And every man and dog is using mental health issues these days. As an excuse. WTF is with that?

I wonder if anybody in the Worst Government Ever has any idea how much they are pissing off the vast majority of Kiwis, less than a year into their first (and only) term?

– Cindy-girl blabbering on about Gender Equality or some horse shit in the ABs changing room
– Arse holing Charter Schools
– Jacking up the price of gas
– Musing prisoners might get the vote
– Reclaiming the word ‘c**t

I could go on, and you may.

Even non-beltway, easily digested issues like these take a while to permeate the Kiwi skull but boy oh boy they are entrenched now.

Just the act of banning plastic bags. Someone uses their hands to carry a few items and drops the eggs on the floor by the car, what do they mutter under their breath?

‘F***in Labour!’ or ‘F***in Greens!’

They haven’t learned from the light bulbs have they?

Stop worrying about Simon Bridges. It won’t matter who’s leading National in 2020, it could be my dog, it will be a landslide and the Nat’s will most likely govern alone.

Saying No to Winston was the best thing Bill English and Co could have done for NZ long term, and I believe that’s exactly what they did.

1 term of this = 3 terms of National

      It’s heartbreaking that this once beautiful country is being run by a stupid immature little brat who has a goddess complex and more interested in selfies.

  I do agree this does appear to be the worst government ever of my lifetime.Unfortunately because of the vagaries of MMP we have foisted on us a young Prime Minister with very little life experience, virtually no experience in the private sector but full of leftist utopian ideals that have no correspondence with reality.
  
  She doesn’t know what she doesn’t know. So if we overturn our abortion laws, shut down the energy sector, overturn our prohibition against euthanasia, shut down charter schools, get rid of the 3 strikes law, then she thinks all will be well.
  
  But all is not well. Our economy is slowing down and seems to be heading towards recession. We’re not gonna build prisons fast enough to safely hold our prison population and protect the community from harm.
  
  But our prime minister appears to be going full tilt implementing every foolish leftist idea that is buzzing in her head.
  
  One can only hope that sanity will prevail at our next election. One can only hope that we will elect a proper government with good ideas and the courage to completely dismantle the legacy of the worst government in our lifetimes.

  I stopped in the supermarket on the way to work. No plastic bags. But you can buy a re-usable bag for $1 or try juggling half a dozen items walking along Lampton Quay. A bag I will never use again because I don’t carry fucking shopping bags around with me all the time on the off-chance I have to pop into the supermarket. Fuck you very much Countdown and other virtue signalling twats.

    I was in Australia last month, and they have recently changed to no plastic bags. Surprisingly, the sky had not fallen on their heads. I imagine you will, like everybody else, cope with the change.

      Exactly I was in Coles in Queensland a couple of weeks ago, Consumer backlash meant they were giving out plastic bags except they weren’t the lightweight single use ones. They were heavy duty plastic bags. Ended up in the same bin though.

It is Myanmar Tear Fund morning on Garner, and we find a black person shot lots in Jacksonville. If I was Garner I would ask why Saudi Arabia hasn’t taken these Myanmar people, but no, Jacinda might take some though.

  I don’t listen/watch Garner so I don’t know what he said, but I expect he was talking about the people who were hounded out of Myanmar.
  Why would they want to go to Saudi or NZ or Bangladesh or Thailand or Malaysia? Myanmar is their home.
  A couple of years ago I ran into a Syrian refugee delivering stuff to a place I was working. His situation in Syria had become untenable for reasons for all know. I said you must be pleased to be in NZ. No, he said, he was grateful to be given the chance to start a new life, but he loved Syria . . . . .

    He can always go back.
    
    Like the Rohinga can go back to Bangladesh.
    
    Likewise all the blacks / non whites who are constantly attacking all things west , they too can go “home” if they find the west so disagreeable.
    
    And before you call me racist , it seems ok for them to proclaim “White man Go Home” , so why can’t we say the same.
    
    Afterall we all want equality , don’t we?

      Maybe they can go to Bangladesh, but they can’t go ‘back’ to Bangladesh. They are from Burma. If you go back enough centuries, just about everyone is from somewhere else but the Rohingya have been in Burma for a very long time. Now they have to flee due to religious persecution. Surely you can accept that no matter how angry you may be about things that other Muslims have done in other countries.

    Umm, MCos
    
    A small point concerning those muslims being supposedly ‘hounded’ out of Burma. It’s called ‘consequences of one’s actions’ and was long in the making. The Rohinga went into the area when the British were fighting the Japanese and, and after the Japanese had left, became squatters in the liberated areas, and while so-doing quickly established a reputation for doing what muslims do well; implementing their faith at the point of the sword. The British recognised this early on, but although the local Commanders were unhappy about the situation, London decreed otherwise; they stayed. The ‘Japanese’ war ended, the British left BUT as already noted, the Rohinga stayed – and continued their policies. Events in India concerning ‘independence’ didn’t exactly help matters.
    
    The largely Bhuddist Burmese (Myanmah) government inhereted the problem (unwillingly it should be said) but adopted the view that so long as the Rohinga kept to themselves they could be ignored – especially as there were other, more pressing matters of a military naure to be dealt with first. The Rohinga thought otherwise and eventually (perhaps foolishly, but in pursuit of the expansion of Islam) decided to take on the Government in a direct confrontation; the premise apparently being that as Buddhists are religiously ‘passive’ in their beliefs they would be a push-over. Bangaladesh, always willing to assist fellow islamists ‘to advance the cause of the faith’ was able to supply various munitions for the purpose…
    
    Unfortunately it was something of a wrong call!!
    
    Somewhat ticked-off by what became an insurrection of some magnitude, and appalled at the shear savagery of the muslims, the Burmese eventually resorted to military means and decided to assist the insurgents back across the border to Bangladesh; they were, after all, only ‘visitors’ (‘Squatters’ as previously noted) who had no legal right of occupancy.
    
    It was this largely self-inflicted ‘consequence’ which has ‘assisted’ the return of the Rohingas to their homeland. Despite what the international media and various self-interested aid organisations woul have you believe, the ‘hounding’ is merely a not-unreasonable reassertion of Burmese sovereignty over an area which was largely lawless and unmanigable due to the actions of a people-group who were, at best only ever intended to be ‘short-term visitors’.
    
    As I said, a small detail, but somewhat important…

Reacting to Senator McCain’s death, Winston Peters said:

Senator McCain was a man of principle who dedicated his life to the service of his country. He was an inspirational leader and war hero; a man of integrity and bravery,”

https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/106577120/a-hero-a-leader-nz-politicians-dignitaries-remember-us-senator-john-mccain

Good riddance Songbird McCain you cowardly, ISIS supporting piece of shit. It’s rather appropriate that tributes are flowing in from luminaries of the Calibre of Winnie Peters, Helen Clark and Obummer.

How many needless lives were lost because of this war mongering, Obamacare enabling RINO?

With Peter Sutherland, David Rockefeller and now John Macain all confirmed dead over the past 18 months, hopefully George “György Schwartz” Soros will shuffle off this mortal coil before years end.?

    This is thoroughly inappropriate but funny. My late father (who loved Trump because he was a builder) would be lying there in his lazyboy last year watching Judge Janine or Hannity and when McCain slagged off Trump he would say, “That bloody McCain has rocks in his head.” A few weeks later he was diagnosed with a brain tumor and the next time I saw him I said to dad what he had said repeatedly and he was, “so I’ve got terminal cancer too.”

  McCain was a RINO. He despised the very conservatives he was sent to Washington to represent. If he had his way Democrat Joe Lieberman would have been his running mate in ’08.
  
  Without Republicans such as McCain Donald Trump would never have become president, simple.

  Pathetic. Maxwell should follow his own advice or if he has actually attended the criminal courts take off his pink specs.
  
  Judges don’t imprison people at will. KB’s frequently growl about their lack of willingness to put people away. We are blessed with good judges. They respect both sides: those who repeat violence will be imprisoned but they are reluctant to destroy lives so may appear too cautious. That all means those in prison are not there because race, colour or bad breath–they have proven to seriously damage society and we both need time out from them. Eventually the psychopaths become permanents in HM Boarding house.
  So we have more Maori proportionately in gaol simply because they have more violent offenses or serious criminal ones. Non-violent offenses may be repeatedly driving without a licence. After a few times in Court judges have to attempt to enforce discipline. Those who ignore that show they have little or no respect for the broad societal norms–their future is likely to be increasingly worse offending. That lack of respect for boundaries coupled with violence results in incarceration to keep the community safe.
  
  Whites who repeatedly offend are treated the same. Our Courts are more fair than many people give them credit for.

What is with brats these days. I’m losing the battle. :)My guys won’t move from the bed without charge. I never had a cellphone until I was 23. Then I was mocked mercilessly for being a try-hard. Within weeks everyone had one and we were texting each other from one end of the dinner table to the other. Bit of harmless fun. We knew it was a novelty. We still had a phone connected to the wall and one fucking screen. As I type this, every brat has a screen and a phone. The phone is connected to their hand and Fuck knows how they play Fortnite with the extra appendage, but they manage. And if I tell them to lose the screen time, they bitch about how awful a Mother I am.
Cockheads, the lot of them but they run as a pack. They’re all on the same page. Currently I have one son playing with a friend in Tahoe. His Avatar name is Deeznuts. This kid yells so loud I feel like I have another child in the house.
My son’s Avatar is Lickmaballs. BTW.
And half an hour ago, the oldest called me on his mobile to bring him a fucking towel!
A fucking towel! From the other end of the House. Couldn’t drip his way to the linen closet.
The girl is as bad. She’s flat out like a flounder on the couch with her eyes glued on a screen.

  Go back to bed MW.
  Tell your kids they are on their own for breakfast.
  Don’t get out of bed until lunchtime. Do NoT Answer Your Phone.
  Then go shopping for yourself (and have a big meal in town).
  When you come home, ignore your kids.
  
  Repeat daily.

    Haha! Thank you for the sage advice. I tried to get one outta bed to walk the dog and I was at the end of my patience. He’s still there and it’s 1.30pm. Yelling at his friend in Tahoe. I’ve done four loads of laundry already and cleaned two bogs. I think I might have to go get some time out and a meal in a proper restaurant. 🙂

      For getting them out of bed, have you thought of investing in an air horn?
      
      You might chuck all the stuff on the floor in black sacks and make them earn their possessions back.
      ie. you can have one of your trainers when you’ve walked the dog and tomorrow you can earn the other one.

      Is it school holidays again? I used to announce that I would be vacuuming in the morning and that anything on the floor would go into the plastic rubbish bag – clothes, the lot. I only had to do it once as the rubbish collection in our street was after lunch.
      We also had a chores roster on the frig, and weekly allowances were paid on the proviso that ALL were done in a timely manner.
      Don’t know how you guys cope with the internet/phone obsessed generation. I think I’d leave home.

  Try changing the beds to metal framed ones and wiring them to the mains.
  Ought to be a sufficient “charge” to get them outa bed.

    Here you go, Monique, a quick Google search suggests that you are in good company 🙂
    In Book III of Odes, circa 20 BC, Horace wrote:
    Our sires’ age was worse than our grandsires’. We, their sons, are more worthless than they; so in our turn we shall give the world a progeny yet more corrupt.
    
    Peter the Hermit (ca 1290), attributed, probably apochryphal
    The world is passing through troubling times. The young people of today think of nothing but themselves. They have no reverence for parents or old age. They are impatient of all restraint. They talk as if they knew everything, and what passes for wisdom with us is foolishness with them. As for the girls, they are forward, immodest and unladylike in speech, behavior and dress.
    
    In his 1624 book The Wise-Man’s Forecast against the Evill Time, Thomas Barnes, the minister of St. Margaret’s Church on New Fish Street in London, bemoaned:
    Youth were never more sawcie, yea never more savagely saucie . . . the ancient are scorned, the honourable are contemned, the magistrate is not dreaded.
    
    In the 1790 book Memoirs of the Bloomsgrove Family, Reverend Enos Hitchcock wrote,
    The free access which many young people have to romances, novels, and plays has poisoned the mind and corrupted the morals of many a promising youth; and prevented others from improving their minds in useful knowledge. Parents take care to feed their children with wholesome diet; and yet how unconcerned about the provision for the mind, whether they are furnished with salutary food, or with trash, chaff, or poison?
    
    In a speech to the House of Commons on February 28, 1843, Anthony Ashley Cooper, the 7th Earl of Shaftesbury, ranted:
    …a fearful multitude of untutored savages… [boys] with dogs at their heels and other evidence of dissolute habits…[girls who] drive coal-carts, ride astride upon horses, drink, swear, fight, smoke, whistle, and care for nobody…the morals of children are tenfold worse than formerly.
    
    In 1904, psychologist and educator Granville Stanley Hall published The Psychology of Adolescence, in which he warned that it was a dangerous time, particularly for young folk:
    Never has youth been exposed to such dangers of both perversion and arrest as in our own land and day. Increasing urban life with its temptations, prematurities, sedentary occupations, and passive stimuli just when an active life is most needed, early emancipation and a lessening sense for both duty and discipline, the haste to know and do all befitting man’s estate before its time, the mad rush for sudden wealth and the reckless fashions set by its gilded youth–all these lack some of the regulatives they still have in older lands with more conservative conditions.

      I love this: “They talk as if they knew everything, and what passes for wisdom with us is foolishness with them. As for the girls, they are forward, immodest and unladylike in speech, behavior and dress.”
      
      I wake every day wielding a hairbrush. And trying to make them look respectable. They seem not to care. Until the age of thirteen.
      
      “The, mad rush for sudden wealth”: Started with the Millennium Generation. I am Gen X and I had to claw my way.
      Now I find that what I have earned by my own efforts might be taken from me. By Labour and other assorted buffoons.

  Apparently this crime is all caused by poverty.
  
  Nope: shitty decisions get you into the court house and shitty decisions get you into poverty. They also get you pregnant and lead to poor health outcomes and all the other negative indicators in society.
  
  There is a common thread, it is not A causes B, but Z causes both A and B (and C, D, E…).
  
  We could make the observation that if you eat lots of KFC your car is likely to fail its WOF.
  
  Do the chicken fumes in KFC cause your tyres to go bald and your headlight bulbs to pop? The engineer in me says no.
  
  Or maybe the causal relationship is the other way: failing WOF causes people to get depressed and go hit a big bucket of KFC. Maybe, I’m not a psychologist.
  
  But more likely KFC is prefered by a certain sector of society that also tend to be less well off and have older less well maintained cars.
  
  Be careful about how you abuse causal links.

Whats that secret she is keeping about Jacinda Ardern. That is the only reason Clare Curran didnt get a DCM from the Peters selected NZS PM Ardern.
There was Curran running a clandestine type of meetings with well known NZs in broadcasting ,yet failed to reveal the meetings.
Goody two shoes Ardern fearful,of what sneaky Curran would reveal about her, decided to give her a Claytons demotion on full status and still a Minister. What an indictment of a woman like Ardern out of her depth as a” Leader”.
Certainly not difficult to see why NZs well being and lifestyle is turning into a cot case and an International joke.

  From a totally cynical position Oldpark, I believe Cindy is loathed to get rid of Curran because she is a woman. We have had Cindy and the media in general, telling us all that the PM is wonder woman personified and a poster child of the feminism movement. Now how would it look if her first decisive ‘I’m in charge’ move as PM is to get rid of a fellow sister cabinet MP?….now if Curran was a male you can bet the farm on ‘him’ being stripped of all portfolios and demoted to the back bench!

    Yes, Cindy is “loathed” in many quarters – however, whether or not she’s “loath” to get rid of Curran is a horse of a different colour.
    
    Sorry to appear smart-ass, but the two words are often confused. The difference is explained here. http://grammarguide.copydesk.org/2005/07/25/i-am-loath-to-loathe/

  Curran was the bag carrier when Labour went begging at Dot Crim’s mansion in 2014. Many Labour and Union executives will be shitting themselves if Curran was to start singing, even to the extent of wondering if ankle bracelets would interfere in their normal day to day troughing.

Have just heard a clip of Simon Bridges on RNZ news. I really want to like and admire and support Bridges but surely it’s time his mother told him that he sounds like a caricature- his speech is appalling and he will not make any impact whilst he sounds like a boy from hicksville. Oi this and Oi that. Do something about it, Soimon. You sound bloody ridiculous.

  I, too, wince every time I hear expostulations like:

  National’s caucus showed the depth of their flaws in being unable to see that no one of such diction could ever swing the country – but perhaps they were blinded by the incredible “success” of someone as inexperienced and depthless as Jacinda.

Monique got similar issues. We allow phone for an hour in the evening wifi off at 6.30. He still gets to watch f**kwit memes on tv till bed. If his behaviour at school merits it, he gets to take it to school following day, if not he’s on a ban, until he gets good report. decided his phone is a ;loaded gun’ after his ‘girlfriend’ fucked his head claiming she’d self-harm and ‘end it all’ one fine Saturday evening . They are 12 ffs. Keep them off instagram and watch the messaging.
Find out what it is that they love, and take it away from them. It is the only language they understand.
That and the occasional hug.

Maybe we should set up a blog. gotta go to work now..

  Wow! I remember my brother having a girlfriend who did that, threatened self-harm and snorted a asthma inhaler. In Dunedin. Hubby and I raised him when he was sixteen and we were 21.
  He’s grown up so handsome and has worked on some impressive oil and gas projects. Including the Aasta Hansteen spar:

  He’s a great worker with morals which is what I want for my kids.
  
  Fortunately my boys aren’t into girls or any other experimenting. I’m always sussing out their friends and can sniff a ‘bad kid’ a mile out. And even though their screen use is off the charts, they’ve got good grades. We can only try our best, right?

Could this be worse than the ‘Leaky Buildings’ disaster?

The NZH reports…. ‘ that work on the big Alexander Park apartment project was halted for three months, due to lack of inspections relating to quality assurance and documentation issues with the erection of structural steel by the contractors….It has been confirmed that steel from China was being used on the job but was subject to robust quality assurance…….blah, blah, blah.’

I pity the poor purchasers who bought off the plans – this sort of publicity and subsequent delays are never reassuring. A friend of my missus is an REA and she was saying there are a number of people that she knows who would like to on-sell their contracts, even if it means taking a hit at this stage.

The other thing that must be a worry, are the reports that we are to bring in hundreds of Chinese tradesmen to work on a number of other huge projects here in Auckland. What sort of scrutiny will they be subjected to in order to verify their trade credentials?

If this report out of China last month is any indication…….watch out below!!

So I see Jessica Mutch “political commentator” has married Jacinda’s body guard. Talk about incestuous in the media. What with Mallard married to the Listener’s “political commentator” and now this. There must be some very juicy pillow talk. As a matter of interest is there a political commentator married to a Nat?

It is a naive oversimplification to think the escalating South African situation is Black vs White.

South Africa is tribal, not racial. As my father (rot his bones) used to say: We all live here at the pleasure of the Zulus.

https://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/mk-vets-dont-dare-touch-us-20180822

The last president, Zuma, was the last of the “Struggle” ANC leaders that got some of the Mandela glow. The new guy, Ramaposa, was not an MK member. That loses him a lot of credibility in the eyes of the ZUlus and the Xhosa.

Worse still, the Zulus and the Xhosa languages do not have the “r” sound in them, so every time they hear CyRil Ramaposa’s name they hear Cylili (not one of us) Lamaposa(not one of us).

The ANC MKvets were the force behind the ANC, but are now the biggest thorn in its side – particularly the Zulu and Xhosa vets.

  Tribalism aside the biggest problem facing South Africa is the consequences of the failed education system. It’s only 24-26% effective up to high school level, so only an increasingly smaller percentage of the population are productive or even employable. A big chunk of that top tier of irrespective of race are fleeing for foreign shores as soon as they are able.

    South Africa has tribalism. It also has a failed education system. It also has a failed electric system. It also has all sorts of nasty beasties that are out to kill you.
    
    As much as I like to put the boot in on teachers, I don’t think you can blame tribalism on failed education any more than you can blame mambas on the failed electric grid.
    
    Tribalism (and genocide) have been part of Africa since forever. It is only the last 200-odd years of colonialism that have moderated this effect.
    
    My grandfather was a commissioner in South West Africa (now Namibia) for the SA/British government. He pretty much spent his whole time there traveling between the various tribes to keep the peace and stop them killing each other. That was one shitty job – travelling around in 50 degree heat with an ox wagon with no air conditioning etc.
    
    Now we’re seeing South Africa going back to the post-colonial phase: back comes the tribalism and off go the lights.
    
    It was no surprise to me that the first thing that happened when Mugabe took over Zimbabwe was a massive ethnic cleansing.

        “didnt appear to happen under Mandela”.
        
        Lots of violence happened under Mandela, but I will grant you it has got much worse since then.
        
        Mandela had been hyped up as a near deity. Everyone was trying to Rainbow Nation on the expectation that his promises would work out. But they didn’t and that frustration sowed a lot of seeds.

      Tribalism (and genocide) have been part of Africa since forever.
      
      It’s been part of the world since forever, cmm. The last 1000 years of European history is riddled with it. As you well know, the Zulu and Xhosa “tribes” are ethnic groups of millions of people – similar populations or larger than “tribes” like Belgium, Greece, Czech Republic, Austria, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, or Hungary. Just look at what happened in Yugoslavia when the Soviet Union dissolved, or the decades of Irish troubles (let alone two major World Wars).
      All I am saying is let’s not get too holier-than-thou.

        I’m certainly not getting holier than thou and not at all suggesting that only black people are tribal.
        
        Yes, we’re all tribal to an extent, but that extent is very different with very different consequences. Tribalism in New Zealand just means people put on different colour rugby togs, in South Africa it underpins just about everything – including increasing your chance of being killed.
        
        I am by no means suggesting that whites are homogeneous. They are not even homogenous within, say,a relatively small group like the white Afrikaners in South Africa where the people in the north do not consider those in the south real boers.

      My Grandfather left Capetown in 1919. He was a farmer – dairy and drystock. He gave the animals to the neighbours and walked off the land. I guess he had had enough of the shit happening all around him. Came to NZ and farmed in Reporoa. I never met him, he died before I was born. I have no desire to go to Sth Africa, it is a shithole now.

Anyone else notice television’s two weekend current affairs show’s coverage of the Clare Curran issue?

TV3 Newshub: No mention at all
TV 1 Q&A: 10 second reference at the start of show and 30 second mention at the end

A Cabinet minister has been found to have lied twice about private meetings and this is the extent of the coverage of it by NZ TV’s only political current affairs shows.

Disgraceful and party-political partisan.

Pope Francis complicit in covering up Cardinal Mccarrick’s predation….

https://i.stuff.co.nz/world/europe/106582873/former-vatican-envoy-says-pope-complicit-in-abuse-coverup

As a Catholic, all I can see is that the church hierarchy is rotten to the core. The only way out is for the church to allow priests to marry.

    It’s a homosexual problem.
    
    Cardinal Raymond Burke: It was clear after the studies following the 2002 sexual abuse crisis that most of the acts of abuse were in fact homosexual acts committed with adolescent young men. There was a studied attempt to either overlook or to deny this. Now it seems clear in light of these recent terrible scandals that indeed there is a homosexual culture, not only among the clergy but even within the hierarchy, which needs to be purified at the root. It is of course a tendency that is disordered.

    “Largely it’s not a pedophile crisis,” [Attorney and international child rights advocate Liz Yore] said. “We know from the John Jay report, 81-percent of the victims were males, mostly teens. And we know because our subclass of predators are all male, this is a male-on-male crime, and primarily with teens between the ages of 14 to 17. Those are the victims.”

    They’re not paedos HS – they’re homosexuals. 85% of offences were against post-pubescent youth, and young adults, and around 7% against young women.
    Check the John Jay report from 2002 – 2006.

  Having a married clergy is not the answer. The answer is to clean out the Homo Mafia that has penetrated the Church to the highest level.
  Google Bella Dodd and that will give you the answer. She was a communist plant by Stalin into the USA around 1920, with the commission to train young communist homosexuals to enter the Church for the priesthood. We see how successful she was, with the third generation now in poosoitions of authority. Fortunately there are many good men who have been fighting back over the past decade or two – we’re now about to see a real cleansing of the Church.

      Spot on nasska. The Catholic Church possibly deserves the fate of the 1940s Nazi Party, to be suppressed as an inherently criminal organisation. But that would only create a new sense of martyrdom for starry-eyed morons like Don the Fuckwit, who has possibly imbibed more than his fair share of Jesus’s body fluids over the years.
      There is no level of depravity or cruelty within that church that Donny will not be able to pin on some group he despises, rather than fronting up to the inherent defects in his own weird cult.

        milky, The Catholic Church and Hitler were great buddies. In Croatia even the clergy joined in the slaughter. I will spare you the descriptions, but Hitler implored them to use more humane means in achieving their goals! Then they went at it again in the 90’s.
        
        “I have followed [the Church] in giving our party program the
        character of unalterable finality, like the Creed. The Church has
        never allowed the Creed to be interfered with. It is fifteen hundred
        years since it was formulated, but every suggestion for its
        amendment, every logical criticism, or attack on it, has been
        rejected. The Church has realized that anything and everything can be
        built up on a document of that sort, no matter how contradictory or
        irreconcilable with it. The faithful will swallow it whole, so long
        as logical reasoning is never allowed to be brought to bear on it.”

    So the god nut wants us to persecute the gays like in the old days.
    
    https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2018/03/30/jesus-was-a-gay-genderfluid-drag-king-says-college-professor/
    Jesus Christ was a genderfluid drag king who had sex with men.
    
    According to student Elinor Reilly, a senior writing in the college’s student journal, the professor writes that “what we have in John’s Jesus is not only a ‘king of Israel’ or ‘king of the [Jews]’, but also a drag king.”
    
    He later states that Jesus “ends up appearing as a drag-kingly bride in his passion.”
    
    “What I am suggesting is,” he continues, “when Jesus’ body is being penetrated, his thoughts are on his Father.
    
    “He is, in other words, imagining his passion experience as a (masochistic?) sexual relation with his own Father.”

      I said nothing about persecuting gays – simply remove their perverted influence in the Church. What they do otherwise id their problem. As for the view of your Elinor Reilly, she is entitled to her view, even if it is demonstrably false, as proven by history without the dingbats who provide her material.

Within 20 seconds of its article on John McCain by Simon (Nasty) Marks it turned into a hit job on Trump.
Also they are trying a Hit Job on Simon Bridges. It seems that the Ducks are lining up in the wrong direction for Cindy in regards to this leak. Simon, between constant interruptions, set out the timeline.
1. Speaker gets Email
2. Speaker still confirms investigation
3, PM has meeting with her ex-Flatmate
4. PM contacts speaker
5. Speaker stops Investigation
6. Flatmate slapped with wet bus ticket
7. MSM kills story

      He doesn’t and he never will, Trump was drafted when he was midway through Uni, when he was finished he did a physical and the medicals found bone spurs in his feet, I have one in my achilles and it hurts like f-ck, the doctors gave him a 1-Y meaning he could be drafted but he was undesirable for long term service. They then brought in the lottery draft and Trump got a number 356 which meant it was never pulled out. Bill Clinton was a draft dodger.

Why do we need so many Ministers in the NZ Cabinet?

Australia has 25, UK has 21 but down here we presently seem incapable of running the show without the necessary 32.

  Not quite KW, a UK govt has circa 20 in cabinet, but there is another 100 or so ministers outside cabinet, junior ministers, parliamentary secretaries and under secretaries. A UK govt has over 320 members, so the PM has to keep those MPs seeking power busy, else they cause trouble plotting and talking to the media.

  NZ has nineteen, four of whom are NZF. There are also nine ministers outside cabinet including three Greens and the recently demoted Curran. They are not bound by collective cabinet responsibility because they are on the outside with no say on the big decisions.

Saturday was a case of plans on a lifestyle block change in line with mother nature. Planned to do some garden construction/gardening. However, get a phone call, one of our ewes is in labour (our sheep are on a friends property doing some non-mechanical lawn mowing while our grass recovers). Two hours later we have 2 more lambs (one of each sex).

Wife and friend witness all this and wife says we should call the mother Jacinda. She put it like this, an hour of hard labour giving birth, 15 minutes Tues cleaning/bonding with the lambs, gets up flops her tits out for the lambs to suck on and then tells the rest of the flock at the top of her voice “look at me, 2 lambs.” And then goes back to work eating five minutes later.

That’s a Jacinda for you, tells you for months she’s pregnant, drops her load, tells the world, and then goes back to work….

Wing flaps gone, and I know from knowing engineers and aviation experts that this was a fucking nightmare, but he bought it down. Destination Leeds but he took it into Manchester. Coasted the whole runway. Six fire engines greeted the plane to spray it down.

$67 million for a 4m wide 1km long walkway under the east side of the Auckland harbour bridge. That is $15k/m², quite unbelievably expensive. Why can’t they just build it like any other steel walkway for <10% of that? Fabricated steel construction out of China costs about $2000/kg. To get a probably less than 2-400 tonne walkway like that fabricated (ex China) would cost less than $1million + some fitment costs. It doesn't need to be flash, just a roofed walkway with steel mesh 'windows' to prevent jumpers. Not $14 per New Zealander. Someone is making out like a bandit on this.

DFA research was featured in a number of the weekend papers, discussing the rising number of mortgage loan applications which are being rejected by lenders due to tighter lending standards, meaning that many households are unable to access the low refinance rates currently on offer. … read more via hyperlink above …

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-08-26/stunning-reversal-michael-cohens-attorney-backpedals-trump-russia-claims

This is classic media. Lanny Davis Clinton’s lawyer and now Cohen’s lawyer said Cohen had said two things:

Trump knew Trump Jr met a Russian

Trump had foreknowledge of a Russian ‘hack’ of the DNC.

Media goes crazy broadcasting it. Wall to wall coverage.

Today Lanny says neither of those two things are true. Media put it on page 100 in a teeny tiny corner.

So now everyone goes into the midterms believing a lie. People also gave hundreds of thousands to Cohen’s gofundme on the basis of lies.

Absolutely classic. The media everywhere truly are the enemies of the people.

http://m.ncregister.com/daily-news/ex-nuncio-accuses-pope-francis-of-failing-to-act-on-mccarricks-abuse#.W4Kcc3OubZ8

Also looks like the pope is the Lavender Pope after all. I think most people knew this. His thousands of years of precedent ending garblefarb about the death penalty was to save his own neck. Gay people run the church now as a sauna. Oh well. What can you do. I guess it just makes the church even more holy. Just remember the catholic churches pederasty problem is a gay problem first and foremost. It’s always fun to read that the culprit is ‘clericism’ and ‘the confessional’ as opposed to gay people. After all then the only answer is to ens the confessional (and thus the religion) and out lay people Briaana Wu’s in charge for social justice!

But im sure it’s just racism sexism and phobias. Who could possibly say?

    You’re not even wrong. Guys n the seminary in Australia told me it is extremely gay to the point of tragi-comedy and yes, sanctified water was used in a sauna for steam. Guys go into the seminary, are turned gay, and then come out and paint themselves vermilion purple and Green like Piccolo off Dragon Ball Z and join the police lol.
    
    Its so very depressing. I can’t stand Pope Borgoglio. I hope they nail him but nothing will happen. If gay orgies can take place in the papal apartments used by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith with impunity its over. Hopefully Salvini will get him eventually though.

Floss and unfortunate words from the incompetent PM:
https://www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/364912/rugby-needs-to-be-more-inclusive-to-deserve-title-of-national-sport-pm

Talking to a packed conference room at New Zealand Rugby’s first ever Women in Governance Conference in central Auckland this morning, Jacinda Ardern said rugby needs to “be a game for everyone, and that includes women”.

Ms Ardern said, when asked for clarification, she believed rugby does currently deserve to be called New Zealand’s national sport, ” but with that title we need to make sure we’re striving to lift the outcomes for women in sport as well”.

  Applogise for being a man. Also pay every Black Fern like Daniel Carter or you’re a misogynist.
  
  Labour’s Crosby Textor are making a very hard play for the fenale vote. This is as hard a gender identity political play as you can make in New Zealand.
  
  And who could oppose it? Good on Jacinda I say. Every woman has to be paid as much as the highest paid man in her respective field or its sexist.

Tomorrow on RNZ’s 9 to noon, Andy Little will be interviewed giving bra fitting advice for Maori women. Spoiler: Just put on a 12B and blame colonialism if it doesn’t fit.

Naah, just joking….

What IS happening is far less believable:

Jacinda is going to be interviewed to “address business confidence”. What RNZ and Jacinda would know about business confidence wouldn’t fill a matchbox. No doubt it is something to do with old white men, who run the majority of businesses, being racist and sexist.

This also follows an announcement by China’s central bank regarding the yuan’s daily midpoint the same day.

To be precise, the title in English really ought to be Crazy Rich Chinese. (Since the cast and story characters are exclusively Chinese.)

      The Christian Chin people of Burma have been persecuted and hounded in Burma since the 1960s.
      
      Only when the country’s Muslim minority is persecuted does the international refugee-aid world fully swing into action.
      
      The Karen people, about 15 per cent of whom are Christian, have also been persecuted by the Burmese Government since independence at the end of World War 2.

I saw some stupid female teachers on the Herald this morning wanting extra funding to teach Maori in schools to Maori.
They then went on to say that Maori students even struggle with numbers!
How many numbers are there really – 100?
And if they struggle with that so how can they learn a whole language of 4,000 words.
Better to teach them correct English, pronunciation, grammar, literature, poetry, a trade, and all about birth control.

      Yup police numbers down 10% in last 5 years in London. Not very helpful given increased diversity dividend.

The Pope has told Irish unmarried mothers that it is NOT a MORTAL SIN to search for a child that had been taken from them.

During Mass on Sunday, Pope Francis clarified that it was not a sin for a woman whose child was taken away from her to search for her baby.

“We ask forgiveness for the children who were taken away from their mothers, and for all the times when the single mothers that tried to look for their children that had been taken from them, or to the children who had been taken away from their mothers, were told that it was a mortal sin,” said Francis.

  Perhaps the Pope’s thoughts are lost in translation: why ask forgiveness for the children who were taken away, when it is the barbaric fundamentalists enabled by catholic hypocrisy who snatched babies from their mothers that should be begging forgiveness.

……”Pope Francis clarified that it was not a sin for a woman whose child was taken away from her to search for her baby.”…..

There was slightly less translucence when it came to sorting out his boy bothering mates.

  I think telling mums and kids that it is a mortal sin to search for each other is EVIL incarnate.

The little red hen called all of her neighbours together and said, ‘If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?’

‘Not I,’ said the cow.

‘Not I,’ said the duck.

‘Not I,’ said the pig.

‘Not I,’ said the goose.

‘Then I will do it by myself,’ said the little red hen, and so she did.

The wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain.’Who will help me reap my wheat?’ asked the little red hen.

‘Not I,’ said the duck…

‘Out of my classification,’ said the pig.

‘I’d lose my seniority,’ said the cow.

‘I’d lose my unemployment compensation,’ said the goose.

‘Then I will do it by myself,’ said the little red hen, and so she did.

At last it came time to bake the bread. ‘Who will help me bake the bread?’ asked the little red hen.

‘That would be overtime for me,’ said the cow.

‘I’d lose my welfare benefits,’ said the duck.

‘I’m a dropout and never learned how,’ said the pig.

‘If I’m to be the only helper, that’s discrimination,’ said the goose

‘Then I will do it by myself,’ said the little red hen, and so she did.

The little red hen baked five loaves, and her neighbours wanted some and in fact, demanded a share. But the little red hen said, ‘No, I shall eat all five loaves.’

‘Excess profits!’ cried the cow.’Excess profits!’ cried the cow.

‘Capitalist leech!’ screamed the duck.

‘I demand equal rights!’ yelled the goose.

The pig just grunted in disdain. And they all painted ‘Unfair!’ picket signs and marched around and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.

Then Farmer Jacinda came. She said to the little red hen, ‘You must not be so greedy.’

‘But I earned the bread,’ said the little red hen.’Exactly,’ said Farmer Jacinda. ‘That is what makes our free enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government regulations, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy and idle.’

And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who smiled and clucked, ‘I am grateful, for now I truly understand.’ But her neighbours became quite disappointed in her, since she never again baked bread.

  The last time I gave money to a window washer, I told him he could make very good money as a brick layer.
  He told me he used to do gibbing on minimum wage.
  But now he made more on the dole and washing windows for way less work.

Burmese and Indian pythons in the Florida Everglades are interbreeding and may evolve into a “super snake”.

Worse, because of GLOBAL WARMING, they may move north. It’s true, it’s in Fox News.

Send for DOC. They need to know that in global warming tropical sea snakes will move ashore and colonise Northland, eat Ngapuhi children, roost in marae rafters, and strangle politicians at Waitangi day palaver at the Treaty House.

Alert! We’ve right now got to ride bikes, get rid of plastic bags, stop sheep farting, and stop using coal, gas, petrol, fertiliser and synthetic rubber condoms – or sea snakes will kill us. Meanwhile in America, fucking huge snakes will crush locals and tourists and swallow them whole!

Time to reflect – I know most journos read this blog, so I trust they might, just maybe, see the following for what it is –
In less than a year, this is just a sample of what Labour, NZF and the Greens have done for New Zealand (and in no particular order):
1. Remove sanctions for the dole
2. Destroyed confidence and investment in the New Zealand oil and gas industry, which will ultimately increase our CO2 emissions as we will need to import
3. Enabled union strike action that in the last nine months is 300% greater than what we have had in the last NINE years
4. Call for ALL prisons to be closed down by 2040 – with no regards for the feelings of victims
5. Create over 100 committees and working inquiries – yet they have had NINE years to formulate policy
6. All-weather horse racing-tracks
7. The former-Minister for Open Transparency loses her portfolio for not being, um, transparent
8. The former-Minister for Digital Communication loses her portfolio for, not sure what, maybe she’s not so well at the moment. Never saw the text
9. Hey, let’s give all prisoners The Vote. That’s the important stuff

Please feel free to add what I have missed.

  -Kiwibuild 10000 homes a year…
  -Planted almost no trees…
  -Took growth from 4+ % to ~2%
  -Ran up huge borrowing ‘off the books’ in SOEs as a fudge.
  >150 committees
  -Killed health statistics measurement, killed charter schools (for no benefit)
  -Did nothing to reduce high regulatory costs of building houses – some incredibly easy low hanging fruit there.

    I am tempted to create a list of all the committees that the CoL has created, along with members, terms of reference and costs etc, and then put it on a website. This will no doubt involve a bit of time – if anyone is keen to help let me know.

I’ve finished the transcript and have also now added a PDF for download.

https://katana17.wordpress.com/2018/08/17/australian-senator-fraser-anning-rightly-calls-for-a-final-solution-transcript/

Australian Senator Fraser Anning Rightly Calls for a “Final Solution” — TRANSCRIPT

Fraser Anning, a new Senator in Australia, delivers a stunningly commonsense maiden speech declaring that Australia needs a “final solution” to the immigration crisis that is flooding Australia with non-Whites.

That solution is not the fake “gas chambers” imagery that the jewish controlled screeching media tries to conjure up with his “final solution” term, but simply a referendum asking ordinary Aussies whether they want their country transformed into something unrecognizable with mass non-White immigration, or NOT!

His political goals are:

* to break the oligopoly power of the banks;

* to get a better deal for working families and farmers;

* to achieve major infrastructure development in Far North and Western Queensland;

* to reduce immigration levels and restrict entry to those who will best assimilate;

* to restore personal freedom and free speech;

* to make affordable home ownership a national priority;

* to counter the growing threat of China both outside and within Australia;

* to slash runaway government spending and, with it, taxes on productive enterprises;

* to build coal-fired power stations to return us to the cheapest power in the world;

* to slash the regulatory burden that is crippling the general aviation industry; and;

* to take back our culture from the left-wing extremists.

If you were to ask a similar type of question to the inhabitants of India, China, Korea, Japan, various African countries, etc., whether they wanted their countries flooded with racial and cultural aliens, they would all resoundingly answer NO!

It is only in White countries under total jewish media control, that such a question is forbidden, because (((they))) know that the answer would also be a resounding NO!

Fraser Anning has demonstrated with his speech, if not in deed, that he is putting real Aussies, Whites, first, rather than being a toady to an (((alien force))) that is out to destroy White countries throughout the world. Let’s hope he carries through his rhetoric with real action.

— KATANA.
