hahaha get in there ya dirty basterd :P

Houses in the middle of nowhere will be cheaper, but most jobs don't exist out there so I think main centres are a good way to analyse it. I've seen Vince say something about Jews maybe once. He is a intelligent guy but sometimes his views are a bit um, off the cuff. I watched a video of his where he describes New Zealanders as being "autistic" supposedly because they can't socialise well without alcohol. I laughed pretty hard. It was such a random opinion, somewhat true but still felt like it was heavy opinionated.

I don't think the protest movements fit on a political spectrum of any sort. They're just angry about things and much of it is justified, I think the government should listen to their views on vaccination. The only term that I identify with is pro-russian. The United States is basically a fascist country which hides behind a rainbow flag, but now I'm being as hyperbolic as Rangi HA-HA-HA. As far as I'm concerned, people like Valerie Morse are fascists and authoritarians. They stand with NATO and Ukraine and have no problem with missiles and artillery shells being sent to Ukraine, despite the same Peace Action group protesting against arms companies. I can't wait for the rules based order to fizzle into irrelevancy.

The word 'globalist' was popularised by Alex Jones maybe 12 or 15 years ago. I don't believe that all these middle age women at the protests are blaming Jews for the vaccine. If someone posted that suggestion on Counterspin Media, they'd probably be banned. When they say globalists, they really mean it.... Outsides influences corrupting our country such as the U.N. agendas to fight climate change at the expense of good jobs.

I'd have preferred it if they'd just done nothing to be honest. By "doing something" but still changing nothing, it just gives them an excuse to nag for votes again, which they don't deserve.

Nearly all of these things are just tweaks that can be achieved by signing some documents. The country has gone backwards under Labour and it will go backwards under National too. I'm going to wait for boomers to die off before I consider voting in another election. There's no point in voting for parties that will protect landlords and stamp out legislation that will allow for new builds. Which is all of them.

Banned military style semi automatics

They did this to protect themselves not to protect us.

I support them destroying themselves. If their core voters abandon them, that will teach them a lesson. Two years of failure and we're supposed to what... respect them?

Labour shouldn't have run a campaign. They should have let the Green Party take their place. Having Labour run again is just embarrassing.

If the zoning wasn't regulated to benefit existing owners then apartments would be built, plus new townhouses, and these damp decaying places would be $100 a week. If there was an actual housing/rental market (you know, one with real competition, instead of a market that's propped up by government policy) that could work, but I'm not against insulation requirements. If they sent jackboot thugs to inspect homes and threatened to shut them down if landlords didn't comply, I'd fully support it.

National said in the news this morning that we need to fix the COL crisis, because now people are stealing FOOD from supermarkets and abusing staff, and it doesn't get reported to Police because it happens so often. When Jacinda was debating this a few years ago, National said that people were only stealing electronics and tobacco (not food). We are living in a Bizarro World comic right now when things Labour claimed a few years ago are now real.

...Thanks National and Labour

Also, state housing normally means they have the house to themselves. I'm not in a state house or owning, I'm stuck in a crowded boarding house with 10 other people. The group that I'm in always has the lowest satisfaction, I'll bet. Everyone is complaining about each other constantly, that's also how we make friends, by bitching constantly about "the indians" who never stop talking loudly, and complaining about the Chinese landlord ripping us off. I'd rather have a stable house that I don't share with others, like an apartment. NZ lives in the past. Can't believe we don't have apartments in the suburbs of christchurch yet..........

What? I thought it was either YouTube Music on its own, or YouTube Music + ad free. I never saw a lite version.
