      Swift, accurate, deadly – like a falcon.
   2. 1.2

      Nice to see trolls being dealt to.
   3. 1.3

      Spot on
2. 2

   Tony Blair is planning a return to British politics as he considers May a lightweight and Corbyn a nutter.

   God loves a trier, but I think the British public’s reception will be icy. He’s kind of the prime example why there’s cynicism about modern politics.
   1. 2.1

      What party would be stand for?
      1. 2.1.1

         He might as well be honest and stand as a Tory. The best leader that party never had. Maybe the Lib Dems?
         1. 2.1.1.1

            Lib Dems are proposing a second brexit referendum so that might fit
      2. 2.1.2

         Sounds like a last ditch effort by the arseholes in the PLP to oust Corbyn
      3. 2.1.3

         NZ First.
   2. 2.2

      he knows he’s unelectable so is setting up a lobby/pressure group

   1. 3.1

      A start in the delayed road to justice that the rich in this country seem to feel is there right to demur on.
   2. 3.2

      That’s not a White Ribbon on his lapel….surely?
      1. 3.2.1

         I believe it is. I just threw up in my mouth a little.
4. 4

   It’s encouraging, isn’t it. Despite our various opinions on the rights and wrongs of the case, it’s good to see the wheels of Justice turning.

   This must be indicative of the excellent job the government is doing in disaster recovery according to many government aligned journalists and even some posters on this forum.

   1. 5.1

      Fuck. This again, after Chch. How big is Kaikoura? A country the size of NZ can’t look after 3,000 people?

      We need to watch that and understand that it will be much worse when the big one hits and takes out so much infrastructure that emergency and follow up services can’t cope. We will be reliant on overseas aid.
      1. 5.1.1

         On day 8 this is the best they can come up with for the people of Kaikoura and surrounds.

         A couple of vans…
