Every MSM site I have visited this morning has a similar headline, "What Happens Next" and a mostly made up story about the future after the Cannabis and Euthanasia referenda.
We all know what happens next because we all lived through the last three years.
What happens next will be exactly what has happened to every single thing the Labour (led?) Government has attempted to do.
They'll fuck it up!
Via Breaking Views I note this story refuting alarmist rubbish about all the world's beaches eroding due to climate change.
It appears the vast majority are doing no such thing BUT .... it appears beaches <i>near marine protection zones</i> are eroding quickly.
Could the reason for this be that in these areas, far more than other areas, greenie nutters have put measures in place to "protect" the beaches?
Is the Law that states <i>For Every Greenie Action There is an Equal and Opposite Result</i> being seen one again in action?
You have police actively working with scum to break the laws of New Zealand during the house arrest and then wonder why those scum have no respect for the police?
Doomed I tell you. DOOOOOOOOMED!
I continue to read "Where we went wrong" posits from National people. The latest From Veteran at No Minister.
Trouble is each and every one I've read so far gets it wrong, very wrong.
National finds itself in the position it's in, not because it offered the voter the wrong thing but because it offered the voter nothing.
When New Zealand needed leaders, needed politicians to stand up and point out the realities of the reaction to the Covid virus, National hid under it's bed.
Occasionally someone would put his (always "his", shamefully no sheila ever did) head up and state the truth.
Labour, led by the slime, would immediately attack that truth-teller lest the public started to learn the facts and, importantly, that truth-teller would then be abandoned by his National colleagues, thrown to the wolves.
The changing of "leaders" had no effect what-so-ever, Soimon, Todd and Judith showing zero leadership between them.
At no point did National actually stand up and say "NO", point out why and demonstrate the correct way forward for the people of New Zealand.
Never, not once, did National even show signs they were a able to do better, in fact not once did they show signs they could do anything at all.
The only pollie who consistently presented the facts was the actual (unpaid as such) Leader of the Opposition, David Seymour.
New Zealand went into the 2020 election with only two genuine alternatives, Labour and ACT.
Nation got the tribal vote and some protest votes.
Until New Zealand is presented with at least two main-stream parties with alternative views and prospective actions we are doomed to remain the Democratic Socialist Pacific Peoples Republic of Ao-whatever-the f@#k-it-is.
DOOMED indeed!
Let's get one thing straight: NZ Idiots have given Labour a three year (minimum) dictatorship.
Denial won't change that.
They can do what they want for three years.
The only handbrakes are their own incompetence (legion) and their desire, if they cannot prevent a further election, to be re-elected in 2003.
The latter they'll do their very best to avoid, altering law after law to make it impossible to stand, let alone campaign, against them.
One thing you can guarantee: Free speech will be a thing of the past within 12 months and all left-wing parties will be tax-payer funded before 2022.
The coming depression will see the hand-outs to buy the 2020 election cease but, along with the three year election campaign, they won't be needed, opposition and criticism will be illegal.
Meantime watch a series of wealth-creators to vacate the country, the $NZD tank and costs rise dramatically.
If you have Kiwisaver, kiss it goodbye. The gummint needs the money.
Those now saying things like "Bbbbbbut, Labour doesn't have a mandate (Farrar from Kiwiblog is the latest I've read) because they campaigned on how they personally saved 1,000,000 lives by destroying the economy locking down the country, not putting forward a single policy, are tilting at windmills.
Your (yes YOUR) failure to demand rightwing politicians (except Seymoure) stand up and point out the faults in Covid reactions and to highlight the correct, responsible responses to the public has seen the communists elected with a working majority.
Shame on you!
HDPA wants to let immigrants in to pick fruit.
It seems that fruit growers cannot get enough workers and HDPA claims it's not fair to expect unemployed NZers to go and work for a month or so.
Why?
Leaving aside that it would be unfair to the growers to have to employ wielders of bullwhips and cattle prods to actually get the bastards on the job and working why is it unfair to expect every man (and solo mum) to do their duty and actually benefit the country that pays their way?
Communism demands that everybody is equal.
The bastards voted for communism, make the lazy pricks do their equal share of the work!
At least something positive.
From here.
If he ended up in Parliament, Waititi promised he would make changes in the “system” he says keeps Māori “in second place”.
I applaud Mr Waititi.
Mr Waititi taking his group of Maori back to 20th place where the bone-idle lazy, constant hand-out, miserable racist bastards deserve to be is an admirable, if somewhat surprising, ambition.
A few expectations if the wrong result is declared tonight:
The free-everything for Maori and the bone-idle lazy will increase exponentially.
Basically you'll be working for the lazy bastards so they don't have to.
Taxes on working people and the productive sector will double within 12 months - to pay for the above.
House prices will collapse in most areas, particularly areas large groups of taxpayers want to emigrate from.
Immigration of the lazy and the violent will be increased dramatically - basically, if you have a brown skin and nothing you're in - "Here's your free house and car".
Open road speeds will be reduced to 70 - 80 kph, city speeds to a universal 30kph.
Maori will be encouraged to claim everything, including water, air, the sea and all land.
New Zealand will be renamed, first Ao-whatever the hell it is and then, within two years, The Pacific People's Paradise of Venezuela.
God Defend New Zealand!
I have been away covering much of the South Island. Today I head North.
This spring is certainly providing interest, in the last few days I have encountered a lot of rain, snow and hail interspersed with patches of sunshine accompanied by freezing-cold gale-force winds.
Just a normal week in spring in the South Island then. Where the hell is this bloody global warming?
One thing I have noticed is that the driving standards on the roads is as bad, if not worse, than before the Panic even though traffic is considerably lighter.
Maybe it wasn't the Asian tourists after all.
New Zealand sometime time in the next three years - and remember, we can't walk to the nearest country.
We'll be stuck here - suffering!
Climate alarmist lies are competing with Covid alarmist lies for headlines.
Reading the MSM around the world is becoming fun.
I bring your attention to probably the stupidest thing I have ever seen in print - and I have seen current Labour party ad's.
I read this off Newstalk ZB but it is a NZ Herald piece copied from Star News.
The piece: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/ridiculous-bid-to-open-third-bottle-store-in-200-metre-stretch-in-christchurch-suburb/UN4J3K255LVD2G73DMEXRLEWP4/
The article is about the proposal to put a bottle shop in a large exclusively shopping area.
The proponent has made a commercial decision that the closeness of two existing liquor outlets is not of concern.
But Bea Gooding of Star News obviously objects, quoting one local worrying about the usual "there's a bus stop nearby where children get on busses" as his reason.
That these children have already walked past a mall containing two supermarkets selling booze plus (probably) at least one other liquor outlet does not appear germane.
The facts of the matter is that a businessman has decided to start another business in a designated shopping area, selling a legal product that some do-gooder busy-body doesn't like and Bea Gooding, cub reporter?, had nothing useful to do so wrote a story about it from the false shock/horror point of view.
Now, to get things straight, I have no problem with people objecting to anything they wish. What I have a problem with is the slime, and it's anti-anything even slightly enjoyable stance, publicising such a silly objection to create weight for that stupidity.
Newstalk ZB, NZ Herald and Bea Gooding, it's been done before, better, and was as bloody stupid then as it is now!
The MSM attack on National continues unabated.
Innuendo through to outright lies are presented as headlines through most of the NZ MSM sites, Judith of course, the main target.
Only Trump, telling the truth for a change, gets similar negative feed - while his senile opponent gets a free ride.
You'd think we got to vote in both elections. 😊
Those in-house polls must be frightening indeed for the current clowns and their masters!
Each morning while enjoying my first coffee and breakfast I visit several "news" sites.
This morning has been interesting indeed, with those organisations demonstrating in their own way their political bias.
None more so than Newsroom which has gone full Pravda, with negative to National, often dubious at best, stories covering the front page.
Has the word gone out that the dictatorship is in trouble?
Notably ACT has, under the leadership of Mr Seymour (de-facto Leader of the Opposition) become relevant for many New Zealand voters.
Mr Seymour has stood alone in detailing the facts about Covid-19, the destruction of New Zealand's economy by the current clowns, the rise of the racists etc. while the main parties have remained mute at best and been overtly complicit at other times.
The slime (MSM) have finally started to awake to the threat Mr Seymour poses to their comfortable communist masters.
Their reaction has been entertaining. More so because everything they throw at ACT and Seymour is quickly rebutted or completely ignored.
The latest attempt at handling ACT and it's enlightened supporters appears to be to ignore the party completely, no doubt hoping New Zealanders will forget ACT completely.
I doubt this will work any better than their other antics.
New Zealand needs ACT to be part of the incoming Government. Desperately!
Only that happening will see a chance, if only a minor one, of New Zealand avoiding Venezuela-like financial ruin in the near future.
Party vote ACT! I shall!
What a shame the communists "leading" (ha, ha) New Zealand will not understand it even if they did read it.
Too much rain in Southland, not enough around the inland border of Otago and Canterbury.
The solution is simple.
The PM is an all seeing, all knowing deity.
Ask it to send the rain north.
The daily headline on MSM sites:
Labour Promises To .........................
Haven't Labour just spent three years doing absolutely nothing positive?
Not a single thing!
How can we expect that will suddenly change?
A headline on a NZ news site reads:
Personally I'll stick to steak and pork chops.
