Shane plays to petty ‘tsunami of butter chicken’ bigotry while Labour defines the real issues behind free trade deals
Shane Jones throws red meat to the worst instincts — but the real danger is slipping through unnoticed. An India trade deal pushed by corporate interests, signed before the public ever sees the fine print.
Luxon claims support, then 5 traitors, then total support again – he’s becoming as credible as a non-orange Trump
Five disgruntled MPs… or total support? Luxon can’t seem to decide — and that contradiction is starting to look a lot like a leadership crisis National can’t contain.
What a Labour, Green, Te Pāti Māori, TOP Government could achieve

MEDIAWATCH: Why the BSA complaint against Sean Plunket is such a waste of time
Sean Plunket has said far worse than this, which is why the BSA complaint feels less like principle and more like bureaucratic theatre with a funding problem underneath.

OK …. @ScarletMod
I understand we don’t have the smarts to cater for all eventualities in an automated world.
In answer to your ‘chastiement’
Merely the hazards of having to use whatever device is necessary with failing eyesight. (with sympathies to the digitally divided and various others who might want to contribute from a very very afar).
You will note however that source IP address and email address have never altered (execpt of course a few months ago when adjacent to the Himalyas and looking for the local cell tower) .
A rilly rilly rilly smart sistim would have recognised that – but at least its better than an LP constantly tinkering and trying to prove how clever. (The father of all re-invention)
Oh, and just btw ….. can anyone of ITC expertise show me what the advances have been using the OSI model at Presentation and application layers in recent years.
I spose constant re-invention of the wheel keeps people employed however – which is a good thing.
And ‘SO’ here’s me ” ScarletMod ” – the very same munter whose eyesight (AND btw – a bug that prevents a ‘name’ being readily offered in a field – no doubt there’ll be a “bug fix@ suffling on by pretty soon) with the same IP and email address wishing to comment.
No doubt there’ll be a Lynne Prentice or some other clown charging like an angry bull willing to fix the problem (and me for that matter).
Just as well I probably can’t see them except at long distance, otherwise there’d likely be an @countryboy type ‘outcome’

I’m sorry (well not ekshully) but I just watched Shane T on “da Nayshun”.
I had great faith in the guy but he’s just demonstrated how wrong my judgement can be….let alone all that PitaS, TT narrative as to the value of being in the tent pissing out.
He actually used that narrative!
Shaaaaame Shane! I had high hopes that were obviously ill founded.
Maybe its the name ‘Shane’?
