Former Green MP doesn’t see a problem with illegal roadblocks – thinks criticising them is racist “it’s their land after all”
Well colour me surprised, who’d have thunk the Greens would support violent thugs threatening ordinary, decent people going about their lawful business!
Because that is what POS nobody Catherine DelaHunty is shouting about on Twatter. What the hell is the matter with these idiots from the Greens, it’s like there is an absolutely bottomless pit of hypocrisy where they dredge these oxygen thieves up from.
And Catherine you dumb as fuck ne’er do well, the roads do not belong to gang members – that’s a flat-out lie. At best there is a dubious legal loophole that might allow for some NZ citizens to make a (unlikely to be successful) “claim” of ownership of the land roads are built on– but that is about it. I know mouth breathers like you have trouble discerning fact from fiction – but the state highways are “owned” by the NZTA as a public service to all NZers (yes, even worthless ones like you). Public local roads are the province of local authorities – again in regard to providing a public service to all NZers.
Why are people on the left such compulsive liars? It’s almost as if they have to make shit up to try to create substance for their delusional state of mind!
Damn! Another inconvenient Climate Alarmism truth!
I guess I see now why the fear-mongering global elites/NWO have been so keen to help CCP with their bio-weapon. The most effective Chicken Little strategy (Global Warming) since the Cold War is beginning to collapse under the effects of the Grand Solar Minimum.
While Mayor (wet girls’) Blouse has been pumping up the volume about faux Covid death numbers, New York has just experienced an April where the temperature NEVER got above 70F (yeah I know in NZ terms 21C is respectable – but this is incredibly unusual in the urban heat sink of NYC). This cooling state of affairs hasn’t happened very often in the past, the last time being 1940.
It’s such an incredible state of affairs it is surprising the media aren’t covering it!
It is just so inconvenient when facts keep on failing to support the fear-mongering “science”. But hey! We must trust the experts – they wouldn’t lie to us – even when facts prove them wrong. Ve Must Believe der Experts – fur der gut of das Reich!
But wait, there’s more – coldest ever start to May in Australia!)
The hits keep on coming – good job we’ve got “PANDEMICS” the next thing we all have to be afraid of to allow the liars to pretend they never tried to get us to go back to the Stone Age because of their fake Global Warming scam!
COLDEST MAY EVER (well since records began – but I’m just using the same technique politicians, Greta and the media use – if they can, I guess I should too)
A fearful population is a controllable population. What could be a new existential threat that governments could use to get people to go along with their plans for a new Utopia?
They were smart, they relabelled it “climate change”. Now,no matter if is colder or hotter they will find some data to support it and claim we are killing the planet unless we pay $50,000,000,000 right now.
The formula seems to be:
There is an existential threat of _____(insert name of threat)______. If we do __(action to prevent “threat”)_____ then the threat will go away. To do this, you need to __(stop doing something/start doing something/pay a new tax)____.
The existential threat always has to be framed as something we are doing directly, even if in fact it is being done by a completely different populatin on the other side of the world. For example, over-population or stripping of tropical rainforest.
And that O-sama (oh I never noticed that coincidence before) is exactly the recipe for governing in the Western world!
When you see it – it’s painfully obvious. So obvious in fact, that it is very reminiscent of something Josef Goebels said “If you tell a lie that is so preposterous, then no one would believe you’d have the audacity to try it on”.
Clearly, you can’t be too audacious in your lies so long as you have big business behind you and the media running interference.
As I discussed about “global overpopulation” the other day, since the birthrates in the populations of the West and Far East are already well below replacement level, there is logically no need to do anything in these regions. The “problem” will solve itself.
Logically, Mr. Gates would want to direct his “population controlling” actions in the parts of the world where the birthrate exceeds 2.1 children per woman.
Just a question on why there was no updates and numbers on the Coronavirus yesterday, is it because they are getting caught out on to many lies or has Jacinda and her motley crew decided they have beaten it and there is no need to keep the public informed.
Why do you expect any updates. We have eliminated the Chinese virus according to Cindy. She wouldn’t lie about this would she?//
Now now Ed…”Chinese Virus”…. you race-baiter you…call it by its proper World Health Organisation designated name please….Covid-1984.
“What is a virus?
Quoting the National Institute of Health: “A virus is an infectious agent that occupies a place near the boundary between the living and the nonliving. It is a particle much smaller than a bacterial cell, consisting of a small genome of either DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat. Viruses enter host cells and hijack the enzymes and materials of the host cells to make more copies of themselves. Viruses cause a wide variety of diseases in plants and animals, including AIDS, measles, smallpox, and polio”, and of course the various strains of coronavirus, including SARS-CoV-2[1] .
They can enter the body through the nose, mouth or breaks in the skin. Different viruses infect different types of cells based upon the ability of the virus to both recognize the host cell type and successfully enter the cells. Once inside (infection), virus genome is activated to produce the replication proteins necessary to create new virus particles, and the cycle is repeated. For example, cold and flu viruses will attack cells that line the respiratory or digestive tracts. Norovirus, for example, invades the gastro-intestinal tract. The cells of the lungs and bronchi are targets for SARS-CoV-2.
Viruses can stay active on surfaces for different amounts of time, depending on the virus, the surface type, and the environment. Cold viruses can remain active on surfaces for up to a week, while flu viruses can survive for about 24 hours, and the SARS-CoV-2 virus remains active for about 72 hours. It’s during this time that the virus is quietly adherent to surfaces, waiting to be taken up by a passing host, that restorers have their opportunity to intervene.”
This is a part of a very long article in an industry Magazine.
The use of ozone technology is a well known virus detroyer. Ozone is that funny smell you get when its rained and out comes the sun. Its a very pwerful killer of bacteria and viruses.
Our problen is that we had had so little rain during the summer.
“As we’ve already discussed, viruses are not living organisms in the traditional sense – they are not made of cells, they cannot reproduce without invading a host cell, they do not respond to environmental stimuli, and they have no metabolism. Because a virus is not “alive” in the first place, it therefore cannot be “killed”. References to killed virus in the medical literature refer to a technique where virus are chemically or mechanically inactivated so that they can be used in the production of vaccines or used in research without the possibility of causing infection, or in our case, to disinfect a surface or space. It is in this sense that we are using the term “inactivating”, where we are using ozone to chemically treat a virus so that it cannot infect living cells.
How does ozone inactivate viruses?
To address this question, I reached out to some of the most knowledgeable doctors on the topic of ozone and viruses in the country. Dr. Gérard Sunnen is a medical doctor in New York City, specializing in the uses of ozone in the medical field, ranging from cutting-edge ozone therapy to the use of ozone as a disinfectant. According to Dr. Sunnen. “Ozone has unique disinfectant properties. As a gas, it has a penetration capacity that liquids do not possess. In view of the fact that , SARS-CoV-2, MERS, and previous SARS strains persist on fomites (surfaces) for up to several days, it is suggested that ozone technology be applied to the decontamination of medical and other environments”.
Knowing that something works isn’t enough; let’s look at how ozone works at inactivating viruses. “Typically, viruses are small, independent particles, built of crystals and macromolecules. Unlike bacteria, they multiply only within the host cell. Ozone destroys viruses by diffusing through the protein coat into the nucleic acid core, resulting in damage of the viral RNA. At higher concentrations, ozone destroys the capsid or exterior protein shell by oxidation” explains Dr. Sunnen. Further, “most research efforts on ozone’s virucidal effects have centered upon ozone’s propensity to break apart lipid molecules at sites of multiple bond configuration. Indeed, once the lipid envelope of the virus is fragmented, its DNA or RNA core cannot survive”.
To Summarize
Ozone, having been proven in the lab and in the field to be an extremely effective virucide and full-spectrum antimicrobial, killing pathogenic bacteria and fungi, offers many benefits over alternative ways of disinfecting.
Because it is a gas, it has a penetration capacity that liquids do not possess. ”
theres much more tech stuff so this is just by way of passing on what the renovation Industry knows about these things.
That was interesting. Thanks Viking.
I’m glad #commsgirl has eliminated the wuflu. Good on her. She’s done it, and received her international recognition. SO WHY AM I STILL IN BLOODY LOCKDOWN?
There was an update. 6 more deaths of those with other health problems. However, Cindy did not front as she did not want to explain about lying about the flu vaccines.
6 more cases Chuck? You had me looking at the news there for a minute!
My bad.
I notice Political editor on Newshub has a article on Stuff disputing what many say of her.
“Political Muckraker” Tova O’Brien : ‘
Take a Step Back before you have a go.’
Tova O’Brien can’t understand why she trolled for holding the Government to account.
https://i.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/300000983/political-muckraker-tova-obrien-take-a-step-back-before-you-have-a-go
But a few minutes after bidding farewell after he interview O’Brien texts she though of a enduring memory “Jamie Lee Ross ” and the phenomenal Press Conference, that was the biggest that I have ever experienced Politically and most memorable moment.
A little girl was leaning into a lion’s cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her
by the collar of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter
her, all under the eyes of her screaming parents.
A biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose
with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain, the lion jumps back,
letting go of the girl, and the biker brings the girl to her terrified
parents, who thank him endlessly.
A BBC reporter, Laura Kuenssberg, has watched the whole event.
Laura, addressing the Harley rider says, “Sir, this was the most gallant and bravest thing I’ve seen a man do in my whole life.”
The Harley rider replies, “Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind
bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt right.”
Kuenssberg “Well, I’ll make sure this won’t go unnoticed. I’m a BBC
journalist, you know, and tomorrow’s news will run this story. So, what
do you do for a living, and what political affiliation do you have?”
The biker replies “I’m a British Army veteran, a Conservative and I voted for Brexit”. The journalist leaves.
The following morning the biker turns on BBC News to see if it indeed brings news of his actions.
BBC Headline: RIGHT WING UK VETERAN ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT & STEALS HIS LUNCH.
And THAT pretty much sums up the BBC’s approach to the news these days.
I posted this late yesterday but for those who missed it is worth a read.
Covid 19 coronavirus: Paul Glass: We need more urgency from Government to save economy
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=12329006
Nonsense. Ardern is doing a splendid job and her plan is clearing working.
The purpose of these draconian measures was to stop the spread of free market capitalism and place the economy is the hands of central government.
It’s clearly worked just fine.
So Ardern has been caught telling porkies (Again!) re the Flu Vaccines!
Expect a Baby Neve story any minute- Or perhaps some new ‘Amazeballs’ earrings…
She may even roll out Jethro, if the noise gets too big!
This is a great story. Ardern’s Venezuela comrade sent a navy ship to hijack a cruise boat.
The failed socialist states navy boat rammed the cruise boat. The navy boat sunk. The passenger ship was fine. It is reinforced for the arctic.
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/world/2020/04/venezuelan-navy-boat-sinks-after-repeatedly-ramming-cruise-ship.html
The navy skipper obviously favoured his odds from sinking over boarding a cruise ship.
With 32 aboard obviously a major attack being planned.
I think the Venezuelleans wrongly assumed the cruise ship was crewed by Italians…..turned out it was skippered and crewed by Ukrainians.
The Venezuela crew wanted to defect, but where too keen to jump ship!

The North Korean leader cut a ribbon at a ceremony at the plant, in a region north of Pyongyang, and people who were attending the event “burst into thunderous cheers of ‘hurrah!’ for the Supreme Leader who is commanding the all-people general march for accomplishing the great cause of prosperity”, KCNA says.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-52508437
I’m pretty certain KCNA writes for the NZ media.
Do children spontaneously burst into song when Kim Jong walks into the room?
Did Whales mystically appear in the Harbour to celebrate when Kim Jong’s children were born?
I think the North Korean Media is fairly moderate compared to what we have to put up with….
Exactly. Some don’t see it because its normalized here.

Also within the Bloomberg link inside, which is less emotionally descriptive of course, is a story on Fauci being blocked by the Whitehouse from testifying to congress on the US response to the pandemic;
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-05-01/white-house-blocks-fauci-from-testifying-to-congressional-panel
The plot thickens, or twists?
Never really read Bloomberg before. A quick scan suggests it doesn’t tell the reader what to think/feel and there were no headlines spreading misinformation about Trump.
Will read some more.
Yeah well…. you’ll have to pay for it. Most of their content is behind a paywall and they give out teasers every now and then to get subscriptions.
Bloomberg owned by Billionaire Democrat Michael Bloomberg who spent $Millions on a failed attemto to be the DemonRats presidential candidate, so expect unbiased reports just like the Brussels Broadcaasting Corruption.
Hubby has left early this morning to beat the bread lines. He is standing in the Countdown carpark in the rain awaiting his approved access to buy food. Comrades the revolution has arrived, we are now lining up for food which no better than those poor wretches in Venezuela. The comrades have succeeded with their ‘new world’ without protest or a barely a whimper of complaint.
If you complain you get attacked by the Media and death threats from Labour supporters….(Ask Simon Bridges)
Just embrace the glorious Socialism Waikatogirl!
*Oh and weren’t Jacinda’s earrings just fabulous??
The difference is – Kiwis don’t think these abuses by the totalitarian State go far enough!
Certain kinds of people prefer a totalitarian state.
– They fear uncertainty.
(As the Soviet said to the American: “In Soviet Union, the past is uncertain but the future is known.”)
The riddle of life is the riddle of uncertainty.

That reminds me of yesterday. I went to the local Countdown. Walking up the fruit and veg isles, was approached by a weirdo fully garbed in face mask and gloves, saying “I should have gloves on. (I didn’t have any).
I looked at him and said “I suppose you vote labour”
He said “What’s that got to do with anything?”
I replied “you fuckers just love telling us what to do”
Left him like a stunned mullet and walked off.
Come Sept 20NZ will discover if the 5+ weeks free sample communism is to be extended and expanded.
The difference between us and Venezuela (for now) is that there is still food on the shelf for us to line up for.

Boris Johnson’s son named after doctors who ‘saved’ UK Prime Minister’s life
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/world/2020/05/boris-johnson-s-son-named-after-doctors-who-saved-uk-prime-minister-s-life.html
Symonds, 32, said Wilfred, who was born on Wednesday (local time), was named after Johnson’s grandfather, while Lawrie came from her grandfather.
The choice of Nicholas, Symonds said, was a nod to Nick Price and Nick Hart – two doctors who the couple have praised for saving Johnson’s life at St Thomas’ hospital last month.
Middle name, Jenny.

Newsweek reveals that as recently as last year, the US funded scientists at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in ‘gain of function’ research on bat coronaviruses.
The source of that funding? The National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease, headed by…..(drumroll please)….Dr Anthony Fauci, lead medical expert for America’s Covid-19 task force.
Skip the daily update of figures and start at minute 5:00

I think its accepted they were researching bat viruses. As well as other things. It’s what researchers do.
It doesn’t prove that Covid-19 was released from the facility.
I bet there would be a different spin if this outbreak started in Israel near one of their research facilities. Most of the people on YSB would be gibbering about “anti semitism” even if they were as guilty as sin. Because – muh holocaust.
I’d be as pissed off with Israel as I am about China if this virus has escaped from a virus lab in Israel as those Horseshoe bats live 900km away from Wuhan so it is not a coincidence the labs were “importing” bats for research in Wuhan. Shame the Chinese eat everything going. I’m guessing the people of Israel are a little more discerning in their food choices and don’t eat research scraps. //
I have long suspected that the source into the wet market was the illicit sale of animals experimented on in the lab by staff out to make a few extra Yuan.
I see neither the Herald or Stuff made a mention of Cindy lying about the supply of flu vaccines.
More than their jobs are worth Chuck….
And unlikely to risk their share of %50 Million.
Emailed SLG on 22April about her flu vax statements, but got a reply back saying:

Notoriously slow road projects may move to fast lane under new Covid-19 economic plan
Large-scale projects will soon be able to start sooner in New Zealand thanks to a change by the Government designed to help combat the stalling of the nation’s economy due to Covid-19.
https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-zealand/notoriously-slow-road-projects-may-move-fast-lane-under-new-covid-19-economic-plan
Environment Minister David Parker said the sorts of projects that would benefit from quicker consenting included roading, walking and cycling, rail, housing, sediment removal from silted rivers and estuaries, new wetland construction, flood management works, and projects to prevent landfill erosion.
“We are acting quickly to get the economy moving again and our people working. Part two of the RMA will still be applied. Projects are being advanced in time, but environmental safeguards remain,” Mr Parker said.
“We went hard and early to beat the virus and now we’re doing the same to get the economy moving too.
“The success of our health response gives us a head start on the world to get our economy moving again and this fast-tracking process will allow our economic recovery to accelerate.”
The changes were approved by Cabinet last week and new legislation is expected to be passed in June.
“Environment Minister David Parker said the sorts of projects that would benefit from quicker consenting included roading, walking and cycling, rail, housing, sediment removal from silted rivers and estuaries, new wetland construction, flood management works, and projects to prevent landfill erosion.”
Hmmm, what colour uniform will the comrades be wearing on the chain gang?
Bright RED.
“We went hard and early to beat the virus”….
No ya didnt ya lying cunt. Fish and Chip girl pissed around hoping to have her day of glory on March 15.
Meanwhile, overseas arrivals kept piling into the country. Stop telling lies you bug eyed prick.
Excellent, can they hurry up with the last stage of the Waikato expressway so we can bypass Hamilton. Thanks to lockdown, I haven’t yet done the Huntly bypass section yet, but looking forward to that. Its going to be great when this is all done.
Parker’s RMA call ( and apparently Judith Collins as well) fatal flaw is that this will only address major projects
It is the small and medium businesses entrepreneurs and individuals that are been worst affected by by the RMA and the growth of not always associated regulations
They add up to the majority of business
There is no relief for those most affected .
Another lost opportunity for business in NZ.
Hello, I’m from the government and here to help… //
The tourist industry is going to take the biggest hit. How many who lose their jobs in that industry will be qualified or able to get jobs on these projects? I cannot see those who have worked in hotels, on airlines, in hospitality (bars & restaurants) etc. being able to get the jobs. There will be hundreds of guys & gals finishing up on the Transmission Gully project early next year who will walk into the roading projects.
Good the projects are going ahead but it will not put much of a dent in the unemployment data.
The socialist left believe workers can do any job, we are all interchangable. They fail to understand the human factor, we are not all the same, we do not all think the same, have the same physical abilities. We are not all suitable and cannot be trained to do whatever job is deemed necessary for us to do.

Coronavirus hype biggest political hoax in history
The response to the coronavirus is hyped. And in time, this hype will be revealed as politically hoaxed.
In fact, COVID-19 will go down as one of the political world’s biggest, most shamefully overblown, overhyped, overly and irrationally inflated and outright deceptively flawed responses to a health matter in American history, one that was carried largely on the lips of medical professionals who have no business running a national economy or government.
The facts are this: COVID-19 is a real disease that sickens some, proves fatal to others, mostly the elderly — and does nothing to the vast majority.
That’s it.
That, in a nutshell, is it.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/apr/28/coronavirus-hype-biggest-political-hoax-in-history/
Hoaxes all have a purpose.
How would a government use the disruptions caused by the Covid-19 Lockdown to their advantage?
– To prepare the public for a forecoming shock (eg. unavoidable recession or depression)?
– To encourage the concept of work-from-home
Or did the politicians blindly copy the actions of each other (NZ does whatever Australia or the UK do) because they have not a clue of what to do?

They need local contractors to build them…..I know of one being built in the HB for a German billionaire because I know someone involved in the panic room installation
You would have to use North Korean tactics to keep the existance of a “bunker” unknown to the local population.
Bring in your own contractors and building supplies. Ensure that none of the contactors could ever tell anyone about the project. Ensure that the local government not know about the project. All secret.

Rule No. 1: Don’t raise their curiosity.
Look to the past. If the POWS at Colditz can build all those tunnels under Nazi eyes during war time, what’s the problem with building a bunker?
No ingenuity these days that’s why.
In the Colditz case, the planning, construction materials, labor and execution were all kept out of the sight of the authorities and local population.
It’s not so easy with a bunker in New Zealand.
Especially when you order in 40 trucks of concrete…
It’s amazing what can be accomplished during wartime. During WW2 the Reserve Bank built a vault out in the open on a road leading up the hill behind the developing Hutt suburb of Naenae.

I always wondered how they built the Thunderbirds base on Tracey Island without anyone knowing. Brains would sort things out in no time.
The meth smugglers who tried clandestine launchings of a massive fizz boat to retrieve their “imports” a few years back didn’t fare too well either.
Just ask the Mexi’s. they are good at this stuff. From Mexico to the Usa via tunnels.
Them frenchies that blew up the Rainbow Worrier didn’t do too well either. That was before dial 105 dob in a crim line!
Looks like the people who have these bunkers built, are scared of something.
My guess is……it’s the people they’ve made fortunes off i.e. taxpayers.
BN in the case of the German one I mentioned…he’s already been kidnapped and a ransom paid.
Can someone kidnap the fat crim and refuse to pay the ransom!
Every so often, just occasionally, the Herald forgets its role as publicity agent & panderer to the Labour Party. In David Fisher’s article about the cancellation of the daily Covid-19 briefings in favour of weekend press releases he notes:
……”Over the time of the briefings, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was a regular co-presenter, with Finance Minister Grant Robertson filling in on occasions. Less regularly seen was Minister of Health David Clark, who spent the lockdown at his homes in Dunedin when not at a local beach or mountain bike track.”…….

I recently joined a dating website and was astounded by the amount of women looking for ‘A Knight In Shining Armour.’
Given that the last known knights to wear ‘shining armour’ were back in the Franco-Prussian war of 1870, I think it highly unlikely that their expectations will be met.
Were they to put ‘looking for a bald, chinless wanker in a waxed jacket’ they would have a far greater chance of success

There It Is: CDC Equates Coronavirus Hospitalizations to Seasonal Flu and Finally Admits It’s MUCH LESS Dangerous for Children
In late February, nearly a month after Presient Trump banned travel from China to the United States in January, the CDC terrorized Americans by claiming the Wuhan coronavirus had a mortality rate of 2.3% at its epicenter.
Two weeks later WHO leader, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, sparked a global panic when he claimed the COVID-19 had a 3.4% mortality rate and then compared that number to the annual estimated seasonal flu mortality rate of 0.1%.
These irresponsible and completely inaccurate statements led to the greatest economic crash since the Great Depression.

Too little too late though isn’t it? The damage is done.
My biggest concern now is that they haven’t quite finished the job on us, so what’s next? As it stands, a free economy can still haul us out of this, albeit slowly and painfully.
Or, is it all just to advance the microchipping of the slaves?

The Ministry of Health’s review into aged care facilities during the Covid-19 outbreak is underway, but the E tū workers union says relevant staff are being excluded from the processes.
https://www.tvnz.co.nz/content/tvnz/onenews/story/2020/05/02/aged-care-workers-not-being-included-in-ministry-of-health-revie.html
“The review needs workers like us properly involved so we can explain these experiences and work with others on the solutions. We’re the experts,” Southland aged care worker Aroha Carney says.
“This is basically just another form of self-regulation which has proven to not work across industries which will only produce what the providers and DHBs allow it to.
I wouldn’t ever consult a member of this disgusting E tū outfit on ANYTHING, frankly.
The unions are self-promoting as they always do when they see an opportunity. Union management must be so disappointed in the CoL not implementing the proposed industrial union plan they promoted during the last election.
I wish Aroha Carney well in her futile request to get the aged care workers’ viewpoints heard but she’s farting against thunder.
The truth about non existent or low stocks of PPE would expose the PM as the liar she is.
NEVER FORGET WHAT THE INTERNATIONAL MSM DID WITH Y2K.
Y2K was a major fail as it had an end date expiring at 12.01am on 2000 when it proved that NOTHING had occurred.

Yesterday I had a rant about Bridges and his podcast. I asked whether this was a new move or not. Viking came on last night saying they have been on FBook for sometime. That’s good but not everyone does FB. Because of emails I have sent to MPs etc. over time I’m on the National email address database (I get the begging for donations emails).
So why can’t they just send out the podcast linked to an email or a link to where the podcast can be found?

Sen. Blackburn: ‘Joe Biden needs to come forward and just tell the truth’
That old but wise saying, “when you point a finger you have four pointing back at you.”
Whoever says that has never tried it – unless of course they are pointing with their thumb.
Just saying.
My reply from David Fisher
“Hi Chuck,
What’s the reference to “comrade”? I’m not sure I understand.
I did see that TVNZ story. Your suggestion is interesting – do you think every media outlet needs to replicate every story done by every other media outlet? Or just some? And if only some, how would you choose which to replicate? And if it came at the cost of not doing new journalism, would it be worth it?
David”
Woke up at some late hour and briefly tuned in to talkback.
There was a lady in her eighties that calmly explained how during this lockdown she was staying away from her home but some fuckin lowlifes broke in to her home and totally trashed her house.Everything was tipped over tipped out and left a total mess.She said they took her cats ashes and things that she had had for years.
She could not understand the mentality of the people who did it.
She was in Christchurch. Shit did I feel for that poor old lady.
Oh and that call was followed by OJ, the guy everyone loves to hate.He said if he had heard Genter yesterday and if he had a chance he would shove something in her gob and shut her up. The host didnt like that.
A person who would take the ashes of a pet would have to be just careless and unknowing, or a complete sociopath.
Mind you, what kind of person breaks into a pensioner’s home in the first place?
“What kind of person breaks into a pensioner’s home?..”
Labour voters.
They consider it ‘Redistributing the wealth’
Average old folks home has bugger all worth anything in it worth pinching. No mobile phones, computor, phillips k9 tv.
Showing your age there sooty. Philips K9 tv’s were all the rage in the early 70’s.
I doubt your average leftie burglar would know what they are. Museum piece maybe?

One of Andrew Little’s friends.
” Everything was tipped over tipped out and left a total mess”
O..sen….searching for the money stash.
A guy catches a burglar in his house tipping every thing about the room.
He says to him, “what are you looking for?”
Burglar, “your money”
He says, “here, I’ll give you a hand”.
While this need to be done over a decade ago I am not in favour of it now especially five months out from a Election Y out watch the Greens NZ First and Maori roll over without a wimp and just allow Labour to make this law.

While I am not a fan of the RMA it there for reason not to just pass Laws because you are the Government and need a policy that will win you a second term.
Have you not heard
It’s different when the left do it
There may be a silver lining to that cloud. Once the RMA has been put aside this time for “the greater good” its integrity has been downgraded.
We may get a chance to smash the wretched Nimby enabling legislation once & for all.
Just doing what National had already done for RNS projects, so don’t get your hopes up.
Remember the Nats have promised to fix their original fuck up many times.
Still waiting on he Lazy Pricks.
Is Nick Smith still a Nat MP?
Should have sent him off the other day.
When the RMA was enacted in 1991 it was a necessary piece of legislation. Basically all it did was prevent a landowner or their agent from exporting a problem across their boundary. For example prior to 1991 there wasn’t much to stop you from dozing tracks or pads anywhere on your property & bugger the effects on the next door neighbour or river users.
But it was poorly written & immediately hijacked by Nimbys & business rivals to stop progress or make it so expensive as not to be worth while. Worse still it embedded yet another layer of bureaucracy into a system already collapsing under its own weight.
The legislation doesn’t require amendment. It needs to be set on fire & replaced by something workable.
Actually nasska there was common law to stop the scenario contemplated in your example.
The Rylands Fletcher decision for example. A very well known piece of case law.
Yes & no. The decision you quote was retrospective in that the dam had already been built & confirmed liability on those responsible for its construction. Such liability is proportionate to the funds available to be spent on fancy legal footwork or bribes.
The RMA instead permits an activity or construction only after its potential consequences have been mitigated or considered acceptable. Where it has come unstuck is the legal costs involved in getting a favourable decision.
The common factor is lawyers & their fees.
Shit nasska, you missed your calling. Very persuasive submissions.
I was trying to keep it simple 🤣
Absolutely right Nasska.
The support RMA consenting industry is destroying individuals,entrepreneurs and any smaller business trying to grow or establish something worth while .
It is also incestuous ,for example a council wishing to abstract gravel from a river for road works had those works held up for 6 months while another department of the same council processed the application.
The hold up was partially due to a mis application of the.” Minerals act”
The cost carried by the poor (er)ratepayers.
And Iwi and koha.
Labour CoL: Never let a crisis go by without using it as an excuse to pass laws that have nothing to do with the present health pandemic.
Replace the Resource Management Act with a law that lets people build without restrictive zoning such as the Metropolitan Urban Limit. from here.
Now we need a press release from David Seymour on property rights to show them that even Labour is now stealing ACT policy 🙂
Riddle me this:
If the lockdown has stopped the spread of an exceptionally deadly flu for which there is no vaccine – then surely existing strains of flu, that do have a vaccine, are now eliminated?

Why are we paying administrators so much to run monopolies? Their remuneration should be based on the level of efficiency and sustainabilty of their operations (meaning that you don’t get rewarded for boosting profitability by deferring maintenance or indulging in other short-term accounting tricks).
After the election we will begin seeing how bad this are.
The election bribes and totalitarianism of the Ardern regime will be suffered by those not yet born.
The vast majority of mawkish moral grandstanding kiwis have no clue about what awaits them.
I wouldn’t worry about the details of corrupt councils.
Another slow Sunday, alone in my quarters
Quietly playing ‘Bridge o’er troubled waters’
The phone rang, I answered, it was Jonesy, me Uncle
“You’re interrupting Si and Garfunkel!”
“Nevermind that, there’s a job you can do”
“A job!” I exclaimed, “I didn’t vote blue!”
“It’s easy” he said, “get up, and get ready
Rangi and Hone have signed up already!”
“I’m not too sure, I quite like the couch”
“Cmon” said old Shane “you can’t stay a slouch!”
“Well, what is the job, how much will it pay?”
“It’s manning a roadblock, just get in the way!”
“Well who will be there, watching my back?”
“Some mongrels of course, in red and some black”
“What about cops, will they help or hinder?”
“Don’t worry, they’re chasing up people on Tinder”
“Look if that doesn’t sound to you like a thrill
There’s shovel ready jobs I’m trying to fill
These jobs are for young men, you’d have to brave
It could end up being that you’d dig a mass grave!”
“Geez Uncle Shane, I’m still not quite sure
Cindy just gave me 25 bucks more!”
“Cmon” said old Shane-o “come share this slush”
” I don’t know Uncle, I don’t see the rush”
I was still undecided when I hung up the phone
I don’t really like to decide on my own
All hui no doey, that’s how I roll
Just send me some Koha you gullible soul
Is that your own work Floyd? Well done! 👍😎
It did come from my own head WG 😎

Share it about. But put the word ‘be’ in front of the word ‘brave’…..

Majercak says he understands DeGeneres’ job as a talk show host is a high-pressure role, but his experience with the host has bugged him for years.
“When you see her on TV, people fall in love with her but it is a false facade and bravado,” he told Fox News.
“You start hearing these stories and I was like, ‘Man, there’s got to be more to this’. She’s not the person she portrays to be that she’s playing off of society. That’s my opinion.”
Fox News did not receive a response from DeGeneres’ team when it requested comment.

Perhaps the Herald should have a look at our Princess and how she behaves.
“It is hard to see that we’re going to be in a high inflationary environment, certainly not caused by monetary issues. If inflation comes like it did in the 1970s, it will come through a commodity shock and probably won’t hit New Zealand because we don’t have food issues. So in a way we become the Saudi Arabia of the 1970s where we have a commodity that the rest of the world needs and that’s good quality food. We produce enough food, I think, to feed 40 million people,” says Manji.
“So that now becomes even more important. And that stewardship of our food production systems becomes something that we want to invest even more in.”

Worth a read. see what the likely future will be.
Thanks Viking. Yes interesting, and some clever cookies in the comments section too. Some of which was above my pay grade!
I am just enquiring if any one knows how many people have been hospitalised in total with this virus? SFA if you add the numbers up I am sure. Why did the government pay out 12 weeks payment to employers? New regulations are coming out to make businesses comply with every 5 minutes. It is going to put them against the wall and fail. Seriously I think more people are usually hospitalised with annual flue viruses than with this. This morning I met a man at the dog park who told me the that it’s a dreadful virus, I said really? not many have been in hospital with it though, paracetamol and perhaps bed rest seem to have done the trick for them. He stalked off. He also had his dog off lead in total disregard to the council new notices of dogs on leads till further notice. But then I let mine off as well as I. cannot see any point in not letting them have a run. I remember watching a foreign film about 20 years ago about a man who kept people underground in a huge bunker pretending that there had been a disaster. The issue wasn’t that they were in any danger, it was that he had them down there as control issue. I believe this is going on here. I believe they are manufacturing cases to keep us under control longer, which makes no sense at all that the number of cases are increasing. Cal me a conspiracy theorist buy you have to wonder at it all don’t you?
The number of new Covid-19 cases is set to be revealed shortly, along with whether any more clusters have been closed.
The numbers will be sent in a statement from the Ministry of Health about 1pm, instead of the usual press conference.
Yesterday there were six new cases and another fatality, former Rosewood Rest Home resident, George Hollings, who was in his 80s, bringing the death toll to 20.
Saturday’s six new cases came after a stretch of low numbers, with just one on Monday, two on Tuesday and Wednesday, three on Thursday and Friday.
all I can say is thank the Lord they have taken the he bitch of the telly.
Warning, strong stomach required.
Marama Davidson’s journey from activist to politician
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2020/05/marama-davidon-s-journey-from-activist-to-politician.html
Since the controversial departure of former Green Party co-leader Metiria Turei, Marama Davidson is now Parliament’s highest ranked wahine Māori politician.
The 46-year-old now has her sights set on Tāmaki Makaurau, launching a two-tick electorate campaign today.
“I’m very clear that this is a very important stand for the Greens and for me to make as a Māori woman in politics. This is the first year that I will standing for Tāmaki Makaurau as co-leader of the Green Party, and I’m really proud of the advocacy I have been able to give for Māori political issues and particularly those that relate to Tāmaki Makaurau.”
She’s full of it. John Tamihere will tear her into segments & use her for arsepaper.

Helen Clark: Women leaders better in Covid-19 crisis ‘because they don’t have such big egos’
Former Prime Minister Helen Clark has put the success of countries with female leaders in tackling Covid-19 down to their ability to listen and having less ego than their male counterparts.

That is a joke. If Ardern ( and Clark for that matter) do not have huge egos what do you call it?
Not ego’s but control freaks. Both of them and they will have us all marching and signing the Red anthem next.
Coronavirus: Jacinda Ardern explains what the Government’s doing to help Māori during the pandemic
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2020/05/coronavirus-jacinda-ardern-explains-what-the-government-s-doing-to-help-m-ori-during-the-pandemic.html
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says Māori are at the decision-making table during the COVID-19 response – despite calls Māori are being left out.
Ardern says there’s been a real effort to make sure the Government is engaging with Māori as early and as quickly as possible.
So far Māori health providers such as Whānau Ora and more than 130 health organisations have been at the centre of the Māori health response. A number of Marae and iwi groups have also played a key role in supporting kaumātua and families.
District health boards, Ardern adds, are also forming key relationships with Māori as well.

DR. FAUCI BACKED CONTROVERSIAL WUHAN LAB WITH MILLIONS OF U.S. DOLLARS FOR RISKY CORONAVIRUS RESEARCH
28/04/20.
In 2019, with the backing of NIAID, the National Institutes of Health committed $3.7 million over six years for research that included some gain-of-function work. The program followed another $3.7 million, 5-year project for collecting and studying bat coronaviruses, which ended in 2019, bringing the total to $7.4 million.
Many scientists have criticized gain of function research, which involves manipulating viruses in the lab to explore their potential for infecting humans, because it creates a risk of starting a pandemic from accidental release.

As predicted – the lockdown has resulted in more suicides than Covid-19 deaths.
The government has moved swiftly to remove the details from the public view. Note this propaganda piece won’t provide the “official” figures.
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/new-zealand/2020/05/mental-health-foundation-shuts-down-irresponsible-suicide-claims-being-made-on-social-media.html
From Kea’s link:
…..” “These rumours and their accompanying commentary imply that suicide is an expected, understandable and proportionate response to COVID-19, and that’s both untrue and an extremely unhelpful thing to suggest,” said Robinson. “…….
The man’s at best an idiot. Does he seriously expect there not to be increased suicides as people see their relationships fucked, their businesses wrecked & their houses sold from under them while PriNZess preens?
What demographic segment in the NZ population do you think would show the greatest increase in rate of suicide?
Disaffected youth have always featured prominently in the statistics, but would their numbers jump so much in the wake of the Covid-19 countermeasures?
Will members of some groups more likely to kill themselves than others over this and the next several months as job layoffs and subsequent financial stresses increase? Who is the most vulnerable?
I think I read the other day that 40,000 people in the US suicided on the 1929 stock market crash.
A lot of people are up to their limit in debt. Some cannot handle the perceived embarrassment of being bankrupted and unable to provide for their family.
It will be this segment of the population IMHO.
Prior to intentional roll out of fake virus.
Globally 800,000 people die from suicide every year – that’s twice the number from homicide.
Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in young people.
1.4% of global deaths in 2017 were from suicide. In some countries, this share is as high as 5%.
Suicide rates are typically higher for older individuals.
Globally, the suicide rate for men is twice as high as for women. In many countries this ratio is even higher.
Suicide rates from firearms are particularly high in the US – 60% of deaths from firearms result from suicide.
Self-poisoning from pesticides have had a large toll, particularly in low-to-middle income countries. Bans on some pesticides have been effective in reducing suicide rates.
According to
https://chapterland.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/13/2017/11/US_FactsFigures_Flyer.pdf
“90% of those who died by suicide had a diagnosable mental health condition at the time of their death.”
Okay. To put this in context, one must ask the question _____________________________________________________________?
What question would you ask?
Extrovert or introvert? I’ve long thought that the former will kill whoever they consider responsible for their position. The introvert looks around for the bleach or a bus.
I was thinking along the lines of what percentage of the population has a “diagnosable mental health condition”? It turns out that the rate is a little over 1 in 4 in the US.
We have WoFs for cars to save lives, so why not WoMFs (Warrant of Mental Fitness) for our inhabitants of the NZ utopia of 2020?
//
As the majority of us have not been declared mentally well under the Mental Health Act 2002, I submit most of us are of unconfirmed status.
I have never studied phychiatry but I suspect that many of the well-known mental illnesses have very wide spectra.
I wonder which ones most of us could be made to fit on?
Being the daughter of a suicidee, I was conscious of the fact that I may have inherited some of my mother’s tendencies…
One day I realised I was older than she was when she shot herself (age 48)… I hadn’t had any episodes of depression as she had… so I sort of figured that I probably hadn’t inherited her depressive gene (s).
I differ from her in some other ways – I’m not a perfectionist; I’m not a worrier; I don’t take any psychoactive drugs/medications.
I have younger relatives who suffer depressive episodes (and I’d describe these folks as perfectionists).
I’m a bit of a believer in “near enough is good enough” and failure isn’t a bad thing.
I am one that has actually been certified as being mentally well, fit to be in the community.
I agree that not many could say this.
After spending 3 months in psyche wards in 03, I gained the distinction, after having previously been ‘under section’.
This, after suffering a major depressive episode from being left to calve and milk 400 cows on my own. I sadly hit the wall.
Luckily for me, after my partner ran with the kids, that I had a wonderfully supportive family, especially a stoic father.
Life goes onwards.
The question is:
What situation exacerbated your illness, be it hidden or known, that led to you being pushed over the edge?
From this layman’s pov I’d expect the greatest jump in 30 to 50 YO males especially those who own their own businesses. Many of their women will jump ship with the kids when the money stops rolling in & this will exacerbate their positions.
As for youth……depends on their makeup. If they were drama queens & emos before I guess they’re at an increased risk.
I agree. Of course suicide is the tip of a very large iceberg. Ardern’s power grab will have an immeasurable impact for years. Hundreds of thousands have had their lives destroyed by her actions. Millions have been detrimentally affected.
Many won’t cope as they are in denial. They think house prices might drop 10% and it will take 2 years to fully recover.
Which is utter nonsense.
It will be used as another excuse to disarm NZ Kea. The socialist mindset says removing guns, poison & fencing off cliffs will lower suicide. The sane know that it won’t make a blind bit of difference & if someone wants to kill themselves they will.
I drove a stocktruck for sixteen years & one of my workmates had someone do away with themselves by driving a car straight at him. It really fucked the poor bugger over & apparently it’s the thing that worries train drivers too.
No nasty guns & the nation’s HT drivers can pucker up & take their chances.
In Japan the 人身事故 (jinshin jiko or “personal injury incident”) is the scourge of the train driver.
Here is a video of one such suicide from the train driver’s perspective.
WARNING (not for the faint of heart)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAMUmLpWE2o
I would experience train delays a couple of times a month on my commutes back in the late 1980s in Tokyo due to this kind of thing, so it is very real to me.
It is so regrettable that a middle-aged man (in the prime of his life) feels that there is no other option left to him.
Quote from article:
“There are very few people in the country who are able to accurately assess numbers of suicides at a national level in real-time. It is critically important not to contribute to misunderstandings and false information about suicide in New Zealand.
WTF!!!!
Another sign of of denial, based on ineptitude, wrapped in a shroud of secrecy.
They really are atrocious, lying, dirt bags.
A Senior-Ranking Police Officer friend of mine told me two weeks ago that suicides and suicide attempts were going “through the roof”.
The Government are lying to protect Jacinda..

“its not going to be used for anything”.

Beachgoers and builders in the firing line amid warning of ‘concerning’
Rather than lifeguards, police were controlling a beach in Christchurch today in a crackdown on people breaching Level 3 restrictions.

Wally HaHa, how many plod are on the racist roadblocks and not out catching crims?
Fucking pussy cucks can go storm a public beach and write a few speeding tickets, but when some tongue a Ta fenua hold hostage to a public place it’s all guitars and hands on deck in support.

The police are there to subvert the population, not protect it in any way.

The older ones have enough life experience to see the politicians are pissing down their back and telling them it is raining.
People have had their rights smashed.
Several states in USA protesting and invading Govt buildings.
Rightly so.
One for nasska!
Simon Bridges holds steady on leaving Level 3 but health experts disagree
National leader, Simon Bridges says New Zealand needs to leave Covid-19 Alert Level 3 now with BusinessNZ agreeing it’s time to breathe life back into the economy.
https://www.tvnz.co.nz/content/tvnz/onenews/story/2020/05/03/business-and-health-leaders-hold-mixed-views-on-moving-to-level.html?auto=6153793663001
The leader of the opposition says the country is desperate to get the economy moving.
“I think it’s gone on too long, let’s get New Zealand working again,” he told 1 NEWS.
And he’s got 6,000 reasons why, one for every new person who signed up for a benefit last week.
“Like the man who’s told me he’s now feeding his family porridge and cereal for dinner, we can do better than that and the big answer is to end the lockdown,” Mr Bridges says.
That’s not Godboy! Com’on whoever you are…….give National back their wimp! 🙂
nasska, that is the problem in our country,none,zero of any of those troughing pigs down in Wellington has any idea what to do now when Cindy finally releases the country from our temporary communist shackles.
And I mean all 120 of the useless hopeless pieces of shit, the only people that would’ve given us a chance left politics when the maggot Peters elected Ardern to lead our country.
Some of the F- – -K ups we’ve had for the last 3 years will seem like total successes when compared to whats to come in the next few months.
And from our “Ask your Imam” files:
“My wife keeps coming out of the kitchen to nag at me……what have I done wrong?”
“By Allah the most Merciful. You have made her chain too long.”
Nasska…
Saw an internet meme yesterday.
It had Achmed standing beside the marital bed preparing to disrobe. His AK47 was leaning against the wall beside him.
At the foot of the bed was Death, black robed, hood up and holding his sythe.
Achmed, “get that burka off Fatima….its time for my conjugals”
Death, “I think there’s been a misunderstanding”.
“Remdesivir Is Probably Worthless” – A Trauma Surgeon Exposes “Drug Company’s Shenanigans”
Markets got very excited (briefly) this week about a study finding a Gilead Sciences drug helped coronavirus patients heal a little more quickly.
But that was all the trial found: remdesivir isn’t the miracle cure that will get us all out of lockdowns tomorrow, unfortunately.
Worse, as Bloomberg’s Faye Flam writes, the trial was rushed to get quick FDA approval, without getting helpful information on what kinds of patients it helps or hurts the most; and now that the study is over, we’ve forever lost a chance to help doctors treat virus patients better.
All of which raises a significant number of questions and Acute Care Surgeon (and Asst Professor of Surgery at Wash U.) Mark Hoofnagle warns “I am truly sorry to say, Remdesivir is probably worthless…”

Also on Wednesday, results were published by the Lancet medical journal of a trial conducted in China that concluded remdesivir failed to improve patients’ condition or reduce the pathogen’s presence in the bloodstream.
Remdesivir: ‘Clear-cut’ results show Gilead drug can fight coronavirus, says Anthony Fauci
“Unfortunately, our trial found that, while safe and adequately tolerated, remdesivir did not provide significant benefits over placebo,” said Professor Bin Cao, from China-Japan Friendship Hospital and Capital Medical University in China, who led the research.

Of course “big pharma” Fauci will want to push remdesivir it costs $1000 a dose. Meanwhile in Italy they have started giving hydroxychloroquine out free of charge at pharmacies because they are satisfied that it really is effective and works. The drug, Plaquenil, costs about ten cents per pill so the vaccine hawks will hate it.
An unconfirmed report from the UK which I have not been able to verify yet says that remdesivir leads to male sterility in which case they should start using it throughout Africa and the ME without further delay even if it doesn’t work on the CCP virus.
The proof keeps piling up.
Hydroxychloroquine Has about 90 Percent Chance of Helping COVID-19 Patients
To date, the total number of reported patients treated with HCQ, with or without zinc and the widely used antibiotic azithromycin, is 2,333, writes AAPS, in observational data from China, France, South Korea, Algeria, and the U.S. Of these, 2,137 or 91.6 percent improved clinically. There were 63 deaths, all but 11 in a single retrospective report from the Veterans Administration where the patients were severely ill.
The antiviral properties of these drugs have been studied since 2003. Particularly when combined with zinc, they hinder viral entry into cells and inhibit replication. They may also prevent overreaction by the immune system, which causes the cytokine storm responsible for much of the damage in severe cases, explains AAPS. HCQ is often very helpful in treating autoimmune diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.

Probabaly why the Chinese don’t want it.

A post just too good not to get more oxygen.
Bloomfield has given us all a right scolding for being naughty at Level 3, and if we don’t behave he won’t give us Level 2.
Question: MMM, BP and the Outlaws seems to be doing a good enough job of keeping the country supplied with their drugs of choice despite a Level 4 lock down, so why doesn’t MoH contract distribution of Flu Vaccines to the professionals. On time, every time, come rain or come shine.
After all, we’re already contracting out law and order to them.
