Didn’t see your name on the gun list.
Carl Sagan said this There’s two kinds of dangers. One is what I just talked about. That we’ve arranged a society based on science and technology in which nobody understands anything about science and technology, and this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. I mean, who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don’t know anything about it? And the second reason that I’m worried about this is that science is more than a body of knowledge. It’s a way of thinking. A way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we’re up for grabs for the next charlatan political or religious who comes ambling along.

Don’t understand what the problem is – hasn’t she got her all her whanau working on 3-waters?
Yes she has Saggy, but there is still not enough in it for either her or them.
Not all, that will come later and then the other tribes will get pissy about it. Maori are not a homogenous grouping.
Is that why one tribe has been given the south island water?
Ports of auckland can’t runthioer p[ort p[roperly but the Greenies that are board members can waste their time on this.
Sparky the electric tugboat has arrived at the Ports of Auckland! The e-tug is expected to save 465 tonnes of CO2 diesel emissions.
Ports of Auckland partnered with Damen Shipyards to make Sparky happen as part of its goal to be zero-emission by 2040.
👉 For more stories: https://www.1news.co.nz/

So, Sparky can pull as much as Hauraki? But what’s the bet that Hauraki can pull all day without having to refuel? Can Sparky do the same?
And how ironic, the Port will send Sparky out to bring in a bulk freighter bringing in low grade coal from Indonesia to power the Huntly Power Station so that enough electricity can be generated to recharge Sparky.
No surprise that the video has Sparky going around in circles. I’m guessing Chloe Swarbrick must have been at the helm because that’s all her Party’s green agenda achieves.

As an aside to this. POT has had a huge coal facility sitting there unused for quite a few years. It was built for coal but because of the demands on the rail network for container transport it is now unused and the coal which used to be carried on rail in bulk is now trucked from POA to Huntly.
And of course with something like 5 or 6 data centres currently with being built or on the drawing boards we will be up the creek with a real shortage of electricity. Its coming as soon as we get some cold weather.Then we won’t have the gas we need and so it goes..
All in the name of non existent global warming.
Bahhhh
I bet domestic won’t be prioritised over commercial electricity usage either.
Wait till they bolt a diesel generator on the back, to extend the range!

Morning Troopers,
Once again, police have failed to protect details of firearms owners, which have fallen into the wrong hands. This will happen again if the firearms register goes ahead. It will put firearms owners and their families in danger, providing shopping lists for gangs.
“Exclusive: Firearm owners’ details stolen in alleged burglary of old Auckland police station
Personal details of firearms owners, including their names and addresses, were among documents allegedly stolen from the disused Auckland City police station, the Herald can reveal.
The documents could serve as a shopping list for criminals seeking to steal lawfully obtained guns.
A major criminal investigation continues to find out who may have come into contact with the private firearms documents.
Affected firearms owners are now being contacted by police and told their details were on the pilfered papers.
There has been no word on exactly how many firearms owners’ details are caught up in the breach.
Officers became aware of the break-in while executing a search warrant in Mt Albert in May where they found police property, including documents and expired pepper spray.
Auckland City Police district commander Superintendent Karyn Malthus said four people have been charged to date with burglary and offences related to receiving stolen property.
“Among the stolen property recovered were a number of documents which included firearms licensing information, containing people’s personal details,” she said.
“Our investigation is continuing to work to understand the full breadth of documentation that was stolen.
“Police are now contacting people whose documents have been obtained as a result of the burglary to advise them of the situation.
“There is nothing to indicate any involvement of organised criminal groups in this burglary at this stage.”
As part of the process following the major breach, police say they are working with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
Malthus said there was no evidence at this stage indicating the involvement of organised criminal groups in the alleged burglary.
“The ongoing criminal investigation is continuing to establish who may have come into contact with the stolen property.
“Police would like to reassure the public that this matter is being taken extremely seriously and the protection of all peoples information of the utmost importance which is why there is a significant ongoing investigation underway.”
The Herald asked police whether firearms owners should consider taking additional steps to secure their weapons in view of the breach.
Malthus said: “In general, we always advise firearms license holders to remain vigilant around the security measures they have in place for their firearms.”
Firearms owners were asked to contact police if they had any concerns.
The old Vincent St station was formerly the headquarters of Auckland City police before it was ditched for a new premises at College Hill several years ago.
Acting Privacy Commissioner Liz MacPherson said in a statement police would need to conduct an investigation to ascertain the size of the privacy breach.
“Any organisation holding personal information must protect the privacy and mana of the people who entrusted it to them.”
MacPherson said while the Privacy Commissioner had not yet received complaints arising from the breach, anyone with concerns about their privacy could contact her office for advice and support.
The breach comes amid an ongoing gang war in Auckland where more than 20 houses have been shot up, some with high-powered rifles.
In this year’s budget, police were allocated more than $200 million for the establishment of a new firearms unit.
Police are in the process of establishing a firearms registry, one of the recommendations of a review following the Christchurch mosque terror shootings.”
Well the new Gun Register should go real well then. just wait until the Chinese or Russian hackers get into it.

What did the poolice just walkout and shut the door leaving shitloads of gear in it!
You’re assuming they shut the door, Sooty.
Yes, I admit I am and locked it!
Closed all the windows.
Set the burgler alarm as well!
Is the register supported by National?
No, Luxon said as much. Be interesting to see if he follows through.
Is a register supported by gangs?
The answer to all the bureaucratic incompetence will of course be to remove said guns from their owners.
On that epstien scandal. Musk at them.

Controversial social media surveillance commissioned by the Government analysed New Zealanders’ private messages to Government sites without their knowledge, and contrary to the officials’ descriptions of the work.
Private company Annalect (now Resolution, controlled by US and Australia-based companies) provided the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet with some 231 “social listening” reports over a period of two years, at a cost of more than a quarter of a million dollars.
In March, Cheryl Barnes, deputy chief executive of the department, told the Herald the data analysed in the reports was already available in the public arena, and collected from sites like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Here’s a message to Ardern “Get Fucked you Bloody Bitch”

I left my message for Cindy and her Government in the porcelain bowl early this morning.
I hope they both heard and read it.

You should have posted
it to the creature.
Ever wondered what’s going on behind the scenes? In this column, senior business journalist Tom Pullar-Strecker picks apart some of the background decision-making that might normally go unreported but can have a big impact on the economy overall.
ANALYSIS: Is it a tax? Is it a tariff?
No, it’s a “carbon border adjustment mechanism”, or CBAM for short, and its first superpower may be to push up the price of imported cement.
But if and when it arrives on the scene, expect National to promptly label it a “concrete tax”, regardless.
To understand what on Earth I’m going on about, it is necessary to have a basic handle on emissions trading schemes.
https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/opinion-analysis/128683666/cement-tax-in-the-mix-if-eu-war-on-carbon-leakage-spills-over-to-nz
These are designed to curb carbon emissions by requiring businesses buy a carbon credit for each tonne of carbon emissions they release into the atmosphere.
But what if a business buying carbon credits is competing against a rival in a country that is dragging its heels on climate change and isn’t forced to buy credits?
This whole carbon tax thing is an Al Gore rort. Follow the money.
I read that early this morning Viking. If the whole ETS, Carbon Credits and this CBAM is not the biggest scam forced on this country by Politicians of all breeds and those who wish to control us even more?
This is forced on this country by the likes of James Shaw who has absolutely no experience, expertise or actual working knowledge of the ETS, Carbon Credits, but everyone bows down to him, meekly.
Again today read this stuff. Its the EU behaving as it always does and NZ will be a target.
Was able to help dispose of two dozen oysters on my trip south, they were $27 a dozen. Cooked with chips and 2 eggs here locally $54 a dozen.
Was looking through some of my old records and came upon Max McCauley singing The Bluff Oyster Song in which he was singing oysters are far too dear, could not afford 95 cents for a dozen and still afford a jug at 33 cents. My recollection is that jugs were 33 cents in 1972 and thereabouts, I remember that because then, just married, could get a jug, a bacardi and coke and a packet of chips for a dollar with change – I used to get full sacks of oysters and some stage during the early 70’s for I think $20.
Times have changed.

Last time I was in Kaikoura, fresh crayfish from Cod and Crays ( opp the BP ) was $180 a kilo.

Shots fired by Luxon. Watch Cindy double down on this one, against public sentiment. She’s backed into a corner here, as she’s already publicly backed Williams. Nice work. He’s also right; Williams is a waste of space, and has to go.

OTOH keeping the most incompetent as ministers leading up to the election has value too. If they actually found someone competent the public might support them and give Labor another term.
There’s not even a ripple in that there puddle. The all sunk to the bottom!
The only reason Cindy keeps these incompetent fools as ministers is show the public they are worse than she is. Not by much, but a little teeny bit.
HHHHHHHAAAAAAAAA, She’s shit for brains!
God knows she only has to front it what do all of the staff do?

Hooker Phil ,My Dad spent many years on the coastal shipping that used to operate in NZ ,we had a constant supply of large flat cans about 250mm across and 50mm high of frozen oysters, Ma would give them away to friends and neighbors at every chance and us kids never got sick of eating battered oysters and chips.
Dad also bought 20 liter square cans of mutton birds with a round opening that were preserved somehow as they would sit in a cupboard as we ate our way through them ,Wow times have changed with $54,00 for oysters eggs and chips
That’s why they invented the ISO container!
Revvy your muttonbirds are now horrendous price aswell, north of 500bux a bucket now! I remember in my early teens they were 80bux a bucket.
Just another tax free earn for the bros, been a ripper year too ive heard of many harvestinf 300 odd buckets…. x$500 =

Maori lead the way in reducing family violence.
Bollocks. Hahahahaha!
They are the greatest perpetrators of the weasly worded “Family Violence in this country, by a long, long way. There scores of Maori named and run organisations funded by the Government claiming to be working towards reducing family violence, but here in the King Country, reports over the years do not seem to have shown any reduction in “Family Violence’ and the cases which Police deal with or go before the Courts.
Why does it seem that there are only Maori organisations run by Maori, for Maori claiming to be working to reduce “Family Violence” however, I am unaware of any European, Indian, Chinese or Chilean organisation in this country, doing the same.

How many now where the family clam up on the threat of the bash!
Maori organisations are leading the way because there aren’t any others. Anybody can win a race of one.

ANZ raises their fixed home loan rates to the highest in the current mortgage market, underpinned by rising policy rates that are raising wholesale rates

I was just speaking with a builder. He does commercial. They are starting to get calls, from sticks n gib heapers, looking for work.
Of course they put their rates up to pay for all the queernes taking free sex change holidays!

Deposit rates seem glued to the bottom though!
WTF? Do any of these idiots have any idea how farms work? They’re not laboratories.
“Under the recommended scheme, farm businesses would have to report their emissions data, devise a greenhouse gas management plan and pay levies on the amount of methane and long-lived gases emitted.”
Climate change: Long-awaited recommendations for how to tax agricultural emissions revealed
While recently travelling vast distances through farming areas, I noted it was rare to see animals. The stocking rates are very low. Any emissions are offset by the huge amount of vegetation.
The net effect is most farms absorb more co2 than they emit.
Tell these idiots that grass, shelter belts, orchards, shade trees etc should be included in calculations and you would get a blank stare.
“”It’s really important that we get this right. Customers around the world are demanding higher levels of sustainability in the products they buy, so there is the potential for real competitive …”
I thought this sustainability buzzword was a different issue to the climate change BS.
The big problem for farmers is Luxon is neck deep into all this BS and will not change or challenge anything they bring in.
Customers are demanding cheaper food. Organic farming is possible. We just need 5 billion city dwellers to starve.
Intensive farming is the result of mass urban living. Not the greed of farmers. All cities are built on the backs of farmers.
A point not lost on this poor old cocky broken down by a lifetime of hard yakka. I’m still waiting for a response from the local Council to my offer to pose for a statue of the Noble Pastoralist to be cast in bronze & be erected on the lawn outside the proposed new civic buildings. 🙂
Bet you someone will be all too willing to turn out with the mighty clipboard to do all that for you at a small fee of course!!!
Perhaps you could put up photos on how you would like to be erected Nasska..?
I feel it may be better not to feature my erection lest it cause depression amongst the not so well endowed townsfolk stigie. 🙂
Looking at Sky News au the other day, they had a bloke on the panel who was either a scientist or climate change guru saying that the tons of carbon dioxide taken up by the forests and grass lands in Australia is a shit load more tons than they emit..?
He reckons they should be paid by the World Climate Institutions because they are better than nett zero.
Very interesting listening to this fella !~
Cows only emit the CO2 they took in from plants. Therefore they are carbon neutral.
The don’t generate gas – they release it.
That’s why grassland was exempt from the farming emissions. Grass absorbs far too much to be allowed as it would have proven farming is great for the environment where animals are grass fed.
Insanity
Saggy that plan is designed for maximum revenue generated for consultants… there goes another 10k per year farmers have to dish out to a third party for the privilidge of paying more taxes to buy unicorns.

The thought of replacing Jacinda with the bald Jacinda fails to delight me for some reason.
Plus the low rate of Labour’s fall. I hope theirs is being buoyed and Nationals taxed.
Where is the undecided figure? Were TOP ever at 2% ? Was Matt King’s party offered as an option?
So cannot take this poll that seriously and I agree with SA.
I don’t think King has registered his party yet.
I’m feeling a bit more confident about Ardern’s demise, the trend is in the right direction. Also think that this will consolidate when Labour gets its ass kicked in Tauranga. Currently the National dude there has polling of 56% whereas Bridges got 44%. Looks a big swing.
Bob, could not agree more, I think when the Tauranga result is in, Labour will be looking very ill indeed and this will compound their demise.
Can’t say I will shed a tear.
Me neither…changing my name to Bob the EX Builder! Never has the building industry been in such deep shit. Watch for the flow on effects down the line.
Maybe Ardern and her clowns could learn a bit from Russia, if they think they can do anything about prices and inflation.

No, you are not the only one. Gilbert is another one of the lefty academic mafia whose opinions are given far too much publicity.
Tarquin, Gilbert has been the gangs Bum Boy since he was just out of nappies.
He has set himself up as an expert and an academic, but in reality, he is just another wannabe who has achieved nothing and grown the wealth of this country, not one iota.

The same applies to cows:
So, on the face of it, we humans are a significant contributor to global warming. But, in reality, the CO2 we’re breathing out is part of a natural cycle, by which our bodies convert carbohydrates from CO2-absorbing plants into energy, plus water and CO2. As such, we’re not adding any extra CO2

From the United States:
Very impressive to read about this…
Pretty Amazing! A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of states and arrived at a striking conclusion: There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin .. Allow me to restate that number: 600,000! Over the last several months, Wisconsin ‘s hunters became the eighth largest army in the world. (That’s more men under arms than in Iran . More than France and Germany combined. ) These men, deployed to the woods of a single American state, Wisconsin, to hunt with firearms, and NO ONE WAS KILLED. That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania and Michigan ‘s 700,000 hunters, ALL OF WHOM HAVE RETURNED HOME SAFELY. Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it literally establishes the fact that the hunters of those four states alone would comprise the largest army in the world. And then add in the total number of hunters in the other 46 states. It’s millions more. ________ The point? _______________________________________ America will forever be safe from foreign invasion with that kind of home-grown firepower! Hunting… it’s not just a way to fill the freezer. It’s a matter of national security. *************************************** That’s why all enemies, foreign and domestic, want to see us disarmed. Food for thought, when next we consider gun control, whether you agree with it or not. Overall it’s true, so if we disregard some assumptions that hunters don’t possess the same skills as soldiers, the question would still remain… What army of 2 million would want to face 30 million, 40 million, or 50 million armed citizens??? For the sake of our freedom, don’t ever allow gun control or confiscation of guns. (IF YOU AGREE, AS I DO, PASS IT ON, I FEEL GOOD THAT I HAVE AN ARMY OF MILLIONS WHO WOULD PROTECT OUR LAND AND I SURE DON’T WANT THE GOVERNMENT TAKING CONTROL OF THE POSSESSION OF FIREARMS) GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

Can anyone remember which lying sack of shit * stated frequently during 2021, “the Pfizer vaccine is safe & effective”?
Yet about six months later:
……”Covid-19 vaccination is going to lead to mass depopulation.
This is a pretty bold claim to make. ‘Your Government is trying to kill you’ is even bolder.
But unfortunately, these bold claims are now backed up with a mountain of evidence, and most of that evidence can be found in the confidential Pfizer documents that the U.S. Food & Drug Administration has been forced to publish by court order.”…….

Speaker Trevor Mallard dodges questions over handling of Parliament protest
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2022/06/speaker-trevor-mallard-dodges-questions-over-handling-of-parliament-protest.html
However, Opposition MPs on the committee were keen to question Mallard over the protest on the forecourt of Parliament in February and its aftermath – including the trespass notices handed down to a number of former MPs, including former deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters.
He shut down a number of questions about the protest, saying he was there to comment on issues related to future expenditure.
Mallard refused to answer media questions after the committee, walking past reporters repeating “no comment”.

Just checking in – that you Winston haters are still happy Ardern has unfettered power – as you wished?
Is she more or less extreme?
Let us know geniuses 😃
It was dark & stormy night in deepest Southland when a young lad decided to visit a friend. Still a distance from his destination his car broke down & it began to rain so heavily that he couldn’t see his hands in front of him. He walked for as long as he could but the rain became too much to bear. He found a tree & stood beneath it hoping for a lift.
Hours went by & he was beginning to give up hope. It was a quiet road indeed that he had found himself on. The next town wasn’t for miles so he’d have to stay the night under this tree if he didn’t find a ride.
Just as things were looking grim, he catches a light moving slowly towards him. He’s saved!
Desperate for a ride, he jumps into the vehicle once it stops for him. Once in, he turned to the driver seat to say thanks & only then did he realise that the then moving car had no driver. The rain was so heavy, he couldn’t even hear the sound of the engine as the car slowly continued its journey.
The lad was too scared to move, too afraid to jump out of the car & run. Seeing the car was coming to a sharp bend that lead down to dark water he began to pray for his life. He was sure the ghost car would go off the road & into the river, where he would surely drown!
Right before the car made it to the bend, a shadowy hand reached in through the driver side window & turned the wheel, guiding the car around the bend, thus avoiding a wet demise for the lad. Just as silently, the hand disappeared through the window & the hitchhiker was alone again.
Paralysed with fear, the lad watched the hand reappear every time they reached a bend. Finally, scared to near death, he’d had all he could take & jumped out of the car & ran towards the first town he could find.
Wet & in shock, he went into the nearest pub & told everybody about his supernatural experience. A silence enveloped the room & everybody got goosebumps when they realised the guy was telling the truth about the strange car & the ghostly hand that guided it on its way.
Just then, two men walked into the bar. They were dripping wet & as they took off their rain gear, they looked around the room. Their eyes came to rest on the hitchhiker. They pointed at him ominously & he feared they were ghosts come to get him.
“Look!” said one of the men, “There’s the idiot who jumped into our car when we were pushing it in the rain.”
Fletchers caught stock piling Gib to push up prices;

The Gib n Sticks market is fake through and through. Then it’s financed with fake money. Yet the sheeple devote their “lives” to it.

Kea: ark ark ark sticks n gib ark ark ponzi, devoted, evil landlords…
Also kea: goes home to a pile of sticks n gib rented from an evil landlord devoted to the ponzi.
Youre contributing to the problem bro, practice what you preach and go live in a tent on public land for the rest of your life …. yup thought so, you love the ponzi and the part you play in it 🙂
Jesus bro CALM DOWN!!! 💥
Hey did ya see your bum buddy Mikey’s link today?
“ Dropping $50K a week’: Prices slashed on thousands of listings”
Bwaaaaahahahaha 🤣
Yawn…. zero fucks given mate, valuations just some numbers conjured up to make a few ppl feel good.
Real investors and home owners will largely not give a flying fuck about it, price drops only affect speculators and those forced to sell.
Is your rent crashing too?…. nup, upity up it goes 🙂
Well it’s not going up $50k a week LOL 😂
Now calm down and have a nice cup of Horlicks by the fire. I think you’ve had enough internet today. 🔥
Haven’t heard that word Horlicks for years, can’t remember what it even looks like or what’s in it.
Is it something that comforts you on a cold night having to sleep in ya Honda Shitty hoping the motor doesn’t die and the heater ceases working !~
You just lost $50,000 today.
No wonder you’re so emotional. Hugs bro 🤗
Horlicks is available today at Countdown. Go cuddle up on the couch with Stupid and Mikey. 🤣😂😂
……”Horlicks”……
Nah, you muppet! That’s oral sex on K Road. 🙂
You know so much Nasska !~
😁😁😂😂
You win. 😆 😆 😆
Can Lea’s lick or does the beak get in the way creating a nose job?

Can’t gib board be manufactured in this country or imported from a cheaper country?
Winstone Wallboards (currently owned by Fletcher Building) has been manufacturing GIB® plasterboard in NZ for over 90 years. Until recently their only competition has been Elephant Plasterboard made in Thailand. (3% market penetration).
Fletchers have long used their dominant market position to prevent competitor’s products being distributed & anecdotally have caused Local Authority regulations to lock out all competition.
https://www.globalgypsum.com/news/item/928-elephant-plasterboard-makes-fresh-allegations-on-new-zealand%E2%80%99s-wallboard-market
I’d love to see them fried for their actions. It’s crony capitalism at its worst.
The govt want to smash the supermarket duopoly yet its crickets on the gib monopoly.
Massive changes need made at council/ consenting level as many inspectors wont sign off unless its genuine gib thats been used, if another product is specified at planning stages it can cause massive holdups seeking approval so most designers specify gib for ease and less hassles.
There will likely be a good money trail in the background to keep the scam going, they cant have cheap elephant board at ⅓ of the price flood the market.
“ wont sign off unless its genuine gib ”
So a government enforced monopoly. It’s like saying you can’t get your car registered unless it’s a Mazda.
Think harder. Your brain fades when you think about gib n sticks. Which is a crap lining material anyway.
Forgodsake, it’s everywhere. I frequently use Goodreads. Today I noticed a big pink banner saying “Celebrating Pride Month” and inviting you to “discovery new books by LGBTQI+ authors.” I’m getting so sick of this shit in my face everywhere I turn. LGBTQI authors can go fuck each other. I’ll read an author because he or she is good, not because he or she is a fag.
……”LGBTQI authors can go fuck each other.”…….
They’re at it like rabbits as you type. 🙂
There used to be a tv ad, “we stand behind every bed”
Now they don’t have to stand behind every bed as they’re always telling us who they want to have sex with. Quite frankly STFU.

Not going well for Ardern and Chief Plod. People flogging firearms licences –what could that be for??
https://thebuzz.nz/auckland-police-station-burgled-gun-licenses-taken/
They have been producing fake ID’s years for what ever suits their purpose.
7 May, 2014 …. Dozens of fake driving licences and a false passport were allegedly used by a drug ring to hide luxury cars, millions of dollars in cash, firearms and property. ….
…. “We say they’ve used false ID to open storage [facilities] or purchase assets, like a vehicle, in someone else’s name.
So when the police come along, they’re hoping that we don’t find out about the false identity and take the assets. It’s one way of trying to get around the asset forfeiture laws.” ….

Yet the government intends to make compliant legitimate citizens suffer for their total governmental stupidity while pushing for total control and subjection.

Ross Ardern and his dispicable behavoir.
https://www.thedailyexaminer.co.nz/new-zealand-citizens-under-house-arrest-for-pfizer-non-compliance-ross-ardern-suddenly-resigns/
From V2’s link:
In early August of last year “Ross Ardern instead added his rebuke of the family members by telling them to stop listening to silly people on the internet and trust the Government for truth.” AFTER
On March 14 last year, Prime Minister Ardern told reporters at a press conference in Rotorua:
“Do feel free to visit covid19.govt.nz – otherwise dismiss anything else. We will continue to be your single source of truth. When you see those messages [on social media], remember that unless you hear it from us, it is not the truth.”
Emboldened & deluded by their execrable religious backgrounds the unbelievably arrogant Ardern dynasty continues to spread ignorance & death via Pfizer.
Why did Ross Ardern suddenly resign?
Was he been taken to court?
Was he about to become an embarrassment to his daughter?
What else is coming down the turnpike?
A search on “Presearch” brings up:

Even cartoons of him he still looks like a fuckwit.
Hows this for stupidity…
Nats want to ban gang patches (easy identification theyre in a gang)
Then they suggest a law to prevent 3 or more gang members from gathering… but now no way to easy identify them.
Imo let them wear their patches, it just lets the rest of us know theres scum within sight. All removing them will do is make them wolves in sheeps clothing.
Any govt/politician is dreaming if they think they can outwit/beat the gangs. Aussie has been far more harsh on gangs and yet theyre still there as strong as ever except theyre now more wise and covert but still killing each other.
SB, it is more the Middle Eastern gangs doing each other in. They are the difficult very dangerous critters and much harder to identify than OMC members.
In Queensland, it was Premier Campbell Newman who bought in the very first tough gang legislation, no gang regalia, Plod being able to photo tattoo’s on gang members for later identification, no consorting. It worked, the gangs in Queensland buggered off to Norther NSW. The NSW Govt criticised Campbell Newmand Government for these anti gang laws but within a short time enacted similar legislation.
Similar legislation to what Queensland has would work here but the Govt, Greens and the Lovies would be apoplectic, so won’t happen here, The people will just have to put up with shit from lowlifes.
Doctors Suing Food and Drug Administration Over Ivermectin
By Alice Giordano
June 6, 2022 Updated: June 6, 2022
A Washington law firm has filed a federal lawsuit against the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for interfering with the use of ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19.
The lawsuit was filed by Boyden Gray & Associates on behalf of three doctors who were disciplined for prescribing human-grade ivermectin to patients.
The firm’s founder, attorney Boyden Gray, is a former legal adviser to the Reagan and Bush administrations.
Gray told The Epoch Times that the FDA had violated well-established law that allows doctors to prescribe an FDA-approved drug as an off-label treatment.
Ivermectin was no different, he said. It was approved by the FDA in 1966.
“Congress recognized the importance of letting doctors be doctors and expressly prohibited the FDA from interfering with the practice of medicine,” Gray said.
“That is exactly what the FDA has done time and time again throughout this pandemic, assuming authority it doesn’t have and trying to insert itself in the medical decisions of Americans everywhere.”

“Government officials are doing a cost-benefit analysis around potentially requiring dominant supermarket companies to sell retail stores to make way for new players.
You have got to be kidding.
Any guesses on who theyll be forced to sell to…
Nania or willie have probs got some family members all lined up for the acquisition.
Yep, Tex Edwards from 2 Degrees and his Maori mates will be lining up for this to further line their already well lined pockets.

Another sports man down.
A New Zealand-born sailor and father of two is being mourned “all over the world” after he died while competing in America at the weekend.
New Plymouth-raised professional sailor Hayden Goodrick, who had been living in Colorado with his young family, died after having chest pains during an event in Newport, Rhode Island. He was 38.
Hayden’s early career started when his uncle gifted him lessons at the New Plymouth Yacht Club as a pre-teen.
But his drive for the sport saw him chase his dream all over the globe, taking part in the America’s Cup, as a key member of BMW Oracle in 2007, and founding the US One Sailing team – driving it to success in 2013.

He said don’t bother. Didn’t know how he got the job.

Remember our resident property trolls telling us this would never happen and property would never decrease in price?
The dirty filthy liars.
Yawn, you have the same mindset as climate change fanatics.
Focusing on anomalies whilst completely disregarding long term trends.
Kea o wise one and the great nostradamus of ysb what will house prices be doing in 5yrs and 10yrs from now?… dont get triggered by facts and reality 🙂 we all know theyre certainly not going to be cheaper then today.
Trends birdy ya gotta look at the trend.
Even better is to just be like most non speculative home owners and just dont give a stuff about it, its only reallybrelevanr by those in the market unless… you trying to by a pile of sticks and gib to nest in? Nah, even better i rekon youre a failed real estate agent 🙂 no wonder youre so fixated and triggered when it comes to housing.
How many of those 30k unsold trademe listings are yours bro?
Iaasb, yeah but I didn’t say that. The bank did.
Why do you insist on attacking me for what banks and data collectors say? It’s very strange. I wonder what’s going on?
“ Kea o wise one and the great nostradamus of ysb what will house prices be doing in 5yrs and 10yrs from now?”
This is me writing. Not quoting the banks you owe money to and who you rent money from. Ok cockbreath?
Prices should be upitty up up in 10 years.
Ive told you before birdy in dont owe a bank 1 cent.
Whats the point crowimg about a crash if its still gunna be upitty up in the future. Its not a crash then, just a slight fender bender.
Its ok bro im sure youll sell a house or 2 and get to keep your job.
Birds got nothin. Was cleaned out by a Russian hooker, took everthing, which was fuck all by the way. Lives in a 1992 Honda City close to public shithouses. Gotta be a law against it. Oh the humanity.😂
The public shithouses probably feature glory holes close by !~
If people keep dying from the genocide jab, there could be a surplus of houses and not enough people to live in them. Then you would see a proper crash. But by then you would own nothing and ….how does it go…….
Just a little bit further to fall & the over-leveraged ticket clippers will abandon their hovels to market forces & we can bid farewell to the parasitic class. Banks will be loath to lend unless borrowers have a reasonable deposit which will depress the market even further.
Finally decent people will be able to buy homes & start families.
Such a suck cock and balls lefty. Ex truck driver to boot. What went wrong? Too much Mary Jane maybe?😂
Now, now kids. Play nicely.
Nothing went wrong. I made my quid via forestry then farming but success doesn’t necessarily blind one to the type of society we wish to live in. Note that you could search every comment I’ve ever made on any blog without finding one favourable reference to bleeding heart, socialistic shit.
What I’ve always advocated is home ownership as a road to social inclusion, community involvement & stable families. IOW pride which can never be instilled in people who don’t even know where they’ll be living next month.
The only vehicle I’ve ever seen deliver these outcomes was the State Advances scheme of the 60s & 70s which delivered all of the above & ensured that sufficient new builds occurred to satisfy demand & ensure tradesmen were available to build them.
What we have now & pay heavily for is social engineering which doesn’t come within a country mile of delivering the equivalent social good of home ownership.
Renting sucks balls!
You nailed it nasska. The housing situation has not only destroyed our economy, but has wrecked our social fabric. This has created fertile ground for the far left marxists to seize control.
You want to know why we have Ardernism, then look to our housing costs.

Well I did warn them.

Labour is betting that inflation has peaked.
Will Labour be forced into a snap election?
Panicked by the cost of living, the Government has introduced a temporary three-month cost of living package for 2.1 million adults that will cost $814 million. About 82 per cent of the population will be receiving their income in full or part from the government.
Every cent of the package will have to be borrowed.
It is unsustainable. Politically, it is a huge risk.
The granting of a benefit is rarely appreciated. After all, the Budget produced no jump in the polls. However, the withdrawal of a benefit always produces an angry response.
Unless the Government can point to inflation having dropped dramatically, Labour will anger 2.1 million voters.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/richard-prebble-will-labour-be-forced-into-a-snap-election/XBWZZO6SAAKFV3BUKHVEZKMOJM/
By October it will be clear whether inflation is falling. Even if it has, people will notice the loss of $27 a week just before Christmas.
If inflation is still elevated, then removing the income support will be one of the most unpopular decisions by any government. Overseas, people riot for less. It will be electoral suicide.
But deciding to continue the income support, having just 18 per cent of the population supporting the other 82 per cent, will shred whatever economic credibility Labour has.
The only way to avoid having to cancel or extend the income support package would be for Labour to find an excuse to call a snap election.
She wouldn’t like that option!
Will she bail off the ship like a rat!

Watch: Speaker Trevor Mallard barges through media, refuses to take questions over protest handling
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2022/06/watch-speaker-trevor-mallard-barges-through-media-refuses-to-take-questions-over-protest-handling.html
Speaker Trevor Mallard was ducking questions on Wednesday, storming out of a Select Committee and through media.
“No comment,” he repeated to reporters.
Mallard also refused to answer MPs’ questions at the committee about the protest at Parliament and the trespass notices handed down afterwards.
“It’s not in the public interest to go into things which are currently before the courts.”
The Opposition’s not buying it.
“I can tell you there is immense public interest in what happened here at Parliament just a few short months ago,” said National shadow leader of the House Chris Bishop.
“The common denominator through all of Trevor Mallard’s manoeuvres is that they protect Trevor, not any public interest,” said ACT leader David Seymour.
Fucking arrogant arsehole.
Coward, and a wanker.
I see Bishop and Seymour have forgotten to mention their lack of response to meeting with the protesters. A few MPs going down the steps to speak to protesters is all they were demanding. None of them seem to want to remember they are our representatives.

Australia has ‘crucified’ the coal industry
Regulation Economics Principal Dr Alan Moran said a transition to renewables is a transition to a “much more expensive form of electricity than the one we have already”.
“We have vilified the coal generators,” he told Sky News host Chris Kenny.
Hosking interviewed some guy this morning that is raising $300 m to build wind farms up north.
Probably enough gullible people to support the project.
One year ago, going solar and raising 300 m.
May 12 2021 : …. five solar energy farms …
….. capable of providing about 1 per cent of the country’s electricity supply. ….
https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/125090584/300m-plan-for-five-solar-energy-farms-providing-1pc-of-countrys-supply
Supposedly to start at the end of this year 2022 and completed by 2023
So another 300 m. for wind farms, or still solar going by this link.
Wed, 8 Jun 2022 : ….. biggest solar energy venture in New Zealand, is another step closer. ….
