The Trans Tasman bubble is open, here are the rules.

If another Covid outbreak happens, too fucking bad.

We will not tolerate you whining to the media about getting lockdown out, we will not tolerate your calling Jacinda heartless and we will not tolerate your demands to get back in!

The only travel should be urgent, if you are travelling because you are sad sad by the lack of travel and get locked out or in, dems da breaks!

Oh and if an outbreak happens here because of this bubble, it’s on the heads of everyone who demanded the border be opened.

  1. Oh but the whinging will be phenomenal when the door shuts. And it will

    And it’s Australia, not like it’s something worth seeing!

      • It’s there any point to you Sam? Aside from you being a self appointed gatekeeper critic to people’s comments?

        • Sam should be spelt with a ‘p’ in between the letters ‘S’ and ‘a’ . Then his name would match his comments.

          • You’re hurt. So I’ll will be cautious about treading on your reputation.

            Everyone is cooped up so we have to be cautious in the first few years because corona can easily overwhelm and we need to walk back all out government control.

  2. There are other very important rules you haven’t mentioned, Martyn:

    1.Ignore the fact that global oil extraction has peaked, and that in not too many years we will be unable to keep the food system running because of all the squandering of oil [in its various forms] that has gone on over recent decades.

    2. Ignore the fact that we are in the early stages of Planetary Meltdown [due to fossil fuel use] and that meltdown will continue to accelerate as a consequence of continued squandering of fossil fuels.

    3. Ignore the fact that the world runs on fiat currencies created out of thin air, and that shifting computer digits from one place to another contributes nothing to our overall well-being. In fact doing so erodes our well-being.

    4. Ignore the fact that banks, corporations and opportunists are in control, and governments serve the short-tern interests of banks, corporations and opportunists at the expense of everyone.

    5. Ignore the fact that GDP is a fake measure of commercial activity, and that it really stands for Global Deception Paradigm and Global Destruction Process.

  3. The chances of an imported Covid case from Australia is almost non existent whereas infection from our MIQ and non Australia border is significant.

    You can’t hide in fear for an eternity and relax when Australia gets their jabs up to a critical mass they’ll open to east Asia and then demand we get vaccinated before travelling over there you’ll get your shut down again because let’s face facts – we won’t be getting vaccinated this year.

    • infection from our MIQ and non Australia border is significant.

      I’m glad you’ve wrote that bit.
      Because, the same groups that pushed for opening with Aus are now pushing for more, for a much wider area to open. If they would just stop there, as-is, and take time to really assess the situation after borders are open with Aus, then okay…
      But they’ve already started pushing for more.

      • The writing is on the wall. The developing countries will be no-go zones for probably close to a decade. The push is beginning for Europe, North America, Australasia, China and the OECD Asian countries to have free travel post vaccination.

        The issue for (little) Aotearoa will be vaccine access. We are being treated like mushrooms (kept in the dark and fed shit) with respect to the true nature of this at present.

        And looky, looky a border worker (unvaccinated) got covid……Explain that St Ash.

    • Where’s Australia?…. isn’t that an Island off New Zealand?

      I thought the accents were kind of similar,… maybe they are English… I dont know…

    • Jacinda is carrying all of us, including your ungrateful self, through the worst pandemic of our lifetime. She has done so with rare success. It has to be wearying, to say the least.

      Someone send the frank a barbie doll.

      • Sorry but Jacinda is not carrying the load of bring down the child poverty she is not carrying the load of helping renters and 1st home buyers she is not catty ing the load of getting staff into the country to support essentially industry and farming.
        So much promised so much not done what do we need to be grateful for now .

        • All of those issue’s created by National Trev, now back on the subject of Covid Trev, I know the subject of diversion, we hear it daily from John Keys love child Hosking, the fact you live and breathe to opine is down to Ardern and Labour, suck it up buttercup. The alternative is your home country, the UK.

      • “Carrying all of us” get a bloody grip, she’s not some messiah, she’s a leader or a political party and thats it. Open your eyes and wake up to reality.

        • “Messiah” is YOUR word, boyle’d troll.

          Jacinda herself made the call for us all to go into lockdown. And that action gave us the freedom we have today. Many were in doubt about it, including the noisy Nats saying, “But whataboutaustraylya!” …Ignoring the months-long lockdown of Melbourne, and other problems they had.

          My disappointment is not that Jacinda OWNED her leadership and took strong and courageous action, WHICH SAVED US, but that more recently that strong, decisive leader.. seems to have softened.

        • No shit Sherlock! Like Key who destroyed our country and now why we are faced with cleaning up the multiple shit fest were in . But its easier to blame Jacinda eh Mickey.

  5. Hmmmm…. in favour of keeping those borders closed. Let the Aussie banks finance us. Then shit all over them by changing legislation that enables us to shit on them back for all the economic rapine they’ve conducted. What was it a few years ago?… 6 billion extracted by Aussie banks from our economy?

    Time to think nationalism.

    Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
    Well I heard ol’ Neil put her down
    Well I hope Neil Young will remember

  6. The first thing my other half said to me was “start stocking up food, we are going to go into another lockdown and it might be a lot worse”.

  7. Opinions are like arse holes, we all have them, its just that Frankie’s are bigger than ours. He makes statements like Hosking does that pretend to be fact ie “The chances of an imported Covid case from Australia is almost non existent whereas infection from our MIQ and non Australia border is significant.”

    Yet it isn’t quantified with evidence. Hosking falls into the same category and we all know how that panned out with John Tamahere.

    One thing stands out the keyboard experts like Frankie on covid hold no risk, that lies squarely with the goverment.Hosking can walk off all he r the P.M.likes in his disgust for the P.M. but at the end of the day he’s just another woke right wing neoliberal entitled nutjob.

    • Hosk is behaving like a toddler, throwing a big tantrum 🙂
      Just screaming, “I don’t like her! I don’t like her! Waaaaahhhh!”

  9. Already predicting will NOT help most tourism businesses, in fact they will be worse off as NZer’s holiday in OZ warmer weather and only the OZ skiers come to NZ, which is only a tiny part of NZ tourism and already well used by the Kiwis if they couldn’t go anywhere else.
