Everyone who has to deal with the labour.org.nz site is probably aware of just how naff the thing is. I guess that is what happens when you have the traditionally technophobic like MPs involved in whatever committee makes the site. For a start, they don't…
Scott at Imperator Fish kindly lets us republish his blogs. This one is originally here. Police are investigating whether a spate of seemingly unrelated incidents could be linked to Nicky Hager’s new book. Hager’s book Dirty Politics was released last week, and much of the book’s content…
It's John Key. In this wide-ranging stand-up interview, he explains how "the left" conspired to ensure over the last three days that they burnt an effigy of him, used a few swear words about him on You-Tube, ran a satirical video, and Nicky Hager launched…

Scott at Imperator Fish kindly allows us to syndicate his material - the original for this is here. I originally posted this back in September 2013. The passage of time is relentless, but some things, and people, don’t ever seem to change. Gee I’m a bit…

Like many of you I am struggling to imagine what David Cunliffe will be accused of next because so many of the current allegations are, well, a little bit naff. So I asked some Facebook friends to suggest what allegations will be made next about…
#137675978 / gettyimages.com Above: a terrorist gets his comeuppance It seems that all sorts of crazy stuff is being written about the Independent Police Conduct Authority’s determination that police were justified in not prosecuting members of the GCSB over illegal spying. Come on guys, give the police…

It seems to be the season of books and faux book covers movie posters. Mary-Ellen O'Connor has published a Nats' cook book. Proceeds of the sales will apparently be donated to the "centre left". Kim Knight reports on Stuff: Energy and Resources Minister Simon Bridges…

Scott Yorke at Imperator Fish is well known for his inciteful insightful analysis of many issues. However he has really really outdone himself in this repost of his original work. With its clarion call for rioting clarity it will bring war unity to all parts…
