Question. How many of Rick. Wiz and frank are women? How many have a pay equity battle and have done for years?

How many know what they're talking about?


Answer. None. Thought so.

I’ve got a wife and 2 daughters.

I’m teaching them to work where they are valued and not play the victim.

However my wife and one of my daughters have chosen ‘lower paid’ careers specifically because that are more family inclusive.

The whole pay equity debate fails because it reduced the value of work to simply money.

This is a fake claim because people choose to work at careers based on many other factors - flexibility, stress, physicality, responsibility, happiness, cleanliness, how rewarding, certainty of employment… and money.

Making a pay claim based on only one of many factors for why people choose where they work is why the whole case has no integrity and will be continuously mocked. Supply and demand sets wages.

People don’t have to work in these careers but CHOSE to knowing the pay rate. They chose it as an equal and equitable pay when factoring in all the conditions and employment factors. They knew all this when they take the job.

It’s simply a left personality politics play to divide us into voter groups and then favour them to win votes. And the lefts anti all woman push because the right won’t simply pay a group $13b more proves this.

World leading cleaning requirements has really shown them who’s boss!

Cleanest, greenest place that visitors down want to visit and people living here are flooding away…

Quote it with facts and figure proving I’m lying to support such scandalous claims. Defamation case to admin on the line here

Different interpretations, perspectives and opinions isn’t lying.

Making shit up and calling it fact is

Where and when… quote it with evidence to the contrary or it’s you making shit up


Ps I have never and won’t reported you. I quite like debating your naive view of the world.

Bluster and bumph will get you nowhere.
Please explain clearly and concisely what this pay equity thing is about in your view so we can at least debate it. I still don't see what all the fuss is about but I acknowledge I could be missing something. So much rhetoric about that it's hard to figure out.

Just another attempt to reduce female accountability.

Chose a low paying career? Don’t worry we’ll simply redistribute wealth to make you feel better!

BNZ is the first of the major banks to drop their home loan interest rates before the OCR announcement tomorrow.

Finally, something you and @MrFrankWhite can agree on

I see another 3 year old toddler murdered up North. Our numbers on this are extremely high. And although they have someone arrested, he gets name suppression.
Still no arrests in the Baby Ru case either. I can't really understand how anyone could function in normal day to day life knowing you had done something like this. And more importantly if you were a witness. Some strange loyalties out there for sure.

The latest NZ Crime and Victims Survey shows the number of annual violent crime victims in the year to February was 157,000 - a 15% decrease from October 2023, and a 27% decrease from the peak in June 2024.

Seems keeping more people in prison, cracking down on gangs and more police on the street keeps us safer than ‘defund da police’.

The lefts failed ideology being fixed:

As expected, the Reserve Bank has cut the OCR by 25 basis points to 3.25%. The major banks will most likely announce reductions in mortgage interest rates over the next few days.

Westpac have dropped most of their rates while ANZ, KiwiBank and SBS have dropped their floating rates.

Is the KiwiSaver ‘fiscal hole’ a glitch – or the whole point?

The government’s $3bn saving on KiwiSaver changes may come straight out of workers’ future pay – and it’s no accident.
