euro-leper-colony/
If they don't drop the Euro and revert to the drachma, they will remain, basically, buggered!
"What makes setting the record for hottest year in 2014 doubly impressive is that it occurred despite the fact we’re still waiting for the start of El Niño. " - and the sun was at it's cool cycle, where normally, temperatures would have dropped a little.
In practice - we've got a local guy who's onto his third farm, reckons it's pretty easy - just takes a bit of time - he reckons 3-4 yrs - building up the microbial count etc. Should be easier in NZ than West Aus.
Leaning to the right - they're more right wing than any Tory government before 1980 - if they leant any further they could rename themselves "Tory - Heavy"
Labour in the UK are just Tory slightly lighter, and far further to the right than any Tory government of the 70's.
If they don't, they're dead meat to myself and many of my friends and aquaintances. Nice, has nothing to do with it!
"I say to the Slaters, Grahams, Odgers, Farrars, Edes, Lusks, Williamses, Collinses and all their ilk, you are destroying some good people and good society." The worrying thing is - they don't care. I would say they get a perverse pleasure out of the whole...
Key has never been centre right! Most people under 50 have no conception of what a centre right government is like - the same people who call Labour centre left? Labour hasn't been a leftist government since douglas and co knifed it in the back!
" but where is the problem if those responsible for our security reasonably retrieve whatever bits of that information they are able to access." The problem is in what the definition of "reasonably retrieve" might be. Your idea of reasonably retrieve may ...
Don't they just - but - the worrying thing is - they don't care! Their stated aim is to keep Key in office. as an aside - has TDB been hacked? None of the articles come up.....
From Facebook....""Stuff.co.nz is a joke. One of my friends is an editor there and she told me the bosses are open about the fact their aim is to get key re-elected." - Louisa Berry So....par for the course for all the second rate hacks.........
As Dr Paul Craig Roberts says:- "I am concerned about the crisis that Washington has orchestrated, because I believe it is leading to war, which will be nuclear. Are you ready to be destroyed over Washington’s lies about one Malaysian airliner? I am ...
