Regarding the 2nd picture, I had a friend who could have easily been prone to that. His head would jerk every time he saw a pretty woman. I’m surprised he didn’t suffer from whiplash. He was terrifying to be in a car with.
When I was a teenager I was walking my bike along the footpath. Had such a good look at a passing young woman that I tripped over my bike and fell on the ground. My mates thought it was hilarious.
I get the feeling that the parties on the left dont realise us net tax payers are at breaking point . Currently we are paying for the majority and ourselves to have sub standard health care , substandard education and what is fast becoming third world infrastructure by the way of poor quality R&M . The capital and knowledge flight from NZ is going to be huge if Luxon doesnt grow a pair and refuse to answer shit like social media ban vs rates cap questions . Unfortunately for us I think that may be an impossible ask.
To me it’s more about unsustainable levels of immigration affecting my ability to get ahead. That and the government’s inability and seeming unwillingness to prevent NZ from sleepwalking into becoming an ethno-Marxist banana republic.
I’ll hit Aussie in the next couple of weeks. Can’t. Fucking. Wait.
I’ve been more focused on getting sorted to go, rather than getting a job lined up, TBH, so hopefully that’ll work out. My wife probably won’t let me starve. 🙂
Sadly the western world is in the grip of a socialist agenda of MANAGED ECONOMIC DECLINE we suffer until it HURTS. Then “they” will Build Back Better– how they want it. Governments borrowing $billions and still spending with largess expanding the ‘public service’, showering funds on maori (again with nothing to show for it), wasting $millions on contracting and reports that get shelved and go nowhere, Blow out the cost of a tiny wee train set in Auckland, expanding more and more government and regulations without achieving much. Do you feel better off?
$30 billion extra spent and nothing to show for it. Decline in every sector of our lives.and still without any improvement for all their promises. You can fool some of the people some of the time but you can’t fool everyone. WAKE UP.
It’s the only explanation for all western countries being run with apparent economic incompetents following the same economic plan at the same time. The march through the institutions and infiltration of government bureaucracy has been achieved.
Battern down the hatches sailors, it’s going to get rough.
Canada trades 75% of its goods with the US while the US trades only 14% with Canada. Why has Canada has started a trade war with America? Carney is betting on his WEF “stake-holder” strategy having a better hand to negotiate when the US republicans’ lose the mid-terms.
One only has to watch the shipping in the St. Mary’s River and the Bridges in Detroit to know that.
Carney has probably never been that far across Canada.
They have just approved 6 new Icebreakers. Algoma Steel will make the plates for that, Canadian-owned but uses coal and ore and other stuff all from the Great Lakes area owned by the USA, and shipped by various ships, including their own. Two of which are currently tied to a wharf waiting for something to do at the Soo Locks.
i wonder if their social media ban will take 3 yrs to implement like their rates cap does?
gives plenty of time to tinker, jiggle and ditch or make it useless dosent it. until then councils only have to “consider” a 4% rise/cap, we all know the time spent considering that could be measured in nanoseconds before double digit rate rises get rushed through.
bunch of fucking cunts
The internet is not single file, like sheep being put through the sheep drench, or docking lambs.
Trying to implement the ban will be worse than herding cats.
What children do in the privacy of their home is their business.
If they are concerned about harm, how about stopping ramming gender shit down children’s throats in schools. The White House has quite rightly called it child abuse.
It’s the do gooders trying to impose their view of the world onto everyone else, just like Patricia Bartlett! It’s only their view, everyone is entitled to their own. Unless you are the Christchurch shooter, then no one knows what his word view, because of one bitches view!
Feck we are getting some rain out of this weather system , it feels like southland up here , the rain is so bloody wet you cant even stay dry in a proper rain jacket
Enjoy the deluge, not going to be so nice for you guys when the predicted southerly storm hits. It’s going to get icy. You guys down south are used to that at this time of the year. Get the lambs somewhere warm. 🥶

22° back in aus, they just got another 20mm rain so its pretty much enough to get a good finish now, 50mm total for august. looks like its gunna be a thumper harvest
Meet National’s Auckland Central candidate Candace Kinser, the Texan polo-playing businesswoman taking on Chlöe Swarbrick.
High-achieving Texan Kiwi businesswoman Candace Kinser has taken to the campaign trail with gusto from her Ponsonby Rd campaign office since becoming National’s candidate for Auckland Central in May.
Kinser, 53, is a familiar face across Auckland’s business, charitable and social worlds, as well as being ensconced in the polo world as the owner of a team called Tailshot.
Standing in the November general election against Green Party co-leader and incumbent MP Chlöe Swarbrick, Kinser tells Society Insider that Auckland Central needs an MP who can move comfortably between different worlds while remaining focused on results.
“Auckland Central is home to residents, students, entrepreneurs, hospitality workers, artists, apartment owners, new migrants and some of New Zealand’s most important institutions,” she says.
“It deserves a representative with enthusiasm, judgment, commercial experience and genuine affection for the people who make the city work.”
“I have spent much of my career helping other people’s dreams become viable organisations, successful companies or valuable public initiatives.”
In her governance roles, Kinser says she oversaw more than a billion dollars’ worth of mergers and acquisitions.
Her business network includes a few multimillionaire entrepreneurs, including investor Guy Haddleton, Zeil founder Anna Mowbray, Tend co-founder Cecilia Robinson, and Perpetual Guardian founder Andrew Barnes.
Kinser has also worked with, and formed friendships with, former Prime Minister Sir John Key and former Cabinet ministers Steven Joyce and Judith Collins. She was also pictured at the New Zealand Fashion Week Opening Night alongside Deputy Prime Minister and Act leader David Seymour.
““I have spent much of my career helping other people’s dreams become viable” Yes well the National Party have certainly stopped all the 2023 electors dreams from becoming reality so not sure why you are standing for them.
Iconic ‘Rocky Horror’ actor Tim Curry diesTim Curry, a character actor who created a gallery of delicious, very loony villains for stage and screen, including Dr. Frank-N-Furter in“The Rocky Horror Picture Show” and the smug concierge in “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York,” has died. He was 80.
Now I would have thought my old Katikati neighbour, Richard O’Brien wrote the part of Dr Frank-N-Furter in 1973, especially for Tim Curry for the London stage version of the “Rocky Horror Show” seeing as how Richard did write the Musical and Film adaptation.
RO’B wrote it but it is hard to think of anyone other than Tim Curry ever being a better Rocky – he was a true character actor.
It’s getting a bit depressing when all those ‘adults’ I admire are falling off the perch one after another.
‘Time bomb in your chest’: Cancer screening plan that could save 25 lives a week sits on Health Minister’s desk
Lung cancer survivor Sue Sharp describes the disease as having a “time bomb in your chest”.
It is a fitting description as lung cancer is often fatal – diagnosed late, when there is nothing that can be done.
But Sharp was able to survive it, thanks to getting on a trial of a lung cancer screening programme.
Meta has agreed to pay up to US$16.7 billion ($29b) to settle a landmark legal case alleging it deliberately made its social media apps addictive for children.
The owner of Facebook and Instagram agreed on Wednesday to settle a lawsuit brought by 29 US states claiming that it had harmed children for years while concealing the truth about the risks of social media.
The settlement means that Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg will not have to take the stand to give evidence, avoiding any potential embarrassment.
Under the terms of the deal, Meta will be required to set default daily time limits and night-time blocks for teenage users of its apps.
It will also be forced to enhance its age verification checks to prevent younger children from accessing its websites and establish additional tools to help parents protect their kids online.
WHAT ABOUT REDDIT AND SO MANY OTHERS, INCLUDING GROK, CHATGP AND SO ON?
Under the deal, about 70% of the US$16.7b settlement (US$12.7b) will be paid out to the US states over a 10-year period.
The remaining 30% (US$5.3b) will only be paid if Meta’s main rivals YouTube and TikTok agree to introduce similar safety measures and also pay a combined US$5.3b to US states.
seriously, the guys a whinging fucking woke douchebag.
“i voted national, i didnt vote for seymour to have this much power”…. hey dumbfuck, 75% of nz didnt vote for national to have so much power either ya fucking fucktard.
hes been getting all barred up about top so im assuming he believes it would be ok for HIS preferred 5 or 6% party to have huge power in changing the country in a very drastic way.
the guys a fucking piece of shit, hes a whingey and opinionated as helen clark. they both need to fuck off and die
SB, in the 1990’s this Whinging Tosser was a client of mine, a horrible little man, I must add.
He claims he Voted National both times in the last Election. Really? Can he prove or verify that, or is he making that claim to justify his Opinion piece?
a client ay…. were you a rent boy in a past life hooli? 🤣
hes a massive flip flopper, he was cindys biggest fan until her and chippy ignored him on the covid rat tests. iirc he got special miq treatment too, as in no miq hotel and allowed to isolate at home… no peasant status for him and his rich and corrupt mates.
his epic butthurt over not bowing down to his greatness in covid knowledge lead him to spruik for the nats last election but now obviously this govt also refuse to bow down to his greatness and knowledge in everything so hes got all butthurt again.
im guessing once top refuse to give him a spot on the board after the election he’ll spit the dummy with them too.
Do you trust this man?
1 Abandoned his wife after a miscarriage
2 Lied about side effects that went on to injure and disable thousands of people.

I see that the new model doesn’t have a chin bullbar and Hipkins is distracted, but then he’s already proved he’s easily distracted by his little head.
climate change will most certainly be blamed for the glacier collapse that caused it.
but yea its a shit happens thing, very little warning and the speed that thing was travelling gave the poor bastards fuck all of a chance.
did you see the before and after shots of the valley walls? it fair scoured the place out, amazing how high it got.
Same as Esk Valley and some of the others in the Hawke’s Bay.
We just didn’t get real-life videos of that, only the aftermath.
Seen rivers in the Motu on steep, steep country that fill with water and behave the same without the breakout.
Most of the southern lakes were created by seismic induced landslides blocking valleys. Sometimes they last & sometimes they don’t.
Prior to its last major eruption Lake Taupo used to drain out to the Hauraki Gulf until a subsequent breakout of its waters diverted the overflow into the channel now known as the Waikato River.
pretty much all those folk on that street where it crashed overtop of the buildings will be dead. the waters one thing but the rocks and debris just make it go from little chance of survival to zero chance.
#BreakingNews Update: Police say two people are dead. Schools are in lockdown, roads have been closed as a major emergency incident response in underway in multiple locations in South Auckland. This is a dynamic and unfolding situation and we will bring you more information as it comes to hand in the comments.
Police are responding to an unfolding serious incident in Wattle Downs this afternoon.
At about 1.45pm, emergency services responded to reports of a woman unresponsive at an address on Gambare Place.
Sadly, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
During a search of the property Police have located a man who was also pronounced deceased.
Cordons are in place at Mahia Road and schools in the immediate area were advised to lockdown.
Police advise all members of the public to avoid the area.
Further information will be released once it becomes available. The Police Eagle helicopter has been doing loops in a couple of different locations over South Auckland.
We have been sent some images that are too graphic to show, they are of someone laying facedown surrounded by emergency responders.
Multiple schools are in lockdown including
James Cook High.
All About Children Childcare on Mahia Rd
Leabank Primary School
Te Haikura a Kiwa (High School)
Armed Police are Volante Avenue, in Auckland’s Manurewa with eye witnesses being told that they should lock their doors and stay inside.
Armed Police can also be seen under a Takanini overpass on the motorway
Complete over reaction….. And people’s daily lives being unnecessarily interrupted. Pick up the stiffs, chuck them in a ute and pour bleach on the mess.. Ferals killing ferals. But no, go to show we do something for a living other than speed trapping…..
The Kiwi cops are tied by judicial precedent which makes them very wary about disclosing anything that may prejudice their chances of getting a conviction. Take a scenario where a rapist kills a couple of people & does a runner;
1) In the USA, the local sheriff will go live on 6pm TV news naming the suspect, showing photos or him & his victims & tell everyone about his priors. He’s rightly or wrongly convicted in the eyes of the public months before the case gets to court.
2) In NZ the cops refuse all info, even the gender of the suspect & pussyfoot around all info that might identify him regardless of circumstance or danger he presents to the public. Everything is secret squirrel until the case goes to trial so that a potential jury can’t be accused of bias.
Two ends of the horseshoe both out of touch with reality.
yet if they done that and there was some nutter on a killing spree youd be one of the first fuckwits to criticise it. pigs are gunna pig but theyre fucked if they do and fucked if they dont when it comes to keeping know it all south african fuckwits happy.
Let’s be careful with “the Doll”. Tarquin still hasn’t mastered the GPS system & taking out IAASB may involve a litany of collateral damage that would make Pol Pot seem an amateur.
You should stay within your field of expertise & issue an anathema. I understand that it works a bit like a fatwa but with more rituals as befits an agent of the Holy See. There’s even the potential for a bit of tit for tat:
#. “”In 1054, an anathema was issued by Rome against the Eastern Patriarch who then issued another one against the cardinal who delivered it”.
As Wikipedia suggests there’s plenty of room for innovation & your anathema can be tailored to fit the circumstances:
#. “In the dogmatic canons of all the ecumenical councils recognized by the Catholic Church that use the word anathema, the word “anathema” signifies exclusion from the society of the faithful because of heresy. Documents of the 9th and 12th centuries distinguish anathema from excommunication, a distinction later clarified by using the term “major excommunication” for exclusion from the society of the faithful, and “minor excommunication”.
If all else fails I suggest that you contact Helen Clark for guidance in the black arts.
In Pravda (formerly known as the Wairarapa Times Age) there is a front page article in which the wastrels of the Masterton District Council bemoan the proposed 4% cap on annual rate increases.
Most of the waffle is an orchestrated sook about reigning in infrastructure developments & the inevitability of the council having to “restrict services”. One prophesy of doom from the Masterton Town Clerk Chief Executive, one Kym Fell, did however catch my interest.
#. “Things our community values – community grants, events, beautification, & other discretionary services – could be pushed to the back of the queue”.
The back of the queue, through the nearest shredder & into the nearest waste bin is where these exemplars of reckless extravagance should be heading.
Rubbish, reticulation, recreation reserves & roads are all we need.
Seymour has been lisiening to ed. David Seymour
I love our country. I don’t want our isolation to make us a backwater. We should be the frontier of the free world.
That’s what our announcement today about cryptocurrencies is for, making sure New Zealand is a place where having the newest technologies is normal, not something that will happen after every other country already has them.
It should be natural to use the latest and the best in our country, or at least have the choice to if that’s what you want. We certainly shouldn’t be held back from competing with the world, and enjoying the best it has to offer by our own government.
Today’s policy announcement by Nicole McKee at the New Zealand cryptocurrency conference is about making cryptocurrency payments an acceptable way to do business and invest in New Zealand, for those who’d like to.
At the moment cryptocurrencies are seen as an asset, instead of a currency, by the inland revenue department. That means somebody who buys a coffee with bitcoin, say, is seen as disposing of a real asset. They have to pay tax on any change of value in the currency since they acquired it.
If you buy some Ethereum, and it goes up in value you are taxed on the gain when you sell it. That’s like being taxed because the New Zealand dollar strengthened against other currencies. ACT’s policy would let people use cryptocurrencies for buying and selling everyday items without paying extra taxes, just like they were using New Zealand dollars, Australian dollars, or any other currency.
It would let people hold cryptocurrency, and if you hold it for more than one year, you are not liable for taxes on any increase in value.
Over 100,000 New Zealanders already use cryptocurrencies. That number will only grow the job of the New Zealand government, is to make sure we’re not in the way of people that want to do new and innovative things that might make life better.
In other words, this is how we unlock New Zealand’s potential, by cutting red tape and deleting stupid rules.
Happy for you to vote for him, but I think we will all decline the other offer. Thanks.
Try Hipkins or one of the Greens, and there might be a few in the Nats. .
Most voters vote with their wallet. I am no different. It does not make sense to be taxed at your tax rate just because an asset you hold goes up in value. But the same works in reverse when it drops in value. I hope they don’t hurry to introduce it until after next April. I am sitting on a huge loss that has been accepted by the IRD.
Regarding the 2nd picture, I had a friend who could have easily been prone to that. His head would jerk every time he saw a pretty woman. I’m surprised he didn’t suffer from whiplash. He was terrifying to be in a car with.
It was the chicks that ran off the road when they saw me.
Hooting from the apple tree then?

I get the feeling that the parties on the left dont realise us net tax payers are at breaking point .

I’ll hit Aussie in the next couple of weeks. Can’t. Fucking. Wait.
Australia also has unsustainable levels of immigration, including violent African gangs and thousands of muzzrats. Good luck.
True, but there’re still more opportunities than here and anywhere in Aussie (even Melbourne), has fewer miserable, Communist cunts than Wellington!
Wish you well FJA. I hope you have a great job jacked up.
Thanks very much, Ross12.
I’ve been more focused on getting sorted to go, rather than getting a job lined up, TBH, so hopefully that’ll work out. My wife probably won’t let me starve. 🙂

There’s a lot more about her, a Collins, key and Joyce fan and so on.
Even the photo looks like a younger version of Judith Collins – she sounds a bit of a name dropper.
““I have spent much of my career helping other people’s dreams become viable” Yes well the National Party have certainly stopped all the 2023 electors dreams from becoming reality so not sure why you are standing for them.

seriously, the guys a whinging fucking woke douchebag.
“i voted national, i didnt vote for seymour to have this much power”…. hey dumbfuck, 75% of nz didnt vote for national to have so much power either ya fucking fucktard.
hes been getting all barred up about top so im assuming he believes it would be ok for HIS preferred 5 or 6% party to have huge power in changing the country in a very drastic way.
the guys a fucking piece of shit, hes a whingey and opinionated as helen clark. they both need to fuck off and die
SB, in the 1990’s this Whinging Tosser was a client of mine, a horrible little man, I must add.
He claims he Voted National both times in the last Election. Really? Can he prove or verify that, or is he making that claim to justify his Opinion piece?
a client ay…. were you a rent boy in a past life hooli? 🤣
hes a massive flip flopper, he was cindys biggest fan until her and chippy ignored him on the covid rat tests. iirc he got special miq treatment too, as in no miq hotel and allowed to isolate at home… no peasant status for him and his rich and corrupt mates.
his epic butthurt over not bowing down to his greatness in covid knowledge lead him to spruik for the nats last election but now obviously this govt also refuse to bow down to his greatness and knowledge in everything so hes got all butthurt again.
im guessing once top refuse to give him a spot on the board after the election he’ll spit the dummy with them too.
Nah SB, but I had a seriously good business with a staff of 105 great people when I sold it.
wicked, good shit mate.
I see Auckland is still busy choking off the country.
36 flights cancelled and delayed as morning fog blankets AucklandPassengers are urged to check with their airline whether their flights are affected.
Yet in USA, Russia and Europe, in winter, they fly virtually regardless of the weather…..
Yeah, but ‘elf and safety..’elf and safety…” wont someone think of the children” !!!!!

Nice page, worth following if you do facebook occasionally.
I see that the new model doesn’t have a chin bullbar and Hipkins is distracted, but then he’s already proved he’s easily distracted by his little head.
I wonder if he even has one of those.
Can you confirm its existence?
He sits down to pee..so sans penis.

holy fuck, alot of those nepalese folk didnt stand a bloody chance. what an unreal flash flood, absolutely phenomenal amount of energy behind it.
im guessing the climate doomers will be making the most of the disaster.
Unfortunately this happens in mountains. No one really to blame. Shit happens. But sad for those caught up in it.
climate change will most certainly be blamed for the glacier collapse that caused it.
but yea its a shit happens thing, very little warning and the speed that thing was travelling gave the poor bastards fuck all of a chance.
did you see the before and after shots of the valley walls? it fair scoured the place out, amazing how high it got.
Same as Esk Valley and some of the others in the Hawke’s Bay.
We just didn’t get real-life videos of that, only the aftermath.
Seen rivers in the Motu on steep, steep country that fill with water and behave the same without the breakout.
Most of the southern lakes were created by seismic induced landslides blocking valleys. Sometimes they last & sometimes they don’t.
Prior to its last major eruption Lake Taupo used to drain out to the Hauraki Gulf until a subsequent breakout of its waters diverted the overflow into the channel now known as the Waikato River.

Five Kiwis missing. Told to contact family in NZ if they are alive.
A Kiwi treking company has lost one of their guides (Nepalese?)
Pretty bad eh. That’s probably one of the worst I’ve ever seen. Poor cnuts.
pretty much all those folk on that street where it crashed overtop of the buildings will be dead. the waters one thing but the rocks and debris just make it go from little chance of survival to zero chance.

#BreakingNews Update: Police say two people are dead. Schools are in lockdown, roads have been closed as a major emergency incident response in underway in multiple locations in South Auckland. This is a dynamic and unfolding situation and we will bring you more information as it comes to hand in the comments.
The Police Eagle helicopter has been doing loops in a couple of different locations over South Auckland.
Police are responding to an unfolding serious incident in Wattle Downs this afternoon.
At about 1.45pm, emergency services responded to reports of a woman unresponsive at an address on Gambare Place.
Sadly, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
During a search of the property Police have located a man who was also pronounced deceased.
Cordons are in place at Mahia Road and schools in the immediate area were advised to lockdown.
Police advise all members of the public to avoid the area.
Further information will be released once it becomes available.
We have been sent some images that are too graphic to show, they are of someone laying facedown surrounded by emergency responders.
Multiple schools are in lockdown including
James Cook High.
All About Children Childcare on Mahia Rd
Leabank Primary School
Te Haikura a Kiwa (High School)
Armed Police are Volante Avenue, in Auckland’s Manurewa with eye witnesses being told that they should lock their doors and stay inside.

Murder-Suicide. Solved it for ya. As ewes were. Carry on…

….. Police said they would search through the night for the person or people they believe are responsible.

Seems the police are looking to pull an all nighter plus helicopter, looking to see what they can flush out.
Complete over reaction….. And people’s daily lives being unnecessarily interrupted. Pick up the stiffs, chuck them in a ute and pour bleach on the mess.. Ferals killing ferals. But no, go to show we do something for a living other than speed trapping…..
Saw propaganda tv report but no description of who the cops are hunting in Sth Auckland.
NZ is getting like the UK. Cops are asking for public assistance in hunting another rapist. He took a train but no description given.
The Kiwi cops are tied by judicial precedent which makes them very wary about disclosing anything that may prejudice their chances of getting a conviction. Take a scenario where a rapist kills a couple of people & does a runner;
1) In the USA, the local sheriff will go live on 6pm TV news naming the suspect, showing photos or him & his victims & tell everyone about his priors. He’s rightly or wrongly convicted in the eyes of the public months before the case gets to court.
2) In NZ the cops refuse all info, even the gender of the suspect & pussyfoot around all info that might identify him regardless of circumstance or danger he presents to the public. Everything is secret squirrel until the case goes to trial so that a potential jury can’t be accused of bias.
Two ends of the horseshoe both out of touch with reality.
Wattle Downs is not a feral area – at least it never used to be.
yet if they done that and there was some nutter on a killing spree youd be one of the first fuckwits to criticise it. pigs are gunna pig but theyre fucked if they do and fucked if they dont when it comes to keeping know it all south african fuckwits happy.
Tarquin where is that doll of yours….
Let’s be careful with “the Doll”. Tarquin still hasn’t mastered the GPS system & taking out IAASB may involve a litany of collateral damage that would make Pol Pot seem an amateur.
You should stay within your field of expertise & issue an anathema. I understand that it works a bit like a fatwa but with more rituals as befits an agent of the Holy See. There’s even the potential for a bit of tit for tat:
#. “”In 1054, an anathema was issued by Rome against the Eastern Patriarch who then issued another one against the cardinal who delivered it”.
As Wikipedia suggests there’s plenty of room for innovation & your anathema can be tailored to fit the circumstances:
#. “In the dogmatic canons of all the ecumenical councils recognized by the Catholic Church that use the word anathema, the word “anathema” signifies exclusion from the society of the faithful because of heresy. Documents of the 9th and 12th centuries distinguish anathema from excommunication, a distinction later clarified by using the term “major excommunication” for exclusion from the society of the faithful, and “minor excommunication”.
If all else fails I suggest that you contact Helen Clark for guidance in the black arts.
Wasn’t Clark’s ‘specialist’ Heather Simpson?
They both stirred the cauldron until the Mad Queen joined the coven.
Tail of mouse
Eye of rat
Head of newt

And leg of frog.
If they got access to the Catholic clergy they could add choirboy’s underpants & hash smoke from a thurible.
Unbeatable! 🙂
In Pravda (formerly known as the Wairarapa Times Age) there is a front page article in which the wastrels of the Masterton District Council bemoan the proposed 4% cap on annual rate increases.
Most of the waffle is an orchestrated sook about reigning in infrastructure developments & the inevitability of the council having to “restrict services”. One prophesy of doom from the Masterton
Town ClerkChief Executive, one Kym Fell, did however catch my interest.#. “Things our community values – community grants, events, beautification, & other discretionary services – could be pushed to the back of the queue”.
The back of the queue, through the nearest shredder & into the nearest waste bin is where these exemplars of reckless extravagance should be heading.
Rubbish, reticulation, recreation reserves & roads are all we need.
Perhaps others have a different view than an OAP at the end of his ability to do things.

I love our country. I don’t want our isolation to make us a backwater. We should be the frontier of the free world.
That’s what our announcement today about cryptocurrencies is for, making sure New Zealand is a place where having the newest technologies is normal, not something that will happen after every other country already has them.
It should be natural to use the latest and the best in our country, or at least have the choice to if that’s what you want. We certainly shouldn’t be held back from competing with the world, and enjoying the best it has to offer by our own government.
Today’s policy announcement by Nicole McKee at the New Zealand cryptocurrency conference is about making cryptocurrency payments an acceptable way to do business and invest in New Zealand, for those who’d like to.
At the moment cryptocurrencies are seen as an asset, instead of a currency, by the inland revenue department. That means somebody who buys a coffee with bitcoin, say, is seen as disposing of a real asset. They have to pay tax on any change of value in the currency since they acquired it.
If you buy some Ethereum, and it goes up in value you are taxed on the gain when you sell it. That’s like being taxed because the New Zealand dollar strengthened against other currencies.
ACT’s policy would let people use cryptocurrencies for buying and selling everyday items without paying extra taxes, just like they were using New Zealand dollars, Australian dollars, or any other currency.
It would let people hold cryptocurrency, and if you hold it for more than one year, you are not liable for taxes on any increase in value.
Over 100,000 New Zealanders already use cryptocurrencies. That number will only grow the job of the New Zealand government, is to make sure we’re not in the way of people that want to do new and innovative things that might make life better.
In other words, this is how we unlock New Zealand’s potential, by cutting red tape and deleting stupid rules.
Fuck me, I will have to vote for the useless prick after that announcement.
Happy for you to vote for him, but I think we will all decline the other offer. Thanks.
Try Hipkins or one of the Greens, and there might be a few in the Nats. .
me too, especially after the scrapping climate shit announcement…
give it a day or 2 and the butthurt will return to you guys and youll go “bUt tHe vAx!!!”
Let’s not go overboard !
Most voters vote with their wallet. I am no different. It does not make sense to be taxed at your tax rate just because an asset you hold goes up in value. But the same works in reverse when it drops in value. I hope they don’t hurry to introduce it until after next April. I am sitting on a huge loss that has been accepted by the IRD.
Thanks to post on Good Oil. Dr Campbell discusses a paper on a big German study which shows 86+% PCR tests done to test for Covid were false positives
