Might work better if I put the link in.

More and more people know that JacindaÔÇÖs COVID response is a grand illusion. Nearly every day brings another even more bizarre disaster, showing we benefited from good luck rather than good management."

Really David? You've somehow managed to completely avoid how well we've done, despite mistakes, when compared to most countries?



"that great feminist organisation called the Taliban gave a New Zealand woman asylum from the policies of her own Government."

And has it occurred to you to ask why that might possibly be, David? Have you any clue what's happening there, how desperate things are?

To the extent that families are selling their children. Girls only, of course.

Its therefore extremely likely that those vile butchers desperately need some good publicity, need to be seen doing something - kind - & I'm aware that the right now have an aversion to that word, but that is what they need to pretend to be in order to get help from western countries before their entire country goes down the gurgler.


"Labour said they would put children at the centre of everything. Then they changed the Oranga Tamariki Act so that children are reverse uplifted from safe loving houses if the foster parents are the wrong race."

NOT entirely the case is it -  as you surely must know there's far more to it than that.

While I admire you for getting the EOL bill across the line, that's where it ends. Because this speech shows that really you're after all, no more than a politician who's willing to twist things to push their agenda.

Fixed that post up for you, happens when you start typing in between or after text that is already larger in size, possibly after a cut an paste

You can use the Text Size button in the editor (the Capital A, with the red up and down arrow) to change the size of any text you select eg words paragraphs etc
