Or a leftie and a righty, see they can’t even synch their spelling, rightie doesn’t look right and lefty only so so.
Wasn’t suicide a priority?
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2019/07/david-clark-should-step-down-over-suicide-rates-maori-council.html?ref=ves-nextauto
It’s all relative. If priorities are on a numerical scale, for example, 1 is lowest priority and 10 is highest priority, 0 is still a priority.
Shame on those guys that handed in their guns.
Were there any criminal looking types? or wre they all nice old white guys?
Well their details were recorded so they’ve now gone on the alt-right, hate-speech, white supremacist list for further persecution.
I’d bet that now that socialist Cindy’s
Stazipolice know where they live, they’ll be subject of raids to make sure that they haven’t held any weapons over. So, they’ll be paying for their naivete.Smart guys. Had the taxpayer refund their money on the sporting goods they no longer wanted. One guy got back 13k which he was never going to get anywhere else. Buy a nice holiday with that.
Wrong wrong and wrong, because if it was about making NZ a safer place they would have handed them in for nothing.
Bet they vote labour.
Forever on the police watch list. Do you think that they will ever get a knock on the door by a dozen armed police to search their place?

Poor Geronimo! It’s not his fault.
Send him home!
What a great idea.

If there was a Hell then the two faced hypocrite should rot in it. John Banks was the religious arsehole who used his radio show to preach against abortion. The Holier than thou prick, like the rest of them, knew best.
Until it was revealed that he tried to get the mother of his son to abort the foetus & even obtained the drugs for her to use. Then it took a hearing in the High Court for him to acknowledge his son.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11915586
I have little truck for any religionists but John Banks could walk under a snake’s belly on stilts!
He was/is also an anti gun zealot and has not been forgiven or his time as police minister forgotten by many of us.
Yes an interesting irony that Banks went to Russia to adopt what ended up as three kids and all along he had one he would not – and still has not- acknowledge.
He allowed another guy to unwittingly pay child support for his own kid. The other guy paid for 15 years.
The police went bad while he was Police Minister in the 1990s.
The anti-good citizen stance we see today they have today fermented during that time and has reached maturity.
As Police Minister he illegally used his cellphone on a commercial aircraft.
Banks talks crap about poverty growing up but he did alright.
His father was a crook and wee John made good money going around collecting empties from the sly grog houses which were prevalent when legitimate pubs closed at 6 pm prior to 1968.
He knew where the grog houses were because his crime family was involved. He even handled the machine gun used in the Bassett Road machine gun double murders (1963) because it was taken to his (father’s) house.
http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/9477150/Bassett-Road-Mixed-memories
He is a really weird guy if you meet him in person.
He used to park his fancy car (Ferrari I think it was) on Queen St in front of the Town Hall when Auckland City Council Mayor 2001-04 then get staff to cancel the parking tickets. He used to rant a bit that it was his right and he did not want to drive inside to his allocated car park.
In 2010 he stood for Mayor of the newly spewed out Akl Super Shitty but did not really campaign.
His adopted son was the one who egged on the young James Webster (16) to drink alcohol excessively to the point of death.
http://www.stuff.co.nz/auckland/4909083/Plea-to-parents-after-Kings-boys-booze-death
He was involved with that event in 2010 re his adopted son and did not try hard for the mayoralty and Asian Invasion rooter Brown got in.
He may have been better to have withdrawn and let someone else who could focus have a crack.
He was virtually invisible during that campaign.
We see with his not acknowledging his biological son that despite his sanctimonious hand rubbing he is a master hypocrite. All his crocodile tears in parliament about how he grew up without a father and how tough that was shows he really is a Tusitala.
Banks tells us he believes the Bible literally and that the world was created in 6 days.
Who knows with him what is really true?
He and Don Brash were directors of Huljich Wealth Management where there was crooked goings on:-
“Huljich Wealth Management was set up in 2007 by Peter Huljich, Act MP Banks and former National Party and former ACT leader Brash.
In 2010, Huljich stepped down as managing director amid mounting criticism he had topped up funds from his personal resources in a way that artificially boosted their performance figures.”
In other words, Peter H. put outside capital in and pretended it was income based on good investment management and therefore performance was overstated.
Peter Huljich took the fall.
Banks and Brash should have gone before the Court as Directors of the company but their political connections got them off.
Next these two went on to the ACT party and Banks stood for a classic liberal Party when his own long term political stance is the opposite of what ACT stood for.
Banks had a helicopter ride to the Dotcom house but, oh yea, he forgot about that. Wait, nah, can’t remember.
Banks did his best Christine Crazy Ford child voice with:
“Oh I don’t remember that… I don’t recall… I can’t recall whether I did or not”
I cant find the audio but Banks was lying through his teeth.
But remember this: John Banks ‘did not come up the river on a cabbage boat’.
You may dislike Kim Dotcom but Banks was telling porkies up the wazoo including about the mayoral campaign donation and the money for the New Year fireworks display and not meeting Dotcom.
Photographic evidence proved him a liar.
Banks actions, omissions, and misdirection here meant he should never hold public office again.
Executive Summary.
-John A. Banks is the son of convicted criminals.
-John Banks is a bible basher today who earned money while at school collecting the empty beer bottles from illegal grog houses and cashing them in. He knew where they were because his father was in the ‘business’.
-John Banks has a son as declared by a NZ court but has refused to acknowledge this. ergo- John Banks does not honour the process of law and the Court system.
-John Banks gets terrible amnesia when asked difficult questions and breaks into little boy voice of :- I don’t recall. I don’t remember..
-John Banks has ethics that makes a sewer rat look like a fine upstanding citizen.
-If you ever think John A. Banks is the answer you had better rephrase the question.
-Last, but not least, John Banks did not come up the river on a cabbage boat.
Now do ardern the liar……..
It must be an absolude bastard going through life no knowing left from right.
My grandchildren have all gone through a stage of not getting their shoes right even 50% of the time
My guess is they will learn a lot quicker than some others, if only because grandma is reasonably clued up – although not always right. 😉
Going on her comments here, she is more right than you ever will be.
More correct? Probably, almost definitely.
Kimbo, is that you Kimbo?
If I ever become a totally fraudulent, know-nothing, arse-hole god-botherer I’ll top myself!
You would think guessing would get it right 50% of the time, mind you, shoes are almost indistinguishable shape-wise now, is that a good analogy for our political landscape, kids gumboots from the Warehouse?
You could be a nice granny and label them discretly. Maybe little feet with toes going the right way inside. Felt tip might not last long, but they might remember by then!
They are all patterned or black and yes have done so, but they go through them quite quickly. At one stage though, rural, semi rural school, still have lambs at pets day, red bands of all things were de rigeur, 50$ I think they were according to the daughter in law, he is ten so out of the problematic range, I prefer crocs to gumboots ever since I stood on a paper wasp in my gumboot. The 6 is nearly there and the nearly three started well….some days I think that it is just a wind up.
No eels, caught a male possum, well I think that it was a penis, dead anyway. I had a cat bring me a joey once, alien-looking, naked thing that it was.
My cage trap just ended up being a snack cage, it seems to work the wrong way. But the Timm’s is good.
Now they step on the trap step, mine has the hook and the wire set to trip when the apple is pulled.
Gee thanks lol. We all have to face uncomfortable truths sometimes.
I envy Australia their PM
I’m liking Australian PM Scott Morrison more and more, it’s almost like he wants to be a centre-right leader. I think he’s understood that it was the shy ‘tories that helped him pull off the impossible election victory this year and he wants to keep them onside.
Latest. He’s said “Nah! Fuck off” to any attempts to enshrine an Aboriginal “voice to Parliament” (whatever the fuck that load of progressive gobshite is) constitutionally. Once again, I’m betting
Labour LiteNational will be looking as hard as they can in the other direction on this vote-winning call by PM Morrison.It’s been so long, I’d forgotten what a true leader looks like (I bet he’d never put a rag on his head and pulled a long mule-face for the cameras like our donkey PM does).
I love reading your posts DP. A strong voice of reason under the authoritarian regime we find ourselves caught in.
Thank you WG, that’s very kind of you to say that. Right back at you!
She has a new name. Jackboot Jacinda to you please.
I still say” Cindy bin Lying” beats that
They would annex us but they don’t want the dross back. Why is South Africa visa free for us now? I am glad that it isn’t reciprocal but was that their hope?
https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/394330/earthquake-prone-buildings-changes-to-help-provinces
But look at our illustrious travelling companions. The Department has extended the visa – free status to seven countries, including New Zealand, on top of the existing 75 countries. The other countries to join the list are Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Cuba, Ghana and Sao Tome and Principe.
Principe apparently is population 5000 lol. That will help tourism.
More Disgruntled Workers and Employers Seek Mediation to Solve Disputes
https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/114080054/more-disgruntled-workers-and-employers-seek-mediation-to-solve-disputes
“More workers and bosses are seeking help for employment problems and there is a push to make dispute resolution easier to get.
Long waits for mediation and the unregulated nature of the employment disputes industry are also fuelling calls for change.”
More mediation, not less under the COL’s workplace industrial relations. What happened to all that union compatability with business Cindy?
Of course, there should be regulation, migrants getting a lower pass as per. Why do we need all of these problems, just stop migration? No-one is forced to come here, yet we are forced to accommodate them.
The good and bad about our political week.
Quote of the week,Judith Collins ‘just stop beating up our kid’s.’
Stupidity at it’s best, Julie Anne Genter, ‘declares climate change is our generations World War Two.’
Lie of the week Winston couldn’t help himself with two, ‘ we don’t get any credit for lowing the overseas dollar’ and I haven’t raised concerns with Marise Payne about the deportation of NZer’s from Australia despite there Foriegn Minister saying We have know intention of changing our stance on NZer’s who commit crimes being deported.
Then the honesty of our PM is all people want to know is what Airline you used to fly on Holiday with and who pays the bill.
Last in line is Tamati Coffy and the baby is it in NZ best interest for our state TV to produce a program on two Homosexuals and their new baby, I personally would love to see a poll on it to see what Values our Country holds.
So depressing, but so true.
On that subject:Every sucker that fell for this shit deserves their mental illness. In the meantime, Deep Dark Africa and Eurostan are cranking out 6 each or more. Assholes wake up! NZ is not the problem.
https://i.stuff.co.nz/environment/climate-news/113973585/kiwis-suffering-depression-anxiety-and-hopelessness-because-of-climate-change
NZ IS the problem d71, because we allow them to settle here !
“Deep Dark Africa and Eurostan” will never learn how to handle their own population and climate issues as long as NZ (and others) keep taking the problem off their hands !
They are just going to flood the earth with themselves. How many people in Africa even know that the debate exists., or that it is a potential problem. They do what they have always done, breed, it is in our dna, it is just that ‘we’ don’t tend to want to add to the problem, and in doing so we are causing other problems for ourselves and our equally aware offspring.
Our worst nightmare coming true for the Frenchies? May NZ never, ever have this happen…PLEASE!!!
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/07/13/watch-migrants-storm-paris-pantheon-demanding-papers-and-free-housing/
I am constantly amazed that people are still breeding, as the world has only 12 years left according to the climate emergency lovers. I cannot see the point of bringing other poor little children into this world when there is only 12 years left. Isn’t it incredible? Obviously they don’t believe it at all. If they don’t know this is a happening thing, how do they know about the countries that give them and their relations a free ride for life then? Isn’t it interesting this is where they choose to be?
Luckily we take bugger all of them compared to the EU. They just show up over there.
That big deep blue thing has a lot to do with that!
Genter gets the prize for stupidest stupid. WW 2? What a moron. Geeezzz.
Yes but it takes a classic, to beat Whineston!
A TOP Northern Ireland official got £10,000 compensation after complaining he was offended by having to walk past portraits of the Queen and Prince Philip, Parliament has been told.

“Lee Hegarty is said to have claimed the massive payout on human rights grounds – and got a new picture put up of former IRA leader Martin McGuinness meeting Her Majesty.”
Snowflakes everywhere. Truly the world has gone mad.
Not that many here would be surprised with the following: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal was never about the environment but destroying the US economy and bringing in Marxism.

The peasants in Central America would love AOC. She has no real power other than the MSM.
Who knew that AOC is not a real person but a development of a five year old video character? I kid you not, take a look:

Kiwis suffering depression, anxiety and hopelessness because of climate change
https://www.stuff.co.nz/environment/climate-news/113973585/kiwis-suffering-depression-anxiety-and-hopelessness-because-of-climate-change
“Sandy Millar runs a climate-conscious “lens” over all of her decisions.
The Auckland woman doesn’t want to put more carbon into the air so rather than driving to the beach and going for a walk there, she tries to walk in her own neighbourhood. She restricts her purchasing, considers “food miles” and tries to buy second-hand.
“I watch a lot of people on Facebook who are going overseas and think that it would be really nice to experience India or the UK. But I’m uncomfortable doing that in the current climate,” she says.
Millar feels shunning of consumerism has lead to being isolated from her community and admits to feeling lonely.
She finds comfort in having climate conversations with her adult children who hold similar views, but was surprised to find they were considering not having children because they “don’t want to bring them into this world”.
At this point, Millar has not worked out how to resolve her climate anxiety.
“I still feel weighed down by the climate crisis.”
Normally I offer some commentary on the article but in this case even I’m lost for words so you can make up your own mind about some of the basket cases out there.
We’re just watching how infectious religions are at indoctrination; where people will deny their own reality to appease the tenets of their faith.
Imagine, if you will, being a child or teenager and constantly being told that the world is going to end in 12 years or less. Why would you bother getting an education, or do anything positive with your life? If you are from a family that believes this, then you really have no hope for your future. You certainly wouldn’t have your own kids.
These woke companies and individuals who are pushing this shit need to be shunned by all sensible people.
Not long ago it was the year 2100. Then it was 2050. Now 2030 is doomsday. Whatever.
These ‘woke’ snowflakes would never have survived the anxiety of living under the Cold War with the threat of nuclear annihilation of the planet due at any moment. Climate change/emergencies is for pussies.
Well stated! Nuclear weapons actually DO/DID exist. Climate change is propaganda and crystal-ball gazing.
The continued rapid cooling of the earth since WWII is in accord with the increase in global air pollution associated with industrialization, mechanization, urbanization and exploding population.
— Reid Bryson, “Global Ecology; Readings towards a rational strategy for Man”, (1971)
There are ominous signs that the earth’s weather patterns have begun to change dramatically and that these changes may portend a drastic decline in food production—with serious political implications for just about every nation on earth. The drop in food production could begin quite soon… The evidence in support of these predictions has now begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologist are hard-pressed to keep up with it… This [cooling] trend will reduce agricultural productivity for the rest of the century.
— Science writer Peter Gwynne writing in ‘The Cooling World,’ ‘Newsweek’ magazine, April 28, 1975
At the present rate of nitrogen buildup, it’s only a matter of time before light will be filtered out of the atmosphere and none of our land will be usable… If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder by the year 2000. … This is about twice what it would take to put us in an ice age.
— Kenneth E.F. Watt on air pollution and global cooling, speaking on Earth Day 1970
Some more stupendous quotes collected by Peter Cresswell here, another man that stands for individual freedom and liberty.
Also Ed add that to the increasing numbers suffering from GID (Gender Identity Disorder) through the liberal education system there are more dark clouds forming. While noting the recent headline from a recent study: “Queer people are twice as likely to commit suicide.” It might be well time to include sexual orientation in the recorded stats. Meanwhile the MOH seem less that concerned after their comment on the recent release of suicide stats that only reach 2016. Their callousness is well displayed when the say: “The Ministry of Health says overall the rate of suicides remained relatively stable in this 10-year period.” That is 500 plus which are no doubt averaged out for their purpose to be a “stable” figure. Thank goodness for some stability somewhere in their system.
If she really wants to help she should go to India and Nigeria and convince the poor people there t have less children.
And she should go there by rowing boat to save air pollution
Nah, do what happy feet did and swim. Why inflict someone like that on the Nigerians?
So we should encourage Catholics to not use birth control and to mate at every opportunity? Note this Pope though. I thought he was going to be a good choice but I don’t now.
Add Somalia to that list.
She should take that trip to India so she can see real problems with population, air pollution, rubbish, etc on a huge level, rather than worrying about NZ’s tiny footprint. Living in an anxiety bubble is not healthy so she should take the trip. Clarity and sanity will envelope her.
I’m surprised. I know Sandy, she lives a few blocks from us and I’d probably consider her a family friend. In the years we’ve known each-other, not once did she mention climate change or any concern over it from what I can recall. She is a good, kind and helpful person so it’s a bit of a surprise to read that type of article about her. It doesn’t fit with the person I know.
Perhaps she has been misquoted. I hope she reads the article and thinks, really, is that what I am like? And snap out of it.
Or start crying!
Well, it made me depressed reading about it lol.
Getting brainwashed with paranoia. Tell her to change ger reading to better books or go for a walk in the fresh air. clears the mind.
Got her 15 minutes of fame?
Looks like she’s twice the man he is!
Why would a woman bother with a weakling soyboy except for having someone to dominate?
She looks just like Luran Hubbard!
She can do that too!
See what you can do if you eat all your ceral!
Hey youse guys. Hard to keep up with all the great posts.
I’ve been busy and then grandkids came and now I have flu. Real manflu which means real suffering.
At least keeping up with ysb has kept me going .
You know very well that there is no such thing as ‘real man flu’. Another week of school holidays in the wet yo go yet.
Get well soon wiseowl 🙂 my wife and kids have had the flu for a week, but so far I’m all good. Must be the nicotine…
2-3 weeks of the shit. It is not fun and it is not gender friendly it bowls the maidens over as well.
I see 230 people have died in Australia from the flu this season.
Thought it was quite a few.
Well that’s not cricket lol.
Our lot would not know! It’s been swept under the teatowel!
The left have corrupted our language. Being liberal is about individual freedom and responsibility; economic, social and political. They stole that term to help hide their authoritarian, Marxist approach and the right conservatives, a different type of authoritarian, are aiding and abetting in that.
David Seymour is the sole politician in NZ that stands for individual freedom. He’s the only true liberal we have. I’d never put him in a picture like the one above.
Yes, its a bit like Nazi’s being labelled as right wing fascists isn’t it. They were never anything of the kind. They were all about power and control by the state. Marxist socialists.
For those into the freedom of speech issue and proposed hate speech legislation I recommend this podcast discussion with Stephen Franks and Simon O’Connor (Nat MP)

Johnathon Pie’s Rant on Cultural Appropriation

Banking according to tikanga.
https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/114105242/daughter-complains-over-anz-bank-managers-deathbed-visit-to-her-mother
So they should have refused a home visit? I didn’t realise they even did them.
Wai Campbell questioned the bank manager’s qualifications for determining her mother’s competence to make changes to her banking, and also believed he transgressed against Māori custom.
“He entered an indigenous jurisdiction at a time of tapu where there’s spiritual restrictions, where I had prepared a space for my mother in that state of tapu where she’s going to die. He’s come in and invaded that space,” she said.
Has she been cut out of the will or something?
All money accounted for apparently, it must be about Tikanga, I would have thought that it was sensible to put money in another account, wouldn’t that make it available despite probate if there was another signatory?
Especially if they vote in the referendum for that reason.

“In the same way it would be ridiculous to ask medical practitioners to start prescribing whisky because people feel better when they take it, to prescribe home-grown cannabis is pushing us back at least 150 years in the world of medicine,” he said.”
Best counter-argument I’ve heard so far
It’s not hard to counter the counter-argument either:
1) Since when can the “placebo effect” be ignored? If a chronically ill person believes he/she is getting relief why does it matter?
2) Doctors are hostage to drug manufacturers & the latter can’t extend patent rights over a herb that grows naturally. It wouldn’t matter if smoking cannabis cured coughs, colds, sores, moles & pimples on the dicky. If it can’t make money for Big Pharma they’re anti.
I’m all for anything to helps those in pain so I’m not against it per se. I would have to try it myself to be able to assess potential. Call me synical and careful but the potential for the Greens to abuse their power for their own agenda is not something to sneeze at.
If it’s open borders on dope, if you can not do a roadside test, piss off!

Don’t say least dangerous David, they will want them all.
He’s right though. An AR-15 in the hands of a sportsman or a collector is the least dangerous firearm out there. A 9mm in the hands of a gang member hopped up on meth is a damn dangerous firearm.
Jacinda Ardern has police going after law abiding citizens so she can score political points. She’s doing nothing to make anyone safer. All she’s doing is taking essential freedoms, including those protecting us from our government, away. Speak to people who lived through Mao’s takeover like my father in law and they’ll tell you a story very much like that of Miss Jacinda Ardern.
He’s right which is why Insp. Colin Greenwood, one of Britain’s foremost experts in firearms legislation, said after his visit here that “at least one country has got their firearms laws right” when commenting on our policy of vetting and licencing gun owners not the inanimate objects they choose to own.

“For instance, most human players avoid ‘donk betting’ – that is, ending one round with a call but then starting the next round with a bet,” the researchers said in a statement.
“It’s seen as a weak move that usually doesn’t make strategic sense. But Pluribus placed donk bets far more often than the professionals it defeated.”
Why are Maori the only race in the world that cannot do well in western (modern) education?
https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/education/113975244/mori-students-are-capable–its-the-education-system-thats-broken-principal-says
And yet the article says that the five years olds there know all about the Treaty of Waitangi!
But can they read or write or do maths?
The apologists for Maori should turn their attention to men such as Āpirana Ngata, Te Rangihīroa (Peter Buck), Māui Pōmare & Tūtere Wī Repa.
“Colonialism” didn’t seem to do them much harm.
Sir Ariparana Ngata brought in the no speaking Maori language in schools dictate, as far as I am aware.
He may well have had something to do with it as the policy was well entrenched when my brother & I made up the pakeha segment of the roll of a primary school deep in Ngati Porou territory in 1954/55.
It should be remembered that at the time Maori spoke Te Reo yet as parents they realised that the future for their kids lay in speaking/writing English & it was they who were pushing the policy. In practise it was English in class & Maori in the playground or when the teacher was out of earshot. By the time we left the East Coast I could make myself understood in Maori.
The stories of kids being belted for speaking Maori are the stuff of sickly white liberals. Kids of the day were strapped & caned for everything.
Sorry Apirana.
This country is screwed. For the first time in a couple of decades I am starting to regret moving here, insread of Australia.
The New Zealand of then was a reasonable, civil place. But Jacinda Ardern and her cronies are doing their best to destroy it. And with support from a large swathe of the population, and the rest mostly too scared of Ardern’s retribution to speak up against her control.
What is left? Fight back, take up arms and get rid of this corrupt government? Is it because of leaders like Ardern that militants are made? Flee to a country that still makes sense? Or stay and hope that after it has crashed there is still a chance to rebuild?
Former beauty queen and model may avoid US prison term for assaulting a flight attendant.

What about Johnboy and hie ewes?
Yes, what about them?
He must like being the butt of Aussie jokes.
Why whore?
It looks like our Mayor at the Wiakato District Council Allen Sanson wants to give Maori a free ride on to the Council. Why is it that Maori take the easy way to representation on our Councl boards when Pākehā have to earn the public’s respect by winning enough vote to represent their district.
https://i.stuff.co.nz/waikato-times/news/114105056/waikato-district-council-to-consider-mori-representation-on-committees
This should go to a vote as you have a mayor that is all for the change.
Not only that but once you get a Maori on a council or board they slow things down with their prayers, songs and anti- progress ideas.
Happy Bastille Day
Conservative?

In the latest edition of the Cook Islands magazine ‘Give A Man A Fish’, theres a lengthy interview with Clark Gayford. In response to one of the questions from the editor, he’s quoted as saying, “People need to understand, it’s not all that easy living on the salary of a prime minister.”
I do hope Labour voters appreciate how difficult it is for Cindy to live on $500k. //
Oh the humanity!
What a wanker, first order wanker.
Lawnmowers don’t come cheap and they need constant replacement.
I guess Jethro complaining about Cindy’s income is a clear signal that he doesn’t earn much off his little sponsored fishing show and they have to ‘make do’ on Cindy’s tiny $500k taxpayer paid stipend.
The Mad Queens wages are proping up his hobby now that he can not run the lawnmowing business!
Only saw it once.
Never had a fish on my line that floated to the top of the water and didn’t flap about when landed.
Decided Jethro’s fish was from Countdown and wouldn’t bother watching the wanker pretend to be a fisher again.
Supermarkets are requiring more security as vegans protest by placing anti-meat stickers on meat products.
Would people just mind their own business and stop forcing their views on the rest of us. Leave our food alone.
Makes me want to have a steak and bacon.
In Melbourne there is a Vegan clothing shop. It surprised me to learn it is about more than just food. A militant Vegan won’t even sit in a car with leather seats.
So, get a car with leather seats so you wont be troubled by them. 🙂
A billion dollars extra for mental health sure is not going to cut it with these nutters lurking.
Yes the police need to arrest and charge those guys, that may put a stop to their stupid practices.
Food tampering is a serious offence (at least I assume it is in NZ as elsewhere) and penalties should be swift and harsh.
New laws are resulting in phasing out caged chickens for egg production meaning supermarkets will only be selling free range
https://thepoultrysite.com/news/2019/04/demand-for-cage-free-eggs-contributes-to-egg-shortage-in-new-zealand
“Poultry farmers faced significant costs to meet each stage of the new regulations and some had reduced flock sizes as they made infrastructure changes.”
Bottom line, eggs will be more expensive.
At this time of year, they are not meant to be laying, if you think of the life cycle of the chicken they lay to hatch the eggs. It is hardly the time for that, in saying that, a few of my hens that I reared last year have just started laying green eggs, they are Lavender Aracaunas and I have a silkie hen who has started too. Those aforementioned ducks have not.
It is not cheap overwintering chickens etc people should pay more at markets.
I’ve bought free range for ages off a friend with chickens. I’m just waiting for those who campaigned against cheaply produced eggs to complain about the cost of eggs now free range are going to be the only ones available in the supermarket, that there are fewer eggs produced at a higher cost and therefore the cost will be more expensive.
Egxactly (I could not resist that)
Everything in the supermarket is going to be more expensive, you may have noticed it already, I have.

Q. What’s the difference between a Lesbian in a porno and a real life one?
A. About 12 stone.
How would you know that, nasska?
Good point Ed. After thirty years out in the sticks on a sheep & beef unit it could be said that I’d lived a fairly sheltered life.
Retirement has been an eye opener. Next week we’re heading down to Whangarei & we’re going to have a look at one of those “sex shop” places! 🙂
Come over to Phuket my friend, it will not only open your eyes, they will explode.
Do you not think that it is exploitative? Or is that secondary?
You could fit him up with a girly boy!
As long as you know that there is no ‘try before you buy’!!!
Nasska what has happened to you?
Has someone re-written the words to Old MacDonald had a sheep and beef unit?
Or Ches’n’Dale: We are the boys from down on the sheep and beef unit?
You’ve let the bastards get to you.
Yup, I am only concerned about gender when I want to fuck it. Seeing I am currently not allowed to fuck anything, gender or the lack thereof does not concern me.
……”Seeing I am currently not allowed to fuck anything”……
A few shots of penicillin & you’ll be as good as new! 🙂
In that case, the fucking anything might have been the problem in the first instance. More than one cow cocky has put mastitis penicillin down a urethra, some men have put a nail.
Please debate this statement> “Acting Canterbury District Commander Mike Johnson called the event a “great success” and thanked the gun owners for their support.”
I’d suggest the lack of turnout indicates that they are not going to get too many more….
Doesn’tknow a great success if it bit him on the arse.
Police have been given a hospital pass from SLG and her mates at Great Ideas R Us.
They’ve been tasked with collecting guns from law-abiding citizens, knowing full well it is a very unpopular decision among gun owners, and there will be considerable resistance.
They also know the chances of prising guns from people who should never have had them in the first place is zippo.
While I wouldn’t exonerate them completely from this mess, what would we have Police do? – tell the pollies to naff orf with their daft laws? That would be a whole other problem.
So Mike Johnson declares the day a jolly old success with lashings of ginger beer. Poor sod.
The police were largely responsible for advising on the drawing up the new laws with input, no doubt, from that reprehensible anti gun zealot Cahill of the Police Association and those two mad hags from Otago Uni. One thing the government did not do was ask people who actually know about firearms and what works and doesn’t work legislation wise.
I would not say that it was a “good turnout” for Ardern and our pussy police.
But I was encouraged by the low turnout!

They have youth media too, god help us.
Cross the Rubicon has adopted a new, much more professional, format thank goodness! Here he has a go at Stuff, well worth watching.

I’ve always believed the Black Caps play better when they have a target to chase.
Their decision to bat dented my confidence, but all power to the boys.
When mothers go rogue and try to kill their children.

So where are women that use their children to transport bombs fit in?
At this rate it would take 6 and a half years to collect the guns. 1 m so far, how much all up at that rate?
