Using current poll data to predict a 2014 future is questionable. What happens now has some relevance, but now is not great times especially in terms the economy. People are being polled about who they would elect today without any `real’ change taking ...
This will eventually bite Labour in the bum with that 4-8% of soft Nats voters. 1. People are too busy with their lives to give a f*** with what happens at QT. Labour is coming across as someone with no alternative message, and rather than being an elected...
Both sides of the argument are using illogical stats to prove their point. No wonder the population of NZ is getting bored. I thought Norman’s press release over the weekend was weak: that because only 10% of the population pre-registered then 90% of the ...

" a stain that may threaten his hold on Ohariu (if Labour puts up a decent candidate)" I do not think so Ohariu Dunne voters (not supporters) are more National lending rather than Labour. When Dunne retires or looks like losing this seat will revert to ...
It does not matter what key or banks have done. This is about a guy in opposition trying to tell the 4%-8% of voters to move towards him. This is not about some shares he forgot but rather his main family bank account (based on his salary being deposited ...
As I have worked extensively in a number of different countries - therefore by default I have had a number of overseas bank accounts. I could not list all the accounts without going to my records but the one account I do know that exist is the one my ...

“The Green Party are supporting moves to limit the ability of non-New Zealanders to buy property in New Zealand, following a poll which showed 2/3 of respondents agreed with the idea.” Forget about the TV3 item – I was confused by the Greens statement as ...
Not a great idea veutoviper "A cheap whistle from a $2 shop blown down the phone also works wonders …." They already have your number. You have to ask yourself 'what could happen next". Most scam callers will move onto the next call (done automatically for...
Dave - you cannot make things up The dopey comment was in reference to a universal supplement to ALL children whereby parents on say >$100k income would also be paid. If you think that a universal supplement is the way to go then your comment is valid. You...

Good luck with the next injunction. I live in a neighbouring community to the CMP plant and have heard and read a lot of what is going on over the past few weeks. I hope everyone can get back to work soon, this can not be a benefit to either party having ...
QTS, I believe it has been in court already, and from what was in the paper it was rushed through in urgency as the people locked out are not being paid. The Judge has ruled in favour of the company. TVR, I may be a little naive, but if the company has ...
