Credo of Natfactackacks – Live for the moment. Seize opportunities and exploit them. Come off – well off. Bugger off – to detractors, in fact run the tractors over them. (The Israeli Army fellers did that and nothing happened to them.*) Keep your powder …

Sounds sense PLA. Quite clear, time to clear the shed of all the slightly-dented policies. Decide if they can be utilised if cleaned up or thrown to their proper burial. Just go for the simple and obvious towards being a good citizen; Labour electorate …

Now that’s a biggie – citizens paying overseas prices because farmers no longer are or feel part of the country and nation’s economy – which produces the food.

I think Foodstuffs is owned by NZs. If that is the case then National would be deliberately weakening our own assets. I suggest encourage The Warehouse to step up as a viable alternative, offering specials, and specially if it is still in NZ ownership. Let …

Eeh. What about the fishies and their sensors, whales, porpoises etc. Humans are getting too big for their boots, invading every corner with their incompatible systems. The sea is the world of other creatures. I remember a song about it from childhood sung …

Of course I just skimmed through it. I have to try to live my life as well as argue for better political decisions, while people like yourself Bd seem quite sanguine. But to remind ourselves of different matters than are right under our noses would round …

It’s come to me. Our problem is targets, the present government and others, have all been focussed on the wrong ones. A little? change of angle and perception and they might find us Kiwis in their sights again. But what then? Would they use us as target …

Good thoughts RP. NAM sounds like a good idea. The idea is idealistic of course, and can’t count as something to be tied to. It would provide a good reason to meet with other countries and be informed about the rest of the world, not so far under the thumb …

Beating up a peril? War as a growth industry!* Frigates, nuclear, beggar ourselves and bugg.r ourselves. That is what our lovely aliens (sorry Freudian-slip allies) offer us. This from Scoop is a point. https://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL2609/S00037/on-how- …

The candidate question and Party? This election reminds me of Hooray for Captain Spalding from Animal Crackers – Groucho Marx and Brothers are the sort of men we need I think. CAPTAIN SPALDING (Groucho Marx): Hello—I must be going. I cannot stay. I came to …

Questioning and pointing out deliberate rejection of normal policies is out for you Gareth Wilson? No wonder we have the uninformed voters that we now have. I have just had a spirited discussion with a tradesman-friend who says Covid was all a ploy to kill …

ACT playing on the mistaken image people have of it again, by putting it self forward as the bright hope for NZs future. https://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PA2609/S00135/act-reveals-team-to-unlock-new-zealands-potential.htm …“There are three major …

Warning; rant! S’dat you? If it was you as a worker on this great project, we wish to acknowledge and thank you – here is a small but significant hand-out and a certificate of thanks for your important part in making this large and and lasting amenity. And …

That is an effective message for the USA I think, ‘We’re Not Going’ to Take It’. Twisted Sister https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xmckWVPRaI That came out of my head exclusively. Then I found another one with Canadian Version in the title. Here it is. https …
