Why doesn’t Cricket NZ just leave Ryder alone to get pissed and do whatever he wants. It is obvious that he only played well when he was living on the edge. He is a cricketer, not a candidate for office so who cares what he does off the pitch?

@bij from So when will Labour and Greens vote to repeal anti-smacking law?: the majority’s out-dated views about parenting

Do the majority have outdated views about mixed ownership models? Or is it just cynical politicking?

Much of the opposition to asset sales is driven by extreme scaremongering by Labour, Greens, and repeated by commenters particularly on blogs like Dim-Post and The Standard. Most of what they claim is bullshit or unsubstantiated. And now they want a petition and a referendum to extend their campaigns.

Labour have promoted mixed ownership models as recently as 2010, and have set them up eg Air New Zealand (and tried to part sell to foreigners). NZ First have also supported MOMs in the past. And the Greens just oppose anything that’s related to business.

Greek debt swap looking likely

Investors holding at least 61 per cent of the total 206 billion euros in debt have already signed up well before the 2000 GMT deadline, Reuters reported, adding that some Greek media have cited higher figures. That’s comfortably above the 50 per cent required for a deal and likely to surpass the 75 per cent needed to enforce losses on any holdouts.

Must come as a disappointment for various commenters who’ve been salivating recently over the prospect of a European economic meltdown.

When did did NZF support MOMs? They are a very recent euphemism. One which fools few by the way.
I agree with the morning report guy..”Another day , another industrial dispute.” Nat govts are so predictable and boring. So few new ideas.

So Bishop Victoria has come under fire for apparently not releasing the engineering report on Christchurch Cathedral. I would not be at all surprised if the consultant who prepared it did so on the basis that the report was for Diocese only and it not be made public. If the consultant was asked to prepare a report to be made public, he or she would have needed to obtain a wide range of peer review and take PR advice with respect to its presentation. This would have greatly increased its cost. The consultant could otherwise face the following consequences:
1. Public villification resulting in loss of business.
2. Frivolous and vexatious complaints to a professional disciplinary body and the cost of defending oneself. And when the complaints are thrown out, the risk of someone seeking judicial review against the decision resulting in even more cost.

So this, basically, is why the report is not going to be made public.

Another week another strike.

Yes, there’s growing signs that unions were prepared to wait out one term in opposition, but when they lost in November they seem to have decided to try and win by any means possible – and if that stuffs the country in the meantime they don’t care.

Here is a standard bitches of blog attack: Work needed.

But when it’s one of their own it’s even less pretty: How history will remember Len Brown: scab, coward.

You betrayed the people you pretended to represent Len.

Of course that brave attack comes from an anonymous “The Sprout” union spokesperson.

Thanks joana but no, I don’t, I just comment on what I see. Some of it is obvious enough for even me to notice.

And it’s been known for about as long as there have been unions and a Labour Party (before my time) that they are fairly closely linked.

Labour spent much of their last term waiting, expecting voters to flock back to them, thinking 2008 was just a poll fluctuation that was undeserved. They even complained at Greens encroaching in ‘their’ voters. And despaired that ‘their vote’ didn’t look like flodding back.

How much of this term are they going to spend trying to re-fight the campaign they lost in 2011? At what cost?

Serious question.

@brian smaller the issue isn’t that he was drinking or having a lark with his mates, though with his history it was unwise, it’s that he broke team protocols for injury rehabilitation. If they let him or anyone else get away with established rules/etiquette then others will do the same…..morale goes down, simple. He’s damaging to the team in general. No one is indispensable.

So Mojo has got her funding now.
Of course disabled people can do anything and good on them- but when it is at the expense of other people I think it is selfish.
There are occupations that are not suited to people with certain disabilities- not everyone is suited to every job going.
A blind person would obviously not get a job as a bus driver..However if they had the right assistance they could do it…but what is the point when it is at the expense of everyone else?
I dont see how Mojo, being deaf, will be up to speed in parliament. Now the taxpayer has to front up.
The greens knew of her deafness so dont see why it wasnt sorted out before now.
I do not have a problem with deaf or disabled people, my own father was deaf. Im just realistic.

The Give Way road rules are changing later on this month – the 25th of March
I know – I thought it was next year. There has been almost no advertising about it, which I think is totally irresponsible.
It’s going to be a huge mess I reckon.

Anyway, you can find out about the new rules here – http://www.nzta.govt.nz/traffic/around-nz/road-user-rule.html

Great to see you are onto the whole islam thing David..So many NZers are so naive..not just the women. When I was on a plane as a child , some Paki tried to pick me up. Even as a child , I knew it wasn’t going to be a wild ride. These women should pay for their own rescues..nothing can be done about their stupidity tho.

Its pretty obvious that a large brown paper bag full of used notes changed hands when Immigration allowed Mr Dot Com residency. Just prior to that he had been convicted in the Hong Kong Courts in relation to share transactions.
To all those thick naive morons who have defended him. This is one very bad dude. The only reason he is getting sympathy is because of a xenophobic hatred of the US of A and that stealing private property rights is seen as OK by the morons defending him

If I came onto their property and stole stuff of them and the cops just stood by and shrugged these morons would be screaming blue murder.

Ok, so i’ll put you down in the “It’ll be alright” camp. Fair enough.

The debt swap is simply bondholders taking an optional bath instead of being forced into one by the CACs. From The Telegraph:

Critics argue that, even with the bondholder deal, the bail-out measures are inadequate. Raoul Ruparel, of Open Europe, said: “The package still offers little hope of making debt sustainable in Greece and puts taxpayers at the risk of greater losses under what looks to be an inevitable Greek default.”

This debt swap has nothing to do with creating a sustainable solution. It’s primilarly a political move to defer the inevitable default until after the French Presidential election. IIRC French banks have the highest exposure to Greek sovereign debt. Of course the scale of the fallout will be greater for the Greek people, but delaying will keep Sarkozy and legions of Eurocrats happy in the meantime.

And you have proof of this?

Actually what happened is that INZ weighed up his convictions against the benefit he would bring to this country. Clearly they made the right decision. The convictions in Hong Kong resulted in a fine, hardly a big deal and his other convictions were old.

It is reported he spent one million in GST alone and indirectly provided employment for about 18 people (not to mention contributing to other local businesses). INZ would be fools if they didn’t chase after a guy like this.

Just prior to that he had been convicted in the Hong Kong Courts in relation to share transactions.
To all those thick naive morons who have defended him. This is one very bad dude.

Right, a $1250 fine. ooooo… he’s Dr. Evil alright! 🙂

I think your understanding of the issues involved is poor. The case rests on the idea that Dotcom conspired to induce copyright. Inducement of copyright is not a crime, it’s a civil liability, and so the whole basis for the case is questionable.

I also think your analogy with physical property is simplistic. There is a reason copyright infringement is not the same thing as theft and that reason underlies why Hollywood is a bloated monopoly where the major players conspire to control the market to the detriment of consumers and artists alike.

With amusement I see energy safety NZ have jumped on the politically correct bandwagon… from one of their brochures, explaining 240v regulations…

Maori terms

From a Maori perspective, the term “earth” or Papatuanuku
translates as Earth Mother – the source of all energy. When aligning
this concept to the flow of electricity, a useful parallel can be made to
the 3-pin plug.

Electricity Maori
Active (phase) Spiritual element, active, tapu

Neutral Physical element, neutral, noa

Earth Mauri or life force derived from
Papatuanuku or Earth Mother

For the purposes of regulation 17(2)(n), for payment or reward also
means koha.

I thought this was rather silly and potentially confusing.

@ Pete 1:44 pm:

I think you mean, “How much lower can The Standard sink?”

Honestly, why do you bother reading The Standard? It’s a very sad depressing little corner of the Internet, frequented by people who have the hard-wired notion that anything “right” is EVIL. Lorded over by the poster-child for OCD, lprent.

It’s a nasty vicious and spiteful blog, and I personally have better things to do than wasting time there. I’m surprised half the regulars there haven’t slit their wrists yet, with all the doom and gloom they weree forever predicting when I did waste my time there.

frequented by people who have the hard-wired notion that anything “right” is EVIL.

Surely not. Ah, hang on…

“Shane, do you think it’s POAL bad, MUNZ good?”

“All the way! POAL represent the 1% and are driving slave conditions. ”

That was half an hour ago. Shane isn’t a regular there but that sort of attitude is common.

When I was on a plane as a child , some Paki tried to pick me up.

You really are a sad old racist Joanna.

Pakistan ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child (hereinafter the Convention) on 12
November 1990, making a reservation on interpreting its provisions following the principles of
Islamic laws and values. In 1997 Pakistan decided to withdraw its reservation. OMCT warmly
welcomes this decision since it marks the intention to unconditionally implement Children’s
rights in Pakistan.

Yes. It’s a step in the right direction. Remember us Whiteys were sending kids up chimneys and down mines a few generations ago. Was that anything to do with our race?

The other point is, using the word Paki, especially in a derogatory context is blatantly racist. It’s up to Joanna if she wants say racist things, just as it’s up to me if I want to call her out for it.

The decline led by the New Zealand Herald.

This rag now breathlessly reports that the decision to grant Dotcom residency in the light of all his convictions
including the recent ones revealed in Hong Kong was the right decision.

And who does this rag quote for its story ?

The race to the bottom is nearly over for the MSM in New Zealand. The Herald & the rest of the daily papers are probably beyond redemption. What I am still trying to figure out is what instigated the slide. I wonder:

1). Did we, the public become so moronic that the only things we can get our heads around are pap “human interest” stories, dumbed down yet carefully crafted press releases & celebrity gossip?

2). Alternatively, are we the result of a successful attempt to stop us asking hard questions of where we are being led & how our opinions are being shaped for us?

Why is it ok to say some things and not others?

If I say all judges are fat, white, over educated, alcoholic, bigot, fucks – that’s fine.
If I say all criminals are black – that’s not.

If I say that all Christians are pathetic, deluded fuck-ups who cling desperately to their benevolent imaginary friend because they are unwilling and incapable of improving their own situation – that’s fine.
If I say all Muslims could do with being a bit nicer to women – that’s not.

If I say that all men think with their cocks and would happily fuck their syphilitic grandmothers if that was the only thing on offer – that’s fine.
If I say that all women have a tendency to gossip and should really be a bit nicer to each other – that’s not.

If there ever was a corrupt department it would have to be the immigration department.

Why else would crooked ex ministers of immigration start up their own immigration business’s

Ever been into the public counter of the dept of immigration in Auckland ?

If you can find a european person working behind that counter. i will donate $100 to the charity of your choice.

How is that ?

If you are seeking advice as to how you go about marry sumwun to get them nz residence you will get all the help in the world.
If you wnt to talk about your British father, you can fuck off.
Wots the story ?

Why is this never talked about ?

If I say that all Christians are pathetic, deluded fuck-ups who cling desperately to their benevolent imaginary friend because they are unwilling and incapable of improving their own situation – that’s fine.

Nooooo it’s not. Now then…. be nice, and post a joke 🙂

….”be nice, and post a joke”…… Okay:

Jesus, in a very worried state, convened all of his apostles and disciples to an emergency meeting because of the drug consumption problem all over the world.

After giving it much thought they reached the conclusion that in order to better deal with the problem, that they should try the drugs themselves and then decide on the correct way to proceed.

It was therefore decided that a commission made up of some of the members return to earth to get the different types of drugs.

The secret operation is effected and two days later the commissioned disciples begin to return to heaven.

Jesus, waiting at the door, lets in the first disciple:

“Who is it?”
“It’s Paul”
Jesus opens the door.
“What did you bring Paul?”
“Hashish from Morocco”
“Very well son, come in.”

“Who is it?”
“It’s Mark”
Jesus opens the door.
“What did you bring Mark?”
“Marijuana from Colombia”
“Very well son, come in.”

“Who is it?”
“It’s Matthew”
Jesus opens the door.
“What did you bring Matthew?”
“Cocaine from Bolivia”
“Very well son, come in.”

“Who is it?”
“It’s John”
Jesus opens the door.
“What did you bring John?”
“Crack from New York”
“Very well son, come in.”

“Who is it?”
“It’s Luke”
Jesus opens the door.
“What did you bring Luke?”
“Speed from Amsterdam”
“Very well son, come in.”

“Who is it?”
“It’s Judas”
Jesus opens the door.
What did you bring Judas?”
“The DRUG SQUAD…. EVERYONE AGAINST THE WALL!!

i would have thought that the ‘ an on y mous’ was the whole deal around blog sites ?

Maybe you missed the whole point darling. Otherwise.

You should start up your own site where everyone gives their address, age, ird number and phone number.
By the way……..

Who gives a fuck about Paul White ?
Even less, who killed him.

Some people just deserve to be killed.
Suck it up.

I have been mixing in Asian communities for about thirty years so I haven’t a clue re who Paul White is. Anyone care to enlighten me?
I gather David is rather bitter about not being in parliament anymore..We all have our disappointments. Hope he can move on soon.

the whole multi culti thing has only happened in western countries..Try getting PR or citizenship in an Asian country? It is all one way traffic into the western countries..Reasons?..many and varied I suspect. Communists, anarchists , socialists..all have open borders as one of their founding tenets..I guess the idea is to undermine western culture , ways..Big business also wants cheap labour. Political correctness started with gramsky in the 30s
He said he wanted to make what was important , unimportant…what was unimportant , important..I would say he has done a fairly good job..He was based in Spain but cos of the 2WWar. their ideas travelled to the US..I think to Columbia Uni and spread from there..PC has not just happened it has been and still his a planned movement , a highly organized plot by highly organized people..All designed to destroy the west as we know it..May write more on todays general debate but now have to head out for the day..It is some time since I read on these topics ..others will know more.

re Scott Chris..I think he is just really innocent..maybe young..Somewhere else he was asking what was the connection between PC and socialism. I apologize for any previous rudeness to him.
