Why Liam Dann’s Gen X pragmatism would be the death of NZ
That’s not a solution, that’s a suicide note to sovereignty. Sometimes pragmatism has its limits and agreeing to property bubble migration settings to justify rupturing our domestic engineering market seems to be that limit.

Green Party List 2017 – why it will be hard to get over 11% in September

CYFs has been remodelled 14 times before this, watching the mainstream media pundits faithfully do their sympathetic head nodding bullshit as the latest bureaucrat is wheeled out to promise a better future, as was seen on The Nation this weekend, is probably the most sickening part of this masquerade.

Letter to the editor – Commission of Inquiry, NOW!
