The master negotiator is left with rotting eggs all over his nude nut. Yesterday’s announcement of an agreement between the three parties over policy looks a little premature to say the least.
Prediction
ACT will give up their referendum call.
National will give up their foreign buyers tax.
Winston will give up nothing.
Sounds good to me.
i notice theres very little mentioned about Act all the coverage is nude nut and winnies coalition talks… ACT confidence but not supply like he mentioned???
i think nats would have to offer too big of a bribe for seymour to ditch the referendum.
If Luxon excludes a referendum on Maorification and fails to roll it back effectively electors will deliver their punishment 2026, not necessarily defeat for National but a increase in the party vote for ACT and possibly a large increase in smaller right aligned parties party vote and possible spillover to electorate seats. To misquote – beware the ides of Te Treaty.
As big a bribe as Seymour got from Pfizer?
“safe and effective”
If Seymour got that, imagine what ardern and labour got, along with Bloomers. See he’s been rewarded with a fancy job and execess pay to go with it!
Only sadly he is no negotiator really is he? I don’t think he is good for anything much at all. Davos Dave might not give up the referendum but I bet he has never dealt with anyone as wily as old Winston. You would have to be up in the morning very early to get what he thinks and nude nut has not the skills nor the ability to deal with him. Hope he gets everything he campaigned on.
On a brighter note at least it is not raining this morning. I may get the lawn mown before the next lot of rain is due.
Have a safe day out there today Hippy kins is in charge and we need to be safe.
Lizzie, problem with the Old Aged Pensioner from Herne Bay as I see it, is that he is able to get a lot of what he asks for but has very little ability to understand or carry out the finer details of any agreement his name is attached too.
The same will happen within this coalition agreement when or if it comes to fruition.
Is this the same Winston who was going to be the first down the Pike River Mine after Andrew Little said he was going to open it up as it was safe?
But it was never safe, Little was just telling porkies. There is a very dangerous bottomless pit inside that mine. Close to $100M has fallen into that hole since 2017.
Perhaps Winston, like many of us, figured out that it was just a giant Ponzi scheme,to buy votes and line the pockets of Labour sycophants, by dancing on the graves of the dead, and didn’t want to endorse it.
I’ve heard much more was spent than that. Coppers have a more flexible budget arrangement, like the unaccountable CIA spenders. Good place to dig for another Pike story.
The 3 great lies,
(1] We’re close to a historic coalition agreement.
(2) the cheques in the mail,
(3) There’s light at the end of the tunnel,
Oh yeah and the unforgettable one from the Wellington maggot, “NO”..
Heading towards 6 weeks and nothing is changing, they are still lying through their teeth it’s pathetic.
Wait until We see what the maggot manages to arse ream out of the “great negotiator” LOL.
So the diversity hire fagg Maddie McLain is giving notice he’s leaving TV1 for his dream job working on some drive time radio show I’ve never heard of ,oh yeah Maddie We all believe you, maybe it’s because you were a talentless mono toned drone that should be thanking your lucky stars you made it in TV for so long, maybe he was one of the executives bitch.
The question is WTF is his replacement going to look like ,the absolute sure bet is they’ll be Native and I’d take that bet with anyone.
Alice ,I suffer 10 minutes of 1 & 3 at 6am just to see what they say is going on ,on many mornings I don’t get past 5 minutes, I never watch any other NZ TV in fact We didn’t have it until my Mrs downloaded free to air a few weeks before the election.
Revtech – His exit will probably improve TV1 output – how do you measure 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000001%?

OPEC are meeting shortly to discuss how to keep the price of oil at $80 to $100 a barrel.
Trumpy at a rally in Iowa in the weekend said when he is back as president it will be “drill,drill, drill”.
He wants the USA to be energy independent.
Of course after negotiations are over NN is going to utter the same cry drill, drill, drill.
Some Opec memebers will regret their current manipulation of the oil prices when the global world food shortage hits and they discover the effects of supply and demand, logistic disruption and suppliers – USA/Canada – being less than enthusiastic of treating them as priority customers by reminding them these are the rules you played by we are simply following your example.

‘Of course after negotiations are over NN is going to utter the same cry drill, drill, drill’.
Based on his current lack of performance, the only possible response has to be ‘Yeah, right!’.

Yet another National MP apologises.
Fucking media at it again.
Bastards.
A witch hunt by how the media twisted into a sound byte, what he did not say:— .
Then plus the sly ethnic victim reference, in the link, where that can only be a NZ citizen!, as we are not in Sri Lanka now.
….. In a recording of the speech leaked to RNZ, Brewer can be heard declaring himself a “glass ceiling breaker” to laughs from the crowd. ….

Trap them later like Winston Peters, but sure I know, they also cut Winston Peters call out of them receiving the media bribe, the other night.
Explaining is loosing, but fuck the conniving commie media ! ! !
Are the media resurrecting the apology made back in June?
…. Commerce Commission “need a bullet.” …
https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/491158/national-mp-apologises-for-saying-commerce-commission-need-a-bullet
Damm I love his language, at least he called them out.
At the bottom of the article I see he has retired from politics.
So why apologise, oh NN made him!
NN, The BIG I AM!
From the article:
“The Commerce Commission is one of the evils that we see in this country. The Commerce Commission has got everything wrong it’s ever done in the last 20 years.
“There has been no decision that the Commerce Commission has made that has been right.”
“Bennett later said the commission could not be trusted.”
So why do the Commerce Commission survive if the CC are doing a crap job for the taxpayers and country?
Not only surviving, but growing. And there’s significant overlap with MBIE (another bloated waste of money).
The coalition need to look at organisations such as Com Com as well as the public service when slashing deadweight.
Some guy in Argentina just won an election by giving the finger to the apologizers.
The only thing NN is good at, making his MPs apologise, I’d tell him to FO.
He is no good at negotiating? ruling the negotiations for the national party? I bet the other two are running rings around him. He is Useless
Don’t think he is any good at anything really.
Good riddance. More of this remedy please.
Wainuiomata man shot by police was a deportee with a history of violent crime
Ryan Anderson05:00, Nov 21 2023
The man shot by police on Thursday in Wainuiomata on Thursday, Tane Wipa, is believed to have been deported to New Zealand in 2012 due to a history of violent offending, Stuff understands.
According to police, a man had been shot one time after threatening his partner with a weapon. Stuff understands he, Wipa, was wielding a screwdriver and holding it to her neck.
He died at the scene despite police providing medical assistance. The woman involved was not injured.
https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/133318924/wainuiomata-man-shot-by-police-was-a-deportee-with-a-history-of-violent-crime
Look out for all the wailing and he was a good boy shit.
Pigs murder maintenance worker as he tightens lose screws to help out a neighbour ‼️
I hope the medical attention he received was opening up an artery.
Be sure to tell your doctor that,
if you need an emergency
medical procedure.
Wow that must have been a good shot! To hit the target when he was so close to his intended victim was brilliant marksmanship.
‘Brilliant marksmanship’
Fuck off. The pigs using
firearms against perps
have an appalling track record.
Why only one shot? Is there a scarcity of rounds in New Zealand. Double Tap is the ony way to go, unless the hostage specifically made it too difficult. And why offer medical assistance. When you shoot, you usually shoot to kill, or you don’t shoot. It’s that simple.
He died at the scene despite police providing medical assistance.
Head shot?
Where did they apply the tourniquet?
Or was it a compression bandage?
So would the media have one believe that he never committed any crimes in NZ?
Threatened, intimidated people?
send him home.
The aussies need him They are runnig short of crimes.
A 42-year-old Australian citizen who attempted to launder more than $300,000 with his ex-lover is set to be deported from New Zealand, according to a recent immigration tribunal ruling.
The pair were stopped at Auckland Airport in 2019 – cash and expensive watches in hand.
https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/immigration/301011931/aussie-who-laundered-more-than-300k-argues-against-deportation-on-humanitarian-grounds
The man, whose name has been suppressed, pleaded guilty to charges of engaging in money laundering and attempting to export a prohibited good (money) and served 11 months of home detention before he was issued a deportation notice.
Was he a national sportsman they usually get name suppression as it would wreck their careers. AND it was in 12019 FFS why is that just coming to the fore now?
So he was stopped at the airport and prevented from leaving – and now he is fighting deportation because he doesn’t want to leave. Geez fella, make up your mind!
After all, it’s only fair!
Since Matty the bender resigned from T.V things have been very difficult around here, Riccardo is beside himself and flouncing even more than usual, Chloe is on a handful of Ritalin just to hold it together – just between me, you and the gate post it isn’t working too well. Mrs Mugabe and the Persian rug are organizing a petition and a march to get him to stay. He hasn’t said it, but we intuitive Greens all know he’s being pushed out by cis white males for being gay. This sort of travesty is also why we support the Palestinians. I’m thinking of starting a give a little page to send him over there to organise a hui that will help everyone calm down.
Isn’t he leaving because the government ischanging sometime?
Normally in this situation I would be organising a high list placing for him. Unfortunately he is not a person of colour or an opressed muslim, however he did get high points for being an emotionally frail mincing weirdo who thinks he’s funny. When I suggested this Riccardo had a hissy fit and fainted, so with Chloe already well on her way to mars and Marama getting more genocidal by the day we don’t rock the hemp boat at the moment. I’m sure we will find room for such an amazing talent in 3 years.
Tarquin, LOFL.
T, he can always take up the recreational activity of Uphill Gardening. Ohh, that’s right, he’s already doing that, will have to suggest something else.
But there are no tall buildings left in Gaza to throw him off. The Jews did it!
Another approved solution is pushing a wall over on them, or a good old-fashioned Iranian-style crane hanging, so they should be good to carry on.
Got sent this from a friend. Read it, its very good.

“Democracy must belong to all of us” Dennis Chavez

My worry is that much of the bridges built at the end of the tunnel in Auckland may have had dodgy cement. I remember someone talking about this a few years ago.

Just after New Years, 50 year old Bob went to his doctor for his annual physical and confided that he was sick of his wife and wanted to kill her. Bob asked the doctor if he knew of any drugs that would do the job without suspicion.
Not wanting to be part of a murder, the doctor told Bob “Don’t do that. All you need to do is screw her twice a day and take her dancing in every nightclub in town. She’ll be dead in a year.”
“Really?”, asked Bob.
“I guarantee it”, said the doctor.
So Bob left and the doctor blew a sigh of relief.
The year went by and around Thanksgiving, the doctor walked into a restaurant with a dance floor and sees Bob sitting in a chair. Bob’s hair is snow-white, he’s using a walker, and he looks like he’s 90 years old. The doctor looks out on the dance floor and sees Bob’s wife dressed in a miniskirt, leading a conga line, and pirouetting about like a ballerina. All he can do is stammer “My God, your wife looks terrific!”
Bob says “She sure does. And she’s only got a month to live.”
Top Tip:
Pedestrians, instead of using the footpath simply walk in the cycle lanes. This will minimise the chance of being hit by a bike or scooter.
Won’t trip over bloody roadcones, either!
By sheer hard work, beginning in the Depression, my father, with the help of his family, developed a dairy farm. Many such families exist in New Zealand – families who have worked together, who help one another, who serve the community voluntarily, who stand up for their children when they get into difficulties, and who help their members to achieve their goals.’
I believe the most effective government the country can have is one that believes in free enterprise, encourages hard work, keeps control and regulation to a minimum, carefully controls State spending, and sets taxation rates that are an incentive, not a disincentive, to work.’
It was his small farming background which frames his thinking. As for ‘working-class Tories’, Peters thinks that success derives principally from hard work and personal discipline. Such Tories can be suspicious of welfare because it tends to sap initiative. While they are often sympathetic to those in difficulty, they have an antipathy to collective action.

A pragmatic man of the people.
It comes down to will & can David Seymour do the heavy lifting?
Particularly where it aligns with ACT policy.
I do not think a wider scope for Commission of Inquiry of Covid-19 will eventuate, despite Seymour saying he would a few weeks before the election.
Will some other back bencher push & hold their feet to the fire? along side with some one like Brian Tamaki?
At least Julian Batchelor will continue on the Stop CoGovernance.
GroundSwell will also keep pushing on the systemic Emissions & Zero Carbon & 3-10 Water
So that leaves it how that social ‘influence’ from the alarmists media system keeps on drumming.
The time of the Bolger government was Bill Birch just quietly got on with things & did all the work around Budgets & so that the “The Treasurer” Winston Peters could make glorious announcements.
We are the ones who also have to make the most of how the cards have been dealt & be active.!
I had previously a negative view of Winston until I read NZ1st policies and was surprised how many I fully agreed with and how few I didn’t.
Freethinker, Winston/NZF always present a suitable basket of pre-election policies. He even gets appointed to important ministerial portfolios and even deputy pm. It’s keeping his ego and bluster in check that has been the downfall of his promises and expulsion until the next election round.
“Look here Sunshine, I’m not here for your benefit” or some similar refrain before Winston derails again. 🤣
Perhaps this time???? //
Yep been there done that. 👍
Looks like the market will sort this out anyway…
“Renewables facing “Enron-style collapse” says Venture Capitalist — Sustainability has become a dirty word”

CO2 and climate change. A good although slightly technical article
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2023/11/20/dlr-curiosities/
“Now, there are several things of note in this graph. ( you will need to click on the link to see the graph)
First, the total change in greenhouse radiation is more than three times the change due to CO2. Presumably, this must be from a combination of changes in water vapor, latent/sensible heat loss, atmospheric solar absorption, and increased surface temperature.
Next, CO2 is the minor player in the greenhouse DLR game. Non-CO2 clear-sky DLR increase over the 2000-2022 period was ~ 3.2 W/m2. Cloud DLR decrease was ~ 1 W/m2. But the CO2 change was only 0.7 W/m2, the smallest of the three.
Next, I theorized a couple of decades ago that thunderstorms, clouds, and other emergent phenomena act to oppose temperature changes and thereby stabilize the temperature. Since then, I’ve provided a variety of evidence to back up that claim. Here, in Fig. 1 you can see that while greenhouse DLR from CO2 and from water vapor are increasing, to the contrary, the greenhouse DLR from the clouds is decreasing. This is evidence in favor of my theory.”
“The solar constant at the top of Earth’s atmosphere is about 1.36 kW/m² At Earth surface, on a clear day with no cloud, it’s about 1.05 kW/m² on a surface normal to the direction to the Sun.”
The graph shows 342 watts per square meter. Why?

A quote from the new president of Argentina , which the new NZ Government MPS should have a screen saver on their computers so they do not forget it.
“The state does not create wealth; it only destroys it. The state cannot give anything because it doesn’t produce anything, and when it wants to do so, it does so badly,” Milei asserted.
Hell yes.
The problem is they see themselves as social engineers rather than essential service providers.
Tough running a business
Rodney Wayne slams ‘young people today’ for demanding living wage amid hairdresser shortage
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/lifestyle/2023/11/rodney-wayne-slams-young-people-today-for-demanding-living-wage-amid-hairdresser-shortage.html
“I don’t understand why they have to get the living wage.”
Wayne, the founder of Rodney Wayne Hair Salons, was recently inducted into the Franchise Association’s Hall of Fame and reckoned the past few years were the toughest in more than half a century being involved in the industry.
He told AM his business was plagued by staff shortages and believed New Zealand “stuffed up” its apprenticeship system.
Wayne said apprentices “demand” the living wage, which reflects the cost of living but differs from the legally required minimum wage.
COVID-19 lockdowns were “the most ridiculous two years we’ve ever had”, he said.
He was hopeful the incoming Government would fix migration settings to further ease those shortages.
…….” his business was plagued by staff shortages”……
Then he could try paying wages that made working for his business worthwhile or even irresistible. That’s the way the market economy, which the readership of this blog normally backs unconditionally, works.
Interesting. We have one person who doesn’t believe in the market economy. Or maybe just parts of it.
Hey Ed. The communists & aficionados of command economics have infiltrated your blog❗️
Bot tricky having a market economy when you have govt supplied welfare and pensions .
nasska, same as your landlord gripe the labour market cant function as a free market due to welfare state and minimum wage.
you do support the abolishing of minimum wage dont you? you must if you believe in a true market economy otherwise downtick yourself.
Welfare is totally out of control in this country. The dole & DPB for starters need pruned until there is no such thing as long term job vacancies. Then abolish Welfare for Landlords aka the accommodation supplement.
But your statement that ” the labour market cant function as a free market due to welfare state and minimum wage” is a crock of shit. Both are handbrakes on the economy but if an employer wants decent staff he/she better get their heads around the concept of paying more than fifty cents over the minimum wage.
If they have to raise prices for their products/services then so be it even though it will be inflationary. The pressure will then go where it should go……..on to the spendthrifts in Government.
The labour crowd have raised the minimum wage too high.
Especially for kids.
its because they see so many scummers do nothing and get paid pretty much minimum wage on welfare to sit home and get drugged n pissed up.
OMG –how far the judiciary have sunk.
” If you have any fraction of Maori in your bloodline, it is, according to a Family Court judge, “necessary to consider familial, community and cultural matters which are inherent in the development of the identity of a Maori child. These considerations are different from those for a Pakeha child.”
https://breakingviewsnz.blogspot.com/2023/11/peter-williams-end-judicial-activism.html#more
“These considerations are different from those for a Pakeha child.”
Dear Family Court Judge who can only think in terms of black and white,
There is more to modern NZ society than a) Pakeha and b) people who have a drop of Maori blood and who self-identify as “Maori.”
India and East Asia have joined the chat.
A Mischling Test. Not going to end well.
The Family Court Judge’s concern for “any fraction of Maori in your bloodline” will logically lead to the application of an Aotearoan Mischling Test.
This is something that we really do not want.
The modern world’s concept of citizenship in a nation will trump the notion of inherited race.
We are all New Zealanders now.
The perfect storm is coming. Uppity up up up up ⬆️
“The number of new listings on the market not keeping up with demand and putting upward pressure on house prices, Quotable Value’s (QV) latest House Price Index data show.
First home buyers are flooding the market in more affordable areas in a bid to get into a house before investors come back into the market and provide stiff competition.
Interest in buying property has been on an upward trajectory post-election and as the market heads towards what is typically the peak selling season, some buyers are looking to get in ahead of any perceived property price increases post-election.”
“Financial markets are pricing in an aggressive easing of almost three OCR cuts next year – a quantum leap from the RBNZ’s previous forecasts of no cut until the first quarter of 2025.””
Bring it on baby. Can’t wait to see how this all turns out. Labour tried to load the dice but the market system will prevail.

Wankers?
Hunty’s exes….
Kea scored some awesome light weight boots on special for his cross country run hike bush bash through horrendous limestone country around Mount Arthur.
Ever hunted there SB around Gordon’s Pyramid?
You ever tried Vibram FiveFingers Kea? I got some for hunting in summer as I’m not brave enough to go bare feet. But only used them a few times as didn’t like having no ankle support.
No Saggy and I like minimalist running shoes. But they are too much. There’s better choices.
I don’t need ankle support and run over rocks a lot. Though my Meindl boots have a ton.
stupid boy needs major ankle support so gets stuck with heavier type boots. used meindl makalu pros for almost 20yrs but the price of them and the frequency i now hunt made me reconsider so ive opted for a pair of garmont boots, not quite as good support but good enough and as a bonus theyre a bit lighter then the makalus.
i always wanted to hunt the table lands but couldnt be arsed with the walk in there. once i codged onto where the deer were hiding in takaka area i never had to go more then 30mins from home… just had to get good at being sneaky 🙂
Yeah don’t want to get caught in those deer farms!
Met a bloke once who was really into orienteering and hunting. He had these shoes that looked like normal running shoes on top, but underneath they had small titanium studs about half the size of the blunt end of a pencil. Don’t know what they were called but he swore by them for running/hunting over rocks.
nah only ever hunted the cobb or ATNP and that wasnt that often tbh cuz the 1080 smashed it pretty bad. was more productive to do a weekend mish down tapawera/murchison or even do a roadtrip down the westcoast.
Definitely more animals in those areas. But the weird things you see in that country makes it interesting. I’ve done well on deer around the table lands though.
absolute cracker day in southland, hot but humid and not a breath of wind. would be a great day out on the boat but instead stupid boy has sweated his balls off throwing hundreds of bloody tyres on a silage stack, im thankful to be back in air con cab in a silage truck again… not looking forward to covering another silage stack tonight tho!
i bet my next days off the weather will be atrocious and only come right when i go back to work, fml.
…….”has sweated his balls off throwing hundreds of bloody tyres on a silage stack”……
Look on the bright side. The stinking green water laden with mosquito larvae left in the tyres will spray over you & cool you down.
Been there, done that. 🙂
nasska, it went straight down my gumboots ffs. wet feet at 730am is a great way to start the day!
I hate wet feet. One of the worst things about hunting in NZ. Down the Coast you often climb out of the car and into the river. The rest of the time it’s wet ground wet bush wet rain wet animals. It’s great fun in the winter when your wet socks and wet boots freeze rock solid over night. 🤪
Why doesn’t he just buy beef in plastic trays like a normal person?

It seems we have to keep an eye on the feints, the old “shell game” while they may do a “bait & switch” as well about Environment, Sustainability Carbon Zero in creating another ponzi scheme. … etc..
…….. “ESG” was the next attempt to monetize the un-monetizable, with the “E” part of that acronym standing for Environment, ill-defined as that was.
Now ESG is failing. Market leaders say it is facing “a perfect storm of negative sentiment” and its U.S. investments fell by $163 billion in the first quarter of 2023 alone.
Its stepchild, Net-Zero, is so loathed, it looks like it might blow up the entire carbon scam.
Says Australian senator Matt Canavan, “Net-Zero has absolutely carked it. It is a soundbite and totally insane.
Almost everything we grow, we make, we do in our society relies on the use of fossil fuels.”
Vanguard has pulled out of Net-Zero funds.
The British government too is backing out of Net-Zero, saying “we won’t save the planet by bankrupting the British people.”
New Zealand’s new government revised the country’s Net-Zero plans in its first week in office.
In the hard hit Netherlands, the Farmer-Citizen movement is now the dominant party in the Dutch senate and every provincial assembly.
Sweden has abandoned its 100 percent Net-Zero plans and Norway has announced another $18 billion in oil and gas investments. ……..

and some of those political names came up in that fiasco.
One of the ironic things is that it seems the existing native bush in maori hands, would be paid out in ongoing carbon credits.
Maybe I am wrong, but I understand that ordinary New Zealanders that have stands of native bush receive no pay out or those Carbon Credits.
Most likely pay full rates for that land also.
Possibly minimum size may matter, but then that is a screw you as always has been in the “agenda 2021” etc., etc., as a lead to the total scamming by the corporates & their elites, whether maori or european.
Now can we point that MP National Sam Uffindell fraud consultant on to their game.
And sort out some wheat from the chaffe in the Serious Fraud Office.
That may well pay for some tax cuts 🙂
Edit : so right nasska,
How many other names, as trustees, directors, of those “pop-up” shelf companies.
Remember “nominees” is another way to hide names too.
“Maybe I am wrong, but I understand that ordinary New Zealanders that have stands of native bush receive no pay out or those Carbon Credits.”
That is correct S1 my understanding is that only trees planted after 1990 qualify.
Rachael’s comment about pasture is equally valid, no credit for grass even though they do sequester CO2. If native bush and grasslands were included NZ would already be carbon neutral.
The whole scheme is a gigantic scam.
Thanks Curious
“Only tree planted after 1990 qualify”
I recall some farmer at the time had planted thousands of trees on their farms, in riparian strips, wind breaks, spread on steep sidling’s etc., but they even though planted after 1990 did not fit into the strict criteria being applied, by canopy, and certain minimum measurements which I know left many farmers in those time totally frustrated.
That left a number of farmers ruing the day they did not cut over some of the bush on their easier land.
I know one who was holier than thou in supporting this in Bolger’s term & was fully on board pushing for this,.
But he had milled hundreds of acres on his property, & sure he kept some bush on the very steep hills,
In the mean time the Labour government has been activating & pushing on the Significant Natural Areas.
Then through recent legislation set up Regional Councils to apply even more costly rules, regulations etc., through requiring even more plans to be started, which became triggered post election.
Curious you are so right, “a gigantic scam” where the ones who could see the wrinkles have made a killing, beyond what many of us can figure.
A life of Riley, where overseas they can spend & enjoy life.
If they come back to NZ, just to arrange another money carbon formula, then phone is left off the hook, and/or use burner phones.
It is just another way, a form of tearing down New Zealanders, by removing money from them, stressing them, as less money around, while the government handles the ponzi $ making machine to short fall the rest of us.
I still don’t understand why pasture doesn’t get brownie points for carbon sequestration? ///////////////////////////
Racheal is right. And cows are carbon neutral. All the carbon they emit comes from their plant based diet.
Well then we’d have to hail our farmers as heroes rather then villains. Can’t be having that.
I see your sarc dashes Rachael but your question is valid. I think the answer is if grass was included we would not have an emissions issue (if you believe in that BS) and so they would not be able scam anything because there would be no need for an ETS.

It seems to fan out into other forms of trust, etc.. all to help manage the money flow, to appear to be sensible, etc.
For some of the wahines, it certainly seems a bar code to the $money taps.
havent had time to go through your links S1, are they the bunch of cnuts that purchased a station and proceded to spray the entire place with glyphosate then half the place slipped away etc before they could plant their money trees via carbon scam?
Yes Iaasb.
Check my full corrected link below to save some time.
That is only touched on as another Carbon play near the end of that doco.
It was another doco, or news play months ago
Showed up those politician connections after Cyclone Gabrielle.
Probably still collecting the Carbon Credits, on those seedling pines that were washed away too. 🙁
What is seems to me that if some one follows through the companies, particularly with the power of forensic investigation, that is to have warrants to search, override lawyers to obtain the nominees names etc., will rip open the can of worms.
To pick up the fraud, and the conflicts of interest etc..
I do not know how good the hound Sam Ufindall is, but unleash him, bed leg & with rights of search & seizure, open up their bank accounts, subpoena, to cut cut through all the dribble.. & figure all their bar codes, etc.. ! 🙂
I figure that now the whitewashing deleting will be done on some of those companies & links now that some news of this is coming out.

Communications manager Jemma Taylor discharged without conviction after sexually abusing ex’s step-daughter
Back in 2012, the woman said Taylor came into her room and sexually assaulted her.
It was the night of her stepfather’s birthday party – she had gone to bed, while four adults, including Taylor, stayed up drinking and listening to loud music.
She said Taylor laughed and taunted her during the ordeal. When she screamed for help, no one could hear as the music was too loud.
“She said ‘your dad doesn’t love you, he doesn’t care about you. He only loves me. I love you, you know you love me. You know you want me’.”

Simps did this.
Female pervert, female lawyer, female judge.
The Sisterhood looks after their own.
“A drunk man has punched and kicked a man in central Dunedin, in an unprovoked attack that police say was racially motivated.”
So was it white man bad. If it was a white man being punched and kicked is it still racially motivated?
Yes
Not according to Critical Race Theory that views racial interactions solely through the lens of power.
A member of an “oppressed race” can never be accused of racism.
//
But still likely to be targeted due to race because of perceived and/or encouraged victimhood.
Hence racially motivated.

‘Polluter Elite’: Oxfam Slams Richest 1% For Staggering Contribution To Carbon Emissions
The richest 1% of humanity produces more carbon emissions than the poorest 66% combined, according to a devastating new report from Ofxam.
Those in the top 1% include billionaires, millionaires, and those paid more than £112,500 (NZ $231,000) per year – so 77 million people in total.

Fuck Oxfam 2 facedness.
Have they vaguely woken up, thinking of food
What do those educated wooses know? 2+2 = 4 but ok with 5 if being generous to you or will short you to 3 if they are feeling “kindly”
I would think they would be serious in counting farmers in another way, like including them, by according it the gross earnings of a farm.
Little do they consider the consequences of what they push.
So many jobs gone. Just dancing & singing is it?
MSM in for some kicking? Lets see.

Te Whatu Ora/Health NZ – the centralised health system that came into effect on the 1st of July 2022 – has spent over $70 million in their 1st year to the 31 July 2022 on the Big 4. The health system is under huge pressure and Te Whatu Ora won’t disclose any deliverables or milestones associated with these contracts. It’s not just the public sector that is bloated and underperforming.

After the revolutionary He Puapua report was brought to public attention for the first time in April 2021, Judith Collins and David Seymour did their best to spark discussion about its implications — especially with regard to the threat that race-based policies pose to democratic principles.
The report — relying on a radical interpretation of the Treaty — charted a path of self-determination for iwi that culminated in a separate Maori Parliament to be put in place by the 200th anniversary of its signing in 2040.

RATING DOWNGRADES IF 3 WATERS AXED
International credit rating agency S&P says repealing the Affordable Water Reforms could result in local government downgrades.
No longer known as 3 waters it seems. Its like the housing affordable. The money lending parasites can fuck off.
We have plenty of super funds that can be invested on these things for longterm.
https://www.interest.co.nz/public-policy/125323/international-credit-rating-agency-sp-says-repealing-affordable-water-reforms
International credit agencies just prepping us for the financial kill, and they know they are safe in their enclaves.
Sure some of the Councils are run by Dorks, but at least we can find them easily, as they live amongst us.
Once it gets away from the local council, local people, then like the thread above about Carbon Zero, Carbon Credits, Maori Carbon Credits & Collectives, all those elitists will be in for the skim.
https://ysb.co.nz/have-your-say-1673/#comment-368517
It makes me even feel sorry how those Maoris were being ripped off, as we too are being ripped off by reckless accountable councils on frills, thrills high perk travels etc.. & only receiving frippery, bread & circuses too.
To invest in those councils need an audited prospectus, to bring accountability, & proper contracts before 1 penny of super funds.
To be more in the days of old where many people put money in as a form of a guaranteed bond.
So why has that been stopped.
Same as Muldoon put his nuts in a vice, having inflation proof bonds.
Probably one of those things that pushed him to the prize freeze wage freeze ways.
Always lessons to be learnt, but why is so much thrown out with the bath water & then forgotten.
Maybe not perfect, but good for the small time saver. 🙂
Simply put, get it back to is it Charles Dicken’s MacCawber’s? quote,
