When MATA questioned David Seymour on his links with the Free Market Alt-Right Culture War International Glee Club, The Atlas Network, David called Mihingarangi Forbes names, said she was a joke and that she was chasing conspiracy theories because he had nothing to do with The Atlas Network.

That’s David Seymour from last week in Britain on an Atlas Network speaking tour with other Atlas Network fanatics.
David does understand that we have the internet in NZ right?
He can’t just go to Britain, lose the Oxford Debate and then go on a speaking tour with Atlas Network fanboys while telling a leading Broadcaster in NZ that he has nothing do with the Atlas Network.
It’s like Donald Trump claiming he doesn’t know who these MAGA people are.

Talking of people who seem confused, Matua Shane Jones was in Singapore last week announcing an enormous change in oil and gas exploration policy that no one seems to have told the domestic population of NZ about yet.
Matua Shane announced this change to the International Oil and Gas Industry before he has told anyone here that’s what he is planning.
Why are we finding out that Matua Shane is removing oil and gas exploration restrictions to encompass all of NZs territory before he’s even told us?
Shane Jones does understand we have the internet in NZ right?
Both of them are saying one thing in NZ and doing/saying the absolute opposite overseas and they seem to be hoping you won’t notice.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.



A pair of shifty sods. How anyone would vote for these wankers is a mystery
follow the money
Jones out selling the last of the Maori land ,national parks ,to who ever wants to come and destroy them .And Seymour just spreading lies again about how the Maori worship the ground he walks on .Then there is our Maori bashing PM fogging of Maori culture to the tourists in China ,what a two faced cunt he is .
Right on gordon walker he is two face and gutless to boot our PM
I think Gordon it may be they’re worshiping the ground he’ll lie under.
paaart maaaris Seymor & Jones are just a bunch of lies and they don’t care one term govt
The coalition made it clear to everyone that they would change the exploration rules re gas . Jacinda may have learnt Brownie points for her next career but it left NZ in a bind by ending gas exploration without having an alternative source of energy.
I cannot stand Jones but I hope hecis successful in his quest to get back some exploration companies but unfortunately the harm has been done to our reputation as a good place to do business
Our reputation was fine until this CoC did its reset. Now they’re back on the idiotic immigration bandwagon, the low wage economy that will set us back decades.

This under Luxon, Peter’s and Seymour and the batshit Willis who bypasses protocols to ” get things done”. Shame about the Ferries not getting done.
$20 a bottle of olive oil
$9 a block of butter, not sure you’re getting any brownie points for that.
As you well know Trev ,no existing exploration licenses were cancelled .Those companies hand some in others let them laps because it is way too expensive to explore for oil in NZ where there are no major fields left to find .If there was a massive amount of oil sitting around do you think the greedy pricks would have left it sitting the ground after spending millions to find it .I hear fiction about a massive off the coast of Kawhia but I dont see anyone rushing to extract it so clearly another right wing myth .
It’s very funny how Seymour originally lied and said he ‘paid his own way’ to the Oxford Union debate.
Funny how he didn’t admit that his Atlas puppetmasters paid for his trip over, just like they pay for every action he takes in New Zealand against the interests of the people of this country.
When I wrote to Shane Jones about my concerns about ‘Fast Track’ legislation he replied and referred me to MBIE’s Minerals Strategy for New Zealand 2040.
Here are guiding principles for that strategy.
Minerals developments in New Zealand will happen in a responsible manner
where environmental protection, the health and safety of our workers, and
impacts on regional communities inform all sector initiatives.
Minerals production will not come at the expense of our
environment, the health and safety of workers, or the
communities in which activity takes place. All mineral
production needs to be done in a responsible way.
This means ensuring we balance environmental
protection and long-term environmental sustainability
with the need for resource development. All actions
that come out of this strategy will be informed by
measures to minimise environmental impacts, ensure
best practice rehabilitation plans, and mitigate
environmental risks associated with mining. This
specifically includes ensuring ongoing protection of
areas of high value recognised as Schedule 4 land in
the Crown Minerals Act 1991.
The safety and wellbeing of our people and
communities is non-negotiable. There have been times
when our workers have not returned to their families
and our communities have suffered. Government and
the sector carry both the weight of these failures and
the lessons they taught us. Our work to cut red tape
does not mean that we are cutting corners. The actions
that are progressed under this strategy will support
responsible practices that ensure the safety of our
workers and the wellbeing of the communities where
our workers come from.’
I plead with all our comrades to read this document
https://www.mbie.govt.nz/assets/a-minerals-strategy-for-new-zealand-to-2040.pdf
so they can quote it when they oppose mining proposals.
Constant public pressure is our best hope.
(I hate being fair to Shane Jones but he did at least, or his office, did at least reply to my letter).
Just call them spuds, brown on the outside, white on the inside
So are coconuts by the way.
And if you remove the coo from coconuts you get a word which describes them well and is interchangeable with the babbling Brooke van Velden.
Right on gordon walker he is two face and gutless our PM. And now we have Bishop overriding council powers, yet the National party said they wanted the council to have autonomy over their water, the water they claimed the maaaaris are stealing, how dumb are those NZers that fell for all this bullshit and spin and went on to vote these stealing lying mongrels in power
They most likely appreciate that overseas someone many actually be listening. The right wing always feels the need to hide their actions. Its almost as though they know they are doing something wrong.
Saw Jones on Maori TV on Monday night.
A program about a child being murdered in Kaikohe.
He claimed to be a leader but he immediately blamed drugs for this incident and all of Northland’s other issues.
His solution, lock them up. He didn’t say who to lock up. Was it the users who create the market or the supplier who services that market.
He made no reference to applying his mind to the underlying causes of family violence, poverty or drug misuse.
He is just a pompous twat who has no imagination and is living in a 1970s world.
His attitude to mining and fishing is also embedded in the past.
I wonder what his children think about his ideas. Maybe they have never been allowed to think.
As for Seymour he is a puppet whose strings are pulled by money grubbers. Unfortunately those strings seem to be attached to Luxon and Peters as well.
