Well, I don't mind disagreeing with an Australian. If you can't see the obvious transfer of power then so be it.
"A respite in the bile put forth by the nats". BBBB Baby , you just ain't seen nothing yet,oh no, you ain't seen nothing yet....... you ain't been around ,as the song by Bachman Turner Overdrive goes.
If Winston is the answer then we really are stuffed. He is a toad and he always has been. In fact he always has been a has been . I remember his Tory flashiness and obnoxiousness from Albert Park in the late sixties/early seventies. He's never changed.
Get real Sanctuary. The Russians have set red lines and they mean it, whilst the disorganised NATO forces keep goading them. They won't know what's hit them when it happens.
"The American empire is much like the British empire before it". They are really one and the same. The Americans took over the British Empire after WW1 because the American loans for the war bankrupted them. Hence their special (toadying) relationship.
I'll go one step further too. I very much doubt that the monotheists of this planet can stop their "Our god is bigger and better than yours". This is a major stumbling block for mankind.
'who or what will pick up this essential role'. The example of how the USA has gone surely proves it has to be a 'what' rather than a 'who'. We basically need a United Nations that is strong, independent and incorruptible. Is that possible, knowing human ...
Back in the 1900s the USA convinced itself that they are the exceptional Country of this world, which 'gave' them the right to walk all over everyone else. They own NATO and they dominate the UN and have nigh on 1,000 military sites around the world and ...
Luxon has a little more sense than I credited him with simply by demoting the pitiful David Bennett .
"Lose all hope of a promised land". I guess you believe Luxon is offering a "brighter future", just like his bestie did. Dream on Blade.
Any half decent Government would not allow property investment to be the only game in town. Both National and Labour are useless because they are Neoliberals and have knowingly done all this damage to our Country.
Exactly AB, and that is why I prefer the state controlled Capitalism of China to the "unaccountable private power" of American Capitalism (they are both dead ends, but one is failing more than the other).
Many people who speak freely in the USA rapidly die from car accidents or jumping out of windows etc etc, especially in the run up to court cases. Move on, nothing to see here. God bless America. Yeah ,right.
The Upper Room. Look it up.
What's the bet that the dirty politics brigade are anxiously salivating over fresh opportunities ?
Bit of a no brainer really. What would you rather do? Stick around and be Judith's lap dog or get out and do some good ( and get some brownie points)?
To weka ,and everyone,apparently the "frogs in a pot" analogy is just an old wives tale. Experiments done have found the frogs jump out as the water heats. I was glad when I recently learned this because I like frogs.
Oh we know her alright observer and personally I am glad she is staying on so that she can continue with her nasty underhand revenge antics. It is exactly what National deserves. Maybe leave Bridges in there too now that he will always be damaged goods.
Well done Sabine. I hope James 2 gets to read your reply when he gets back from tennis.
Very good, very well thought out and very depressing. And yet I see many, many hopeful youngsters pressing on with hope , and many having babies in these strange times. The 'perfect storm' seems to be just around the corner in so many areas of our ...
Exactly ianmac, and the opportunity to put your glasses back on!
Aha, caught you!
I must confess that I was fishing for Alwyn.
So Devon Conway punches his bat and breaks his hand. So much for "a champion team will always beat a team of champions". His lack of self discipline has just helped Australia's chances of taking the final.
Well how about the prediction that Luxon would be rejected by a large majority. A fundamentalist Chritstian as a Prime Minister is not a viable option.
Well said Adrian. It is well past time to stop pussyfooting around .If the Greens want to survive they need to disavow Labour and get back into activism for the environment and social justice. Atm they are becoming a laughing stock with their wokism and ...
I want to know why we have virtually put all our eggs in the pfizer basket. They, like all the Pharma companies, are untrustworthy. Let's see independent research results of the range of vaccines available( and that includes the Sputnik) and make 3 or 4 of...
The wall to wall pro Western propaganda fed to us everyday has worked in it's aim to vilify anyone who disagrees with the USA. The old mantra of "God bless America" has been proven time and time again( by the meddling fingers of the CIA and covert/overt ...
Yes, full marks to Cuba. They have have strong social services for all their people and have always been very helpful in helping out in overseas medical disaster needs. It's a pity we are not "allowed" to admit and emulate Cuba's successes. Another mark ...
Yay, technology will save us all, just like the American cavalry. sarc.
It is almost as if the Right (ie Business) have planned for this to happen ? They must be delighted watching it all turn to custard.
