What NZers don’t seem to understand about the last 9 years of National
What NZers don’t seem to understand about the last 9 years of National is how ideologically driven it has been. National pretend to be moderate and balanced when the truth is they are hard core believers in underfunding the State so that it can’t afford its social obligations.

THEATRE REVIEW: Joseph and The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat – 4.5 stars
I never thought for one second that I would be a lover of live musical theatre, but having a 7 year old daughter changes that perspective.

The Big White Lie – how our racist prison system is killing us and why Chester Borrows might be the solution
As a country we have been manipulated by lynch mob grief manipulators, ‘get-tough-on-crime’ politicians and a crime porn media more interested in ratings than sensible public debate. This vile cocktail of anger and vengeance have helped build a prison empire whose cost was so large that we embarked upon the private prison experiment to try and lower costs.
