   Our east coast roads in the north island are equally as bad just try Napier to Gisborne road and from gisborne to Whakatane with a narrow wining road with over 700 trusks a day we shit our selves every time we drive these roads now since rail was taken away no thanks to National.

   reading.

   Voltairenet is a site with demonstrated links to French Intelligence. The

   article points out that the bloke who is currently accused of being the

   Manchester bomber is the sone of a former Libyan intelligence officer.
   Dad was hired by MI6 back in 1992 to assasinate Colonel Gadaffi.
   He failed but they kept dad on the books and took him back to Libya during

   the arab spring where he has been living with most of his family ever

   since.

   No wonder the US leaks which are pretty innocuous have been repeated in the

   Brit media while there has been criticism of French leaks that has has not contained any real details in the UK media.
   Dad’s job for MI6 has been to investigate al Quaeda
   and ISIS yet he failed to notice his own son had become involved in jihadism?

   Given the way all discussion of the Manchester outrage has been moved to DB siberia I wouldn’t be at all surprised if influence extends as far as as far as Aotearoa.

   1. yes interesting it is cutting across families…here also is an interesting discussion on the issues

      ‘Now, Manchester’

      https://www.rt.com/shows/crosstalk/389524-manchester-terrorism-middle-east/

      “Now Manchester has become the victim of terrorism. On the back of Donald Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia, isn’t it time to start a vital conversation on terrorism and the West’s involvement in the Middle East?

      CrossTalking with Joshua Landis, Sami Ramadani, and Brian McGlinchey.”

   should work better altho it needs to be noted this sites propensity for inserting carriage returns into liunks does make posting links difficult.

   If thaat doesn’t do it
   http://www.voltairenet.org/article196454.html is the original link which you can either read in french or translate.

   Putting a link button or at the very least posting preferred code for links next to the text box would save a lot of hassle eh

4. Gawd strewth! Did anyone watch Flavell’s budget speech?

   1. By Flavels standards he has much to be proud of with just 1 votebudget and for good reasons. One reason is the National party do indeed block social reforms in all free brown areas. As soon as polls started revealing huge support for cannadis reforms national said you can have your dope but you cant touch our beneficiaries. With out beneficiaries hard right nut jobs lose hlaf there reason for being.

      In far less time gerry brownley managed 20 billion boost for defence and the defence porfolio should be considered far more edgy than the Maori develpoment portolio. So its all relitive. Flavel got absolutly out-angled by gerry.

5. US and UK went into Iraq and Afghanistan totally unprovoked.

   Result 1.4 million dead

   Do they expect no repercussions or do they want repercussions as an excuse to more military restriction of the public and further oppression globally.

   The Libya attack was also totally unprovoked

   A long list of other forays is astounding, Hypocrisy. Hubris, Corruption, Racism but always for profit by a powerful few.
