The real madness, there wouldn’t be any synthetic cannabis issues if we legalised actual cannabis.
The truth is that while it’s poor brown people dying from synthetic cannabis sweet bugger all will be done. The second white middle class kids start dying, watch how quickly society will move.
I just don’t think this story below is getting enough attention and I hope the release of the new documentary by Annie Goldson reignites public attention…
Being on the State Broadcaster carries obligations to the taxpayers who have built that asset up, which means his salary should be transparent.
Kiwi’s don’t want the jobs, because as Helen Kelly pointed out, they are awful hideous jobs which are paid a pittance.

NZ First’s extraordinary claim that deciding the fate of the Maori electorates with a binding referendum is not only dog whistle politics at its worst, it’s also incredibly unfair and utterly unjust.
Taxing tourists who visit the country to help build that infrastructure is a no brainer right? We are a premium tourism destination and a simple one off tax would generate hundreds of millions.
