Do you genuinely believe that the EFB betrays the people who died in two world wars, as was stated at today's march? Those people fouoght against fascism & tyrany. They fought for the rights of free speech. They fought for the right to have a government ...
Afford to travel to auckland? Hardly costs much. If they can't afford it, TomS, its probably due to the increased petrol taxes. Is keeping people so poor that they can't afford to protest official labour party strategy? Gee.... need to get after increasing...
Interesting, TomS. On one hand, you're suggesting that the lack of locals means that people are apathetic. In the very same paragraph, your maligning the fact that out of town people came along. What kind of protest demographics do you find acceptable? ...
You know what? I'm sure that funding schools properly would have a bigger direct financial benefit to me than any tax cut whilst Cullen is at the helm. Currently, I'm having to pay probably $600-$700 a year in school fees, supplies fees etc etc for school ...
Spam - I recently looked at development ...
AFAIK, every blog DPF posts on, he does it under his own name / moniker.
And of course, its not like the Labour government gives taxpayer money to the unions, who then give donations in the form of campaigning to the Labour party? Nice little 'churn', isn't it?
I know for a fact those bogus votes didn't originate from a parliamentary server. Because you know who deliberately skewed it?
Milo - the terrorism protests targeted an issue, not a party. Well, "Helen Clark, Terrorist" is an 'issue', but because she is also the leader of a party, isn't it a grey area?
Then you should have no problem getting it published / presented at an astrology conference. Its really not their fault that you didn't know the difference between astrology & astronomy.
Unaha - the Herald shouldn't be playing politics. They should be reporting the news. So newspapers should never have any opinion pieces whatsoever? The sheeple must only be told the facts, with no analysis of how it might affect them? Gosh.... You guys ...
I was at an astronomy conference recently and they refused to invite my mate who thinks the moon's made out of blue cheese. I went to the same conference and they wouldn't table my astrology paper! Were either of those peer-reviewed, published papers? ...
What you're saying is that it is fine for a law to suppress Government activities. I'm saying it's not So why do most countries have a constitution? Of course laws should suppress government activities - the government if for the people, not the other way...
Well, I'm not surprised. You socialists only ever want to hear one side of an argument.
Of course, if that $70 Million was to be spent in completely non-partisan, policy informing ways, then DBP and Anderton would have zero problem in working with Madelline Setchell.
You called IP a liar, implying that the government didn't spend $70 million promoting policy. You asked for evidence, I gave you it. Now you are trying to spin & squirm. Fact: The government spends 10's of millions of dollars every year 'promoting ...
Brash's exact words were "I knew they were going to issue pamphlets attacking the government, and I said 'that's tremendous, I'm delighted by that because the government is lousy and should be changed.'" Any ordinary person would say that amounted to ...
Insolent Punter - you're lying again. Let's see some figures backing up your spending statement. Here's a hint: you don't have any. Mr Key said in the last election year - 2005 - government funded advertising had reached a record high of $69 million and ...
4. Intentional overspend. a) The Nats blew all their cash before the final couple of weeks of the campaign - just look how their ads dried up Nice story, except their ads didn't dry up. Labour were told well in advance of the election that the pledge card...
Nah Spam - I asked first. Sorry, but ...
Spam - that policy was published very ... favouring an incumbent govt yet, Spam. Were you just talking out...
Oh - and by the way: In my company, where we actually give a shit about not killing or hurting our staff, we got quite a acc / insurance cut when it was privatised. And teh evil corporate money grubbing capitalist took that cut and distributed it amongst ...
No spam - I mean the re-privatisation ...
Spam - are you Prick's girlfriend or ...
As for the question of state funding? I'm in favour of it. Currently all political parties are dependent on some form of corporate donation - that leave the door open for interference in the system such as the deal cut between National and the Insurance ...
Finally, robinsod actually tries to address some of IPs questions / arguments, rather than just saying something about "recycled lines" or telling him to "fuck off" or some such drivel about "adults talking". Oh wait - he still managed to say all those ...
Oh No! Those evil, evil EBs! They actually tried to point out how absurd the green's policies were (eg. comprehensive capital gain's tax etc). Must stop that kind of nonsense in the future!
