I’m not suggesting for one second that North Korea aren’t human rights abusers, but the West’s role in causing the damage that empowered this regime always gets lost, especially when so much of the American Left are now wanting to paint Kim as a ruthless dictator.
I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again – the Greens are chequers players trying to play chess and this is just the latest realisation of that.
Cameron Slater makes a complaint to the NZ Police that his emails were hacked and stolen on August 28th 2014.
By October 2nd 2014, the NZ Police illegally search Nicky Hager’s house for 10 hours.
That’s 36 days from when Slater makes his complaint to when the Cops break into Nicky’s house.

Dumping 3 strikes is smart politics and Andrew Little is the smartest player of smart politics.

Simon Bridges either embarks upon an internal cultural reformation of civility and generates policy that challenges party status quo and aims to pull a middle class who will be dizzy from petrol price cost increases, mortgage hikes and a public service that isn’t helping over to a milder less angry National Party or he just waits until Judith slides her knife into his back to the cheering of National Party members.
The right don’t know which narrative to run with, Jacinda is either a powderpuff lightweight full of meaningless star dust or she is the lipsticked face of grim totalitarianism.
