Due to the proximity to the city, and the shallow depth this is likely to be worse than the 7.1.
It was a strong shake on the West Coast, was about to jump under the office desk!
This could be a very significant tragedy, I just hope no one was killed.

New Zealand’s Currency Tumbles After 6.3 Earthquake

The New Zealand dollar dropped after the southern city of Christchurch was affected by an earthquake.

The currency slid 0.8 percent to 75.80 U.S. cents as of 1:11 p.m. in Wellington, the biggest drop in more than a week, from 76.38 cents yesterday in New York.

A 6.3 magnitude temblor was recorded off the south island of New Zealand, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.

At least one person has been confirmed dead after after a 6.3 magnitude earthquake in Christchurch caused buildings to collapse and streets to crack and flood this afternoon.

The Fire Service confirmed to Radio New Zealand that there had been “deaths” and to Newstalk ZB that there was at least one dead.

Christchurch resident Jane Smith, who works in the central city, told the Herald a work colleague had just returned from helping rescue efforts after a building facade had collapsed on a bus on Colombo St.

“There’s people dead. He was pulling them out of a bus. Columbo St is completely munted.”

Will it come to pass?

Hone Harawira is likely to be booted out of the Maori Party after a committee deciding his fate recommended to cancel his membership.

The Disciplinary and Disputes committee met yesterday to try and resolve the complaint made by Waiariki MP Te Ururoa Flavell after the Tai Tokerau MP published an article in a Sunday newspaper critical of the cosy relationship his party had with National.

Thoughts go out to the people of Christchurch, what an awful day.

On another note, did anyone catch a glimpse of the Herald online headlines before the quake hit? One of the most disgraceful pieces of journalism to come out of the tabloid for some time (which is saying something).

It read something like “National recommends chain gangs for unwed single mothers on DPB” when our sap ruling party arent even going to implement any of the reforms.

that makes a national victory all the more problematic…

and if the maori party refuse to guarantee their followers that they will not go with national…

..you will see a whole lot of them turning back to labour…or supporting hones’ new party…

Just read the thread. Wanted to stab my knife into philus decomposing; body. Philu you fuckbag. Saying that cutting the benefit will raise rate of abortion is utter bs. Family planning already gives you all the free rubbers you want. I used them often when making passionate student love in my younger days. So the guvmint has already provided a solution for a problem you just createed.

..and ‘rubbers’..eh..?

..and if they didn’t use rubbers…those babies then deserved to be aborted..?

..what are you saying..?

..i’m having trouble following your logic here…

and you don’t think that potential mothers who knew they wd still have a good/liveable…if not rich..life….

..where they cd study etc..and still be a mum…

..if they went to term…

..would be less inclined to choose abortion…?

..you reckon that the life of penury of most sole-mothers..

The life of solo ~~mothers~~ parents on the DPB is self-imposed, phil. Other people work, get pregnant, take parental leave, go back to work.

Many of their children get overseas holidays, a great education cause they pay for it, general life experiences that people with a “benefit entitlement” attitude will never be able to give their kids, not because “the system” holds them down, but because they just don’t choose to. They just don’t love their kids enough to give them the very very best of everything, apparently, because other people do this, with or without a Masters degree, all the time.

Just look at the workforce.

These very same children also grow up with absolutely no scars from not having their mum home when they get home from school, either because wise old mum successfully weaned them off that with no side-effects whatsoever.

So which category are you in phil?

Nothing wrong with single parents, most of them work and set a great example to their kids.

It is the DPB bludgers we cannot stand, especially those who were offered work just yesterday and turned it down.

Phool

I used to be uneasy about abortion, and certainly more so after thirteen weeks, I sure as hell do not and could not support late term or partial birth abortion under any circumstances.

Having said that, I now believe that there are nowhere near enough abortions (inside the 13 week mark) in NZ, more of our feral types should be encouraged to have terminations, it is the only way we will stop the trend of scum breeding scum.

…as a rightwing christian

Firstly language is important phil and your choice of language in “right-wing Christian” indicate you think of me more as someone who likes uniforms than someone who realised early on that self-discipline is the key to success. “Traditional” or “Conservative” (as in, wants to conserve) are more accurate.

Is this the same thing as stereotyping you as a typically arrogant green lefty layabout which many on this blog classify you as?

How can we possibli take you seriously phil when you commit the very crimes you so decry?

Oh, the humanity.

Talking of abortions and lack thereof.

What really happened when Elton John and David Furnish decided to have a baby.

They had their sperm mixed together and had a surrogate mother artificially inseminated with it. When the baby was born Elton and David were waiting at the hospital. They were ushered into a ward where a dozen babies were lying in their cots, eleven of whom were crying and screaming. Over in the corner, one baby was smiling serenely. A nurse came over to both of them and indicated that the happy child was theirs.

“Isn’t it wonderful?” Elton said to David. “All these unhappy babies ……… and yet our baby is so happy. This just proves the superiority of gay love!”

The nurse said, “Oh sure, he’s happy now, but just watch what happens when I pull the thermometer out of his arse!”

What does NZ really need to stimulate the economy? If I was to chip in for 1 hour of someone’s labour each week, then how many kiwis doing the same would it take to subsidise enough jobs to ‘fix’ our economy? And how would we most efficiently handle creating the jobs? Encourage small businesses, cafe’s, rest homes, hospitals etc to simply add extra staff on their payroll? Apprenticeships, start up businesses. I’m sure a pretty good dent could be made in the unemployment level.
Or can’t the problem be fixed with subsidies?

Fair enough venting off Ciaron. It highlights how trivial a lot of the bitching is here, petty point scoring that means nothing in the wider scheme of things. We often get obsessed with nonsense – the earthquake brings home the realities of what really matters, lives, families and friends, fear and having a safe place to live. We don’t appreciate enough how lucky we usually are, and we can now see close up how devastating nature can be and real hardship it can deliver.

Agreed Pete. Normally I do not bother to negotiate Phil’s own peculiar hieroglyphical style but in the light of Ciaron’s rich and eloquent delivery I thought I would look at what it was all about. No-one can deny his passion but over-riding that is the complete lack of logic and offensiveness of his comments. They approach the same degree of obnoxiousness that warranted his last ban. To quote a former King of England ..”who will rid us of this troublesome prick?” or words to that effect.

“..No-one can deny his passion but over-riding that is the complete lack of logic ..”

gee..nookin…

how about (calmly/logically) pointing out exactly how my logic in this is flawed…?

you are 18 yrs old…you are pregnant…you know the father is gone…you have little/none family support..

scenario one:…you live in a culture/society where motherhood is valued/supported..

…and every child is given the same opportunities…

scenario two:..you live in a culture where sole mothers are stigmatised/persecuted/forced into penury..

..and heckled for their fecklessness/sluttiness…

now..in which of those two scenarios…do you think that 18 yr old will be more likely to choose to abort her child…?

..this is all i am saying…

..and so..ipso facto…those urging that persecution of sole-mothers….are promoters of abortion..

..how can they not be…?

…so how is that so ‘offensive’…?

..are the stigmatisers/beneficiary-bashers/abortion-promoters ‘offended’ ..?

..fucken good…!

..maybe they will start thinking beyond their wallets…eh..?

..and start being real ‘christians’…

..cos’ now they are just a vile mockery of the beliefs they purport to hold…eh..?

(…and babies separated from their mothers at 14 weeks…?..eh..?

..this is what that cold-blooded cow rebstock is recommending…

..and this is what the results of the ‘works’ of you ‘christians’ is..

..you make my fucken skin crawl..

..you sick fucken greed-driven fucken hypocrites..

Phil.
You do not know me and you know nothing about my politics, religious, ethical and moral beliefs. They are my beliefs and I am comfortable living by them. I do not preach them to others and I do not have to explain them or justifiy them to you. One thing that I will explain to you is this: You have no right whatsover to make any assumption about any views that I hold about abortion and how or even whether I consider it in the context of so-called Christian beliefs. You have no justification for saying that I am greed driven or hypocritical. I have not and do not intend to get into this debate in this forum.

Your lack of logic is more than adequately demonstrated in that because I have criticised your reasoning vis-a-vis ciaron I am a “sick fucken greed-driven fucken hypocrite…”
If your skin is crawling Phil it is more likely to be substance driven because absolutely nothing I said justified your nasty little diatribe.

phil,

It pains me to even bother responding to your inanities, but I will nonetheless.

Your logic is fundamentally warped.

If, as you claim, that a change to DPB that would require mothers to go back to work when the first child is 3 will drive up the rate of abortions, then what you are really saying is that those same mothers only get pregnant (under the current regime) for the money.

Is that your claim phil; that women use the DPB today for a lifestyle?

What part of “I have not and do not intend to get into this debate in this forum” do you not understand Phillip?
What am I doing here?
1. You are not the hub of this Blog despite your aspirations to be so. I read other comments.
2. I debate to learn and inform. I learn nothing from you and you are beyond learning.
3. I chose not to debate abortion on a blogsite. Fuck you for suggesting that I do not have that right.
4. I do not regard responding to acrimonious and unjustified criticism as playing silly games.
5. I do not subscribe to your theory that because I do not express support for your views then I am opposed to them and am therefore evil. Because you are bigotted enough to hold those views then I do not intend engaging with you.
Clear enough? Now fuck off!
