Does it annoy the hell out of you, when someone doesn't use punctuation? Or spell correctly? Doesn't use paragraphs? (a pet hate for me).

Or, what annoys you generally about people.

Tell me your gripes. Unload them all here.

We are witnessing the decline of the Queen now, and the realisation that she isn't going to live forever. A bit like the feelings we have, when we know we are going to lose a parent.

Yes, we know she's an old lady, and it's to be expected, but I feel a sense of sadness of the inevitable.

Are you a royalist? Are you going to feel a sense of sadness when she passes?

Was thinking about my political leaning last night, and would say "anti-National" would be the best descriptor. I've dallied with all the other main parties at some point (except the nutty ones), but never the Nats.

As a youngster, I don't recall politics being discussed in the house. There were just two colours - red and blue. To me, neither of the colours had any connotations associated to them. People might as well have been voting on their favourite hue, and I'm sure some still do.

As a uni student, I was generally apathetic to the whole thing. "He's got a silly name, I'll vote for him." Still didn't have a clue who Mum or Dad voted for, nor did I care.

But then I woke up a little. It quickly became apparent that all politicians have an ulterior motive, but that National's spineless turdingtons were the worst of all. Politics would start to enter discussion around the dining table, and it turned out Mum & Dad were lefties after all. Lefty farmers. Who would have thunk it?


What of you others? Did you grow up in a staunchly one-true-colour household, or was it a bit more organic?

The National Party at its finest, desperately trying to find something it can cling on to with its grubby little fingers. Note to Judith: you can't be critical of something and then say you'd do the same exact thing in the same interview.

'National Party leader Judith Collins has come out firmly against creating a "two-class system" by bringing in vaccine certificates, but she also wants to bring in vaccine certificates.'

Have you watched her rant on YouTube? 

How does one transform from TV news presenter to a radically crazed anti-vax, Sharman-worshipping, wanna-be political party leader??? 

Your thoughts everyone?
