No doubt many already have listened to this train-wreck of an interview between Mike Hosking and the Part Time Prime Minister: https://www.facebook.com/nznpmwg/videos/1028044637614046
Covid Cindy only has to put up with Mike’s nonsense for another 6 weeks.
After she wins the “Covid Election” and democracy is suspended (“Fur Ihre Seicherheit”) Mike will be among the first to be packed off to the gulag (along with Ed and the rest of us here)
Goody. A free holiday! Yee haaaaa.
(I think)
I think we will all be ‘Roomies’ at the Gulag!
But, but, but – Kelvin and Angry Andy want the gulags empty – so we should be ok and won’t have to put up with rapists and murders because they will be out on the streets.
According to the Left, the Gulags were holiday camps…

Wot? It’s the leftists way of keeping safe. Can’t be too sure you are not going to be one of the 80,000.
Conversations IN the water cooler.
Hmm should be interesting, although I don’t think we need to read the book to know its happening…. https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2020/08/31/deleted-big-techs-battle-erase-trump-movement-steal-election/

Vernon Jones: My Life Was Threatened by ‘Violent Mob of Supporters of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’

Around the world the Scam-demic narrative is collapsing
This was always going to happen given the MSM hysteria, the hysterically inflated epidemiological modelling numbers, the way leftist political hacks leapt on the disease.
The latest brick in the wall to fall out is the staggering revelation that only 6% of the 160k US Covid deaths were actually caused by Covid.
I’ll say that again another way. The CDC over-reported the Covid death toll by 1600%!
All the rest of the Covid death toll was attributed to people who had co-morbidity factors (co-morbidity is the official sounding way that professional liars say “were more or less dying already”).
Once again I’m minded of Mark Twain’s wise words that were presciently written for this monstrous fraud perpetrated on the Western world this year.
“It’s easier to fool a man than it is to convince him he’s been fooled”
Try pointing this little fact out to any of the Covid Karens or Covid Kevins you bump into. They are so heavily invested in the lie that they’ll insult you before they’re prepared to accept that they have been so foolishly gullible.
And finally, they say that there is nothing more confirming than an official denial – so if you want the best confirmation possible that Covid is a massive conspiracy – here is an official “denial” from the EU that anything questioning the Covid narrative is a conspiracy theory
They’re running scared folks!

This is who DPF wants us President of the USA
Seriously, DPF can support Adele’s new hairstyle for US President if he wants, I don’t give a fuck. But his judgment, his astute and nuanced reading of the political landscape is that humanity’s interests are best served by putting this vegetable in the White House with his finger on the nuclear button?
How can someone whose judgment is so obviously flawed on politics is supposed to be wisely guiding National as the main reader of the tea leaves?
If National don’t save us from Covid Cindy this election, a fair part of the blame must rest at Farrar’s door for reading the mood of the nation incorrectly.
I posted on Kiwiblog for nearly a decade and used to have immense respect for DPF.
His dramatic ‘Lurch Left’ and moves towards Censorship/Though Police absolutely astounded me.
In the turbulent world we currently live in we need freedom of speech and an open exchange of ideas…
Kiwiblog is a Left Wing Cesspit- I see hardly any of the ‘old gang’ post there anymore either…
I post there under the handle ‘Sigmund Freud’. I’ve been booted off when my handle was ‘Jacinda Ardhern’ (lol) and Te Rauparaha. I have found that the censorship has got worse since Farrar delegated to role of moderator.
DPF became scared of his own shadow when the witchhunt started after the Christchurch shootings.
Paddy Gower and co roaming the land accusing anyone who isn’t hard-left in their Political views a ‘White Supremacist’ etc
It was a ridiculous,crazy time and I believe DPF overreacted…
DPF overreacted to Paddy Gower and his woke, virtue signalling ilk setting out on a witch hunt. Meanwhile…
Ed stood up to the lefty bullying trolls and set up YSB for those who recognise the absolute necessity for freedom of speech.
Love ya Ed. 😘

Another point worth considering is that DPF has never been as one with the Godbothering, social conservatives who currently run National. He was (& I suspect still is) a liberal who favours sensible fiscal policies.
When Key left & English took over DPF was somewhat sidelined.
Batman on KB is such a cock smoker.
Could it be that when you become rich / successful / powerful (see the owners of the Tech giants) you change.
I have noticed that the more powerful become more controlling and authoritarian.
I wonder why that is.
Is it a natural condition?
It’s when manipulative rich authoritarians get together and decide on a new world order, that the world economy needs a reset and then set out to manipulate the world population through like minded puppet governments.
I too have noticed that. It’s not the natural progression of wealth accumulation. More likely a result of the result of who they associate with. The more money they have the more insecure they become. By shifting to a better area, similar lifestyles, keeping up with the jones syndrome becomes the norm.
As an example, I live in the “best” suburb of Cambridge. St Kilda is a relatively new community. (The average house price is above 1.2 mill. For the Waikato that is high) A mixture of young and up and coming folk who are all looking affluent. Mrs Holy is always giving me shit for bringing the standard down by my dress code, dirty vehicles and generally not giving a stuff what the neighbours think.
100% correct Ed. Ive got a bit of coin but I walk around over here in boardies, old surfer tee shirt and jandals. Locals here look at me like Im dog shit..Lo-so ( low society ). The other side of the coin are the Hi-so wannabes. Wearing label clothing, driving around in brand new Ford Rangers ( with the drivers window down ffs, most have closed with air con on full tit ) thinking their shit dont stink. Wankers.
Me, I prefer to fly under the radar.
Ed, I think you are on to it.
Once one becomes a “god,” one meets and hangs out with the other gods.
Since the gods know what is best for the mere mortals, the gods decide to set social policy (with the help of compliant politicians).
To put these policies into practice requires the little people to be obedient. If the sheep act like cats, then how do you herd them?
Herding cats: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_MaJDK3VNE
My kind of guy. I behave like that. and I don’t give a shit what others think unless it suits me too.
I think he got married.
DPF messed up by allowing KB to become an echo chamber of extreme Zionism and associated anti Muslim hysteria.
I warned the prick for years. And look at the way my wise counsel was received 😜
Just as well we can all see through your wise counsel here then Kea.
A little bird squawking here from time to time has no affect on this blog.
Nothing wrong with a bit of Zionism better than communism for sure
Jews gave us Marxism. Though they were not typically Zionists.
1000 kiwis a week are returning to NZ.
Record-low housing stock, sky-high asking prices as COVID-19 pandemic impacts market
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/money/2020/09/record-low-housing-stock-sky-high-asking-prices-as-covid-19-pandemic-impacts-market.html
“Our national housing shortage is not getting better and with all-time stock lows in nearly half of our regions, buyers across the country had less choice than ever last month,” said Realestate.co.nz spokesperson Vanessa Taylor.
She said New Zealand’s fast-growing population coupled with an increase in the number of Kiwis returning home due to COVID-19 was likely increasing the demand for property.
“With many Kiwis unable or reluctant to relocate overseas right now, this too is likely putting a strain on the market.”
Very nice…. and all the doom merchants were predicting the bubble bursting. Its not a bubble. Its economics 101. Market forces of supply and demand, and low interest rates coupled with people investing in safe commodoties as the stock markets are too volatile. Gold is at $1978 https://www.jmbullion.com/charts/gold-price/ in 31 years its increased by a mere 438%/.
Sub-2% interest rates are being predicted for next year. First home buyers and investors are going to be going at it hammer and tongs.
HOUSE CONSTRUCTION MOVING UP A GEAR
New dwelling consents were particularly strong in Auckland in July (+7.9% year-on-year) although there’s been a slide in the number of retirement village units being consented. Nationally however, the change was flat year-on-year. In Australia, July consents were up too, by +6.0% year-on-year.

Hipkins has just argued that masks are not bullet proof. Read this from stuff carefully.
“The guidance to schools was a bit different depending on which age group was involved, Hipkins said.
“If you’re talking about early childhood, primary schooling, then obviously we’re saying mask use is probably not going to be that effective there, because they’re going to be touching it all the time and taking it on and off and all of that sort of thing.
“In secondary schools if students want to wear masks, teachers want to wear masks, that’s absolutely ok there. In fact, it’s fine for schools to encourage it. It’s not compulsory but it’s ok for them to use those extra protective measures.””
I,.E if you are touching it, or removing it and putting it back on, they are a waste of time. Further, does he want kids and teacher’s faces looking like this:

if that link is iffy just google “face mask skin damage”.
Finally after assuring us schools are safe, will he resign if an out break occurs in a school …..
The mask made out of cowshit & kiwifruit could be a winner. 🙂

Sack the little prick but Starbucks are woke so will probably promote the little darling. Another dumb lefty company to boycott.
Starbucks..tick, another one on the Hunty boycott list.
I went into S/bucks Patong about a month ago. I was the only customer “Just a cup of tea love, black.”
“Sure, 150 baht thanks” ( around $7nz)
“Yeah..nah thanks anyway.”
In a very posh English school, there was a very strict teacher, in his gown, reading the register and he had just yelled at some other boy for failing to call him “Doctor.” He gave a long speech about how people must be addressed by their correct title as he has earned that respect, all with a large smirk, and then he moved on to the young man next to him who the story is about; he called out the young man’s last name and waited to hear the reply that he is present.
“Suffolk.” There was a pause, and the teacher repeated himself “Suffolk!” still no reply. The teacher walked round to the boy who was grinning at him. “Why aren’t you replying, Suffolk?” he demanded.
The young man replied, “Because you have got my title wrong, doctor. I am the Earl of Suffolk so the correct address is My Lord.”
Sounds very progressive compared with my old boarding school. The teaching/administration staff were addressed as Sir, the incorrect modulation & physical stance whilst uttering the word being a caning offence.
Pupils were depersonalised to their surnames which were further objectified should there be more than one eg Smith 1, Smith 2.
Somehow I found it liberating. It’s so much easier to despise an arsehole for what they represent. 🙂
China detains Australian journalist as tensions between countries run high
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/world/2020/09/china-detains-australian-journalist-as-tensions-between-countries-run-high.html
Tensions between Beijing and Canberra have been running high since the Australian government called for an international inquiry into the origins of the novel coronavirus. Beijing has since imposed trade tariffs and anti-dumping probes on multiple Australian products.
Australian citizen and journalist Cheng Lei, who worked for Chinese state television’s international channel, CGTN, in Beijing, had been detained for two weeks, the statement said.
It said the Australian government received formal notification of her detention from Chinese authorities on August 14.
Cheng Lei is learning if you lie with dogs your going to catch fleas or a virus, China is our mortal enemy not a friend

Remember the good old days when National called the shots.
Had National even dreamed of facial recognition the great unwashed would have been rioting and burning vehicles.
They were so paranoid about Big Brother.
Now that labour are in power they are championing this along with the Police not having a speed tolerance to make up for dodgy speedos, tyre sizes….
Remember the original story (Now magically erased from history) about how Clarke and Jacinda met?
They met to discuss their shared concerns about increasing Police surveillance powers…..
Now they are spying on all of us, just for her!

Coronavirus: Alert level 1 possible without finding source of cluster – Health Minister
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2020/09/coronavirus-alert-level-1-possible-without-finding-source-of-cluster-health-minister.html
The next step down on the alert level framework is alert level 1, for when COVID-19 is uncontrolled overseas, there are sporadic imported cases and there could be isolated local transmission occurring in New Zealand.
Speaking to The AM Show on Tuesday, Health Minister Chris Hipkins said we aren’t yet ready for what is the most relaxed of the alert levels.

Lockdown deaths not Covid deaths.

I watched a movie the other night called “Vice”. It is about Dick Cheney’s political life. Worth watching if you are interested in US politics and recent history. Given it was made by Hollywood ( Brad Pitt was one of the producers) and it’s about a Republican you have to watch it with that in mind, but still worth a watch.
James Shaw has just had a press release and says it’s all the fault of the NP Mayor and nine long years of Nationals fault that he dished out 12 mill to a private school, that is out to make a profit.
Dancing on a head here James. Been watching Shane and the mad queen on tv, have we?
The school us built out in the sticks away about 10/15 km from NP on farmland, so all the pupils will be delivered to school by bus or mummy’s SUV.
Along with all the teachers and maintenance staff all driving in. Maybe they will ride share.
The closest town is about 4 km, which is a dormitory settlement.
Pupils at the school are charged 20/45 thou a year to attend.
All of this raises questions that the media should be fighting over,
Where did the land come from, is it donated, rented, how much, too who, why there?
Then there is the business of the school it self.
To me it seems like one big vanity project that in rural Taranki will have trouble self funding!
Maybe it would work in a denser (dorklanders) population?
I just hope that the buildings are transportable!
Oh dear, Megan Woods and Air Commodore Webb do the clown show today at 1PM..
Where is the mad queen, chippy and Ashley Bloomfield?
Something strange is going down, that they don’t want to tell us!
14 new cases today. Some are from India that come via Fiji, which sounds strange. What airline flys from India to Fiji, fom which way?
146 linked to the south auckland cluster that turned up out of the blue.
The Ho Panicked and thru Ak under the bus and locked it down. Then let you out with a multitude more cases out and about know. But they don’t count, there’s an election to win!
Lot of Indians in Fiji Sooty. I’d say flights pretty frequent on that route normally.
A couple of days ago, Spindy was asked if the Health Officials had given any advice that Auckland stay longer in level 3. Ashley wasn’t there, but the woman standing in for him (can’t remember her name) gave Ardern the death stare when Ardern said all the health advice was to go to level 2.
Now, my theory is that once again Ashley is getting positioned in the bus lane, in case things go pear-shaped. If this is the case the MoH will be rightly well pissed. This could account for the no-show. Yesterday they were at lengths, when asked of his whereabouts, to inform us that Ashley was well. (Funny thing to say now that I think about it).
Facebook threatens to stop Australian users from sharing news
Facebook is threatening to stop Australian users from sharing news if the social media giant is forced to compensate media companies for publishing their stories.
https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-zealand/facebook-threatens-stop-australian-users-sharing-news
Facebook executive Will Easton said a code of conduct being pursued by the Australian government ignored the relationship between social media and news organisations, which he claimed would suffer the most.
“Assuming this draft code becomes law, we will reluctantly stop allowing publishers and people in Australia from sharing local and international news on Facebook and Instagram,” he said in a statement on Tuesday.
The threat follows similar warnings from Google, which claimed the proposed media bargaining laws could force it to offer Australian users “dramatically worse” Google Search and YouTube products.
Mr Easton said Facebook supported the Australian government’s goal of supporting struggling news organisations, but its solution was counterproductive.
He argued the government wrongly assumed Facebook benefited most in its relationship with publishers, when the reverse was true.
Coronavirus: Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters claims officials ‘covering their butts’ over Auckland COVID-19 outbreak
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2020/09/coronavirus-deputy-prime-minister-winston-peters-claims-officials-covering-their-butts-over-auckland-covid-19-outbreak.html
When the cluster emerged last month, Winston Peters told Australian media he was told by a “usually very reliable” journalist the city’s outbreak was linked to the quarantine system.
He doubled down on those comments in the days that followed.
Officials then and now maintain the source of the Auckland outbreak has yet to be determined. Health Minister Chris Hipkins on Tuesday likened the cluster to a “puzzle” and said a few pieces were still missing.
Asked by Magic Talk’s Peter Williams if he still believed the outbreak came from the border despite officials not yet determining the source, Peters said, “They’re doing their best to cover their butt”.
Why does he just come out and tell us? What games are these politicians playing…..
It’s election time so Peters likes to throw gas on the fire to ignite interest in NZ First by pretending to be fighters of political corruption. He is a master of projection, reflecting what he understands best, how to manipulate the system and obsequious prone voters to benefit himself. 🤩
I wish he’d throw himself on the fire.

Jacinda Ardern, Judith Collins butt heads in Parliament over Covid-19 accountability
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern today insisted the Government “fronts up every day” on Covid-19, after National leader Judith Collins appeared to question her accountability.
https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-zealand/jacinda-ardern-judith-collins-butt-heads-in-parliament-over-covid-19-accountability?auto=6186455607001
The exchange came after Ms Ardern on Sunday said she was “incredibly angry” after learning of a Facebook post from Unite Against Covid-19 asking people in West and South Auckland to be tested for the virus, even if they didn’t have symptoms.
There is a 2nd video of Judith speaking on her and National MPs visit to Taranaki and the annoyance of school principals that their state schools requiring much needed maintenance have not received funding such as the privately run Green School has from the current government.

So beltway! The country surely wouldn’t care a stuff
Judith Collins apologises over National Party ad Chris Hipkins complained was misleading
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2020/09/judith-collins-apologises-over-national-party-ad-chris-hipkins-complained-was-misleading.html
House Speaker Trevor Mallard said in Parliament on Tuesday he had received a letter from Hipkins raising with him a “matter of privilege” – a reference to matters affecting Parliament’s rules.
The image, posted to the National Party’s social media pages, was made to look like a Labour Party letter and showed a written answer by Hipkins to National’s health spokesperson Dr Shane Reti about COVID-19 testing.
Mallard said under “normal circumstances” he would be “inclined” to refer it to the Privileges Committee – sort of like Parliament’s court – because the post “purports to be authorised by the leader of the Opposition” even though Collins says she did not see it before publication.
“The general manager of the New Zealand National Party has taken responsibility for it,” Mallard said. “The post involved the manufacture of a fake ministerial letterhead to lend authenticity to the misrepresentation.”
……”So beltway! The country surely wouldn’t care a stuff”…..
But you are referring to misleading the electorate with a a fake ministerial letterhead & the consequent abuse of Parliamentary privilege WG.
In the small hamlet of Eketahuna we seldom spoke of anything else. 🙂

Joe Biden’s speech in Pittsburgh today
https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1300588719947350016
Huge turnout. Bhahahahahahaha!
Watched Oral Questions in the House briefly today.
Got the predictable patsy for FinanceMinister Robertson at Q3 from Greg O’Connor, must have been his turn. There primary question was answered using page one of Minister Robertson’s notes and then the supplementaries using pages two and three. All very predictable, rah rah, we are doing well from Minister Robertson.
Then David Seymour popped up with a supplementary that the notes did not provide for. The answer was waffle and David Seymour took the view the question was not answered. Speaker Mallard rushed to determine it was yet David Seymour did not feel that was the case. Mr Seymour persisted, twice, risking getting ejected but stopping before that point with sufficient conciliatory tone to stay in there.
I was listening carefully and took the view the question was not answered. I do not see the exchange as one of the finer moments in the house. My view is David Seymour did well and, while the question was not answered in my view, won the exchange on the basis of integrity.
The exchanges over Q3 today demonstrated the governments improper use of questions to enable rah rah answers from the Finance Minister. I do not find his answers useful or convincing given the situation the country faces.
I thought the response to Paul Goldsmith from Minister Robertson over the Green School Grant was also unconvincing. Leaving it as a matter for the Infrastructure Group did not convince me the Governments decision on this case has been made with integrity or regard for taxpayers. Laying out the now very tired “decade of neglect” response does not justify the very poor situation in relation to the Green School.
Now to make your day.
If players individually or the team collectively want to openly and demonstrably support Black Lives Matter, they must be allowed to do so without sanction or fear of reprisal.
Yep the All Blacks.
.That’s them fucked for good.

Allow me to translate:
This is a demand for the all blacks to announce their support for BLM, a foreign terrorist group.
rugby was fucked when they called the trophy aoterower
Isn’t “Aotearoa” Te Reo for “woke”?
So, “Rugby Aotearoa” should be translated as “Woke Rugby”…?
Just waiting for Raelene Castle to take the reins!
The all blacks are woke enough.
It’s a womans turn!

I’ve just watched a Catholic porn film…
There was 10 minutes of sex in it, followed by 50 minutes of guilt.
That’s caused an “Exhibit” or “Evidence” not porn, silly.
I prefer this “porn”, and no guilt. ( Don’t worry, its not naked people)

Fucking tyranny in Victoria.
David Limbrick MP
Today I spoke strongly against the extension of the emergency powers to the Government. Rather than use the temporary powers to come up with solutions that are compatible with a free society, their response to the pandemic has become totally dependent on these powers.

Have they stepped up the pace to authoritarianism? Panic is setting in with the left as they can see people are very sceptical of the lockdown, etc so their intention for a “one world order” is beginning to unravel?
Exclusive: BBC’s new boss threatens to axe Left-wing comedy shows
Tim Davie believes the BBC’s comedy output is seen as too one-sided, and unfairly biased against the Tories, Donald Trump and Brexit

Bye Bye Greens, don’t let the door smack your arse on the way out. I hope this finishes them. The rank and file Greenies will be pissed.
“Green co-leader James Shaw refused to sign-off on $3bn of infrastructure projects unless Green School was included”
“Minister Shaw won’t sign this briefing until the Green School in Taranaki is incorporated.”
The email said Shaw discussed the ultimatum with the Education Minister.
“Minister Shaw has also discussed this one with Minister Hipkins.
“Sorry to be the spanner-in-the-works, but if we can get the project included, he’ll sign everything this afternoon,” the email said.
Not the brightest thing to do it on an e mail…. Muppetts.

And Hipkins is playing fast and loose with the truth as well – Thanks Maggy
Today in Parliament Chris Hipkins has been very coy about his involvement with this project:
7. NICOLA WILLIS (National) to the Minister of Education: Was he or the Ministry of Education consulted about any aspect of the application by Green School New Zealand for funding prior to its announcement; if so, did he raise concerns about providing Government funding for this project?
Hon CHRIS HIPKINS (Minister of Education): I had a conversation about the application with James Shaw towards the end of July and I gave him feedback that from an educational portfolio perspective the school would not be a priority for investment.
Nicola Willis: Well then, why did the project get funding?
Hon CHRIS HIPKINS: I’m not ministerially responsible for that.
SPEAKER: Yeah, I should have cut off the—well, the member’s used a supplementary, so it’s all right.
Nicola Willis: Was he aware of Treasury advice that “… it would be inappropriate to announce or provide government funding for a project that does not yet have the necessary education approvals”, and has the Green School met the legal requirements for registration?
Hon CHRIS HIPKINS: No, I wouldn’t have seen that advice because I was not one of the Ministers involved in approving the project.
He’s lying again. Since when does the minister of Education not get involved in education spending. But looking at Cindy and her attempt to explain it, she tried to say when the govt is spending 20 billion a week, 11 million is not worth mentioning. Fucken bitch, it’s all taxpayers money.
Right. And this taxpayer is not OK with this grant and increasingly uneasy at the government responses condoning it. This does not satisfy my expectation the government will act with integrity and particularly in relation to expenditure. This case does not pass the sniff test for me.
Resign James Shaw!
Silly woman, it’s not the amount of money that is the problem, but how it got approved. Green corruption is the issue here. Yes, resign now Shaw.
Black Lives Matter, especially those that support Trump!
