Dear god. 70 years later and the generations of good German people since ww2 are still being persecuted for the crimes committed by people they didn’t even know. Let’s talk about what’s happening today. Right now. Let’s talk about what israel is doing in Palestine and has been for 70 years in succession – the rapes, the torture, the ethnic cleansing, the murder – year after year after year. ‘YOU’RE A NAUGHTY BOY, FAWLTY’

Hi Kiwibloggers 🙂 I’m currently in Brisbane having just finished attending the G20 Anti-Corruption Conference along with fellow anti-corruption ‘whistle-blower’ Grace Haden. A number of attendees seemed unaware that despite NZs ‘perceived’ status as ‘the least corrupt country in the world’ – NZ STILL has yet to ratify the UN Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) & Minister of Justice Judith Collins ‘Organised Crime & Anti-Corruption Legislation Bill’ (the passage of which is required before NZ can ratify UNCAC) has STILL yet to surface in the House. Still smiling Judith? (Meant of course in a caring way 🙂 LOTS more to come …. Kind regards Penny Bright

Penny, give one good reason why New Zealand, being one of the two least corrupt countries in the world, should sign the UN Convention, considering Afghanistan rates as most corrupt country, equal with North Korea and Somalia –
But Afghanistan has both signed and ratified the United Nations Convention against Corruption.
Signing means nothing. In fact it may be considered morally corrupt, meant in the nicest way possible 🙂

Ah PENELOPE

Thank you for finally appearing.

In case you haven’t noticed, there is a nice little Corruption matter for you to get your teeth into when you arrive back.

It involves your friends in the New Zealand Labour Party, and being the completely impartial ANTI CORRUPTION CAMPAIGNER that you are, we here at Kiwiblog ALL expect that you will give this matter your fullest and most complete attention and take the matter to the High Court, since after all, you did exactly that in respect of Mr. Banks.

And, of course, even if he becomes Prime Minister, we also expect that you will relentlessly pursue Mr. David Cunnliffe to the same end, and beyond.

You have set the bar high m’dear, so naturally you will be expected to reach at least that same height, and, indeed, because of the high profile status of Mr. Cunnliffe, to exceed it by a truly amazing amount.

As you have continuously regaled with tales of your accomplishments as an ‘Anti Corruption Campaigner”, your ‘fans’ will expect no less.

But should you choose not to do so…..

“Democracy” is today a supremely fashionable word in our country, mouthed in endless variations, flaunted, brandished, and exploited for personal advantage. But there is no tangible evidence that we have given close thought to the exact meaning of this term.

Is New Zealand unique in that any university post grad student or professer can come
up with a conclusion to a survey that they have conducted (as a result of a grant that they have recieved )

That the media report it as fact. A new survey has revealed that….

These professers will keep comming up with this sort of shit untill they are roundly ridiculed by all.

Of miriads of examples try this one.

Some fuck wit academic has declared that our poorest children are worse off than poor Indians in shitholes in
India.

This is reported with no member of our 4th estate questioning it.
In fact that puke now is the subject of two questions in parliiament today as though it was a
fact.

What has happened to journalism in our country ?

Lets ridicule and laugh at these drongs.

You gotta ask, why do our “reporters’ always ask for a comment on a piece of puke instead of questioning the piece of puke ?

….” but it’s not actually what he said.”…..

What the overeducated wanker said was….”The poorest Kiwi children are now no better off than some children in the slums of India”…. So if you wish to dance on the head of a pin you’re arguing “no worse off” vs “are worse off”.

Cricko’s comment is fair. The socialist professor was trying for pathos in order to get his pitiful book read knowing full well that the left cuddling MSM would provide him with publicity.

There is NO child poverty in NZ that cannot be sheeted home to useless breeders who are flatteringly described as parents. The blame lies with them & no one else.

RE:’I f YOU believe that a bribery or corruption offence has been committed by ANY person – this is what YOU can do: Make a formal written complaint to the Police or SFO YOURSELF and see how you get on’

No, no Penelope, , you don’t understand. It’s YOU who have to make to ‘formal written complaint’.

You have your REPUTATION as an ‘ANTI CORRUPTION CAMPAIGNER’ that YOU have to uphold. You’ve hectored us for several years about your beliefs and actions, and have taken J. Banks to court with much glee.

It’s YOU who have to follow through with this matter, NOT the Kiwiblog habitues.

The case is there, the CORRUPTION is there (and growing BTW). it’s time for you to bring all your much vaunted and touted ANTI CORRUPTION EXPERTISE into the public gaze, and prove that you are actually what you say you are;

A ‘Valiant destroyer of Corruption’ boldly going where no-one else has so far dared to go.

Effectively, for you, Ms Bright, it’s now a case of ‘Put up or. . .’

Over to you….

Kiwiblog will be watching your actions with interest.

Just listened to Rachel Smalley giving her opinion of political events today on ZB

Does she have any opinion that doesn’t begin with, “Yuh know……..”

Small point but. Every fricken sentence,’ Yuh know, or, Well Larry, yuh know….”

Almost as good as Corrin Dan starting every sentence with, “Look……” or “Listen…..”

Course every TV1 correspondent begins at least one sentence in every report with, “Look…..”

Watch for it tonight if you are a disbeliever.

It must be a cantagious disease.

I read your comment on the “economic growth” thread about mortgage payments on one income….been there, done that. Briefly I had two mortgages (the 2nd at 23% int) three kids & two jobs to pay the bills. The good news is that it does get better.

Maybe because of this, authors wanking on about comparative poverty make me nauseous. Living on a low income or a benefit would not be great but it’s not all tea & skittles for the workers either. The bleeding hearts want your kids’ welfare reduced by taking money off you to give to the feckless.

If the bludgers want another cent of my money then let them receive all welfare largess via targeted cards instead of cash….if there’s still a problem then I’ll listen.

“There is NO child poverty in NZ that cannot be sheeted home to useless breeders who are flatteringly described as parents.”

Well, yes and no. There are some people who are poor through no fault of their own, just bad circumstances.

That said, there is a sub-culture here in NZ that assumes that the world owes them everything and they should get everything without any effort.

And I agree that comparing child poverty in NZ with India is just plain stupid.

Bradbury and Prentice ripping in to each other for controlling the messages on their blogs is kinda hilarious.

But this is better:

Victory!

I’ve been thinking about the crisis enveloping David Cunliffe and the Labour Party. It seems increasingly clear that the whole thing was a National party setup.

But if the Nats think this is some sort of victory for them, they should think again. The whole thing is backfiring badly, and they will end up regretting their smear. Already the nation is turning on National, as people wake up and realise who is behind this scandal. I’ve seen at least three people on my Twitter feed questioning National’s tactics.

I’m not at all worried about the polls out this week, one of which showed support for Labour as low as 23%. 23% is a pretty good base to build from, and if Labour can hold that number on September 20 and then do deals with the Greens, Mana-Internet, NZ First, the Maori Party, Peter Dunne, and ACT, they should be able to form a government, if several National MPs also defect to Labour.

But the polls will go up, as people finally wake up and realise how rotten and corrupt this pack of Tories are. National will rue the day they ever attacked the credibility of David Cunliffe. I’m sure they will. Any moment now the public of this country will cry “enough!” and sweep Labour into power.

There is no disaster for Labour here. Only opportunity. This will be a strategic victory for Labour and for David Cunliffe, mark my words.

It makes you wonder, though. It’s so obvious that this will now backfire that it almost makes you wonder if David Cunliffe planned it to turn out this way.

Supposing Cunliffe engineered the entire thing, knowing his opponents would not be able to help themselves? Knowing that when it all blew up in their faces, he would be triumphant.

If that’s what happened, then David Cunliffe is a genius. A legend.

This is a disaster for National (update: now four people on my Twitter feed have questioned National’s tactics). Any moment now the polls will rebound. Any moment now the public will rise up in disgust at National’s dirty tactics.

Any moment now…

BTW keep your eyes out for the next “Investigate” mag…I think you will enjoy my views on Muslim immigration to our fair land…

Wahine: next month…late next month…I’d like to think I have argued a somewhat better case than my predecessor Mr Prosser of NZ First…

Hopefully you have cast a Sunni viewpoint on Shite stuff or a Shitey viewpoint on what may have once been Sunni David! 🙂

NW: yes…I suspect Mr Prosser may have written that piece close to deadline when tired and emotional…never a good idea…It was the refs to “Wogistan” which did him in I think…

The “Humans of Remuera” facebook page – is that political campaigning or what?

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Humans-of-Remuera/1517925395102391

Seems a bit sinister / cutting to be real satire. Time to report it as hate speech.

I see the Dyke Iprent from the the Labour rag is threatening 3 month bans for anyone not spreading their cheeks for labour. This guy is a sick unit who lives in his own world. Never met the idiot but going by his rants he must be a fat little stumpy shit with a small dick. Brave man behind his key board but a wimp if confronted.

While I am in full flight I see the scum sucking greens are upset that the West Coast will survive to live another day. The Govt is going to allow the fallen trees to be milled. This will equate to many jobs in the depressed region and a much needed income for the residents. The greens would rather see the trees rot along with the good west coasters than see the area progress. These are the same bastards that use to hammer nails into trees about to be milled.

I am surprised that Egor the west coast Gween member manages to get a few votes but I forget he is a list MP so no value. Get a real job son.

I understand that Cunners has spread the word to what is left of his supporters. Go forth and infiltrate the right wing blogs to try and disrupt them. That’s why I smell trolls.

The Japs tried it in WW2 but they were still shot down. The Devine Wind will be a failure.

@ RF.. It would seem that those fallen West Coast rimu, totara and beech trees were not aware of the DG of DOC’s opinion piece in the Dominion last June that they were superior in their adaptation to storms than non-natives.
http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/comment/8857529/Native-trees-a-capital-investment

How the head of NZs Conservation Dept could be so unaware of the basic biophysics of trees in the face of gale-force stresses is beyond my comprehension. Anyone who has wandered off-track in NZs bush will have encountered windfalls. The scientific literature has numerous reports of wind damage to NZ forests – native and exotic.

Maggy Wassilieff. I lived in the west coast in the 70s and my job took me from Karamea to Haast. I fully understand how the climate can disrupt our beautiful native forest however I witnessed first hand the criminal behaviour of the greens who in spite of their publicity blurbs do not like the west coast.

Pohutukawa is not native to wellington and depending on where its grown and sourced from it takes many different forms including upright single trunk trees and a variety which grows as long ground touching branches.
It has a nasty habit of dropping its large branches over time which re sprout spreading the tree outwards. There are trees On barrier that have spread 100m plus with the original trunk long since rotted away The writer of that story was exceedingly ignorant of our treescape.

Southern rata Northern rata and Pohutukawa are all members of the family.
My favorite native species I grow many from cuttings including this vine which is spectacular when it flowers.

They are all under threat from possums.
Hence the imperative that we keep numbers down using 1080

@ Griff… “The writer of that story was exceedingly ignorant of our treescape”.

if you were referring to the opinion piece I linked to, then I’m in complete agreement with you.

But the embarrassing thing is that the “story” was written by the then head of the Department of Conservation – Al Morrison.
His extraordinary view that somehow native plants have evolved qualities that defy physics (too much load /stress) beggars belief.
Where were his science advisors? Is there a forester left in DOC?
