How odd - a politician not believing a fellow politician! 


And seriously - 'All politicians are mindful of what the public wants??!'

Only if it suits them, though.

"Deputy Prime Minister of New Zealand Winston Peters has been met with boos from the crowd after telling them to "stop the crap".

"You tell me whoever said we're getting rid of the Treaty of Waitangi? Stop the crap," Peters said.

While Peters is being booed, he mentioned Dame Whina Cooper asking the crowd "when she was marching, where were you?" 

"If you think separatism and division is going to take us to 2040, you're dreaming. Let me tell you sunshine, I used to go to a marae where they had tikanga and respect and not you shouting. Get some manners."

The crowd has told Peters to "e noho" (sit down) after he remarked "get an education!" 




Luxon

"When asked why his speech did not focus enough on the treaty, Luxon said the speech was designed to talk about the vision for New Zealand by 2040 and what needs to happen to achieve the vision or start the vision by next term. 

"We should be very proud of the treaty as part of our past, present and future. It's something we're going to continue to work at." 







Speaking to media, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said the Government is not supporting the treaty principles bill beyond the first reading. 

"There is no support, no commitment, no intention to take it beyond that. . . It's been the long-standing commitment of The National Party not to pursue a referdum at all. I appreciate its a different position from the ACT Party and part of that is as a condition of the coalition government, that's what we've agreed to do."



Seymour


"Crowd try to sing down Seymour 



Seymour is refusing to end his speech as a number of the crowd sing ÔÇ£whakarongo e nohoÔÇØ.



This has been going on for some time. 



ÔÇ£You can sing and you can sing and yet you are not going to end an idea by singing anymore than you will with a gun,ÔÇØ he said.

Looks like its come sooner than I expected.

needs to unload on Iran, blow the shit out of them and that will solve a few Middle East headaches. And while they're bombing Iran the 101st Airborne can jump into Yemen and take out the Houthi's. Should be over by lunchtime.

Yeah there'll be a tussle, some US soldiers will die, but that's what they signed up to do.

That will also shut North Korea up, and then the US can go back to propping up NATO who are doing nothing in Europe.

MAGA

..oh yeah, that border. C'mon guys, Abott can't do it all himself. Roll on November.

I suspect he's hit the nail on the head & greed is at the core of this.

"Waitangi day ought to be the day we celebrate the signing of the founding document of our nation. Some years it is a moment to pause to remember the things that unite us as a nation. But some years it emphasizes the things that divide us and this, sadly, is one of those years.

Hi,

I'm looking at replacing my office chair as it is almost at the point of falling apart, and given that i WFH several days a week, having something comfortable is important.

What suggestions do people have or what do you use yourself?

Budget not really an issue unless the options really get up there.

Thanks.
