  1. What a lovely couple…just shows how having a disability does not stop anyone! Sadly all you hear about these days from the media is the John Key types…. privileged people making money off global labour, creating poor laws to make inequality worse by enabling the rise of shell businesses and laws to rip society off and misery like the GFC financial products.

    vs John Key – knighted politician.

    “Ladies and gentlemen, John Key,
    Leader of the National Party
    Prime Minister Of New Zealand since 2008
    Everyone Voted for him without knowing his track record,
    Who he worked for, Where his career originated & how he does business today.
    By the end of this Short Video you will know enough to be able to make an informed decision when voting him in or not again.
    Little Johnny was born in a state house,
    A Son of an alcoholic absentee father
    & guilt provoking mother
    who pins all her hopes on her son,
    living vicariously through him,
    especially because she never had another boy
    and never remarried.
    She then allegedly inherited a large sum
    and allegedly spent much of it on her son.

    John worked for 10 years
    as a New Zealand investment banker
    since the mid 1980’s
    When the market crashed
    he made a killing selling New Zealand dollars.
    He headed offshore In 1995
    working for…

    -Merrill Lynch
    This bank was exposed as the worlds first derivatives traders
    & went bust during the 2008 financial crisis due to its heavy investment in the derivatives market,
    swallowed up BY…

    – The Bank of America
    Which it turns out John Key still has shares in,
    A conflict of interest considering anyone could google the Bank name and “fines”
    to see it’s been fined many times for drug dealing,
    gun running, money laundering & is famous for getting countries into debt,
    Is John Key personally profiting from New Zealand’s growing indebtedness ?
    The Bank of America also has a stake in the military industrial complex
    who’ve profited tremendously after several successive, no end in sight, illegal US wars.
    This gives you an idea of the kind of circles John revolves in.
    John’s worked for Merrill Lynch in Singapore, London, Sydney & …

    -Ireland
    When the “Irish Tiger” economy was kicking off,
    It was allowing “sweet heart” tax breaks
    to big banks and financial institutions
    if they moved their back offices to Ireland,
    So John did, Assisting 15,000 of his clients to Avoid Tax
    the Irish economy was hollowed out with debt,
    collapsing shortly after John skipped the country & put all his money into…

    -“Blind Trusts”
    John Key knows what’s in his blind trusts,
    he’s a bit of a drinker and he let it slip while a bit pissed
    that he owns a vineyard,
    turns out that vineyard is in his blind trust,
    although he claims he doesn’t know what’s in it.
    This is because he has 2 trusts,
    1 blind & 1 not so blind that mirrors the other one.

    He was in charge of business units like
    global foreign exchange
    and European bond and…

    -Derivative Trading
    What is Derivative Trading?
    Basically it’s so complicated that the Auditor general once said something like
    “it’s such a technical area that I can’t understand it,
    so I got KPMG to investigate themselves for me and they assure me it’s all good”
    Recall the great depression?
    Of course not, in the 1920’s you could buy $10 worth of shares for only $1 down
    allowing people to gamble on the stock market at incredible volumes,
    massive amounts of fake money & debt was generated
    and the economy got sucked into it like a black hole.
    To prevent that happening again, a law was crafted called…

    -The Glass Steagall Act
    Which was repealed in 1999 leaving the US derivatives market completely unregulated.
    The New York State gaming Commission tried to regulate it because they saw derivatives as gambling,
    but they were unsuccessful, obviously.

    In 1999 John was legally allowed to sell derivatives in America due to the repeal of Glass Steagall,
    Was invited to represent Merrill Lynch & join the Foreign Exchange Committee
    of the…

    -Federal Reserve Bank of New York
    A private banking cartel that has a monopoly on the supply of money
    and loan it to the US government at interest & more or less control the US government through debt.
    Ownership of the 13 banks with shares in the FED can be traced back to the worlds most ultra intergenerational wealth families, hidden away from public view via an elaborate network of family trusts.

    John Worked there for 2 years and twice undertook management studies at Harvard University in Boston.
    He became known as the smiling assassin by colleagues
    after personally terminating over a hundred employees in one day
    with a big beaming smile, no guilt, no remorse, no conscience, a…

    -Corporate Psychopath
    Charming & enchanting when you first meet them
    But are ultimately shallow and have few meaningful lasting relationships,
    They crave money and power and are willing to sabotage,
    intimidate, manipulate, steal, defame, lie and cheat, shamelessly without guilt,
    Desiring attention & idolization with pathological narcissism & despising criticism,
    Often sexually promiscuous.
    Private prosecutor Graham McCready is including a DVD of
    The Wolf Of Wall Street in his evidence against John Key
    Evidence of the lifestyle & mentality Key & co-workers likely enjoyed on wall street.

    Normally on Wall Street your earnings get paid
    40% Cash,
    40% Stock
    20% Options
    Key demanded to be paid 100% in stock and options
    That’s where his incentive to crime is!
    Imagine the opportunities for insider trading when you literally run the country?
    He tried to flush out commercially sensitive information from the ombudsman when trans-rail was being valued while at the same time owning shares in it!
    John Key just can’t help himself.

    When Key left Wall Street after 6 or 7 years in foreign exchange,
    he was in the tip top of the elite, with roughly 50 million on salary and bonuses,
    -Key refers to his 5 million dollar mansion as the house that Merrol built,
    They had a beach house in Omaha and now have a 3.2 million Hawaii holiday home,
    Only 202,000 people have incomes above 30 Million Dollars
    Roughly 2,000 of those are billionaires,
    -John Says
    “We’re not ridiculously wealthy, there are lots of people not seen on the NBR rich list that have a lot of money.”
    Not counting his blind trusts he could be worth hundreds of millions.
    Is he wall street banker or New Zealand prime minister?

    Jumping forward to the 2008 financial crisis:
    Money Magazine said derivatives were one of the chief causes of the 2008 credit crunch,
    A collapse that happened in the same year we elected John Key
    To handle the debt crisis he helped cause
    as he admitted on breakfast tv!
    And what did he do once elected in order to save us from the debt crisis?
    He borrowed more money than all previous prime ministers combined!
    We’ve gone from 8 billion to over 80 billion so far,
    With 112 Billion worth of derivative debts
    In Off The Books Accounting Since 2011 and growing!
    Key knew about his unauthorized biography long before it was released,
    guess what? It doesn’t even mention the word derivatives once!

    A man of the people you say?
    He’s supposed to be the Member of Parliament for Helensville,
    & lives across town in a 5 million dollar Parnell Mansion he calls “the house that Merrol built”,
    Only had 1 public meeting in his electorate the whole election,
    On the proviso that no one can talk about or criticize him, any other party,
    Or their policy, Or their candidates,
    And guess who was the only person that violated those conditions which John Key himself set up for everyone else? John Key!

    So, let me see if I have this straight,
    he’s a psychopathic narcissistic passive aggressive mamas boy with daddy issues,
    And he has control of a country that has no corruption prevention framework?

    He may have been sent here to destroy this country,
    But it is not yet destroyed & we can change our future if we choose to.
    Sink Team Key and it will deal a crippling blow to the financial elite’s agenda.
    This is Vinny Eastwood, Vote Wisely New Zealand.”

    • Good shit there thanks awfully saveNZ.

      https://thedailyblog.co.nz/2020/08/23/damien-grant-the-curse-of-little-nz/#comment-522693

      “Carpetbagger” yes -John Key was the beginning of NZ being sold out as he was a carpetbagger of the most extreme manner; – and he sold everything he could in the most ‘underhanded manner,’ just look at his record beginning with the sellout of NZ Rail Corporation to Fay’/Richwhite/Wisconsin rail as one example he netted $40 million to be the middleman in that fire sale he brokered while working in New York as a fund manager with NZ connections in 1991.
      He is the lowest form of human we could have ever had to run NZ as PM. Our children and their descendants will all suffer for 50 years for his ruin and sellout of NZ.

      • Thanks for presenting that savenz. We are children when it comes to understanding our position in the world and how our economy works. If we cut out most of the formal education and concentrated on politics, economy, how money works, philosophy and social anthropology we would be preparing youngsters for the real future.

        Seeing that our past has experiences are ignored and have set us up to go along with destroying the planet, destroying the culture of our countries with their interactive relationships in favour of anomic and individualist materialism, setting up another final industrial revolution with robotic takeovers, we will need all our nous to find a place for ourselves in the world. We have just about smart-arsed ourselves out of being. Hope that makes sense, I haven’t time to rewrite it. Time is money you know.

  2. We’ve got thestandard.co.org with a nzd$5000 valuation at best. No revenue, and they’ve got people swarming over it and authors are just memes, I try and warn people about this but people don’t listen because they’re just so fucking stupid.

    Weka’s marketing of the greens on the standard is basically margin trading. So green polls go up because Weka can just lye because she’s got admin keys and can just delete everything so she can just delete what she wants. It’s everything in a democracy that disgusts me and she is everything wrong with The Green Party.

    So she gives you more room if you agree with her and she will ban you if you disagree with her which is the exact same thing as being margin-long does when you collateral is the popular polls themselves. If polls go up praise is heaped on and when polls go down scorn is heaped on just to shield the fragile feelings of the Green Parties comms teams. That’s conductivity and someone thinks this is innovative and wrote it into The Greens constitution. Now every retard runs with this Green politics (doing things different) So then the polls go up and then they’ve been going down. And it keeps going down. And it’s very likely to continue going down because why would anyone want to buy something when the Greens poll above 5% you keep losing money? Is that what everyone is interested in? It’s like subscribe to the standard so you can get poorer and when the rebates happen your missing money out of your wallet.

    The Greens are fundamentally a hard sell. This doesn’t just happen with this project we had the National lead carbon-pricing which I tried to help people not get fucked by. And this one added a governance layer to this other piece of shit and it existed for less than two days making it’s all time high and then all-time low in two days, in the same day. It’s been trading around zero and no one listens.

    -So stop putting money into unaudited contracts

    -Just stop. How many headlines do you need to see where hundreds of millions of dollars are being lost?

    You FOMO’tards and people who just release things to the public with no concern for security are the reason the public is losing money. The Te Ture Whenua Maori Land Reform Act got delayed because Te Ururoa Flavel wanted to get it correct and Ihumatao comes along and everyone loses money hand over fist and everyone’s like Akuna matata.

    We’ve had all the experiment’s bro, we don’t need new ways of losing money. We know how to lose money already; we don’t need new ways of how to lose fucking money.

    So it disgusts me that so many who are supposed to be the gatekeepers and curators of leftwing policy are just happy to see people put money into unaudited contracts. Lose it all by fomo’ing obvious Ponzi schemes and bad projects and I’m like; how the fuck is margin-long-conductivity in a leftwing blog with admin keys and a psyop useful? How the fuck is that good for anything? It’s not, it’s not good for anything.

    Now go look at the polls you idiots.

    Look how wrong the standard is and look how correct TDB is.

    BUT! What can a rightwing ninja do? I sit here and tell the truth and people say that I am an alt-right con job and it’s like okay, interesting, but how many others will tell you the truth?

    Go to any blog on TDB and it will tell you Journalism is the keys to democracy and any Blog you will see the dips in the polls instead of just pumping it all up on hype. Who the fuck does that? Who is more honest in all of New Zealand politics? Who says The Green Party deeps every election except for mino parties who just go to zero. No one in NZ politics says that but me and TDB team. We are the most honest political vehicle in New Zealand but the haters just yell.

    So okay haters. How many more projects is Jacinda going to kick ass on with wonderful up time since winning Her first electorate and who do you think was 40% of Labours marketing for months? Who do you think was number one on policy output and number one for reading giga bytes of big data for months? Who do you think lead the way? Jacinda led the way.

    Everyone in the nation is following. So, it’s like I don’t know how many more months or years go by before people are forced to admit to Martyn Bomber Bradbury that they we’re wrong and apologies. It’s just crazy to me.

    Remember Newyear’s of 2016/17 I made the prediction that Andrew little would step down as Labour leader 2 months before the election and install Jacinda Ardern as Labour leader and would then go on to achieve 37% on election night which would force Winston to go with Aunty Jacinda – go look at the charts and see if I was correct? And yeah, I was mother fucken bang on NASA can calibrate the GPS to my bang oneness.

    Want to do some math? So inflation went up about 2.5% and The Greens have gone down in the polls about 2.5% since September 2017 and I’m like word to the mother fucker. How much more correct do I have to be or how often? I just don’t get it. Facts don’t care about your feelings.

    So, let’s talk about the Greens. You want to buy into Greens policy so what’s the most liquid form to buy into and you want a trading pair. And what Green policy is traded the most? Gender or Public transport? And well it’s public Transport. And what has Public Transport done to Green policy and its introduced New Zealand’s most clean and efficient vehicle fleet. The is a lot of reason to buy into these Green buses just to pump up Green Polling. The most liquid trading pair between public transport and anything else if The Green Party. So people have softly locked there liquidity in public transport and if people want to buy or sell they can and that’s market-making and in the correct hands it’s awesome. There’s 100% up time and no counter party risks it’s just awesomeness, it’s audited and there are no selfies. Just lovely. Organic is most beautiful in my world. This will have a side effect of causing the Greens vote to go up on election night because the more Green Party volunteers get sucked into this trading pair the more volunteers that have The Greens as there primary then the more the more liquidity get dragged into these pairs and there is no greater liquidity pool on the Greens books than public transport.

    So kind of what well will have is the commodification of different industries and sectors that was profitable and defunding the bad and only funding the Green bits.

    So if you take margin traders like New Conservatives and Jamie Lee Rose they’ve got a bit of money and you could say that conspiracy theories are there primary use case today. So I think Margin traders actually make a lot of money in actual commerce and engaging in and using policy is trading. Now I try and encourage people not to trade (Weka) because the reason margin traders are profitable is because they’re so expensive because they feast on traders loses. If traders (voters) didn’t lose then the margin traders (the standard wouldn’t be popular or) wouldn’t be profitable. They’re just eating from the pain of there users.

    I guess Weka could make this weird thesis that everyone can benefit from Green policy in some weird bull run but it never happens. It’s weird because everyone gets wrecked trading except for 1% which is only like 2000-3000 guys, then 9% come out flat and everyone else gets recked. That’s not how to make money properly. Put in extra hours trading you’ll get tired, lose relationship’s, lose money and get rekted. Normal people don’t do that, if they put in extra time doing normal work they get more money.

    So, The Daily Blog fulfills a dream that The Labour Party and The Green Party isn’t smart enough to have. Sir Michael Cullens infectious fiscal conservativism saw trading shares as a solution but retain trading is only a small subset of finance for instance there is about 2 million super contributions every year and they don’t even know how to buy financial products. So okay what about derivatives, bonds, longing, shorting, options, ETFs, REITs and all this other stuff whereas The Greens tried and failed to break this business as usual without even first surveying the market and having even a rudimentary outline of the whole thing and now they’re trying to build other projects on top without even having a proper map and just hopes it will work one day.

    The funny thing is tier 2 and 3 construction is happening more on NZfirsts side than The Greens and NZFirst is trying to build ontop of the twentieth century which is limited and the Greens is trying to ignite a Green industrial revolution that could double the size of thew economy in 10 years making New Zealand recession proof, this can happen with Labour because Labour have better skills, better connectivity and better device and more informed people and better everything. Just better in everyway but once The Greens have a high enough bandwidth, content creation then having even more doesn’t matter because there is no need to attack or cancel anyone when everyone is doing well.

    • Don’t know but I just spent the last 10 minutes fixing up my Paypal account so everything is a-okay in the universe.

    I approve of the current actions are now taken to finally find out about where and how the Covid 19 is spreading in NZ.

    (MOH) Ministry of health has finally come out of the shadows now after a long road we all had to drag this errant health agency forward to the 2020 era.

    Finally now they are out of the twilight zone of the 1970s Rogernomics era that stripped this agency from being a forward thinking health agency that was challenging multinational chemical companies (Dow Chemical, Monstanto and their ‘five sister toxic companies’ to heel from poisoning our NZ population.

    Now Ministry does not even test toxic chemical stored in our adipose (fat) tissues like many other countries do randomly to see how toxic our population actually is.

    I was poisoned on a job in Canada in 1992 and by sample of adipose tissue was sent to Accuchem Laboratories in Texas for chemical analysis The results were devastating as I was full of toxins stored in my fat tissues and spent seven years in a detoxification clinic until the levels were low enough to cope with, so we need to use up to date chemical analysis in 2020 not 1970’s toxic exposure times.

  5. Matthew Parris, UK political commenter on his ideas as a young uni student. He began to think of himself as a Conservative.
    ‘More than anything I think this was a reaction against what appeared to me the shallowness and progressive pretensions of my privileged generation in England. They wanted to be in an elite yet against elitism, unconventional but only in the same way as their friends, politically radical yet from the firm foundation of a prosperity and social order against which they liked to inveigh yet upon which they secretly depended and which, if we were not careful (I thought), could be damaged. And in the end they would all revert to type.
    They have, every one of them.’
    From his book Chance Witness.

    And that sets out the reasons why out of the mouths of babes having a vote at 16, could just make a morass of mixed emotion and information and prejudice which is the sum of a democratic election, even more so.

  6. This from The Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson. Fits in with the piece about Matthew Paris.
    …Will I find dignity in old age when our care system is broken? Why do I have to pay the TV licence when so much on the BBC disregards or insults people like me? Why didn’t the police even bother to look for the man who burgled our house? …

    …Every week, when I sit down to write my Wednesday column in The Telegraph, concerns like those are at the forefront of my mind. I see my job as speaking up for the silent majority, for men and women who lack a voice in a world where, if you don’t subscribe to fashionable left-wing causes, you’re called “inappropriate” or “something-phobic”.
    People like us have been made to feel like a beleaguered minority. But who gave the Conservatives a whacking majority at the general election and protected our country from the lunatic extremism of Jeremy Corbyn? We did.

    Prosecutor Barnaby Hawes told the court Tarrant was amused by what he had done at Al Noor Mosque.

    “The defendant drove away at a high speed. During this journey the defendant was talking and laughing about various aspects of what had occurred and what was occurring as a form of commentary.”
    Planning and reconnaissance

    The summary revealed Tarrant modified his high-powered rifles, purchased legally using a New Zealand firearms licence.

    He utilised military-specification sighting systems and telescopic sights. He also modified the triggers to allow him to fire the guns at a faster rate.

    He also bought some 7000 rounds of ammunition.

    The terrorist used the internet to obtain information about mosques around New Zealand including detailed plans, interior pictures, and details such as prayer times and important dates in the Islamic calendar.

    On 8 January 2019, he travelled to Christchurch from his home in Dunedin to carry out reconnaissance of Al Noor Mosque.

    Taking a position across the road, he flew a drone over the mosque and recorded an aerial view of its grounds and buildings.

    “The defendant then flew the drone back over the Al Noor Mosque, in particular the entry and exit doors,” the summary of facts said.
    (These drones should not be on open sale! But the no regulations policy makes it hard to change, to reverse the laissez faire.)

  8. Wow! TDB Open Mike seems to have launched its own library 🙂 🙂

    Amazing efforts here. (SaveNZ – Outstanding. You should have your own column. Seriously.)
