The only reason the NZ police get away with what they do is because the sleepy hobbits of muddle Nu Zilind let them. Kiwis don’t hate crime as much as they love punishing criminals so the idea that an innocent person has been locked up won’t annoy NZers as much as having to let a person out of jail in the first place. This is the tiny minded bitter nation that we really are.
…the fact that Paul Henry is even close to Breakfast TVNZ1 in terms of ratings should put the fear of the returned zombie Christ into TVNZ management.
If TVNZ wants any positive reviews of this beige mess they better pay The Spinoff to be a client.
The mere idea that Maori somehow have a special privilege is just a white myth! Look at the incarceration rates, look at the crime rates, look at the life expectancy rates, look at the socio-economic rates, look at the education rates, health rates, inequality rates, poverty rates – in EVERY SINGLE NEGATIVE SOCIAL INDICATOR, Maori are suffering.
This is an extraordinary case because of what is at stake. The narrative that the Jury believed is that Jordan Williams was a white knight riding to the rescue of a damsel in distress.
I wouldn’t normally pay these types of social media smears any attention at all, but defaming me and attacking this blog’s ability to continue is something I will fight tooth and nail against.
The Daily Blog is the largest left wing blog in NZ and you know how dire the mainstream media has become so these few platforms left to fight back at the Government and corporate power are more essential than ever before.
For the entirety of the campaign, Hillary has delighted in highlighting the grossly offensive racist and sexist trash that has given him his Nascar Dad cred. The phenomenal number of viewers tuning in were expecting a fanged monster who spits acid between devouring babies.
After an hour of calm debate where those candidates the mainstream media ignore had an opportunity to explain their vision to University students, a physical altercation erupted between candidates Alezix Heneti and David Hay which Chloe Swarbrick had to jump in between to break it up.
UP UNTIL TUESDAY of last week I’d always thought of The Spinoff and Generation Zero as the good guys. A wee bit hipsterish perhaps, in the case of the former; a little hard to distinguish from the Green Party in the latter – but these were minor quibbles. Overall, both organisations came across as fresh, creative, and definitely on the side of the progressive angels.
Not anymore.
