There's no doubting the Canadians are resolute and doing what they can. But they are going to pay a mighty big economic price; far larger than the Americans will.Granted Michigan and Illinois will feel it, but they simply have more options, more scale, and ...Written By: Ad - Date published: 10:36 am, August 23rd, 2026
Trying to stop datacentres here when we already have 56 operating and another 20 under construction, is at this point like trying to stop the dairy industry expansion. In reality you can't. There are 33 in Auckland already, not causing a fuss with anyone. ...Written By: Ad - Date published: 10:29 am, August 23rd, 2026
Opportunities policy IMHO needs to show that the state can keep its own house in order before incentivising more of this chronic waste.

With nearly 70% of Canada's exports heading to the USA every month, the collapse of trade talks between the USA and Canada is waaaay worse for the noble Carney than for Trump. Canada's economy will suffer significantly more than the United States economy, ...Written By: Ad - Date published: 9:30 am, August 22nd, 2026

Shows a remarkable confidence that they can build it and they will come. It is quite possible that there is no AI sharemarket bust at all.

So good to see my cousins in Northland take the Ranfurly shield again, for the first time since 1978, and win against Canterbury first time since 1999. How that fine new stadium working out for ya Christchurch?Written By: Ad - Date published: 6:04 pm, August 20th, 2026
Hopefully future applicants can see that it is possible to suck it up, improve their applications (in this case by halving the size of the proposal), and bring some environmental guardians on board as you re-propose it. https://newsroom.co.nz/2026/08/19/ ...Written By: Ad - Date published: 5:57 pm, August 20th, 2026
That massive consented datacentre just south of Nightcaps, with a huge Mercury Energy wind farm generation investment riding on it ... ... doesn't have a tenant.

Very sorry to see Martyn Bradbury involved in a significant fall and hospitalisation. He is a very important left blog and debate leader for the left. Get well soon Comrade. We need you, back for the 2026 fight.Written By: Ad - Date published: 5:35 pm, August 18th, 2026

I just can't wait for Karoline Leavitt's book that will detail how she was shoved out to be a part of the decoy, while the New Chosen blonde got to escape with Trump. If anyone can recall, following the NATO-related summit in Turkiye, Trump used a catering ...Written By: Ad - Date published: 5:16 pm, August 18th, 2026
Just when Luxon had a shot at starting the political week afresh, instead this story is on 1 News, TV3, and RNZ which is where all that old demographic sit down in their cold cold winter to get their news.

Well that Mayor can be gloriously exasperated all he likes.

Legislation is the most awkward, expensive and least efficient form of governing. It is less than 5% of the task of governance. Seriously why don't you know this stuff? 95% of governing is through delegation. And the delegation afforded to Ministers is ...Written By: Ad - Date published: 8:48 pm, August 17th, 2026
Best of luck finding your theory of power that is as polite and sweet as you need it. It is the position of losers. God you talk naive horseshit. Labour invented most of the institutions we have.

You appear to have no idea how Board and CE appointments work in Wellington. Outside of the Departments and Ministries, the entire apparatus is made of Boards.

The 1999-2008 government by their own admission was somewhat slow in getting their own people in to leaders. Ardern's lot barely tried until it was too late. We don't have a neutral public service and to believe so is a 1980s Gliding On fantasy. Get a grip ...Written By: Ad - Date published: 9:05 am, August 17th, 2026

Ginny Anderson the Labour police spokesperson is simply not equipped to deal with the frank brutality of Police politics.
