IVV Only if you are a pisshead.
"may kids", what have goats born in May got to do with N/S?
Hey Dimbo Thats 'programme' Sorry, you are a failure at N/S English Back to Kindergarten.
In comparison to the Chimp running Labours election strategy, he is a Mastermind
I can tell the future. Ten or twenty years from now, if we vote NACT back in, there will be regretful articles in the newspapers asking why did we sell off our last few strategic assets. "What were they thinking?" - will be the wistful conclusion (making ...
I am enjoying re-reading The Hollow Men, by Nicky Hager, just to remind me about how Don Brash operates. Deja vu! Also, funny how the Hollow Men also makes a great read if, every time you read " Don Brash", you mentally insert the words "John Key". The ...
@ VTO: The difference is the gut-churning fear that the powerful feel whenever ordinary workers organise themselves. So "unions bad", "employers associations/roundtables/co-ops/combines good".
Oh dear Blue, really not a clue! Knee jerk view of what a modern union is that takes me back to the 1970s. I reckon that the groups of people who work for a living, who choose to join a union, could run rings around the self-interested so-called " creators...
TVOR ... at the moment, the public dont give a shit what policies Labour put up. Fact is, as shown in all polls of late, they just do not like the Senior Labour Caucus and the way they act. That is why they were beaten at the last election, that is why ...
Will undountedly be labbelled a Troll for this but... NZer’s are voting for a personality in John Key. One day, those in the Labour party will realise the reason why NZer’s are so turned off by Labour at the moment, is the personalities within Labour, the ...
Well said, Joe 90. While reading this strand, I began to write a similar response. NZ has seen political violence and murder directed at unions. The beating to death of Fred Evans, followed very shortly by the sight of Massey's well -armed "cossacks" on ...
"I cant beleive how easy it is to get headlines..... Makes you wonder what numbnuts Phil Goof does to avoid them"
gee does that not sound a lot like communisim. I have struggled having lost job, marriage, house and have over a number of years clawed myself out of "struggle street" through a mixture of retraining, damned hardwork and desire
Andthereby increase Government exenditure and create a need for even more taxation
You seem to forget that Phil Goof as recently as February this year said Labour would not inroduce a CGT
But what about the requirement for new housing stock ?..... And how do you think the erosion of a persons wealth is "all Good?
This poorly thought out policy will have another ramification. Suddenly, owning an investment property has become a whole lot less attractive to investors. Some have stated they will need to increase rents by 6-10% to cover. I would suggest that many small...
Spoken like someone wh has never been on a construction site!
Well done Scott. Hugely enjoyable interchanges.
I used to work in Mosgiel about 23 years ago, just after the Mosgiel sign went up. It caused some considerable snickering from those in Dunedin. At least the Mosgiel sign announces the town's correct name. It is also placed to be visible from Highway 1, ...
Hi LPrent, I am a fairly new reader (and very occasional comment-provider) of the Standard, and of blogs in general. Wonder if you could please define the terms "troll" and "astro-turfer". I see these terms come up from time to time. Other new readers may ...
Thanks for sharing, Andy-Roo; a moving and heartfelt description.
I hear the Trust is fine, they have a brand new chair and board doing a clean up.
"Everyone is saying 'Don't read them out." This is when his tiny Remuera shitebag brain should have told him THEN DON'T READ THEM OUT. But because Henry's an arrogant moron, he went right ahead and did it. Sack this infantile little microbe right now. What...
It is wrong to apologise for the mistakes of others, but in this case I feel I have to. I am sorry to all women out there on behalf on all evolved male human beings who reside in this country. Some of us aren't misogynistic cretins, and some of us regard ...
No National politician is a match for Helen Clark, Helem has had FAR more experience in dealing with people on a "down to earth basis" than anyone, not only that, how come NZs economy is better than it ever has been?. LABOUR FOREVER
Oh I almost forgot!, Thank you Helen for the good grace of reinstating the $20 pw National took off needy pensioners 1993. remember the upsurge in foodbanks?.
National Government played a HUGE part in this "violent Youth" problem we are facing today, it was National under shipley who legalised 18yr old to drink, therefore we have 12 & 13 yr old alcoholics now. I`m sick of these national blowhards spouting off ...
