Well done, Phillip. It's so easy to turn away, to judge and to ostracise. So often all that is lacking is a willingness to listen followed by a few encouraging words. You'll have him on a yellow lentil dahl next month.
Yes.
Last time we got up on our hind legs, more than a few were ready to blather on about nazi's, freedumb, foreign right wing interference, death threats and repeat the rivers of filth moniker. Better take that energy and organise, and look out and care for ...
Be careful in regards to landlords. This site is riddled with them.
Because I made my point. You don't need assets to service a mortgage in the fractional reserve banking environment that we operate in.
I heard an interesting tid-bit on the radio this morning. Concerning bottom trawling for minerals in Taranaki, one of the uber ministers, Shane Jones, has recused himself from the decision making process. Edit.https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/...
Replace fluoride with MDMA in the water supply.
C'mon, be reasonable, gangsters have codes of honour.
I'm not pretending to have all the answers but food in schools done properly would be part of the solution. By properly I mean food cooked in-house or another school or high school. Not this neo liberal subcontracting food for profit carry on we have ...
After reading and watching Michael Lewis's The Big Short as well as others I can assure you Alwyn is wrong. Brokers were renowned for NINJA loans. No Income No Job but that didn't stop them being signed up for mortgages. You often hear parasites landlords ...
All the above is good and I'm down with it, with one proviso, the sugar isn't replaced by artificial sweeteners. Cough 'accumulative neuro toxin' cough.
Please excuse the following ageism. Since this story broke, I've had the notion that rather than get knocked down, it's more likely he had 'a fall'.
Well, they were anarchists in the '90s. Maybe, like some of us round here, they have gotten conservative with the passing of time.
I don't imagine any self respecting anarchist musicians would like having their art appropriated by 'the man'.
McAnulty. Speaks with a familiar vernacular. Not a career politician. Appears to be a little closer or relatable to the average worker. Feels like he is in 'my corner'. From the provinces.
" unearned income instead?" Financial Transaction Tax is good for that.
I know roads aren't fashionable at the moment. This is the latest update on Te Ahu a Turanga the Manawatu Gorge replacement road. It has a voiceover with the construction manager. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMHD4t7Hoaw Due for completion in a little ...
Must tautoko that ^^. Funny what you take for granted. Thanks for yr mahi, (I assume) lprent.
I wasn't aware of this documentary, forgive me if it has already been noted here. https://thedailyblog.co.nz/2024/03/12/the-liberal-agenda-the-assange-documentary-the-trust-fall-review-5-stars/ Going back to the Moment of Truth in 2014, I recall being a ...
I think his socially conservative views would have been a barrier to leadership. Which would have been a shame.
Yep, not surprising, more palangi uncomfortable with some bolshie, assertive wahine Maori. Edit; if Winston's getting snickerty then they are probably on the right track.
One key employment difference between elite sports folk and the rest of us is they are often told to 'express themselves'. Not being a wahine yaself I will leave their actions to them rather than heed your palangi concern.
Can't help but feel there is more to the paragraph than the once over lightly feel of it's presentation. "The previous Labour government sought to amalgamate TVNZ and RNZ into a BBC-style entity strong and diverse enough to withstand the rapid decline in ...
That's a great read, thanks Molly.
Yeah, the music section. This weekend gone I saw 3 bands in 3 cities. (CC activists look away). Due to not paying attention to dates I said yes to a gig in Aucks while committed to gigs in and around Wellies. Friday night Queens of the Stone Age at TSB. ...
As far as I can tell, Stuff and Herald are there to serve their paymasters, ie the real estate industry.
Had tea with my Mum tonight and had the misfortune to see a 6 pm news bulletin. Charging us more for registration and then having some wanker from the trucking industry saying that drivers can't wait for the potholes to be filled. From memory (TBF recall ...
Here is another angle of austerity Aotearoa style. 2 young workers, killed and Worksafe decides sitting on it's hands is the fiscally appropriate thing to do. There is power imbalance, cruelty and exploitation visited upon the families of two young men. ...
Clearly there is anger and disappointment at this regime's direction of travel and the carnage they are visiting upon us. It must be a better approach to look at all lobbying in parliament and the public serv8ce to solve this and, arguably, other more ...
That report and Luxon's response is a good argument for squatters rights to be recognised. Not only Premier House but any of his or other's properties, should they be uninhabited. Definitely an empty home tax. To make this palatable, it can initially be ...
"You've got it the wrong way round. They feed the masses what the masses say they want to see and hear..." You have just described a lot of what is wrong with our democracy and Labour last time round. Too much attention to constant polling and focus groups...
