National prepares to die in a ditch over racist American flag
In politics there are two general theories, the conspiracy theory where events are the result of deep Machiavellian planning, and the f*ck up theory where things just happen because of human stuff ups. Often the f*ck up theory is the real reason behind random events…

Advising the country about Covid19 is unfair to National
National is upset. Very upset. Because the Government has been engaged in something that is very dastardly and very unfair. What is this dastardly unfairness you ask? Apparently a Government social media account, the unite for recovery instagram account, followed Jacinda Ardern. From what I…
