    I like the title I heard from a radio caller, 'Prime Miniature'.

    That's a good one. I'm predicting a big boost in the poll ratings for Labour too

    I read it before it was pulled, and quite frankly I was disgusted. Trying to make a single exception to the foreign ownership law changes by allowing an elitist development in Northland to go ahead. A US billionaire, and Darby involved. There are connections going back as far as Patterson.

    Dunedin mafia eh, who'd have guessed?

    Apparently Mallard refused to let it through - good on him, but Parker needs to front up on this.

    I listened to RNZ attack dogs having a crack at Parker this morning. Keep it up.


    Misguided at worst compassionate and empathetic ,good to see.

    "We had some sympathy for their position because it's an iwi development that's taken many many years and it's been subject to a lot of delays but we tried and it's been ruled out of order so we're not going to take it any further."
    The development is made up of about 100 sites, with sections valued at more than $4 million each.
    Parker maintains the concession was made by the select committee and his office as the Government sympathised with the iwi (Te Uri o Hau hapu and Ngati Manuhiri) involved in the development.
    They made a submission to the select committee about the delays they've suffered and those were the reasons," he said."

    I would hope not. All she has done is do what dozens of women do every day in New Zealand.

    Simon's a bit worried about it though, as he said during this Radio Hauraki interview that he mangled good and proper.

    Finally the Coalition seems to be achieiving one of its pre election promises, to reduce net immigration. It has been achieved by Kiwis voting with their feet and leaving the country, like they did last time Labour was in charge https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/...ectid=12075818

    But it's only a small drop, we still have a net 66,000 more people immigrating here in the year to May 2018, and of course it included 5 months of a National govt. Fake news Iceman?

    Yes only a small drop so far, but your motley lot hasn't been in charge very long so quite an achievement to turn things around so quickly, fake news or not !
