A system that throws out comments for no or incorrect reasons is dodgy, whether intentional or otherwise. Commenting is a privilege, but knowing comments/people may disappear for no reason puts the blog in a whole other light.
It told me I was posting to fast, but I've posted a lot faster this morning without a problem so... Chucked it in pastbin for now, I don't expect it to be a popular comment but I can't imagine I broke any rules: https://pastebin.com/jKSsBiJN
Nope.
More beds, force prisoners into sweat boxes and overcrowding, or release prisoners who under our current prison system haven't been reformed at all? More beds is the only option here to protect both prisoners and the public, followed closely by reform both...
Ah it looks like I am, good to know the standards dodgy practices make it terrible place for debate. [Whats with the attitude? There are all sorts of reasons comments may be held up including technical reasons. Besides commenting is a privilege not a right...
Comment won't post, testing testing, am I being auto censored based on content??
And the greens are defacto Labour partners, Labour doesn't want to find itself in Nationals position of no-one to partner with. Heck, NZ First might be the ones to back down, maybe they really don't want to be with National that badly. Maybe winnie would ...
Those policies mean nothing if the TPPA is signed.
Decent speech, hugely disappointing the resignation at the end there to this going though and only commiting to try to prevent future such deals. Why not threaten to pull confidence and supply? Sure, National and NZ First /could/ govern, and it would be a ...
If humanity won't prevent climate change then we should at least prepare for it, start at least preparing to mass evacuate the coasts for example. At that level we're looking at local government planning, who far from planning for the future can't even ...
If John Key was water off a ducks butt, then Simon Bridges is goatse...
The process was quiet and smooth, but it's effectively the same as Labours nine years of fail. Helen failed to groom anyone, and apparently so did Key - oh well, nine years of Labour it is I guess.
Jacinda made the promise in one of the first leaders debates, if she misrepresented her own views as party policy then that's her problem. The only person who mentioned conscience voting at the time was Bill English, and he beheld himself to the religious ...
"abortion is wrong" - why?
Whatever your view on abortion there's no need to restrict by law, if your view is against abortions then don't have abortions. Simple. This is a law against individual choices with individual outcomes, society has no right or moral authority to insert ...
I disagree, in all instances where abortion remains a safer option than birth (however low those risks and however slight the difference) pregnant people should have the choice to abort, at most death of a fetus should only be barred when birth/live ...

It's a human rights issue, the nation deserves better law even if the need for abortions ended tomorrow.
If they can't do it, especially if they can't do it because their own members vote against, then they will look stupid. More importantly if they can't do it they'll be failing an election promise, not to mention the uterus bearers of New Zealand.
They're both human rights issues, if anyone has a valid arguement against bodily autonomy and human rights I'd like to hear it.
I'd given up hope they were ever going to even mention abortion again.
Labour. Different colour, same government.
Is it available online somewhere still? I am curious what all the controversy is about.

So you'd exclude children from politics because it's "inappropriate" to talk to them /at all/? Riiiight.
TBH any parent worried about this should never have let their child install snapchat in the first place, this is hardly Chris's fault.
It already has a caption: "Bluff New Zealand" - sounds about right.
This, this is the other reason to force humane practice.
Or because it reduces males to the sum of their anatomy, sexism doesn't just hurt women.
Sex appeal is a broad range of things, to be comprehensive you'd have to have mandatory burqas, and probably a ban on laughing and speaking. Maybe even a mandatory unpleasent smelling purfume. Let's face up to the fact that removing from view is never ...
Jacinda's the lipstick, the Labour Party is the pig. Eventually the pig's going to fart or something and people will remember the substance of the party they're looking at. I /seriously/ don't get how people didn't understand the annology, is the left ...
