    • The headline is enough for me.

      The only way she will lose the election is if the government can’t print and borrow enough pesos to pay the bennys!

      Other than that, the sheeple are starstruck and happy to keep sleepwalking their way into slavery.

      I have to go to work now, apparently along with 75% of the country, ha ha ha, pull the other one!

      I heard Jacinda Ardern had her first round of Golf yesterday- Shot a 34 on an 18 hole course including no less than 5 hole in ones!

  2. Internet meme…..

    My son is taking part in a social experiment.

    He has to wear an “I Love Jacinda” T shirt for a week, to
    see how people react.

    So far he has been spat on, punched and had a bottle thrown at him.

    I’m curious to see what happens to him when he leaves the house.

    gotta get thru this Yacinda fuck up some how.

    Winston is going to fuck Airnz properly this week.

    Sunlight as always is the besst disinfectant. Even for corona virus. so instead of being locked up you should have been at the beach.
    At the daily press briefing of the White House coronavirus task force, William Bryan, the acting undersecretary for science and technology at the Homeland Security Department, detailed recent lab studies carried out by the agency at the US Army’s biosecurity laboratory at Fort Detrick, Maryland.

    The tangata whenu’s are now having big tangis and thumbing their noses once more at the rest of us.

  5. Something new that YSBers are going to be blamed for – Food Justice

    Now that it’s increasingly clear that the food supply chains are rapidly breaking down (just one example is with the reports of mass slaughter of chickens and pigs as there are no meat processing plants open to handle them) the responsible members of society are going to find that they are to blame for another terrible evil.

    It’s not going to be enough for stoopid Cindy to blame all of her fuck-ups on:
    – Old people
    – Male people
    – White people
    – Conservative people
    – Rick pricks
    – Landlords
    – Employers
    – People who paid off their student loans
    – People with Chinky sounding names (although I must admit the CCP has me coming around to her view on that point where Beijing officials are concerned)
    – People with cars
    – People who fly (apart from James Shaw and Cindy of course)

    Now it looks like if you grow your own food, or you’ve been sensible enough to watch world developments and store away a bit of food to ensure your family can be fed in the event of our little island nation suffering food supply chain issues – you are going to be demonised too!

    The latest fad in the ever-increasing culture war is to blame the productive members of society who showed enough self-sufficiency and foresight (ie they were self-responsible citizens who didn’t feel they ought to rely on the state for everything) to plan ahead for food shortages. The new phrase we’re going to see more and more of this year is Food Justice. You can’t make this utter shit up!

    Apparently when parents are so institutionally pathetically useless than they can’t feed their children – that’s not neglect – we should understand that it is a “Food Justice” issue! This can be caused by many things – the failure of capitalism, colonialism, white supremacists – we’re going to see a new avenue for the Twitter pile-on/dob-in mob. They’re going to target food hoarders. I predict it’s going to get so bad that it will be a crime, punishable by imprisonment and the state will be permitted to seize private property if excess food is deemed to be held unjustly (ie you bought it and stored it).

    The simple unavoidable truth is the sun is waning just a fraction, it’s called a Grand Solar Minimum. The great global warming scam was made possible by a period of minute waxing by the sun. Sadly, now that is behind us and we are facing a return to longer, colder, harder winters – we’re sort of lucky down in the Southern hemisphere as we’ll experience a less sharp temperature decline than the northern hemisphere. Which sounds great at first blush, but the major agricultural producing areas are in the northern hemisphere – the fertile growing zones are going to shift south towards the equator and previously rich producer zones are not going to see long enough summers to produce the same volume of food. Grand solar minimums in the past have always seen famines – and with famines comes mass social unrest and government’s fall. The fall of every major Chinese dynasty has coincided with the start of a solar minimum period – the growth of the Roman empire ended when the Roman warm period solar maximum ended. Food is going to be scarcer for the next 30 years. Getting ready to start a blame game about food, looks like Cindy knows what’s coming and is (as is well practiced way) she is getting ready to shift the blame to the innocent for her extreme fucktardery.

    If globalists puppets like Cindy are laying the foundations for KGB-style confiscation of private property, one might well wonder why Cindy is so keen on taking away everyone’s guns? Must be purely a coincidence!

    Fascism comes to NZ, brought to us by MMP. Let’s hope I’m wrong and it doesn’t start popping up as one of those things that stoopid Cindy wants us to have a “national conversation” about after she is re-installed as President of NZ in September (or maybe even this month in the Budget).

    Remember if someone is going hungry, it’s probably because you are racist, white supremacist, misogynistic, food-hoarding, productive member of society!

  6. The finest legal mind in NZ says that the iwi Check points in conjunction with the police

    “They are not check points”!
    No one is required to stop if coming there by way of car
    No authority to stop any one at all
    People who stop are because they are agreed to
    If they have no desire to; no one is stopping the queens high way in this country at all.

    I would have issue if they were breaching the law.
    If they were a sort of vigilante posse enforcing their view of the law.
    I would be opposed to it
    My party would be opposed to it. …..
    I have made an effort to find out what it is all about.
    Authority? Rights? No

    • In 1930s Germany Hitler had an unofficial army of thugs intimidating ordinary citizens. In those days they wore brown shirts, today they were hi-viz vests.

      Other than that – I see no difference to Cindy’s enforcers. It’s all part of the plan to turn us all against each other and increase fear in the community.

      This is the Alinsky plan. This is how you set the scene for introducing a socialist totalitarian state.

    • Carrying on from Simpleton’s comment:

      ……””If a police officer is there but some random person is just pulling people over, they’re probably breaking the law and you probably could ignore it,” Wellington barrister and legal commentator Graeme Edgeler told the Herald.”…….

      We who enjoy our freedom such as it is have much to thank this legal eagle for. He’s fearless & non partisan, qualities which are in very short supply in Wellington presently.

    • Further on that I missed from Winston Peters interview.
      ———-

      “Do they have any authority?
      Have they got any rights,.. to enter on in the middle of the road to stop any vehicle
      No they haven’t.
      They are on the side of the road and if people wish to stop and to observe their presence they can
      If they do’nt wish to they do not have to,.”
      —————-
      So what should one do if they are in the middle of the road?
      What do you do if they are in your lane?
      Even if the police are there, it sounds like you do not have to stop. 🙂

      Drive on, drive on.

    • See there’s the thing. Easy to say you don’t have to stop, eh?
      What if they have put obstacles in the road? Do you just gun it through? Who pays for the damage to your vehicle?
      What if a person is standing in your way? Should you slow down? Do you swerve to avoid them? Do you get points for hitting them?
      If you run over a person who is breaking the law, does that make it not against the law?

      Let’s stop pretending that these ‘checkpoints’ aren’t a bunch of maori separatists taking the opportunity to wear masks and bully people and call it what it is, instead of pretending there’s nothing to see here when there bloody well is a whole heap of reverse fascism going on aided and abetted by the eunuchs in the police.

  7. New evidence released Thursday shows that the FBI, closed its criminal counterintelligence investigation of General Mike Flynn on January 4, 2017, after finding no evidence of any criminal activity between him and the Russians. The investigation was reopened at the behest of Peter Strzok.

    There was no legal or factual basis to interview Flynn. Text messages between Strzok and Lisa Page show Strzok re writing the notes of the Flynn interview….game over.

    You might think I am a bit obsessed with this case….I probably am. The general is the spitting image in looks and bearing to my grandfather in his younger days…

    He told Saudi: Cut oil supply or lose U.S. military support,
    “The threat to upend a 75-year strategic alliance, which has not been previously reported, was central to the U.S. pressure campaign that led to a landmark global deal to slash oil supply as demand collapsed in the coronavirus pandemic – scoring a diplomatic victory for the White House.”

  11. Now that Andrew Coster has given patched gangmembers the power to pull over vehicles and demand occupant details do you think they are easily going to give that power up?
    This will end very badly- I strongly suspect some innocent member of the public will soon be attacked if they fail to comply. (If this hasn’t already happened)
    Coster should resign in disgrace..

          We’re getting soo much value for money with our choice of Jacinderella as Prime Minister. As well as a world class kindness fairy, we get Jethro’s immigration advice, Daddy’s policing expertise, a Christmas card list of ex-pats who can phone and text with free advice on pandemic management and a raft of other issues.

          And the real bonus is that we don’t even have to bother our pretty heads with any of it all, we just get to trust our beloved Prime Minister to make Captain’s Calls in our interest and sit back and pay the bills.

          What mystifies me is why we’re still paying a full complement of public servants and advisors we clearly don’t need.

Such is the influence of media. They are all individuals influenced by ‘Feelz’ and not economic realities. Unfortunately they are also voters, and as such have an influence on the election. If they think Jacinda is can do no wrong, this will be reflected in September.
        As there are apparently more female than male voters, the result may already be a foregone conclusion.

  17. Increase in winter energy payment a relief for pensioners
    https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/money/2020/05/increase-in-winter-energy-payment-a-relief-for-pensioners.html

    More than one million Kiwis on lower incomes will be eligible to receive the emergency payment, which will last 22 weeks from May 1 to October 1.

    Couples and people with dependent children will now get $63.64 a week while those living alone will get $40.91.

    Although the payment has been welcomed by many who desperately need the help, there have been complaints in the past that wealthy over-65s are also getting the money.

    A campaign has also been set up to allow those more well-off to donate their energy payments, or even their full superannuation payment, to those in a tougher economic situation.

  18. A woman was thinking about finding a pet to help keep her company at home. She decided she would like to find a beautiful parrot; it wouldn’t be as much work as say a dog, and it would be fun to hear it speak.
    She went to a pet shop and immediately spotted a large beautiful parrot. She went to the owner of the store and asked how much. The owner said it was £50.
    Delighted that such a rare looking and beautiful bird wasn’t more expensive, she agreed to buy it. The owner looked at her and said, “Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a brothel. Sometimes it says pretty vulgar stuff.”
    The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird. She said she would buy it anyway. The petshop owner sold her the bird and she took it home. She hung the bird’s cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something. The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said, “New house, new madam, nice tits!”
    The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought, that’s not so bad, actually it’s a bit flattering.
    A couple hours later, the woman’s two teenage daughters returned from school. When they inspected the bird, it looked at them and said, “New house, new madam, new tarts, nice arses!”
    The girls and the woman were a bit offended at first, but then they all began to laugh about the situation.
    A couple of hours later, the woman’s husband came home from work. The bird looked at him and said, “Fcuk me Keith; long time no see?”.

    “It’s not free money because when the Reserve Bank buys those government bonds we have to fund those,” he said.

    “We’re an investor like anyone else so we expect to be paid back when they mature.”

    Mr Hawkesby added: “We’re creating electronic money to buy government bonds.

    “Through this process we create money. Not physical cash but electronic money.”

        If Nick Smith did what I deride him for, it is no different to what the right does to Simon in blogs.

        We should all be behind him to get the ‘right’ over the line, in public at any rate and vote for Act if you want, who needs enemies with friends like right wing blogs.

        Act is nothing if the Nats don’t win. One way or another some of you are supporting Jacinda by putting shit on the chosen leader of the National Party, the poisoned chalice that it is.

    The Minister of Finance and Minister of Revenue say the Small Business Cashflow Loan Scheme will provide assistance of up to $100,000 to firms employing 50 or fewer full-time equivalent employees.

    The loans will only be interest-free if they are paid back within a year, Grant Robertson said.

    “It has become clear that the support that is available to our small and medium businesses from banks is not meeting their needs nor our expectations as a Government. That is why we have moved to provide this scheme to give some much needed cashflow.”

    “The scheme will provide $10,000 to every firm and in addition $1800 per equivalent full time employee,” he said.

Specifically, Clapper has let down the team of intelligence operatives whom he is supposed to lead. His recent misinformation campaign about the Muslim Brotherhood proves his allegiance to the elected running the United States. Regrettably, it also proves his inability to uphold part of his oath in protecting us from all enemies foreign and domestic.

For real ignorance we have to live in present times where Big Pharma invents ever more expensive drugs & their religio/conservative mates in government protect them from being challenged by a plant.

        It may be of interest to readers that the vast majority of patent medicine available in NZ & the States in the late 19th century & early 20th century was based on cannabis. It wasn’t until, at the behest of the meddlesome League of Nations, that cannabis was made illegal in NZ in 1927.

        “Finally, further confirmation of this hypothesis is the data collected in the register of the SIR (Italian rheumatology society). To assess the possible correlations between chronic patients and Covid19, SIR interrogated 1,200 rheumatologists throughout Italy to collect statistics on infections. Out of an audience of 65,000 chronic patients (Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis), who systematically take Plaquenil / hydroxychloroquine, only 20 patients tested positive for the virus. Nobody died, nobody is in intensive care, according to the data collected so far.”

  37. A young priest is on his way to his new parish for the first time.

    As he approaches the town he sees a man in a field shagging a sheep. A few miles down the road he saw another man out in the fields frenziedly bonking a sheep. Appalled at having witnessed a second case of bestiality in less than an hour, he whispered several prayers, crosses himself fervently, and drove on. Finally, on the outskirts of town, he caught sight of a man leaning against a tree and masturbating enthusiastically.

    The young priest, then and there decided grimly on the topic of his first sermon. “As I approached this fair town,” he began that Sunday, “I witnessed three abominations. First, on the roadside a man committing an unnatural act with a sheep. Shortly thereafter was another man in a field committing the same unnatural act with another sheep! And third, at the very outskirts of this town, a man was committing an unnatural act with himself!”

    A voice spoke up from somewhere in the congregation, “Aye, that’ll be old Paddy Fitzpatrick. He never could catch a sheep!”

  43. A bit of a yarn…..
    When I refused to stop for the local iwi road blockers, I was expecting a home visit from their
    kaiwhakahaere, a bloke full of his own self importance, (as you would expect) and one with a
    reputation for always getting the last word in.

    (There was reference to an Italian doctor in HYS, who had converted a dive mask into some medical breathing device and I mentioned that I had one and that I nearly drowned the first time I used it. It covers the entire face down to the chin and has a built in snorkel.)

    In anticipation of said visit, I kept the mask handy with the intention of donning it at first sight of the bighead’s arrival. Understanding any form of speech from beneath the mask was going to be nigh-on-impossible. I was not going to remove it nor let him any closer than the 2m social distancing rule.

    I had even practised bs hand signals to confound him further. The only problem I could foresee with my plan, was whether I could carry it out without pissing myself with laughter. Alas, and with much disappointment, that visit was never made.

    Since then, my neighbour had told me that she was stopped by the Police during the lockdown and breath tested. I was surprised as I thought they had announced that they wouldn’t be doing that. She was not too impressed with how close the cop came to her during the procedure. Not letting a good plan go to waste, I now keep the dive mask on the front seat of the car.

    I don’t drink and drive, but during these times, if I am to approach a drink drive check point, I will be wearing the dive mask, and if stopped, testing the metal of some young townie cop to carry out his removal instruction of my Personal Wuhan Flu Protection Apparatus (PWFPA). Just because I’m a cranky old bugger.

    • Battle Hymn of the New Socialist Party
      (Leon Rosselson)

      The cloth cap and the working class, as images are dated.
      For we are Labour’s avante-garde, and we were educated.
      By tax adjustments we have planned to institute the Promised Land
      And just to show we’re still sincere, we sing The Red Flag once a year.

      Firm principles and policies are open to objections;
      And a streamlined party image is the way to win elections.
      So raise the umbrella high, the bowler hat, the college tie
      We’ll stand united, raise a cheer. And sing The Red Flag once a year.

      It’s one step forward, one step back. Our dance is devilish daring
      A leftward shuffle, a rightward tack, then pause to take our bearings.
      We’ll reform the country bit by bit, so nobody will notice it
      Then ever after, never fear, we’ll sing The Red Flag once a year.

      We will not cease from mental fight till every wrong is righted,
      And all men are equal quite, and all our leaders knighted.
      For we are sure if we persist to make the New Year’s Honours list.
      Then every loyal labour peer will sing The Red Flag once a Year.

      So vote for us, and not for them, we’re just as true to NATO,
      And we’ll be calm and British when we steer the ship of state-O.
      We’ll stand as firm as them *
      To show we’re patriotic gentlemen *
      Though man to man shall brothers be, deterence is our policy.
      So raise the mushroom cloud on high, within their shades we’ll live and die.
      Though cowards flinch and traitors sneer, we’ll sing The Red Flag once a year.

      * these two lines sung to tune of “send her victorious, happy and
      glorious” from God Save the King.

  49. Iran Is Hauling Gold Bars Out of Venezuela’s Almost-Empty Vaults

    Out of cash and desperate for help in propping up its oil industry, Venezuela is raiding its gold vaults and handing tons of bars to its long-time ally Iran, according to people with direct knowledge of the matter.

    Government officials piled some 9 tons of gold — an amount equal to about $500 million — on Tehran-bound jets this month as payment for Iran’s assistance in reviving Venezuela’s crippled gasoline refineries, the people said. The shipments, which resulted in a sudden drop in Venezuela’s published foreign reserve figures, leave the crisis-ravaged country with just $6.3 billion in hard-currency assets, the lowest amount in three decades.
