Announce protest actions, general chit chat or give your opinion on issues we haven’t covered for the day.

Moderation rules are more lenient for this section, but try and play nicely.

EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.

  1. “IMPARTIAL”????? WHY CAN’T WE GET ANY LOCAL REPORTER TO COVER OUR GISBORNE/NAPIER RAIL LOSS ISSUES? QUOTE RNZ CHARTER; “Radio New Zealand News are vital elements in our programming, providing impartial news and information to New Zealanders every day

  2. NOT the mainstream media:

    ‘CrossTalk on Syria: Path to War’

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNRabl-0yg4

    “The drive towards war against Syria is unmistakable. The pretext is still another alleged chemical attack. As usual no evidence is presented. As usual conclusions are drawn before an independent investigation. But this time there is a difference. Syria can defend itself and it has powerful allies. We live in very dangerous times.

    CrossTalking with Michael Maloof, Joe Lauria, and Richard Murphy.”

  3. So on this Jacinda has taken a firm position, it seems, no more new oil and gas exploration off-shore:

    With the hysterical reactions by the industry, or some within it, and with the ‘outrage’ by the National opposition, we will soon see how this will play out .

    I sense, now NZers will soon realise how ADDICTED they have been and are to fossil fuel use. They may panic and give the Nats a landslide win in 2020, loving their SUVs more than the environment.

    That is just about the truth about most NZers, hypocrites galore, in my humble view, easy to buy with a wad of dollars waved in front of their face, in a country so ‘transparent’ and so ‘not corrupt’, as they claim. Let us see, let us see, how this will play out, especially for this government.

  6. Get this for a third world country, that is NZ Inc, good on to the work by new AAAP spokesperson, who I believe being of good Mexican revolutionary background, is VERY dedicated to raise issues:

    So we have WINZ pay special needs grants for the poor and homeless to live in TENTS!

    Welcome to NZ Inc 2018, a truly ‘developing’ country, not quite there, I suppose.

  12. Hamburg police, like in much of Germany in isolating (kettling in) protesters, so they deal to them individually and isolate them so it is, they also are harsh to dissenting protesters, hence this escalation, it is not good, it is not only the protesters it is also the police at guilt:
