    Failure to deliver on housing - Cindy blamed everybody (especially the overseas speculators) but now, the cynical hypocrite looks in the mirror and the perpetrator is looking back at her.

    A big supporter of Trevor Mallard is she so no pretence anymore either about being kind, except when it suits her.

    I notice she consistently talks about the foreign buyer ban, even though Labour were consistently told that foreign buyers were a negligible part of the market (remember the ‘Chinese sounding names’ furore). Why keep crowing about enacting something that has achieved absolutely nothing?

    This government does the easy stuff like writing letters to Orr, creating a new Public Holiday, passing laws that have zero effect. They run a mile from anything requiring a bit of hard work. We’ve had 3 years of neglect, and looks like we in for at least another 3.

    Cindy said the Air NZSaudi deal did not meet the sniff test. What exactly did she mean?

    https://www.interest.co.nz/opinion/1...eaking-air-new

    "Those wondering why our Prime Minister was so willing to countenance breaking the Air New Zealand-Saudi contract should wonder no longer. Jacinda Ardern has sniffed the wind and smelled Joe Biden’s aftershave"

    Trotter is being polite. He should have wrote that the cynical Cindy has smelled the US armpit and realized the smell has changed - hence, the sniff test.

    that's what happens when the average Joe Bloggs's out there lose sight of what excellence in office looks like and get lumbered
    instead with limping along on mediocre .. warts, klingons & all (and usually a cloud of BS to cover the ineptness & incompetence)


    don't forget the 'Supermarket bashing' then 'Any sort of Trust out there getting knifed' , then "large Foreign owned Corporations
    not paying enough tax (in the Left's eyes that is) .. more like the prying eyes didn't know what they were looking at or doing ..


    Is Mallard still just clinging to the Control chair in the House for grim life, after his sins came back to revisit ?

    More success on Labour's pet projects:

    $50m or was that $100 mil Bill covering until things finally grind to a screeching halt ?

    Thanks Labour for standing up for NZ interests in relation to the exported terrorists. Australia exporting terrorists here is not on.

    They are the penal colony after all.

    Nats would have caved in and said there's nothing we can do.

    Simple solution + Leave her there .. follow Oz & cancel her Kiwi Visa too ?

    If they looked closely she is no longer a Kiwi citizen on our turf after habitating
    Oz for a term before travelling over yonder so shouldn't have the privileges NZ Visa holds.

    Do we want Terrorist collaborators running around on Kiwi Visa's ?

    She chose to go there and cross into Turkey .. shouldn't be our problem
    but for Ms Bees-Knees sticky beaking for something to inflame the Aussies on ..

    Obviously there's plenty of time to interfere in other things instead of seeing to plugging
    gaps in our border properly this time & getting things back to normal double smart
    on NZ turf ..

    How many other Terrorists are there running around globally with Kiwi Visa's in their Pockets ?

    The thing is, you can't legally leave a person stateless. So unless she holds a Syrian visa or citizenship, we can't remove her NZ citizenship. From the sounds of things she has been a concubine, so while she did support terrorists, it's probably not the way we'd usually think of!

    If only it was as "simple" as that. There's two young kids with inherited Kiwi citizenship to consider, remember?

    So children who are born in Syria automatically get NZ citizenship?
