Biographies on Mansfield have been translated into 51 ...
The server will be getting hardware changes this evening starting at 10pm NZDT.
The site will be off line for some hours.
Who is she desperately trying to convince? Shall we get some cheerleaders to follow her around, just to help boost morale?
had to google to find out who she is….standard appears about on par for a Nat MP
and this is why MPs shouldn’t be allowed on social media
A lot of MPs can have quite sensible debates and share information on twitter without any problems.
You would think that anything containing a rhyme and shit would be something you wouldn’t post on line
It wouldn’t be so bad if it scanned properly, but ffs, if you’re trying to be clever at least be clever.
This is why they should should be on social media, so we can see what they’re like…
Hmm yes good point, especially after a hard night at Bellamys (or wherever they go to drink)
The best quality about Joanne Hayes is that she would make an incompetent and nasty opposing incumbent MP seem like a somewhat reasonable choice, as well as an apparent expert in communications and appear mostly sober in public. Thanks, Joanne. And especially for 2011.
well this National List MP should not be on twitter.
I, for once, agree with you.
wow, says it all about the caliber of Nat MP’s
Is she trying to be ‘hip’ or something? They use her quite a lot to ask patsy questions of ministers at QT. About all she’s useful for…
Channelling Trump.
NP is the natural home of braying morons
she does raise some good points – the gnats are shit, it is heating up due to the effects of climate change and LGNZF are not shit. So maybe she has a good half measure of wit.
You are too kind. đ
I connected her twitter offering in my comment below with IT. And with your comment marty mars you have confirmed it – a half measure of wit is IT, out of twITter. I think we can do better in education wIThout IT.
+ 1
with wit she is it, without it she is a bit of a twit
martym. 27.5@10.29am
I thought along similar lines. If only she had left that crude word’ ‘hot’ out , she would have been absolutely on the nail!
“Her scansion is a scandal
Her wit not seen withal;
Her humour placed on twitter
Means her wittering is well called.”
Ahem!
Worthy of Shakespeare. đ
HA Mac!
I’ve been waiting all these years for an outbreak of succinct rhyme on ts!
Mind blown
Joanne who..?
I just wrote her a nice letter. Thanking her for her classy use of the english language. Hope she reads it lolz đ
diversionary stuff folks, from the party that has melissa lee, todd barclay, jamie lee etc I’m not surprised one bit.
Budget, tax havens, flag, housing, health and efucation focus opposition.
A rhyme for the time! Good marks for that Jo. That will in future years reach the top level of senior prowess from the IT educated narrow-focussed, efficiency-oriented, pared down education system.
Oddly enough, the swearing and puerile attitude didn’t bother me, but her use of a singular verb for a plural object is infuriating. I’d like to give her the John Cleese treatment in Life of Brian:
[Centurion twists Brian’s ear]
Centurion: How many Romans?
Brian: Aaaaagh ! Plural, plural, er, “ite” !
Centurion: [Writes “ite”]
To be fair, not as moronic as Sue Moroney’s twattish tweet.
What was Sue Moroney’s twattish tweet? Good marks for alliteration there.
Sue Moroney: “Just ‘is you live is a flash beach house doesn’t mean you get to decide our flag. #democracy #FixChildPovertyInstead”
Truly twattish tweeting.
Thanks Sam C
It is a fact that every now and then people who are aching to improve our welfare policies and conditions for all at the lower income level in NZ do get a bit silly and offensive. It is unfortunate that we cannot remain on the right intellectual level to discuss such matters in an appropriately objective way.
But acshually the situation is shit and similar expletives and that is why the use of sneer tactics at the superior sneerers of the Gnats seems the best approach to effect a dent in their thick hides. After all any sneers the left give NACTs are just pale imitations of what they are willing to dish out.
‘Your beach house is a beeatch house’ would be twattish.
Hayes’ tweet is quite puerile. Not a comment befitting of someone holding public office.
I would expect something like that to come by way of a dear and most esteemed leader’s attention seeking offspring!
Another whose actions suggest her IQ is lower than the number of letters in her job.
‘MP’ I mean, not “National Party List Member of Parliament” aa that has too many.
The intelligence is strong in this one, may the force be with them…..lol
Isn’t this the most publicity she has had in her entire Parliamentary “career”?
Another non descript Nat MP who is not over burdened with intelligence. However she is getting well paid by the long suffering taxpayers of NZ.
Lately I have been thinking that a lot of the comments on TS are the response of idle minds who add nothing to the political discussion, and the work for a better democracy, for political change working for people not against them, and for action to assist with the world-wide effects of uncontrolled fuel that is driving climate change.
This applies to the comments above re Sam and Sue Moroney. I did explain to Sam why Sue Moroney’s message and the background to it, is more important than nit-picking about what she has said and how!
In chimpanzee culture nit-picking is an important group activity where they look after each other and assist in getting rid of the blood-sucking insects hidden in their long hair. But that doesn’t apply to humans with advanced intelligence, who are capable of envisioning hellish futures for each other and carrying them forward with cold determination. So we need less distanced humans watching the Survival Game with interest, and all working to prevent it being held at all.
There is plenty of drama in our everyday lives to grapple with, such as that the Olympic Games are likely to result in athletes and visitors being affected by this newly revealed Z virus, which they will bring home with them to every part of the planet. Then that will be something really interesting for the non-affected to watch and comment on.
Is that likely? I think it all has a high probability of happening. So scrape the sticky candy floss from round your head, the carnival is over.
So are you saying it was ok for Moroney to randomly attack someone she didn’t even know because her message was an important one? Wow.
Typical Tory – nasty bitch.
To think she is holding a job that someone more competent could do, never forget the time she let rip in the House, it was psychotic to say the less. Also embarrassing.
