So! You want a “plan”?
Expecting a bit much aren't you? We haven't had that since Muldoon. There were issues with his plans, but at least he had them. If the Government “interfered with the" sacred “free market’ the same people asking for a plan would be screaming about…

The trans Tasman bubble
Scott Morrison, or more aptly named Scotty from marketing, is at a superficial level your typical right wing leader. He jokes a lot, tries to be a lad, you cannot take him too seriously, but beneath that bluster filled affable superficial veneer lurks an evil…

Disunity, leaks, and poor behaviour
National's review of its 2020 election performance has been completed. The contents are that bad that it will not share the results with its members and you get the feeling that hard copies only will be given to caucus members, complete with data that will…

She might have saved us from Covid but she does not drink beer with Soper
So Newstalk ZB is shocked, I tell you, shocked that Jacinda Ardern will no longer regularly appear on the Mike Hosking show. For me I am shocked that she took so long to make this decision. His show is the closest equivalent we have to…

How to Put A Stake Through Our Monarchy’s Heart
No, it’s not how you keep a 99-year-old racist alive in both public and private hospitals while the rest of the U.K. watches the deliberate destruction of the National Health Service. It’s not how you treat the memory of the most popular royal in a…

So, You Want To Buy Your First Home?
So, you want to buy your first home? Firstly, congratulations! You have joined or will join the large but slowly shrinking team of rational Kiwis who think ahead and look at the future. Indeed, why toil away your life paying dead money into somebody else’s…

Sugar is evil
This post will involve an interesting segway. First of all sugar is evil. It is fine in small amounts but the corporates have worked out that it helps sell their products. They have spent a few decades working out the optimal amount of sugar in…

Biden can reset with China
I’m fully on record that New Zealand should resist China’s authoritarian ways, and U.S. President Biden should too. But it’s all in how he does it. President Biden is clear there’s a new attitude from his CBS interview on February 7th saying that the two…

Senior Business Leaders Call Out To Government. Again
