Luxon is still taking the money. He is still costing the public more at a time when he's telling everyone else to accept less. 2. The more a nation relies on charity, the more it fails. Luxon is exacerbating failure. 3. Luxon's "largesse" is a tacit ...
Man boob skites.
Onslow Lake hydro project, future-proofing the nation's electricity supply - canned.
“. . . a bizarrely regressive thing to do.” Luxon mocked (already) on the BBC Radio 4 The Now Show, 1 December, “looking into the repeal of the New Zealand smoking ban.” https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001sv8y (from the 18 minute mark.)

It’s Paula, with an unkempt rug.
Thanks, Millsy, for drawing attention to the often-overlooked changes made at the Public Trust. Other overlooked "indirect" taxes introduced under the National party-led government during the last nine years include the Telecommunications Development Levy ...

Lest we forget . . . After John Key participated in jail rape jokes on radio, Rob McCann, the White Ribbon manager, was interviewed on Radio NZ. http://www.radionz.co.nz/audio/player?audio_id=201783634 Astonishingly, McCann went about trying to make what ...

Key is acting like a dictator Napoleonesque in his attitude. When does he intent his coronation? And will he crown himself like his obvious idol? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronation_of_Napoleon_I Unfortunately for Key - we are not yet a Republic.
Well summed up izzy. He is now simply a mouth piece for the Hawks... Sad.
The illegality of this is mind blowing.... We learn now that Key has indeed given himself the powers of an Emperor - even if he hasn't as yet declared himself as one.
Key needs to look more "Presidential" - so he has to behave as if it's his divine right - I wonder how long before he decides to make himself Emperor?
Yeah! Good to see. Image is so important. Gotta make him LOOK the part... Pity he can't ACT the part..
"people will deal with it then" You have NO IDEA!! Far too late to be dealing with AGW in 10 or 20 or 30 years time mate! The Earth will continue to heat for years after we cease burning fossil fuels. In fact the time to deal with the problem was 20+ years...
hehe love your style QT :) You summation of Goosy is superb. We can do without him. And +1 to what Draco says

I retired from the RNZN some years back so really am in position to answer as to what is the state of current morale, within the service. I understand that there is a huge turnover at the present time - mostly connected with current pay rates and ...

As a retired naval officer, and having worked for a number of years in what was then personnel (- now called HR) I really appreciate this post. It was always a concern for me that although most senior and middle management officers had the best interests ...
Probably not. :( Have they taken the chance to do anything positive? I gave my candidate vote to a Maori Party Candidate once - I was voting in the Helensville Electorate at the time, and knew the MP candidate personally. But the promise the party had in ...

Wayne - FYI every person, including those who pay heaps to accountants so that they can avoid paying, are taxpayers (their tax is the cost of the accountant). If every household is given a standard allocation of electricity per year - then this is an ...
Yes they are, and my daughter has already roped me into her activism :)
2 degrees is well and truly in the rear view mirror :( It's looking more and more like 4 degrees at the very least and that's not including any feedbacks. Just what the PowerShift generation will inherit seems more and more bleak by the day. This recent ...
Yes I think that the membership of Dunedin South should be, taking their representative in hand, and explaining a few facts of life. The damage that this stupidity is causing is getting out of hand.
