Certainly dire north of chch. Talking to an agent today it seems even locally that whiskey bottles are taking a hammering , a lot of it will be the loss of hyped up cindy induced land values .most sales now are 30% down on the world is ending hype of 2022.

Yet the dead man was called a “gun-man” & no report of the gun found, even if had run out of ammo, nor report of a gun being brandished or fired.

I posted about the two Russian war ships and nuclear sub arriving in Cuba a couple of days ago and have waited to hear the outrage from the WH. Apparently the Russian’s are there for “war games” but we all know it is a volatile strategic move by Putin making a strong political point to the WH on Russia’s military power.

It was Saturday morning and John, an avid hunter, woke up ready to go bag the first deer of the season. He walks down to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, and to his surprise he finds his wife, Mary, sitting there, fully dressed in camouflage. John asks her, “What are you up to?” Mary smiles, “I’m going hunting with you!” John, though he has many reservations, reluctantly decides to take her along. They arrive at the hunting site. John sets his wife safely up in the tree stand and tells her: “If you see a deer, take careful aim on it and I’ll come running back as soon as I hear the shot.” John walks away with a smile on his face knowing that Mary couldn’t bag an elephant — much less a deer. But not 10 minutes pass when he is startled as he hears an array of gunshots. Quickly, John starts running back. As John gets closer to her stand, he hears Mary screaming, “Get away from my deer!” Confused, John races faster towards his screaming wife. And again he hears her yell, “Get away from my deer!” followed by another volley of gunfire. Now within sight of where he had left his wife, John is surprised to see a cowboy, with his hands high in the air. The cowboy, obviously distraught, says, “Okay, lady, okay! You can have your deer! Just let me get my saddle off it!”‘

Immigration is Bad For Britain | Douglas Murray

Our governments, seemed to be convinced by the elites like the so called self acclaiming emeritus Professors of academia, like Spoonley & his sycophants, keeps on with the schilling media pushing for more immigration.
That sets the stage to “open borders” propaganda.

The worst part is the censoring, abusing, denigration, called heartless, etc., any one who questions this, to prevent any actual debate & discussion.

I agree that many of the migrants to NZ are hard working, which pleases the employers.

However I also note that there is a serious increase of numbers of ones, with not a great education, with few skills if any.
They have become couch surfers, feed via State TV propaganda, so have agreeably settled for what the government, foodbanks, opp shops, will provide along with the bene’s & accommodation allowances.

That state of mind, then leads to major problems, like “instant gratification” “being a victim” with a short term cunning.
The “idle hands” then allows major mischiefs to occur, and a form of self protection in becoming a “rent a mob” protesters, enrolled via KFC treating etc.. + vote.

So why do we not take care of all our own citizens in the first place, or more importantly, get them to look after themselves, to become educated, (budgeting) become skilled, to provide for themselves,

It is like a ship that has struck the rocks, for whatever reason, & another ship comes along to aid in the rescue.
It is not to go on the rocks also, as another useless “virtue signals”

One of the main marine laws of the Seas, is not to endanger your crew & passengers.
A marine court will do the Captain & Officers if anything bad happens to the rescuing ship. !

For the latest on the Great Marokopa Safari https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/350309667/marokopa-locals-really-over-it-police-hone-find-tom-phillips. The reporter has interviewed some Marokopa locals & it seems that the reward of $80,000 may go unclaimed.

# ““He’s obviously worried about their [kids] safety, and if you know the bush there is a lot of safety in the bush.”

# “Whatever he’s doing, whatever is in his head, so long as he keeps the kids happy and fed.”

# “a resident – who spoke to Waikato Times on the condition of anonymity, was frustrated by sirens wailing before 5am and three police cars speeding past their residence.”

# “We are really over it, everyone is so done.”

The Police won’t get far in a small NZ settlement like Marokopa if the locals choose not to play ball while the strident shitheads of the Sisterhood will be challenged to alter rural Kiwis’ sense of justice & fair play.

My bet Nasska is that Plod are not getting the “heaps of leads” they claim they are and most of these so called “leads” will be hopeful wannabes, with no knowledge of Marokopa or Tom Phillips, hoping to make a quid, but with no chance of getting the reward or just seeking to get a bit of attention themselves.

After two weeks of this expensive bullshit, Plod will come up empty and Mr Phillips will just get on with life.

The whole exercise will be futile and Plod will end up with a lot of egg on their pasty faces.

In another eight years the youngest will be sixteen & it will be too late for the mother to get the DPB payment she expected as of right when she tried to boot the father out of the kids’ lives.

Another report suggests that the Police are terrorising Marokopa residents with constant breath testing (excuse for the roadblocks) & doubtlessly they’ll be standing over the meth heads & dope growers of which there’ll be no shortage in a small isolated settlement.

Could be a winning tactic but I doubt it.

Nasska, the way I see it, is that Mr Phillips has made Plod look a bunch of inefficient fools and by carrying out this expensive, futile exercise, they are hoping to save some face. Plod have not been able to serve Phillips with any Notice to attend Court on any of their trumped up Charges, like “Wasting Police Time” after the 2021 failed search for him or any of the Child Custody Charges they claim he is facing, or the alleged ANZ Bank robbery charge in Te Kuiti or the alleged robbery of the Piopio 4 Square. All of these make Plod look worse and less efficient than Doxon of Dick Green.

As I said in my earlier post there will be a lot of people seeking this reward and claiming bullshit. Read about the revelations from the Okoriorie Hotel and Pools. The tart who claimed she saw Phillips and his family there. well you make up your mind.

As a former County Clerk and then in the top tier management of a District Council it saddens me to see the changes that have happened since 1989. One of the reasons I resigned out of it in 2000 was the increasing frustration of what was coming down from Government and the ever increasing rules and regulations that was isolating Councils from the public.
My present area is still small enough were the view expressed by Trotter is not quite the norm – but I suspect it is ever creeping towards that.

This is why the Greens want to get elected onto councils. To them it’s a career option, and once they get in they’re very hard to get rid of. They don’t have to worry about working because all their mates are already ensconced in backroom jobs and they’re all singing from the same song sheet.This gives them plenty of time to be an activist, slow down anything useful and generally make a nuisance of themselves at our expense.

‘The State of Queensland | Pauline Hanson’s Please Explain’

Although, of course, it’s aimed at an Australian audience, I’ve posted this week’s Pauline Hanson cartoon here, because of the apparent similarities between what is currently happening in Queensland and what we’re experiencing in lil’ old New Zild.

Enjoy,

Ed., nasska, wg, a mad crazy world.

And how all the mainstream media cover up..
Note how the British PM Rishi Sunak & the French President Macron, ‘toadies’ also contribute to the cover up.

The Emperor has No clothes, and the real indictment was not on the stupid Emperor, but on all the people that went along with it.

Just as Climate Change, Covid directly from Bats, Vaccine to destroy immune systems, Safe Puberty Blockers, MMT Magic Money Trees economics, Increased GDP per Global Open Borders, etc. etc..

These days those people would push the boy who spoke up, under the nearest bus so that they can “cooo” up to the Emperor.

That seems to the way those valleys are formed.

The height of that is unreal, though a camera lense may seem to add to things or distort just how steep that drop was.
What also seems amazing in the last few seconds, there seemed to be nothing left on the slope.
And possibly most it went on even further down.

One may guess a survivor, or was it just a live camera stream recovery?

I see Farage’s Reform party has punted the Conservatives into third place.

Poll shows Reform Party overtakes Conservatives in UK election with 19%, Conservatives at 18%, while Labour leads with 37%.

The First past the Post (FPP) can give very distorted results.

In 2015 in UK Farage’s UKIP got 12.6% of votes and 1 seat of 650 seats
Lib Dems got 8% and 8 seats
The Scottish National Party got 4.7% and 56 seats with Wacko Sturgeon in charge.

This is the lottery
UKIP got nearly 3 times as many votes as SNP, but SNP got 56 times the number of seats !!

The cookie crumbles in strange ways
Conservatives got an absolute majority (330 of 650 seats) with a mere 36% of the vote.
Then blew it with 5 PMs in 7 years !!

I wonder what the other department is, or, will be.

The Government will rewrite the country’s gun laws as part of its planned firearms reforms.

“It provides a unique opportunity to take a systematic and considered approach to our laws, in a way that hasn’t been done in over 40 years. Rather than the rushed ‘government-knows-best’ approach that we have seen in the past, we will be consulting with New Zealanders to allow their views to be heard.”

McKee said the firearms registry would be reviewed and the Firearms Safety Authority would be transferred from police to another government department.

So they are going to spend a fortune on consultants and consult on everything.
this is kicking the can down the road !

Didn’t we criticize this when Liebour did this is 2018 ?
More than a year to ‘review’ the speed limits then change them all on 1 July 2025, next year, anyway!!
WOFT.
Just set the date for 1 October 2024 so it is all sorted by Xmas.
The councils will have to find money in the 12 months to 30 June 2025 budget anyway; to change the signage and gazette it.
Just Fkg DO IT

It s not like the car-hating cunts consulted with us to lower the speeds. And they were based on lies. No statically significant change to lives saved .
No acknowledgement of drink driving, drugs, other impairments, poor driver skills, cyclist actions, shit road surfaces, inattention etc as the cause of accidents.
Just a fake focus on speed. Lazy and dishonest.

Bugger the consulting with these pricks. Never negotiate with terr//orists (what these car haters are)
——————

I cant see much difference from liebour except the reason behind it.

A. liebour were completely unprepared for goo-mint in 2017/18 so set up these stalling ‘inquiries’ to cover up their lies and Big Talk

B. Notional are doing it to to stall what was promised by ACT/NZF and some of their stuff.

Russian Yasen-Class Nuclear Submarine “Kazan” Along With 3 Warships Arrive in Havana, Cuba

The USA provoked Russia by moving NATO ever closer, including inside Ukraine. Now we see Russia provoking NATO by moving a nuclear capable fleet into position just a few miles from the USA coast. This follows the recent EU election where one of the key messages from the crushing of the pro-war leftists, was an EU citizenry rebuking the possibility of war with Russia.

EU to Surrender Russian Assets to Ukraine

Ukraine will receive $1.6 billion in frozen Russian assets this July, according to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen who spoke at the Ukraine Recovery Conference 2024 on June 11. She stated that 90% of stolen Russian funds will go directly to defense, while the other 10% will be put toward the reconstruction effort. “My friends we have always said that Russia must be held accountable for its crimes and now we make Russia pay,” von der Leyen said.

In 2023, a Wall Street Journal investigation revealed that Ariane de Rothschild had more than a dozen meetings with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.[36] The bank initially denied that she had met with him, but later admitted that Rothschild “met with Epstein as part of her normal duties at the bank between 2013 and 2019”

Now do NZ.

The Stanford Internet Observatory, responsible for COVID-19 and 2020 election censorship, is being shut down.

The DHS outsourced censorship to the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP), comprised of four organizations: the Stanford Internet Observatory, the University of Washington’s Center for an Informed Public, Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab, and Graphika.

During the 2020 election:

•120 analysts monitored 15 tech platforms
•22 Million tweets labeled “misinformation”
•Entire “misinformation narratives” targeted for platform-wide throttling

The EIP claimed every “repeat spreader of election misinformation” was a Trump supporter.

The cancelers are being canceled.

Three people have been arrested after a police officer was hit by a car and the driver shot at an Āwhitu address.

Counties Manukau District Superintendent Shanan Gray said the men, aged between 30 and 40, have been charged with manufacturing methamphetamine.

“They will appear in the Manukau District Court today,” he said.

“The 37-year-old injured man remains in a stable condition in hospital.”

A man who escaped into the bush is still at large, police said.

Good point.

The Taxpayers’ Union is calling on the government to axe all taxpayer funding for films and direct that money into Pharmac instead following reports that the Film Commission spent $88 million on film subsidies that generated just $14 million in box office revenue since 2020.

Apparently, Albanese wanting to ban social media for children up to the age of 16 is due to older, more awake influencers swaying the kids into what the Government deems ‘wrong think’. It’s actually ‘right think’, and it challenges the kids to think for themselves. Can’t have that now, can we?

while i dont agree with the reasoning behind wanting to ban it, it would however be hugely beneficial if it were banned for under 16s.
social media is ruining 2 going on 3 generations of kids, turns them into narcisists, degenerates and woke fucktards.
