And further.
A good thing - gives people time to get used to it.

Does not matter what I think.

Thanks Artemis.

Poto is too busy protecting criminals & gangs to get herself properly briefed on Housing NZ matters. Or if she was briefed, she remains clueless just like her leader.

Minister Poto Williams will have been briefed. Guaranteed. Probably multiple times. Whether it sunk in, that's a different matter. I would say it has suddenly sunk in now.

I just googled Singapore - sterile for fun. I'm certainly not alone with my thoughts. You'd love Salt Lake City.

Perhaps Sicily would be more to your taste? I just googled Auckland - guess what....it is the place where gang mobsters remain untouched by the law.

Another gang procession taking over the streets.

Did you get a waspish comment with yours? Yet the guy is a Lefty who wants ever-increasing socialism for NZ.....the bare-faced cheek to criticise someone else: absolutely shameless!!

Here is the message from BlackPeter when he gave me another bad rep :

"I am sorry I didn't gave you enough. Please accept my apologies."

Give, BlackPeter, not "gave", doesn't make sense.

Lets get this show rolling, Auckland has had it to themselves for far too long now.

Self isolation trial - train wreck.

No surprises here - anything to do with the pandemic is shambolic, disorganised and disastrous when it comes to Clueless Cindy & her team of nincompoops.

And they want NZers to trust them with running the country!

Tends to happen when you build an education system with no creativity.

Takeouts from this weekends Newshub Nation, as to why Maori have been slow to, or may not vax;

Low trust of government, no trust of vaccine, and "not high on priority list"

Ok, so you can just sit around and hold the rest of the population to ransom with your inertia, or ignorance?

Many ask me, what's in the vaccine?

My reply, what difference will it make if I tell you, are you a chemist?

I trust they will be equally reticent and distrustful of coming forward for any other taxpayer funded benefit, pension or initiative...

It is interesting that the average age of Maori is about 26 and the average for Pakeha is 38 so having the lower age bands vaccinated last means that they were behind from the start.
That is, of course, in the past so should be much less of an excuse as time moves on but does explain why their rate is lower (but catching up fast).

2013 figures but I doubt that it has changed lots since then.
