Labour govt 2020-23

Maybe this should have its' own thread rather than filling this one with off-topic stuff.

Because it's very much on topic. Michael Wood denounced a women's rights activist as having "vile and incorrect views". No one amongst the usual Labour supporter suspects have been willing to explain what was vile and incorrect about them. No one apart from moka was prepared to define a woman. They all ran a mile.

Emperor's New Clothes playing out in front of our eyes. Many of us don't buy into the identity/gender politics/victim posers. Labour, along with the Greens, clearly does. Long may it haunt them. As if they haven't got enough stench to deal with in the PM's office!

The SMELL of CORRUPTION


In dealing with the burgeoning scandal, the Labour Government’s new strategy is to blame everything on Stuart Nash. He certainly deserves blame for his involvement in it all. But he’s also now being used as a convenient fall guy for what seems like unethical behaviour in other parts of the Beehive.

It’s not clear that this strategy of blaming Nash for it all will wash. For instance, broadcaster Tova O'Brien responded to these events yesterday, saying “Something is very rotten. And just because Hipkins has cut out the source of the rot, I’m not feeling particularly assured that the government’s going to get to the bottom of how deep that rot goes.”

She also says that the public shouldn’t allow the Prime Minister to hide behind the fact that he’s launched an investigation. Hipkins has been refusing to answer questions about the scandal on the basis that he will “await the outcome of that review before making any further decisions or comment on it”. Commenting on this, O’Brien says it’s “beyond appalling that the PM is using that as a smokescreen to hide behind and avoid accountability now.”

Increasingly political commentators and journalists are using words like “stench” and “rottenness” in regard to the Government’s Nash email scandal. Hipkins will be forced to take the issue much more seriously than he has been if he’s to avoid his reputation being tarnished and his government associated with the smell of corruption.

Thirsty Work: Three Waters consultant and contractor spend gushes past $50 million

$50 Million so far ******* up against the Wall by the Clueless Labour crew on something the majority
didn't want

Where is that walking precious art piece and relic from the past all would like seen gone - Mahuta hiding now ?


(The same Mahuta who couldn't even get her legislation correct without need for wheelbarrows more amendments to fix up the errors in the very next session)

No wonder the cost of consultants etc is going off the graph when the calibre of the talent residing in Wellington doing the steering in Parliament is seen for what it is

Comrade Cinders burning ambition to get an international job must be extinguished by now.

Anyone who appoints her to a high level job should be fired.

It's been out of the frying vat and into the fire for Cinders.
Back to the local chippie for you Cinders.

Labour’s solution on the way :

Just reduce the standard so they can all pass.

A related article. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/...tudents-report
"Some teachers and principals are worried the tests will be too difficult for some students and Māori and Pacific students will be particularly disadvantaged."
Does the test somehow know the particular race of the student? This sort of stuff makes me incredibly angry. Perhaps their solution will be to lower the passing grade for just Maori and Pacific students.
