Morning,
Where hunty?
Got tired by the end of the week then?
Perhaps Hunty has moved to Auckland for the job!
and
Where hunty?
Vicky getting a bit stalky, then !!
Of late, he has usually been here before you get up for your midnight piss.
Nah he’s applied for the scribble face autocue readers job.
Here I is. hd to go shopping. Fark me I can’t get over the price of food here. It’s seriously fucked up, especially when you compare it to the prices in Thailand, even Aussie.
You can write to luxon….
I’m not sure he/they can read though
he/she/they is not very bright
seems to be the pre-req for a notional cabinet minister now !
The nz autopen is in full swing with that muppet
Tova O’Brien, Melissa Chan-Green and Lloyd Burr are three leading frontrunners to fill Jenny-May Clarkson’s position as host of TVNZ’s Breakfast, Media Insider understands.
Burr and O’Brien have the added advantage of extensive political reporting experience – a bonus as the country heads into election year.
Two more sources observed that the broadcaster had been advertising the role on Seek, citing one reason as past criticism that previous presenting vacancies were not advertised more broadly, notably when Kamahl Santamaria was hired in 2022.
It would be surprising – and probably troubling – if TVNZ did not have a plan for Breakfast with at least several candidates already in mind.
The Seek ad revealed a salary range of $250,000-$350,000 and that the role is for a fixed two-year term…

Perhaps Hunty has moved to Auckland for the job!
Chan Green will get it. I used to date her. She doesn’t shut the fuk up, only when my large, large man piece is in her gob does she go silent.
Out of those three Melissa would be the odd one out. She was on TV3 morning show and generally agreed with Ryans views.
I hope they give the job to Tova – that should tank their ratings even faster.
Overpaid by some distance.
Mr Hunty would be a far superior host to any of those tired leftie hacks
🙏👍
He might have trouble with the obligatory Te Reo and the requirement not to say ”clack bunt”.
Any female lefty hack would be well rewarded!
Gmail user? They are using ai to spy on ALL your emails.
https://x.com/eevblog/status/1991293066175492297?s=46
they have been mining your gmail since day 1 to target adverts.
Whoever did not know that you dont own your pictures in your android phone or your emails on your FREE gmail is a bit sloooow .
Funny that. I never get adverts from anyone when using gmail. Or anyone else when using my iPhone.
That’s because nobody likes..I mean that’s strange.🤔
I have always assumed that using Gmail was a given that Google and the spy agencies were having a nosey. Actually I just assume that anything online I do can be tied back to me one way or another. They do it for money (Google) or because they’re really fucking evil fuckers and think they are the good guys (spies).
Thanks for reminding me to go clear gmail, keep forgetting about that one. I thought gmail was just for setting up android phones then never using it.
thats all my gmail is for, setting up android… and trolling muppets like bradbury 🙂
The biggest thing I see in that is that Bunnings have dropped their NPC rugby sponsorship. For a sport that lost $19 million last year and a tightening business economy cannot see the existing monies(what ever it is) wanting to be picked up by too many companies. With the ever increasing demands on the female side but no great increase in spectators I feel rugby is fast heading towards a financial crisis that will shake the foundations of the game.
AI Overview
The 2011 Rugby World Cup (RWC) cost New Zealand taxpayers an estimated total of over NZ$500 million in direct public sector spending, which included covering the tournament’s operational loss and significant stadium upgrades.
——————————-
that is a lot to assuage some cunt’s ego .
mind you the feeble Americas cup crap in early 2021 cost combined $330 million between the taxpayer and the Auckland ratepayer.
this expenditure is outrageous to boost the ego of a few pieces of political slime.
Queensland Australia is facing a huge bill for 2032 Olympics after the lefty Pastachook (Annastacia Palaszczuk) locked them in
and has bailed out of politics 2 years ago .
messy stuff.
rugby just is not a thing any more.
60 years ago when shops were closed weekends and had one car families, rugby and racing were big on weekends .
we see and acknowledge the decline in Horse racing, a massive decline
[There should not be a Minister for (horse) racing – among 50 Ministries that should be shut down ]
but
there has been no such acknowledgment of the decline of rugby
now other options are many including do nothing.
taken over by martial arts, rowing, video games , mall rats, social media .
squash as a game has declined since 40 years ago
time for rugby to wake up
We dont owe the buggers a living (literally)
same with fucking yachting; pay for it yaself Grant Dalton
if after 40 years since Fremantle you cant pay your way
THEN
you are losers
don’t drag us down as well.
UK has lots of money for rugby and always had more than NZ .
Wakey wakey NZRFU .
Nz rugby is knackered, when you have to import Pacific islanders to build up numbers and they’re better than poor whiteboy.
How long before they object to dancing before games?
Sooner the better – Never watch it.
All they had to do was not be woke f-tards and keep the rules simple. They can’t do either of those things and the game will suffer because of it.
thugby players and clubs are socialist scum that want other peoples money to pay for their fun.
Rugby: men in shorts groping each other in public while insisting they are not gay.
After the regulation dancing!
especially with their ACC drawdown
car owners are targeted to pay their way in MV registration plus petrol tax;
but
never rugby players who fill up hospital waiting rooms on Saturdays in winter;
even touch rugby in summer on hard ground with twisted ankles and skin grazing.
and dont forget the booze and drug fuelled dumb shit after the game that lands them in emergency departments
Well I knew that would bring you out of the woodwork. As a kid did you ever actually play, in Southland don’t think there would have ever been too many “other” options.
Lots of us didn’t. We did tramping, climbing, running and shooting stuff.
Lots played soccer.
Sounds like Southland was backwards then and remains like that.
Another dinosaur into old age.
An elder Fairy.
That’s good!
Wait until you read the latest. coming here soon.

down the thread now.
Another interesting article:
When racial identity is currency, the modern census has become an ATM
By Steve Gaskell
For decades we’ve been told that the rapidly expanding Māori population is a triumph of cultural revival a demographic renaissance driven by pride, resilience, and whakapapa.
A neat story, certainly, but one that becomes a little less poetic the moment you look at how the numbers are actually assembled. Because the “doubling” of the Māori population since 1991 isn’t the result of a baby boom or sudden historic revelation. It’s the product of an increasingly flexible, politically convenient definition of ethnicity one that can expand or contract depending on who’s filling out the census and what benefits are attached to ticking the right box.
Stats NZ openly admits that ethnicity is not racial, biological, ancestral, or genetic. It is simply “the group or groups a person feels they belong to.” Perfect. The ultimate policy tool: identity by mood. And when government funding, public contracts, scholarships, and political leverage all start flowing along ethnic lines, it’s amazing how many people suddenly feel a cultural pull they never quite felt before. If identity is currency, the modern census has become an ATM.
This leads to the great political magic trick of our time: turning a self selected label into a measure of entitlement. Māori organisations frequently argue for increased funding with the line, “We represent X percent of the population.” Conveniently, that X has been climbing at a rate no genuine biological population could ever hope to match. Not because twice as many Māori were born, but because twice as many New Zealanders now choose to identify as Māori sometimes with only a sliver of ancestry, sometimes with none at all but a sense of cultural affinity, and sometimes purely because it opens doors that aren’t open to everyone else.
Government institutions have helped this along by designing policy around what they call “priority ethnic groups.” Health? Prioritised by ethnicity. Education initiatives? Ethnicity-based. Housing support? Ethnicity plays a role. Public contracts and agencies? A growing number are reserved for “by Māori, for Māori” providers. And since self-identification cannot legally be questioned, the incentive structure is obvious: the more people who tick the box, the more political leverage that group wields. Identity becomes influence, and influence becomes money.
Of course, pointing this out is heresy. You’ll be told you’re “minimising indigenous identity” or “denying lived experience.” In today’s New Zealand, feelings are no longer just personal they are statistical, political, and financial instruments. The entire system rewards expanding ethnic categories while punishing anyone who dares notice.
So yes, the Māori numbers are rising. But not because history has repeated itself or because nature has sped up. It’s because identity has become a strategic choice, a pathway to political power, and a ticket to targeted funding. The population isn’t growing the definition is. And in a country where feelings now shape public policy, that definition can grow forever.

So that is why the claim of increased maori productivity, and the calls about the vast surging maori economy.
So statistics appear as objective truth, so handily presented to appear as facts, evidence, to be quoted as meme, yet that in the past, others have seen the manipulation, for other purposes, and that has been challenged.

The current Māori Party, under the auspices of that Race Grifter, John Tamihere, is banking on this being true. According to the Te Puna Koriri report, 70% of under 40s will be Māori by 2038. Thus, Tamihere believes his political party will be a permanent part of government: demographics is destiny, and he obviously believes, like Willie Jackson, that all true Māori think alike (the No True Māori logical fallacy as I’ve penned it).
I touch on this in John Tamihere: From Waitakere Man to Race-Marxist Grifter – No Minister
That includes a link to that report.
70% of people under 40 by 2038 will be pakeha with 5 drops or less of maori blood.
ive said it before, we could end this bullshit rather quickly by defining maori with a decent threshold of maori dna/ancestory. all the clinger ons who are ⅖s of fuck all maori who are only in it for free stuff will turn on actual maori and want the rort ended once they realise theyre paying for the gravy train.
its fucked up, a normal kiwi person could be 70% euro, 5%african, 20% jew, 5%other and just be normal/euro…. but replace that 5%other with 5% or less of maori and all of a sudden theyre a full blown maori and the other ethnic makeup is disregarded.
take willie jackson for example, hes more ashkenazi jew than he is maori, hes more chinese/taiwanese than jew… yet hes latched on to the maori identity which is the weakest of his heritage just cuz free stuff and can use it to his benefit.
You may be surprised to learn that ethnicity or race in NZ is based on feelings under our law.
If you want to be Māori, you can be (though suddenly, if you want the taxpayer $$$, you need to show the right ancestry). You can be whatever ethnicity you want, whenever you want.
When I get surveys from local government, and they’re skewing them to get the right results, I’ll put myself down as Māori, because I know my “voice” then becomes more important…especially if I want to oppose what the council wants to implement. Am I lying? Perhaps at the very moment of filling in ethnicity I felt Maori. And of course, since it is feeling based, it doesn’t matter.
It helps Willy that he’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer but cunning as a shit house rat.
Many years ago on Radio Live during the JT and Willy show Willy announced “white people don’t have a culture” 🤡💩

Don’t the abo’s call that dreamtime?
Someone posted elsewhere today: ‘we don’t have a race problem, we have a problem race’.
YESSSSSS!!!!
You just can’t say that, Bob
Yes he can and so can they.
Andrew Little demands poolice accountability and prosecute someone, anyone?
He’s a special person. I have to say special now as the Mrs is getting upset at myself saying retard all the time.
yep yep
its interesting
30 years ago calling someone a retard or moron was water off a ducks back
called them cunt of wanker and it was upsetting to the poor victim
but that has reversed
traditional swearing (George Carlins 7 bad words ) has lost its power.
To insult now is to call people retards
it has an effect
a good effect
and is often true !!
but I don’t advise calling Mrs Marshall a cunt
or , if you do
get a food taster .
Also note the evolution of ”the N word” which has replaced ”the F word” as something you can’t say in polite society.
Faggot?
The seven dirty words are seven English-language profanities
that the American comedian George Carlin
first listed in his 1972
“Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television” monologue
The words, in the order Carlin listed them, are: “shit”, “piss”, “fuck”, “cunt”, “cocksucker”, “motherfucker”, and “tits”.
Fuck – remember when that was the ultimate dirty word?
Every language in the world understood it!
NIGGER
HEY ED !!!!! Mikey said the “N” word
All depends on the context.
Little and the Greens are the ones who should be prosecuted. Quite frankly I’m sick of hearing these women bleat about the Pike River tragedy which I believe was caused by lax safety issues. Andrew Little throwing millions down a hole hasn’t changed anything. The real issue is the mine should have been open cast but the lunatic Greens put a stop to that. Any prosecution that goes ahead now will be hugely expensive and will most likely fail.
And should include the Greens and the dopey bastards that forced to company into that situation.
15 years on those woman have serious mental health issues
the biggest cause of emerging mental health issues is those who cant let go of the past.
you cant change what happened five minutes ago .
you sure cant change what happened 15 years ago.
those blokes got in the work van to go up to the mine and knew the sensors had plastic bags over them.
or the mine would be shut down.
they did not want to shut down
they were way behind schedule in even opening the mine.
yes, should have been open cast to let the methane go free range.
this was high quality steel making coal and as such was volatile .
THEY ALL knew it
it was a combined act of negligence; and the responsibility needs to be shared including by the miners , mine owners, so called safety inspectors and the board of Directors.
these women got millions of dollars per dead man; and are still whinging .
fuck right off.
The parents of the only child Chinese kids killed in the CTV building 10 weeks later only got $40,000 per child plus funeral costs.
not even the money to repatriate the body to China.
and they were paying for the education
not paid like the mine workers.
ACC forbade the Chinese parents from suing for actual compensation at realistic value of losing their only child who they sent to another country, in good filth, to learn English.
No-one to look after them in old age. No millions payout like the West coast women .
[no women in the mines you wominz libbers; but the women still got million$ ]
and the kids in the CTV building were not covering up life saving sensors with plastic bags .
take some responsibility .
Stop fucking moaning you multi-millionaire pretenders
you have mental health issues , self inflicted
HTFU.
To take the Pike River Mine to court now, they are dreaming!!!!!!
To get a conviction, would require a wet dream and everyone to wear frilly knickers
Instead try the greens for not letting a open mine.Every bloody member!
DOC for rounding up all the snails for a holiday.
DOC worker for not monitoring the fridge temp.
The miners union for not checking worksite.
Worksafe for not doing the same thing.
no suprise stuffed make no mention of the south african murdering her 3 daughters in timaru and then attempting suicide. just a man hating piece and it would ruin their story narrative that its always about relationship separation that leads to tragic events like this.

Indeed it was basically copied from the herald, leaving out bits.
An interesting study that had been done.
But the eyes are the window to the sou,l and looking at the picture of the oldest boy says that he wasn’t a happy chap.
It was also the first time that I noticed the father was called a business man.
Xactly what I thought on seeing the headline .
biased BS
Didn’t the mother get repatriated to South Africa, bloody quick?
Remind me who was the justice minister in the hot seat at the time?
There’s really not much difference between her and the Foxton kids.
Oh that’s right, the Foxton kids, it was the father!!!
Sanson is 30 km from Foxton.
Still here
Dickason will be eligible to be considered for parole in September 2027.
so, less than 2 years to go
Then the bleeding hearts will appeal that she cant go back to south africa coz its not safe and all that…
So she will be walking our streets by the end of this decade, in all probability .

Hi Thanks for fixing that. Cheers
Great article thanks Rol & S1. I especially like this comment-
“Just like Zelensky, Democrats now also face a polycrisis. Which crisis should they focus on? Epstein? Venezuela? Ukraine? SNAP? ICE deportations? National Guard in blue cities? Tariffs? Russiagate? Obamacare? Affordability? Nick Fuentes? Ali Baba and the Arabian Nights? How to steal all the Whovillians’ presents before sunrise?”
Leftie heads must be exploding all over the US.
Everything but thumb screws tried on Zeelinski to sign but I’m guessing Trump has issued a pair to his close negotiator if the rat won’t accept he’s trapped.
Isn’t it great to see real journalism in action for a change. Good to see Zelensky stuck in a corner, The TDS mob will be most distressed.
Anyone still got a Ukraine flag flying. //
Walked into my GP practice early in the SMO to find blue and yellow bunting everywhere so I asked the receptionist if one of the staff was from Ukraine. She said no, but they were raising funds to send medical supplies over there.
Unfortunately the Perspex that protected her from my WuFlu germs also meant I had to raise my voice so she and everyone else could hear my objection to consult and script fees being raised to cover costs of supporting the most corrupt government in Europe.
The practice can support whoever they want on their own dime – as can I, but to force me to contribute was unacceptable.
Don’t start me on St John’s and that fool with the ambulances.
Think they all got traded in for Palestinian flags, and now that that’s no longer flavour of the month, they don’t know what to do with themselves.
They will find another useless waste of time cause, seems like they have nothing better to do, like that thing called their job. If anyone in private industry tried what they do would be down the road so fast there would be smoke coming off their shoes
Haven’t seen one for months. Even less common than masks.

A good article by Bryce Edwards.
So a very profitable mirror set up by John Tamihere with Te Partly’s & reveals the actual sly basis of their tribal “foundations”
…. The party rails against the elites, but behaves like an elite.
It might denounce pakeha elites but depends on their same logic.
It claims to empower the marginalised, but centralises power within a narrow circle. ….
https://www.democracyproject.org.nz/p/democracy-briefing-why-te-pati-maori?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email
Shows how it utitlizes all of the predatory, elitism, nepotism, oligopoly, cronyism into selfcentred tribalism.
Only question I have, seeing the large reserves of monies, is that, are government taxpayers money still flowing through the smoke & mirror systems?
Like how the current tri-coalition government are still $ topping up in various ways Radio New Zealand, TelevisionOne etc., and giving quiet support to such BSA Broadcasting Standards Authority.
John Tamihere had better not look in the mirror, because he is on of them just wrong shade of colour. He must be a high maintenance bitch who spends a fortune on beauty products!

Leavitt SPARS with reporter after Trump calls Dems ‘traitors’
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addresses President Donald Trump’s criticism of Democrats who urged U.S. servicemembers to defy ‘illegal orders’ from the administration
I believe that’s the same msm ABC “fake news” reporter who embarrassed the King of Saudi Arabia in Trump’s office yesterday.
In NZ civil liberties are dispensed with by control freaks under the guise of “safety”. In the USA the need for “security” is used to camouflage moves by authorities designed to subvert the freedom of citizens.
It should come as no surprise that the U.S. Border Patrol is monitoring millions of American drivers nationwide in a secretive program to identify and detain people whose travel patterns it deems suspicious. Even if their suspicions are bogus & their checks are intrusive.
The surveillance is bolstered by algorithms:
#. “A network of cameras scans and records vehicle license plate information, and an algorithm flags vehicles deemed suspicious based on where they came from, where they were going and which route they took. Federal agents in turn may then flag local law enforcement.”
Its introduction proved to be the thin end of the wedge:
#. “Started about a decade ago to fight illegal border-related activities and the trafficking of both drugs and people, it has expanded over the past five years.”
https://www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/360894568/border-patrol-monitoring-us-drivers-and-detaining-those-w
This in America where citizens have the protection of a Constitution set in concrete & a few media outlets not yet subverted by the state. When the push comes in NZ, as it inevitably will, it will be welcomed by legions of “safety” obsessed mumsies!
Get boosted bishop wants to bypass cameras and all the calculation

…Started about a decade ago to fight illegal border-related activities and the trafficking of both drugs and people…
The CIA hates competition !!
The US constitution offers protection in theory while American cops routinely get away with murder.
Literally!
I guess when you’re Goldsmith most people seem intelligent:
#. “Christopher Luxon is “a very intelligent guy” and the only talk about turfing him from the top job is coming from the “chatterati”, columnists and those with short attention spans who “always want some excitement”, a senior Cabinet minister says.”
Luxon isn’t under threat. Not because he’s useful or effective but because not one of the drongos in the National caucus is any better.
Step up Saint Simeon. At least he makes decisions and not a lot of people seem to argue with him.
Granted that Brown is the stand out exception. Luxon & his merry band of congenital fuckwits realised that & handed him the poisoned chalice of the Health Ministry.
It buried the incredibly able Tony Ryall & it will do the same for Simeon Brown.
Simeon was very youthful looking before his appointment to the politically torrid health portfolio. He now has a receding hairline which hopefully gives him a look of maturity and gravitas 🥸 😃
receding hairline
like the last decent Health Minister, Tony Ryall , had
Ryall could only be as good a minister as handbrake keys allowed
S Brown can only be as good a minister as handbrake luxxy allows.
and Simon Power.
does anyone know what really happened there ?

New Zealand Taxpayers’ Union
Media report reveals that Nicola Willis harpooned her own pre-election commitments to cut spending
The Taxpayers’ Union is calling on Nicola Willis to publicly explain why she has continued Labour’s trajectory of increased government spending despite the $3 billion of proposed savings from her Associate Minister of Finance, David Seymour, as revealed by Stuff today.
Nicola Willis tasked David Seymour to find savings, to get what Willis called Grant Robertson’s ‘addiction to spending’ under control. According to Stuff, Seymour delivered the goods: some $3 billion of savings and efficiencies.
Responding to the report, Taxpayers’ Union Executive Director Jordan Williams, said:
“Instead of following through on National’s promises to get spending under control, Nicola Willis broke her word. Less than four per cent of the identified savings were actioned, and even those were simply reallocated to increased spending elsewhere.”
“Overall, Nicola Willis is spending more now than when Grant Robertson left office. Now, some six months after the Budget, we learn that David Seymour gave her the answers, but she threw them in the dustbin.”
“The biggest economic anchor right now isn’t Donald Trump or trade barriers, it’s Nicola Willis and the burden of super-sized government spending.”
“The Treasury is sounding the alarm about current policy settings being unsustainable. Seymour should be congratulated for being a Minister coming up with answers.”
“The public’s sinking opinion of the Government reflects growing disillusionment with its financial and economic management. The only short-term options open to the Government are to significantly reduce Government expenditure in Budget 2026 and lend some credibility to its forecasts of a surplus and ability to turn the ship of state around.”
“If Willis couldn’t stomach Seymour’s fiscal lunch, her job was to find alternative savings. Instead, she’s fudged her promise to taxpayers to get spending under control.”
Well, we kinda knew that, and if history is anything to go by, there are 2 things.
Roger Douglas slashed many items and made many changes, few if any have been changed since, and their next election results went up.
Ruth Richardson (Willis’s mentor), dumbed stuff down, attacked to poor and got booted out for her nasty housekeeping. The Nats never recovered.
So the choice really is rather obvious.
Willyless is just thick
a dumb bitch
should not be there
has no quals to be there, has no experience to bring to the table.
she is a Karori housewife; nothing more.
Stroppy and self righteous but with no substance to back her stance.
So attacks people when asked a hard question.
Most questions are hard for her.
I had an aunty like that. She was a Karori housewife with no real-world clue.
She was also a bitch. only one of two bitch Aunties. the rest were fine.
Even my nana agreed about her nasty daughter in law.
this shows the dire straits and road to zero that the gnats are on .
Vatican influence as well.
Nanny Willis won’t take her big bag of sweeties away. 🍭 🍬🍬
Something for the crypto enthusiasts:
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2025-11-20/bitcoins-achilles-heel
they really need to stop calling bitcoin cryptocurrency.
its too volatile/unstable to ever be a currency, cryptos have essentially just become a digital global sharemarket backed by absolutely nothing. no business, buildings, assets or production just people buying a transaction on a blockchain in the hopes someone will buy it off them at a higher price in the near future.
Bitcoin is like a work of art. It has no intrinsic value but is worth what the market will bear. If people are willing to pay $100,000 for one BTC, then that’s what it’s worth.
At least you get to look at your art O’sen. I concede that there maybe some Bitcoin enthusiasts who get a hard on staring at their bitcoin wallet on their phone, but doesn’t seem quite the same to me.
Disclaimer: I own no cryptocurrency.

his nasty wife is back on Auckland council.
after some very fkg dubious vote fiddling in 2022
must have contacted the DNC- Arizona – for a how to .
Meanwhile, the arsewipe is stirring up the firefighters.
The great Hunster is in Nelson now. What a lovely place. Up on the hill overlooking the peasants, general scum, niggers and feral.
Hunty-san, what are you doing in Nelson? Visiting relatives?
I confess that I do like the Nelson / Motueka region. hat a great place to have a garden and grow stuff.
“grow stuff”…. yup, plenty of hippies in the nelson/tasman region figured that one out
What one of the hills Hunty?
…..”Up on the hill overlooking the peasants, general scum, niggers and feral.”……
And your tenants. 🙂
Great, ain’t it.
Can see all the brilliant truckers stuck to their seats as well.
Oh, and a few subsidised farmers in the queue, those ne that the taxpayer pays the interest for.
Great to watch as they scurry along, thinking of more ways to rip off the taxpayer.
sounds like someones pissy that farmers arent spending any of their high dairy/meat income on curtains!
i think you need to go join bombers blog, your miserable attitude and farmer hating will fit right in just dont mention youre a greedy landlord
Not at all. Merely pointing out that a particular person, ex both those occupations that is anti anti-rental house owners, managed to clip the subsidies from the taxpayer when he could.
Made a quid doing so.
Pointing out the enjoyment Hunty could have up on the hill watching that kind.
Too complicated for you, perhaps?
You’re very defensive today V2. Just recovering from the flak after upping the rents again I presume? 🙂
Haven’t changed my rents for 18 months. Happy tenants.
Really need about another $100.00 a week.
Apparently 27% of our current MP’s are maori. As such they are over-represented and this is racist. To whom do I complain? We need some cracker seats.
The National Party mostly.
Many also represent the Vatican in their quiet time.
represent the Vatican in their quiet time.
nah
represent the Vatican in all their time.
remembering Joe Biden is a catholic.
and a nutty liar.
Quote of the day.
“The rich stay rich by looking poor; the poor stay poor by looking rich.”
yep, amazes me how many “poor” people have a new car or new big screens and the latest phone and still rent a house.
Have no savings, drink a lot of booze, drink trolley loads of fizzy drinks, load up on chippies and shit. See it all the time in the supermarkets.
Always have new clothes, shoes, etc.
Go to expensive concerts,
Work 30 hours a week, miles from their home and then complain they are not paid enough.
Gone are the days when people worked 4 or 5 jobs and saved every dollar they could.
its called luxury poverty, driven by lack of patience and the need for instant gratification.
most have zero ability to save and live paycheque to paycheque but its all boomers and the govts fault.
stupid boy dosent pretend to be rich cuz hes not but i dont blow my money on bullshit and i know how to prioritise my money and how to save.
freeing yourself of consumer debt is one of the best things you can do financially imo. subscription services are next on the list to slash as theyre a fucking money pit aswell, 20bux here 50bux there it all adds up by the end of the month.
we paid off our last financed thing via lump sum (wifeys old car) about a month before lockdown started and havent ticked a fucking thing since and only the mortage remains.
its good cuz if you want something youve gotta save for it, 9 times outve 10 by time youve saved enough youve worked out you dont really need it… but now every 2nd gen z or millenial muppet uses afterpay to impulse buy shit under 100bux cuz they cant even save that. overseas theres tons of dumb fucks that afterpay burritos and other fast food ffs.
dave ramsey is highly recomended listening for anyone wanting to slash debt, save or just get a business humming. his debt snowball method should be mandatory listening for anyone with consumer debt.
Dude, have you seen financial audit with Caleb Hammer on youtube, he gets dumb arses that tick up more than they can afford on credit cards, its nuts what the yanks are up to.
But your right they have to have the latest and greatest things $2k phones when sub $500 phones will do the job, cars on tick, hell I know benefit mums that upgrade cars every few years and us dumb fuck tax payers are footing the bill for it.
Fuck the streaming services, its pirate time.
Well done for paying off your shit, well other than the mortgage, I dont know if it will help ya or not but look into a split mortgage, Ive payed of a huge chunk of mine by having one, and a few of my mates now have split as well and are doing better because of it, im sure one of the old hands on here will know more than me
Coming up, mortgage rates of 2.5%
Borrow all you can for 5 years and buy property.
Learn how to buy well.
Follow Dolf de Rue.
Thanks, ill keep that in mind
yea ive watched a few of calebs videos and i was gobsmacked at some of the absolute stupidity and to top it off how nonchalant they are about it… some even forget 50 or 100k debts they have cuz they have so much other dumb debts.
Its just nuts how they do that
As my mates used to say T for tick bro, its all good get it now pay later. Thats got worse with the ease of tick and payment plans these days.
For me its, If you aint got the cash dont get it, if it aint broke it dont need replacement.
The wants for things are still there, but just need to justify them
you sound much the same as me when it comes to spending money.
i swear half my mates could win lotto and still end up in debt within a few years. im always blown away at what some of them blow their money on and where their priorities lie along with dumb as fuck impulse decisions.
Haha yeah, we might be smarter than most of those our age haha.
Haha mine are the same.
Have met people that one $1 or 2 mil on lotto, broke with in 2 years.
Met a couple that won twice, blew a lot of it, brought a buisness and now work for themselves but earn just enough to get by, yet the interest off the mil in the bank gets paid to the kids, who inturn blow it on crack and live on benefits coz too lazy to work
Friday afternoon announcement!!
Ah, gotcha
no, an update really 🙂
So the fund for the Sanson kids is over $372 k at this time, and growing.
Pink Suzie’s fund is at $181 k of the target of $400k to pay for her legal follies .
nine days left folks if you want to help out Doctor Suzie/ Siouxsie/Swoozie/floozy/ whatever
https://www.pledgeme.co.nz/projects/8521-support-dr-siouxsie-after-she-supported-us
go on; be a sport, old sport !
More chance of me donating to Zelensky….
I would rather withdraw cash and bonfire it in the back yard than donate to siouxsie.
Oh hell no, fucking grifter that pink haired whale is, get a lone and pay for your own stupid mistakes like the reat of us have to. Too many bleeding hearts out there will give to her tho.
to be fair someone shouldnt be pretty much bankrupted by “winning” a legal case tho.
but on the whole she was in the wrong to start with and never shouldve taken a case against them… she should never have fucking won either as she bought it all upon herself.
I get that but if you take someone to court, you have to expect it to cost. Make court costs part of your settlement if you know you are right.
The dumb bitch should have just walked away, she knew she was wrong but doesnt want to admit it, no accountability, must be a modern woman.
wank wank
the corner of my Windows 11 computer is saying
Record high temperature
no number shown
the madness is everywhere .
Its just the pc asking you if you want to record its internal temps, might have a cooler failing.
Or its gone nuts and thinks the world is boiling when we have had hotter days
Maybe!

Trump’s full 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine is out, and, much like Gaza, it’s not a peace plan. It’s a forced capitulation written with input from Russia.
A few hard facts:
• The plan was drafted by Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff, with Marco Rubio and Jared Kushner.
• They coordinated directly with Kirill Dmitriev, Russia’s sanctioned envoy.
• Zelensky wasn’t a choice: the U.S. delivered the plan to him on an “aggressive timeline,” and he’s been told he must engage.
Trump’s Full 28-Point Ukraine–Russia Plan (Verbatim Structure)
1. Ukraine’s sovereignty will be confirmed.
2. A comprehensive non-aggression agreement will be concluded between Russia, Ukraine, and Europe; all ambiguities of the last 30 years will be considered settled.
3. Russia will not invade neighboring countries, and NATO will not expand further.
4. A U.S.-mediated Russia–NATO dialogue will be launched to resolve security issues and promote cooperation.
5. Ukraine will receive “reliable security guarantees.”
Note: For the first time, the U.S. explicitly offers Ukraine a formal security guarantee, details unspecified.
6. Ukraine’s military will be capped at 600,000 personnel. (Current size: ~800–850k.)
7. Ukraine must enshrine permanent neutrality: it will never join NATO, and NATO will codify that.
8. NATO agrees not to station troops on Ukrainian territory.
9. European fighter jets will be stationed in Poland.
10. The U.S. security guarantee comes with conditions:
– The U.S. receives compensation
– If Ukraine invades Russia, the guarantee is void
– If Russia invades Ukraine, sanctions snap back and recognition of territory is withdrawn
– If Ukraine fires a missile at Moscow or St. Petersburg “without cause,” the guarantee is void
11. Ukraine becomes eligible for EU membership and receives temporary preferential access to EU markets.
12. A global reconstruction package is launched, including:
– A Ukraine Development Fund
– Joint U.S.–Ukraine energy projects
– Modernization of Ukrainian infrastructure
– Investment in mining and natural resources
– A World Bank financing package
13. Russia will be reintegrated into the global economy:
– Gradual lifting of sanctions
– Long-term U.S.–Russia economic cooperation
– Joint ventures in AI, energy, infrastructure, rare earths, and Arctic extraction
– Russia rejoins the G8
14. Frozen Russian assets will be allocated as follows:
– $100B used to rebuild Ukraine (run by the U.S.)
– The U.S. receives 50% of profits from reconstruction investments
– Europe contributes another $100B
– Remaining frozen assets go into a U.S.–Russia joint investment vehicle to deepen economic ties
15. A joint U.S.–Russia security working group will monitor compliance.
16. Russia will codify in law a policy of non-aggression toward Europe and Ukraine.
17. The U.S. and Russia will extend nuclear arms-control treaties, including New START.
18. Ukraine reaffirms its non-nuclear status under the NPT.
19. The Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant will be operated under IAEA supervision, and electricity will be split 50/50 between Russia and Ukraine.
20. Education and social programs promoting multicultural tolerance will be mandated in both countries:
– Ukraine adopts EU standards for minority rights
– Both sides end discriminatory laws
– Equal media rights for Ukrainian and Russian outlets
– All Nazi ideology must be banned
Note: Very similar to provisions in Trump’s 2020 Israel–Palestine “Peace to Prosperity” plan.
21. Territorial arrangements:
– Crimea, Donetsk, and Lugansk are recognized as de facto Russian, including by the U.S.
– Parts of Kherson and Zaporozhye become frozen “contact line” zones (also de facto recognition)
– Russia gives up other agreed areas
– Ukraine withdraws from remaining parts of Donetsk; the zone becomes a Russian-recognized neutral buffer
– Russian forces cannot enter the buffer zone
22. Both sides agree not to alter future borders by force; security guarantees void if Ukraine violates this.
23. Russia guarantees Ukraine access to the Dnieper River and free Black Sea grain shipping.
24. A humanitarian committee is created to:
– Exchange all prisoners and bodies (“all for all”)
– Return detained civilians and children
– Implement family reunification
– Provide aid to victims of the conflict
25. Ukraine must hold national elections within 100 days of the agreement.
26. Full amnesty for all parties for all actions taken during the war: no prosecutions, no war-crimes claims.
27. The agreement will be legally binding and enforced by a Peace Council chaired by Donald J. Trump.
Note: This is the same governing structure Trump’s Gaza peace plan uses, a Trump-chaired oversight body empowered to impose sanctions.
28. A ceasefire begins as soon as both sides pull back to agreed positions.
NO! You’re not cancelling Christmas.

I’ve always regarded prayer as talking to something that isn’t there & bloody hard on the knees to boot. Yet now & again something happens to make me consider the relationship between miracles & chance.
From https://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/fire-breaks-out-at-cop30-pavilion-in-belem-no-injuries-reported/PZZ3K2SADBBQJFAVRAXEX4PR3I/
#. “A fire broke out inside the UN climate summit venue in Brazil, burning through the roof and causing a panicked evacuation and the suspension of talks entering a crucial phase.”
#. ““Some of us were still negotiating inside the room but due to the fire I think the process will stop for a while,”
When it comes to bullshit it seems that Huey doesn’t appreciate competition.
😇 God has a sense of humour.
Sick of watching haka and all that stuff. Here’s real class.
