Irrespective of the rights & wrongs of the funding, it is ridiculously inflammatory & inaccurate to make reference to the Da Vinci code & description as secretive. It’s classic media trying to manipulate public opinion with false reporting.
Labour moving into contention but only by cannibalising Te Pati and the Greens at the moment.Stuff

Some discount the polls and they often aren’t directly on the money but there’s been too many now for national to ignore the trend
Will be interesting to watch how the media try to spin it as the economic data improves. Still would like to see Luxon removed.
Just pointing out the recent polling trend. Again, only polling but national not seen as the better option on 15 out of 20 issues shows they’ve got a bit of work to do. I certainly don’t think Luxon has long left as leader of the national party
Luxon reminds me of former Labour leader David Shearer..... nice enough person but with the charisma of a beige coloured suit. Hasn't done a lot right.... nor a lot wrong.... just boring as hell!!!
It's definitely not ridiculous to characterise Opus Dei as secretive. That's the whole schtick.
A CEO said recently we’re referred to as No Zealand by offshore companies. Hard to disagree.Greens announced they are going to cancel all fast track mining consents if they get in.
And this folks is why international companies steer clear of us, why our recession is so deep and long and why our standard of living is falling.
We’re already an international laughing stock on the steer list after Jacinda banned oil exploitation by a non policy whim.
We’re making ourselves uninvestible and locking in structurally long term lower standard of living.
And people blame National. Get used to high poverty rates and poor hospital…
The lefties don’t see it and the correlation with them being poor and struggling.
they don’t get it but no idea why. It’s like a chess game where they simply aren’t capable of thinking more than 1 move ahead.
It's like the narrow minded far right tories on these channels simply aren't capable of realising.....well, basic humanity.

Not sure who the far right tories are that you refer to, however all we’re saying is that policies that promote economic growth will ultimately benefit everyone. You know the old saying - a rising tide lifts all boats. Wiz, myself & the others capable of thinking beyond just ‘taxing success’ are all for basic humanity just as much as you socialists. Sure there’s some out there that aren’t, but that’s not us.It's like the narrow minded far right tories on these channels simply aren't capable of realising.....well, basic humanity.

Good self observation about your own arrogance, I've experienced it many times.
Look you just keep being you, all good, the bitterness evident in your posts indicates it isn’t working out great for you.Good self observation about your own arrogance, I've experienced it many times.
Given that there's an ignorance by yourself and the other tories (it might be too generous to say wilful) of the last 45 years of neoliberalism, and the actions of successive right wing governments and their effects on ordinary New Zealanders, I can provide you with something synonymous to "a rising tide lifts all boats" but more befitting of the policies that your current mob and the ones before them are trying to implement - "The trickle down effect".
A fallacy whereby enriching the wealthy somehow means they pass that wealth down the line
Now that's truly
I'm for mining if it's environmentally responsible. The rising tide lifting all boats allegory is dubious though imo, more often than not the highest boats pull up the ladders and leave everyone else to drown.Greens announced they are going to cancel all fast track mining consents if they get in.

Yep. Pretty evident with this government, at least to those who can see the chess board. Or is it checkers? Hard to tell these days.
