The Heat

“It does scare me… [If] I have to walk out that night on my own, or I might have to be alone at home or whatever, I remember Jo Cox.”

Oh. Dear. God.

  I see she’s now also a domestic violence victim.
  
  Is there any victim card she hasn’t played yet?
  
  Perhaps she also has prostate cancer?

    The bit I don’t understand is why a strong, capable, professional woman would stay in an abusive relationship.
    
    She’s a lawyer. She could easily find her own flat, she knew all the processes and mechanisms to get court orders, protection etc.
    
    She doesn’t have kids, she has money so nobody really has power over her. There was no need for her to stay in an abusive relationship.
    
    Is this all just another porkie?

      I read the original article from Vice.
      
      Other than a short reference in a brief background to her relationships at the time , there’s no detail. This is poor , especially in these days of # activism. Contrast that to the detail of why they left Iran . There’s a deliberate omission going on re the alleged DV.
      
      BTW , these people literally are champagne socialists.
      
      ‘We met in the Karangahape Road bar where you’ll often find Ghahraman on a weekend night, relaxing after a week in Parliament, chatting pre-theatre with friends over champagne. We ordered a bottle of champagne, and then a second’

        Can you imagine if a National List MP spoke of swilling Champagne and heading to the Theatre every night after Parliament?
        The shrieks and howls from the ‘outraged’ Left would be deafening!
        ‘How can she do that when there are people starving and living in cars?’
        ‘National Fat Cats!’ etc etc

        Also, she is NOT NZ’s ‘first refugee MP’. By the Left’s own definition, some of the first Maori MPs were ‘refugees’, and Primer Julius Vogel was also a refugee.

        The woman is a fantasist.
        More fantasies than a story teller.
        
        I’ve come across people like her before.
        
        Never to be believed.
        They can become fraudsters and conmen.
        This fantasist is close and ince she gets the boot there is her track.
        We have had a few CEO’s and high powered Govt. officials belong to that group.

      Saw her at the basketball last night. A photographer stood behind me and took what must have been a 100+ photos of her and that unfunny joker that is her boyfriend. He is obviously into the game but she was looking at her phone most of the time.

    This. I’m picking it’s Ghahraman or another female Green MP.
    
    She’s right to be concerned though because a bit like Muslim extremists, right wing extremists do like taking matters into their own hands with violent solutions. I think you’ll find most political assasinations are Right on Left.

  Querying Ms Ghahraman’s rather dubious backstory is a “Racist attack”??

Here is another reason the Left Wing has a stranglehold on Auckland local politics. The Right (C & R type groups) have been like a bunch of headless chooks who cannot even organise a booze up in a brewery. Now the 5 C & R members of the AECT (who own the majority of Vector) has split down the middle with elections underway tomorrow. City Vision (Left wing) candidates are licking their chops in anticipation. Come on Auckland right wingers – sort your own problems out – do not expect the National Party to come to the rescue (wisely, the Party wants to keep right out of the shambles).

    If C&R want to achieve this objective they should strive hard to work in unison, not be seen to be squabbling. The Trust seems to be incompetent to carry out its duty of being ‘appointers’ of Vector’s board (by virtue of owning the majority of shares). The time has come for the Trust to be put out of its misery and ownership of Vector be returned to the Council (its predecessor the former Auckland Electric Power Board was a creation of the old Auckland City Council in what was a far sighted move at the time).
    If City Vision are trying to put a suicide squad into place on the Trust then so be it.

An Aussie visits a close friend who lives in Wellington. Since the man from Wellington is very well connected, he manages to get his friend a tour of the Parliament. The visitor is not very into politics so when Winston appears, walking aimlessly and mumbling to himself, the Aussie asks
“Who is that and what is he doing?”
“That is our deputy PM,” the friend answers, “and he is holding a cabinet meeting.”

The Annals of White crime in NZ Continued

Riverhead quarry rapist’s previous convictionscontinued

“The previous conviction for a repeat rapist who committed a violent attack in the Riverhead quarry near Auckland can now be reported for the first time.

The 60-year-old truck driver from Onehunga, Colin Jack Mitchell, was convicted of kidnapping, causing grievous bodily harm and assaulting a woman with intent to sexually violate her in March.
DNA from the quarry scene linked him to a historical rape case that had gone unsolved for 25 years. The jury found him guilty of that attack as well.

But what the jury did not know was that Mitchell had raped when he was just 15 years old.
The case had remained the subject of a suppression order until today. RNZ challenged the order in the Court of Appeal and the senior court revoked the order today when his bid to have his convictions were quashed.

At the age of just 15, Mitchell raped a woman in her flat. He was sentenced to five-and-a-half years in Mt Eden Prison.

The woman he raped told RNZ that being in court and watching Mitchell as he was convicted for the quarry attack and another rape – his fourth – was liberating…”

Horrendous and good work Red Radio!

  An important aspect of the jury system is that the jury must not take extraneous matters into account – that is anything concerning the case that is not ‘given’ to the jury during the trial. Hence the suppression of backgrounds and other details concerning accused persons when jury trials are possible or pending such as the possibility of a re-trial. In this case a Radio NZ journalist would have applied to have the order lifted since the purpose of the order had ceased and the relevant court agreed.
  There was no question in this instance that the suppression order was wrongly applied to start with.

      It is Jami Lee Ross obviously but he will not be named. I think this very expensive enquiry will turn up nothing and the public will just have to suck it up.
      
      It will leave the National Party looking very very shifty and untrustworthy though. This is something many of us have recognised for a long time but Simon has managed to spread the perception wider.

        Shutting down our 3rd largest industry without consultation isn’t shifty? How about ministerial emails on gmail? Or jobs for mates of the PM? Or covering up sexual assualts at a party meeting? Does that not meet your shifty threshold or is being thick beyond belief a viable defence?

        Just mentioned the $250m cost for the working groups to someone here and they had no idea about any working parties being set up or what they were for. Yikes!

Max Key was entirely nice on Garner, but other than using ‘like’ in every sentence, he was a sensible young man. Of course the Left are savage in their emails, so much so they remind me of US Democrats. They say he has had ‘no life experience’, which is rather like Jacinda eh?

Are you out there Shame? – wakey wakey, hands off snakey – 100 million trees to go now Shame – that’s 1 followed by a bucketful of zero’s !

This is a very large number. To put it into context, if 100,000,000 x 5mtr high trees were laid end to end then they would reach the moon, and most of the way back again.

Summer’s over now, winter is winding up, so it’s the right time to start planting – better go wake up your cuzzies and give them a shovel some time soon !

*RANDOM IMPERTINENT QUESTION*

Should parents be held to account?

Scenario……

You let your 12 year-old daughter go out to play with the 14 year-old girl next door.

What you don’t know, is that your daughter has a screwdriver hidden in her jacket, and her friend is carrying a knife.

Instead of going over to the council reserve for a swing, they decide it will be a lot more fun to break into a few cars parked around the hood.

The girls suddenly find themselves confronted by a well meaning, but somewhat upset, 54 year-old man, who the older girl fatally stabs in the heart.

The thing is, can you really lay any blame on the parents? They always knew their kids had been stealing shit from the local ‘Toys R Us’, but to be fair, had no idea they’d taken the bus all the way out to Bunnings.

    The jury would have been instructed that a guilty verdict for murder could be brought in only if the use of the knife was ‘likely’ to cause death (and death resulted) otherwise it was manslaughter. The jurors would have no doubt have deliberated earnestly whether it was ‘murder’ as defined in s167(b) of the Crimes Act “…. if the offender means to cause to the person killed any bodily injury that is known to the offender to be likely to cause death, and is reckless whether death ensues or not”.
    There is probably not much difference in consequences in this case as the offender was 14yo. So a sentence of life imprisonment (if murder) would be unlikely to be imposed meaning that she would not be on parole for life when released from any detention.

      In my world, if I stabbed someone in the heart, then I would expect him to die. Apparently, in judicial land, there is no heart to sustain life.

  Yes I think that Christine Blasey Ford was lying in her testimony. Either she is lying or Judge Kavanagh is lying? And the judge has evidence while she has none.
  
  Having watched a few body language people on YouTube comment on Ford’s testimony I now believe that it was highly rehearsed and highly deceptive. To take her testimony seriously we have to believe that that little girl voice and the small tiny wee creature that she she presented herself as, is the real Ms Ford.
  
  Because she is a university professor with a PhD and presumably a successful career. We know that she lied about her fear of flying. We have evidence that she lied about coaching people through a polygraph test. We know that she is a Bernie Sanders supporter. So she is a creature of the left who would be vehemently opposed to a Conservative majority on the Supreme Court.
  
  People say what would she get from coming forward to testify in this way? Well she gets to be on TV. So she gets to be famous. She gets money. Apparently her go fund me account has $1 million in it. And she potentially gets the adulation of the left for being the person who fearlessly stands up and brings down that evil conservative judge and rapist.
  
  So she gets money fame and approval. Those are powerful motivators.
  
  Maybe something happened to Ms Ford when she was 15. But I do not believe that it has anything to do with Judge Kavanagh.
  
  And in a just world the media would investigate her story and find out if she has in fact lied under oath?

    We should not even get to the point of deciding who to believe. If the accusation is so lacking in detail that it’s impossible to establish whether it is true or not, it should not be accepted as evidence in a hearing.
    
    Also, it is well established that people who undergo counselling can recover memories of things that never happened. The memories are real but there is no real corresponding event that created the memory. So it is very possible that neither of them is lying.

    Yep she was a horrendous liar. There are reports out there that she helps people cheat a polygraph, flys all the time, didn’t live in houses with double front doors and only ended up on the West Coast to get away from her years of embarrassing herself drinking recklessly. Actually I’m betting she did this entirely for monetary and political reasons. A dark moment in American history, but to think so many people believe her without evidence.

  ‘To Understand Christine Blasey Ford, Take a look at Palo Alto University’
  
  11 minutes long
  Over 1.2 million views in 6 days and over 10,000 comments
  
  Fun Fact
  Where Crazy Blasey works at Palo Alto there is 79% female students.
  Mucho grange bias.
  
  I wonder if Palo Alto has a spot for Jan the Ban Thomas although it sounds like Palo Alto is already destroyed whereas Hurricane Jan is currently wielding her path of destruction with the support of the piss weak Massey Ag College Council.
  
  Those Canadians, despite a bimbo Prime Minister,
  can sure put out some good analytical, fact based material.

    Some great insight in those videos.
    
    I love how she points out that the very same people that are out today crying and demanding sexual freedom and their right to choose are also the ones decrying something that “possibly” (but probably didn’t) happened back in the days of the sexual revolution. A time when people felt their sexual freedoms and rights were being challenged………..by the religious and conservative right!
    Oh, the irony.

Wonder will our money grabbing banks be also classed as “Loan Sharks”. After all they have a captive audience,with most credit card debt secured.
Question being, why are they gouging credit card holders an interest rate of circa 20% to 25%.Just saying.

  The biggest problem is that the legal loan sharks will go out of business and the industry will continue – but now driven by gangs.
  
  The reason for the extremely high interest rates is that the loans are very high risk. If they were low risk they could get a bank loan.
  
  Now those high risk loans will continue, but now enforced by gangs. Can’t pay, well send your daughter around to pay in kind or deliver this little package for us.

  I can’t find the original story, didn’t Cindy say that the lender would not be able to charge any more than 100% the original amount in interest. No talk of duration of the loan? So, if I borrow $500K at 5.8% for 30 years the total repayments would be $1,055,227, however, if the interest rate were say 7.8% the cost of borrowing would be far greater than the original loan, the total repayment being 1,295,115.00.

    Crockery would not understand percentages, expenditure or, in fact, anything of fiscal importance. Let’s face it she could not be entrusted to use a cash register in her local grease shop.

  Well, the rate is high, but you get up to a month of free credit, with zero interest charged if paid on time. It is essentially unsecured loan money, the cost of recovering such money is typically very high, and the banks also cover fraudulent transactions if you can show that you took appropriate actions.
  
  So the answer at least in part is, credit card advances are very expensive so don’t use them unless essential. If it is a purchase, pay it off on time and if necessary arrange to borrow money on a personal loan to pay off the credit card as that would be a lot less expensive normally.
  
  There are a few people who get trapped by circumstances into expensive credit card debt, but in most cases it is voluntary foolishness.

    Credit card rates for unsecured on demand lending are market controlled.
    It is the subclass below the credit card holders who are being targeted by the truck sellers and payday lenders. Their rates are needs driven and fear enforced.

Just a note to those that think the extra costs of the fuel taxes which have our fuel prices at the highest level I have seen won’t hurt the poor well this week Couplands that matched Countdown and others that sold their bread at a $1.00 a loaf has increased the price to a 1.29. So anyone that thinks Jacinda is going to help the poor and eliminate poverty arekidding themselves as this is the start of many price increases.

Up to 12 December 2018 any signatory to the Paris Agreement has the right to withdraw. This was a condition of the Agreement when drawn up in December 2015.

There is a Climate Change Conference in Poland the 8th and 9th of December. At that NZ will be required to pick up the share of the total costs as determined by the Panel.

It will be well in excess of our actual emissions which are a small rounding error.

The total costs will be in the Hundreds of Billions.

The real Agenda of Paris as is our own Tax Working Group is to transfer wealth from the middle classes ( the rich class dont pay tax they employ tax accountants and lawyers to make sure they dont) to the poor classes and from rich countries to poor countries,

BTW The Brookings Institute has calculated that just of 50% of the worlds population is now middle class or above. That is they have enough disposal income to provide for the necessities of life with a surplus for discretionary spending.

And. The single reason that this has occurred since 1800 and the agricultural revolution is…………wait for it………………………..COAL.

So the Left want to regress back to 1800 when 90% of the worlds population survived on $2 a day in todays money.

Brilliant!!!!

That’s what astounds me, that so few have appeared to realise that the increase in fuel will increase food costs, and impact on jobs…and it is the poorest who will feel it first.
So all that stuff about wanting to ‘march against poverty’ from Jacinda – remind me, was that stated the at the same time she ‘believed’ one could be in politics and not lie!

Heh, the ‘weasel-word-count’ began there didn’t it? ‘believing’ isn’t the same as ‘knowing’, though, is it? I mean, you can’t unequivocally say she was ‘lying’ could you? Not when you look back and ask her what exactly she said.

You gullible fools, she was playing you right from the start.

  So Crockery is clamping down on loan sharks and truck stops. What a stupid mare this silly little girl is.
  Gangs will take up the slack, and then we will see what high interest rates are, what securities will be taken, what collections will cost, and finally, what happens to defaulters.
  The types who go outside mainstream lending institutions are invariably defaulters, have had untold collections, and are totally irresponsible.
  The rates these high risk finance companies charge are still poor return for the hassles of dealing with these losers.
  This incompetent unelected PM is definitely in another world!

    From all the cases I have seen over the years, if you want to see usury, look no further than the IRD.
    Get behind on your taxes and watch them:
    add fines
    then add interest in the fines
    all % of the outstanding taxes
    It balloons out of control in no time.

So Bernard Hickey recons there isn’t going to be a recession….But growth may fall from 3% to 2%
1. How is that a good thing?
2. Wait and see, so much not in the budget.
Thought
If you left out all these things in your company accounts, as Robertson did in the budget, the IRD would be auditing you in a flash.

  Just thought, if growth falls from 3% to 2%
  and
  Currently growth per quarter has been 0.2% and 1%,
  that’s 1.2% over the first 6 months of this financial year, the next 2 quarters will be 0.8% between them.
  That’s anemic and what is the prospect for next year?
  Personally I think Hickey is trying to talk up the economy and am still expecting recession (the next 2 quarters to be negative).

  But RW Capitalist this garbage from Hickey sounds like a paid political broadcast as we link the dots. He advocates borrowing big time to fund all the Governments wish list while it is only 2.6% interest. It is sounding like the start of preconditioning the public for some serious borrowing ahead.

I am interested from listening how brilliantly Robertson has handed our financial affairs.
On the other hand if I listen to professionals they are very concerned as to the way that it is possible that another Worldwide Financial crises is underway and the Sharemarkets around the world are showing serious nervousness.
Our dollar is dropping which of course helps exporters but increases the price of our imports – eg Fuel.
Some small movement would will make a serious mess of Kiwisaver investments.
I hope members realise that the Government does not guarantee Kiwisaver.
There would be a shock when peoples savings take a negative hit – but fear not the Investment Manager will still take their fees irrespective of the losses incurred by the Kiwisaver.

      A lot of the fall is due to tech stocks. People are starting to see the sham of Google/Facebook etc.
      A fall in these stocks triggers the computers to sell other stocks also.

  If an investor opts for ‘balanced’ or ‘growth’ funds, the investor must expect up’s and down’s. If an investor worries about his fund losing value, he should choose a ‘conservative’ fund that invests in decent quality bonds and other fixed rate things (and NOT sub-prime mortgages).
  So Kiwisaver and other investors whose fund values have diminished because of a stockmarket downturn should just ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’, they will come right.
  Investors in ‘conservative’ funds should not smirk at the misfortune of those in ‘growth’ funds, but instead move their investments into ‘growth’ funds while the price is down. The only people should be in ‘conservative’ funds are those coming up to retirement and who need to cash up. If they can delay switching or cashing up until the market improves then all the better.

  Almost a decade of screaming “THE DOLLAR IS OVERVALUED” and using it as a platform to attack the Govt for not reforming monetary policy. Scarcely a word about about the radiating effects of increases input prices when the dollar drops. A direct drop in our standard of living? External debt becomes more expensive to service? Media reporting on the Dollar (especially Hickey https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=10834250) was woefully one-sided, however now the dropping dollar is an excuse for Labour to hide behind, all is apparently well.

        Rail however you have to stop the use of, while you make the improvements.
        Rail lines are a much more PERMANENT feature than roads, cost more to make and are more difficult to change.
        Railways are much more expensive to use, more inflexible and take much longer to shift goods and people.

Israeli court: NZ activists must pay for Lorde cancellation
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=12141158
“An Israeli court has ordered two New Zealand women to pay over $12,000 in damages for allegedly helping persuade the pop singer Lorde to cancel a performance in Israel.
The suit was filed under a law that allows civil lawsuits against anyone who calls for a boycott against Israel. Thursday’s ruling is believed to be the first time the 2011 law has been applied”.

Since the topic of free speech has been pretty hot on KB lately this story definitely caught my eye.
Surely having a law on your statutes that allows legal claims to be lodged against people who call for a boycott of your country is totally undemocratic and goes completely against the principle of free speech even though you hear regularly that Israel is the only country in the Middle East to uphold these values.
I would have thought the state of Israel is more tolerant and open than to waste it’s time allowing it’s courts to be used to try and silence a couple of retarded teenagers from NZ calling for a boycott of a B grade celebrity singer to their country.
Have to say the whole situation is pretty pathetic and dictatorial in my opinion.

    This has got nothing to do with the Israel\Palestine issue in reality.
    It is about peoples right to voice an opinion in a legal way without another party trying to silence them.
    You know that thing called free speech which is supposed to be upheld by right wingers.
    Seems like unfortunately you fit in the category of agreeing with free speech if you agree with the speaker but otherwise you don’t.

    Nonsense. It’s totalitarianism, and you’re defending it.
    
    You don’t care, of course, but there are people here who care about Israel, and who are concerned about the situation in the Occupied Territories, and the brutalization of Israeli public opinion that it has brought about. Anyone who actually wants to learn something about the horror of the Occupation should listen to one of Israel’s most distinguished journalists, who spoke in Auckland last December….
    
    GIDEON LEVY: Boycott is a legitimate strategy. Israel is forever pressing countries to boycott Iran and Hamas. People boycott butchers, and refuse to buy goods made in sweatshops. No one can claim that boycott is wrong. Many people won’t buy stolen goods—and anything made in the Occupied Territories is a stolen product. Boycott and sanction were very effective strategies against the South African apartheid state. The aggression towards BDS by the Jewish establishment convinces me that it’s the right tool. Psychologically, it’s having an increasing impact. There have been bills to criminalize BDS in the United States and Europe. This is unacceptable. It shows how weak the Israeli argument is if they have to prosecute people of conscience who want to boycott Israel. By the way, I am violating Israeli law right now—it’s going to be seven years’ jail for expressing support for BDS. We need to make Israel, and every Israeli, accountable.

  They went through the courts and followed the rule of law in their jurisdiction.
  The litigants have been harmed by the action of others and took it to court.
  They followed a legal process rather than head to the streets with violence which is generally the method of the BDS pricks.
  
  Compare and contrast with last weekend when a protracted judicial process to select a Judge to the SCOTUS was completed and still the loony left protested the results and had been disruptive for weeks.
  They can’t accept the rule of law.
  
  Compare and contrast with the #MeToo loonies who tear down males without any due process and this was carried over into the Supreme Court nomination where Crazy Blasey Ford was allowed to – in her Silly Little Girl voice- make false unsubstantiated accusations against the nominee while lying the whole time about Two doors and fear of flying at al.
  
  Compare and contrast with the fact that Kim DotCom was treated as a criminal with cops and dickheads rappelling into his house from helicopters over what is a civil matter (copyright) in NZ but was treated as a criminal matter to please the Hollyweirdos.
  We actually turned our legal process in NZ on its head to please an outside party.
  Like the big German lump or not, that is what happened and is a bad precedent.
  
  The libel laws are significantly different between USA and UK. People cope.
  
  Israel in this case wrote new law to cope with the vicious pricks of BDS. Good for them.
  It is better than the new law we are getting in NZ under the COL eg shutting down O+G.
  
  The victims here used legal process against some nasties who think they can get away with it but are now tainted via legal means.
  It is a better process than what Hamas and the Palestinians (and their acolytes like Gunt Davidson) use.

    You seem to be using the argument that as long as you followed the law in your own country then that makes it right.
    If NZ passed a law tomorrow making criticism of the Treaty of Waitangi a punishable offence then I gather you would support this as long as it was done legally?.

  I would have thought the state of Israel is more tolerant and open…
  
  That was a joke, right?
  
  Question No. 6: What can you tell us about the Knesset bill to ban the police filing corruption charges against any government officials?
  
  GIDEON LEVY: There are many cracks in Israel’s democracy, in particular that bill. There are many anti-democratic bills in the Israeli parliament now. Soon, even the notion that Israel is democratic for Jews will be gone. However, it still survives for the moment, and I enjoy full freedom to speak and write.

  It’s only a matter of time. The FED and other central banks expanded credit so much that savers get little reward. The excess liquidity always has a temporary home: world housing, shares, sharebuybacks, money for rich friends…
  
  Time for payback. When the liquidity is all mopped up too much risky borrowing adventure has already occurred. A slight reduction in availability through interest rate rises causes some defaults and a chain of consequences.
  
  Our banks have fed on the FED or others for the fixed interest rate mortgages and these can now be expected to be dearer on renewal. That puts our house prices as risk.
  
  NZ is not alone in the world no matter how much this phony govt claims to be managing the economy.

  What will be interesting is whether a NZ court would enforce the judgment. Usually the person who took the original court action has to arrange at his expense to enforce it in another country which means hiring a local lawyer, etc, etc. In this case the person suing is relying an a cause of action apparently not available in NZ so the chance of a NZ court enforcing it seems slim.

GROPERS
No. 48: Roger Ailes

“The Turks have a homely proverb applied on such occasions: they say ‘the fish stinks first at the head’, meaning, that if the servant is disorderly, it is because the master is so.”

—Sir James Porter, Observations on the Religion, Law, Government, and Manners of the Turks, 1768

2016: Shrouded in scandal, Ailes resigns from Fox News, ending his 20-year run at the network….

….

Andrea Tantaros, a former Fox News host, files a lawsuit alleging that she was sexually harassed by Ailes and O’Reilly.

Luhn, a former Fox News booker, has told investigators in the internal probe that she was harassed by Ailes for more than 20 years and that Fox News knew about it. “It was psychological torture.”….

…..

“Fox News masquerades as a defender of traditional family values, but behind the scenes, it operates like a sex-fueled, Playboy Mansion-like cult, steeped in intimidation, indecency and misogyny,” Tantaros claims in the suit.

    No he isn’t and wasn’t. Bill Clinton was credibly accused of rape by at least 3 separate women, yet their stories have been ignored for many years. So much for “believe the women”.
    
    Trump may well have had it off with a significant number of women including porn stars. There’s no equivalent credible accusations of rape. There are , I will agree, a number of claims of various forms of sexual assault, but that’s what you get if you pay up to such claims or get targeted by political activists.

      There’s no equivalent credible accusations of rape. There are , I will agree, a number of claims of various forms of sexual assault…
      
      The number is astounding. Even one of these incidents would make Trump unfit for a job cleaning the streets….
      
      Trump told radio host Howard Stern in 2005 that he would often go into the dressing rooms while the contestants were naked, saying in the recordings that he could “sort of get away with things like that.”
      
      The recordings also support claims from Bridget Sullivan, former Miss New Hampshire, that Trump would do this while contestants were undressed during the 2000 Miss USA pageant, BuzzFeed reports. Trump’s campaign originally denied her story, saying in May that her claims were “totally false.”
      
      But her story just received support from Donald Trump after CNN released the recordings yesterday, who owned the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants until last year.
      
      “I’ll tell you the funniest is that I’ll go backstage before a show and everyone’s getting dressed,” Trump told Stern in the recordings. “No men are anywhere, and I’m allowed to go in, because I’m the owner of the pageant and therefore I’m inspecting it…. ‘Is everyone OK’? You know, they’re standing there with no clothes. ‘Is everybody OK?’ And you see these incredible looking women, and so I sort of get away with things like that.”
      
      “The time that he walked through the dressing rooms was really shocking. We were all naked,” Sullivan told BuzzFeed.
      
      Comparing Trump to a “creepy uncle” Sullivan also said the presidential candidate would “hug you just a little low on your back,” according to Buzzfeed.
      
      Trump also referred to his daughter, Ivanka Trump, as a “piece of ass”, and talked about having threesomes, among making other vulgar comments about women in the recordings.

This is from USA, but it applies here in NZ

Tax his land,

Tax the table,
At which he’s fed.

Tax his tractor,
Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes
Are the rule.

Tax his work,
Tax his pay,

Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his cigars,
Tax his beers,
If he cries
Tax his tears.

Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his ass.

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won’t be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He’s good and sore.

Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he’s laid…

Put these words
Upon his tomb,
‘Taxes drove me
to my doom…’

When he’s gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply
The inheritance tax.

stinkypete

the socialists numpties have given GPs 3 weeks to decide to accept a deal that would limit our co payment for community service card holders to $18.50
they will offer us a lump sum and it would come near to replacing the loss in income
this is going to split practices into those catering for community service card holders at 18 dollars a head with shit service and short appointments and then practices dealing with ‘ A3″ patients who pay and will get better service
its going to create virtually private funded GP practices versus state GP practices for the poor
its a disaster

  There’s nothing that a socialist government would like more, than to gain control over general practice – shades of the NHS. This is one way in which they doubtless hope to drive a wedge between practices; once this has been achieved, they’ll gradually make it more attractive for GPs to buy into the new scheme, which will gradually be developed towards a full capitation system, progressively isolating the rest.
  It will be a disaster if it’s not vigorously opposed; but some GPs will probably sell out. I once worked under the NHS ‘free for all’ service, and it was a bloody nightmare.

The word ‘man’ was originally gender neutral, meaning more or less the same as the modern day word “person”.
http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2010/08/the-word-man-was-originally-gender-neutral/
It was only about 1000 years ago that we started to get wifmen, or wife-men and women were called something different to men.
Wife, it turns out, originally used to refer to a person who was skilled in something, like a house-wife or a fish-wife etc and could refer to men or women. A man could be a fish-wife or a sword-wife etc.
As such a wifman, or woman, originally just meant a skilled person and was gender neutral.
I can see why modern radical feminists hate the term.

  Same with “girl”. That was originally a term for a child.

  I thought that the suffix “-man” comes from “manus” or “hand,” such as in “farmhand.”
  
  It would be gender neutral.

  Women should be where they were 1000 years ago says Islam. Bag-wife, unseen by Infidels, anti Israel and a breeding machine. I can see why modern feminists cuddle up to this ideology.

  That’s just about right: ‘mann’ originally referred to any person (in the singular) or people/humanity (in the plural). It resembles the modern word ‘one’ when relating to an abstract human identity.
  The word for a male used to be ‘wermann’ and a female was, as you say, a ‘wifmann’. In time, the extra ‘n’ was lost; then the male form dropped the ‘wer-‘ part; whilst the female form first became ‘wiman’ and later, ‘woman’.
  The term ‘wife’ followed a slightly different course, just as you have said; it is analogous to ‘husband’ (from the word for house + holder), so that we now talk of ‘husbandry’ to describe the prudent use of resources (as in ‘animal husbandry’). The spousal reference came later.
  This is all part of the attraction of the English language: its subtleties, nuances, and derivations.
  None of it, however, appears to carry any sway with the feminists, who seem determined to take offence at any term containing ‘man’, regardless.

    Just as ‘housewife’ referred to household management, housecraft. Soldiers and sailors carried a ‘housewife’ – a type of sewing kit, with thread, buttons, needles and other useful items. Originally pronounced ‘hussive’.

Mid-launch abort of Soyuz rocket with an astronaut and cosmonaut on board. First time since 1975. Both alive and well after a ballistic re-entry (experienced 6.7G’s as they re-entered the atmosphere).

A testament to the engineering marvel that is the Soyuz rocket.

Of course, not a peep about this event in our media.

It actually ISN’T, but because it’s just so, so, LIBERATING, it’s just GOT to be shared…

It doesn’t matter that you may not actually WANT to have it shared, you will be FORCED to participate, ‘cos if you don’t you’re a xxxxxxxx (Insert offensive word of choice).

There was no minimum non-parole reported. If correct he could be out in 3 years. Thumbs up if you think the sentence appropriate. Thumbs down if you think this POS should have got a lot more.

  What I find interesting here is the whole case is sewn up in less than 6 months, including 6 days tracking him down. Good. The bastard deserves more than he got.

    I think you will find the difference is that this guy plead guilty so it never went to trial but in the case of the Labour youth camp guy he plead not guilty so the matter now has to go to trial.
    Going to trial will lengthen out the process considerably.

That speaks volumes of the Australian cricket fraternity, followed very closely by their NRL players.
If you haven’t heard of The Inbetweeners, it’s a British TV series full of puerile misogynistic tripe that pimply-faced teenaged boys get off on.

  Dickhead. It’s an examination of real issues that late teenage boys actually experience. It’s comedy and far better than many.
  Would you prefer it was Misandrist comedy? Go on have a sex in the city binge tonight. Inbetween reading 50 shades and jerking off. You could even top it off with a Twilight nightcap.

Good on Mr West for his recent honesty about society.
The Dems have harmed black people by setting out with their hatred of men to remove them from the family unit. To encourage women to have more fatherless children by paying them more to do so. The intent to create more poverty, to hold the black man down, to harm children due to the effects of fatherlessness, and create future voters.

Evil man hating bigots.

The funny thing is MSM is having a spaz attack over this and are making themselves look like fools by mocking his Bipolar, education, and being negro. His comments aren’t even being debated but the character assassination is full lunatic.

  Yup, funny how black people aren’t allowed to wander from the liberal plantation and have their own opinions.
  
  Rapper T.I. had one of the most intense reactions, unleashing on Kanye in a lengthy Instagram post.
  
  “The most repulsive, disgraceful, embarrassing act of desperation & auctioning off of one’s soul to gain power I’ve ever seen,” raged the ‘Whatever You Like’ hitmaker.
  
  “This shit is next level, futuristic Sambo, Hopping Bob, Stephen off Django [Unchained] ass shit… [Kanye is] ass kissing and boot licking on a whole new level.
  
  “If you listen closely you can hear the tears of our ancestors hit the floor… I’ve reached my limits. This is my stop, I’m officially done.”
  
  https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/entertainment/2018/10/the-strongest-reactions-to-kanye-west-s-white-house-meeting-with-trump.html
  
  If this low information rapper, T.I, has done his research he would have read that Frederick Douglass, the former black slave and abolitionist was good friends with Abraham Lincoln, the first Republican president. He visited the Whitehouse several times. And it was Republicans who freed the slaves, while Democrats wanted to keep them in chains. That’s why they fought the Civil War. Democrats were all in favour of segregation, but it was Republicans who got passed the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments that gave blacks Civil Rights. And the KKK were predominantly Democrats.

  Excitatory as opposed to exciting perhaps.
  
  I’m here. Just as disgusted and appalled as I was yesterday. I haven’t been banned – which is to the credit of those who curate Kiwiblog.
  
  We, together, in a collaborative effort, surprisingly established that Kiwiblog endorses the murder by Jewish terrorism of innocents (including Jews and Kiwis) by 200pound bomb.
  
  The credulousness of individuals unable to accept that Mr Rosenfeld is 100% not a ‘crazy individual’ and instead an operative, attempting yet another instance of Israeli domestic terrorism in the United States was evident. There is plenty of evidence to that effect. There was plenty of evidence related to 9/11 as well. There is no point proferring it, because it will be dismissed, of course.
  
  I genuinely did not expect to be hit with a barrage of downticks for expressing opposition to radical jewish terrorism by a radical jewish supremacist who happens to be state sponsored by a radical national socialist jewish state. I went as far as to observe the analog of the occurrence in Israel. Even that apparently didn’t move these hypocrats. Yes, these Kiwiblog aristocrats of hypocrisy.
  
  It’s quite interesting. I did some research. Have a look in the NZHerald archives. New Zealand’s Jewish community is quite active, as they always are, in censorship and destruction of individuals who point out the lies in their victim narratives. There was a brilliant student at Canterbury University who had a new, unassailable angle on the Holocaust. He got shoahed. His work got shoahed. Not because it wasn’t true, of course. Just because it arose ‘badfeels’.
  
  Mr Farrar deserves extra respect and credit for taking the lead on defending free speech in New Zealand, given it seems his peers are leaders in seeking to destroy it, as they’ve destroyed it all over the west. Always based on their miserable, illegitimate feelings of oppression, as they oppress everyone else and purport not to see it, or understand the confusion and justifiable grievance it creates.
  
  So, EAD – you are probably the most honest and intelligent poster on Kiwiblog GeneralDebate. Isn’t it laughable?
  
  Rosenfeld is vastly worse then one guy driving a car to get away from a crowd smashing his to pieces at Charlottesville. Yet Kiwiblog had plenty to say about that. A 200 pound bomb in Times Square and the National Mall is quite bad isn’t it. Oh he’s just a ‘crazy’. Right, how many crazies know how to make bombs of that magnitude? And that contention was never raised. Just mass downticks at the mere effrontery of pointing it out, which I found interesting and stimulating, so continued examining the point.

  So. In honour of the Kiwibloggers who endorse the indiscriminate murder of innocents by Jewish terrorism, have a look at this:
  
  https://www.henrymakow.com/
  
  Makow is another exiled dissident, like Ron Unz, Michael Hoffmann, Stephen Miller, Roy Kohn and many others.
  
  Read “The Bloody Satanic Sacrifice Rituals of the Jewish Race” by Ariel Toaff, a brilliant and lauded Israeli scholar, at least of course, until he turned his talents to an honest look at his own people’s history. It chronicled, in unassailable detail, numerous instances of blood sacrifice of Christian children by Jewish people, and it was of course, shut down. Like ‘The Strange Religion” by Michael Hoffmann – it has been shoahed everywhere. Because these people as Solzhenitsyn said are the biggest enemies of truth. Truth is anti-semitic, just like it’s racist when it serves western interests as opposed to Jewish interests.
  
  Not just that – Gaelic is being [phased out – because it is ‘exclusionary’ and promotes ‘unequal feelings of belonging’. The Jews are going to do in Ireland what they falsely accused the Crown of doing here – destroying a native language. Given the preoccupation of the Kabbalah with words and their power, I find this doubly revolting. Not only are they destroying a competing religion. They are destroying a precious European indigenous language and culture alongside. Gaelic will die. All the weasel words in the world cannot contend otherwise. So never listen when these people talk about anthropology and multi-culturalism. It’s a total lie.
  
  Israel Shahak is another dissident who got shoahed. He is brilliant on the religious side of things as well. I didn’t realise possessing a Talmud with an English translation is something that gets people killed. Luckily in New Zealand, no one cares about this stuff. Which is to our credit. But someone has to care. Or we wake up one morning and it’s 3 years in prison if your hurt Paddy Gower’s feelings.
  
  Why this seeming focus on this, people wonder? What’s Mr Lo’s ‘problem’. He obviously needs his nurse.
  
  Because these people are accelerating the rate at which they are destroying western civilization, and we will not escape.
  
  I looked into Ireland. That poster was correct. The Jewish lobby in Ireland, with the other diverse communities, are going to end Irish Catholicism. Think about how terrible this is on so many levels. No matter the degree of persecution claimed by Jews (as opposed to reality) for the most part until they egregiously offended, they were allowed to practice their religion.
  
  As soon as they’ve obtained power in a country like Ireland, and control over information dissemination (Ireland can’t access alt media), they pass laws to destroy christian religion utterly, forever, whilst preserving their own. A reminder – as was stated. Catholic Irish cannot prioritise catholic kids for catholic schools. They must take minority religions and anti-religious, even as both retain the rights to preferential exclusions for their own schools. Catholicism is now dead in Ireland. It’s just breathing out it’s last breaths. No catholic schools means a return to the days of Oliver Cromwell.
  
  As that poster stated, such an evil violation means every right-thinking Irish person now should have a hatred of the Jews sharper then any hatred previously conceived. Because Ireland welcomed these people. Gave them peace, prosperity, and safe harbour. And in return, they are destroying catholicism, even as they talk about ‘Judeo-Christianity’. I hope the IRA reminds them that Ireland has always been subject to cultural occupation. But this is worse even then the British degradation. The British didn’t pretend to be friends. These snakes croon about how they respect and admire the Irish, and even are Irish. Even as they totally destroy their culture, and they seek to replace every single Irish person within 50 years. In 50 years Ireland will be almost indistinguishable from Islamabad. Even as Israel has passed it’s blood citizenry Nuremberg laws.

    New Zealand has a large Irish population.
    
    I hope they understand – the Jews hate you. From the bottom of their heart and soul. They hate you, and want you and your homeland to be exterminated.
    
    They hate you for things you never did. They hate you for things you couldn’t possibly do. They hate you for things you’d never have done. They hate you despite you extending them safe harbour and the hands of friendship. They are going to destroy your religion. They will see you children raped on industrial scale, just like in Rotherham/Telford etc, then they’ll erect laws to arrest you when you seek justice.
    
    They will destroy your language. They will destroy centuries of hard fought preservation of giants like Yeats, Heaney, and the Irish Nationalists. The men who thundered in the commons will be memory holed.
    
    They will laugh as they abort your children. They will chortle as they trapise off to their special schools for them, and only them, while your kids learn sexual play and consciousness and that Ireland was always muslim.
    
    All those centuries of struggle, actual oppression, actual devastating persecution and genocide by sword and famine that makes every Jewish fake story look like the fabrication they largely are, will culminate in the original colony being totally destroyed by the ultimate colonisers.
    
    So yeah, Kiwiblog is a joke. It’s audience are a joke. And I hope the Irish in New Zealand understand what is happening in their homeland.
    
    I also hope the Pacific Islanders understand that if Jews can destroy christianity in Ireland, they can and will try the same thing in Australia and New Zealand. Okay? If you’re Samoan, or Tongan, or Fijian, and you think you and your children will be able to worship Jesus Christ, who they hate more then anything in the universe, think again. The Irish for centuries preserved their religion. By candle-light. Under conditions of absolute poverty and hopelessness. And it was real. Not fake. Not fake like the myths told about the pale of settlement and the non-existent Ashkenzi exodus etc. Not fake like that fakery. Real.
    
    And it’s going to end.
    
    So if you’re Pacific Island, and Christian – understand, these people hate you. They think you’re stupid. They think you’re low IQ and primitive idiots. They will destroy your capacity to worship Jesus Christ, and they will laugh about it – like they’ve done in Ireland.
    
    And I don’t give a damn if this makes people uncomfortable.

      I read several of his earlier books, and he went to the wives of ex German generals and found various documents. So he did use some originals sources.
      In one of his books he shows that Hitler hardly ever mentioned the Jews or the camps.
      
      We must not always believe what we are told, in secondary books and by Hollywood.
      Eg Johnathon Parshall’s book Shattered Sword on Midway proves that the accepted wisdom that the Japanese carrier decks were full of planes is incorrect.

        “In one of his books, he shows that Hitler hardly ever mentioned the Jews or the camps.” ??
        
        n the course of my life I have very often been a prophet, and have usually been ridiculed for it. During the time of my struggle for power it was in the first instance only the Jewish race that received my prophecies with laughter when I said that I would one day take over the leadership of the State, and with it that of the whole nation, and that I would then among other things settle the Jewish problem. Their laughter was uproarious, but I think that for some time now they have been laughing on the other side of their face. Today I will once more be a prophet: if the international Jewish financiers in and outside Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, then the result will not be the Bolshevizing of the earth, and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!

  Speaking of Cromwell. Why is Britain such a sick society in the aggregate? If you move outside the concentric circles where the embezzled cash of the City of London Corporation operates, it’s starting to look a bit like Russia under the Oligarchs, just with a few ‘indigenous’ differences. Why?
  
  You have a vicious police state on it’s way to becoming a Caliphate. It is characterised by industrial scale child abuse of European children, the imprisonment of individuals who speak out against abuses by the diverse (especially the jews) in their thousands every year, parallel economy and money laundering, and vicious surveillance and political policing even as the police don’t answer people who speak English and crime rages out of control.
  
  That’s because in England both parties are totally captured by Jewish lobbies – all of their memberships have to come through the Labour Friends of Israel, or the Conservative Friends of Israel. What you see in England is a Talmud society. Just like in Russia under the Oligarchs – that’s the preferential model for England. It’s so interesting that the massive population reduction in Russia under those Jewish Oligarchs is never commented upon. No wonder they like Putin. Even though he is a mafioso criminal himself, he doesn’t regard slavs as Sub-Human like the Oligarchs did. So he doesn’t do things like cut of power to entire districts so hundreds and even thousands of people freeze to death for speaking out against the Oligarchs etc.
  
  As long as the Jews feel nice in unrecognisable London where there are no British people, and have their own separate clean water and paramilitaries keeping the diversity crime out of their junctions etc, they’re happy to see 1million English girls raped, and make sure anyone who talks about it goes to prison etc.
  
  Australia is now in for the same treatment. Very swiftly, free speech was destroyed in New South Wales within a couple of months. It is now illegal to say the bad things the Jews and their Chinese and muslim friends do. Australia is going to become unrecognisable. Everyone will wonder what happened. It’s simple. The Deputies are simply following the model they always implement. The population will be replaced, and they will sit at the top, safe and secure in Mosman and North Shore totally exclusive and xenophobic. They are already forming social alliances with high aptitude Chinese and Indians they are busily subverting Australia alongside. The Chinese will probably eventually supplant them in Australia. But they’re betting they can run the same game with them as they did with pre Gough-Whitlam Australia.
  
  And there is no reason the same pattern shouldn’t play out in NZ. It’s not inevitable. Mr Farrar and Mr Key both show that individuals can be wonderful people of superlative character who simply adopt a moderate multicultural outlook with free speech etc and that’s great. But it is equally apparent that they are anomalous within their communities.
  
  It’s this incredibly malign almost unbelievable hypocrisy, aversion to truth, solipsism, fake victimhood and neurosis that destroys societies which is at issue. What really grates is the affected startlement. How could anyone possibly oppose having their religion destroyed, their speech destroyed, their nations destroyed, and their freedoms destroyed? Anti-semitism!
  
  I apologise for the cussing. I simply cannot fathom how a supposedly affluent and educated blog audience endorses indiscriminate mass murder by Jews. Maybe I just think too much.
  
  I hope you continue to remind Kiwibloggers and the people who congregate here of all of these things.
  
  I’m just viscerally revolted by the what was gleaned yesterday. At no stage did I expect mass downticks for citing and opposing indiscriminate terrorism that could catalyse further violence based on false pretences.
  
  Buy those books before they get memory holed forever, copy them (with the author’s permission) share them.
  
  Just absolutely revolting. Every single poster on Kiwiblog owes you an apology. Every poster owes all New Zealanders who spend time in the United States an apology.

    Yes, more downticks. Hilarious.
    
    Yes, it’s racist to talk about those 1million raped English girls, raped by muslims exploiting Jewish laws. Those fathers in Bradford and Leeds ‘should’ be arrested in the street for pointing through a window at live rapes for anti-semitism and ‘breach of the peace’ and racism. That’s only fair. That’s the Iraeli way. That’s the Talmudic sense of justice. If you throw a goyim in a hole, but you put a ladder there while they’re unconscious – you are not guilty of murder. They could have got out had they only retained their consciousness. The Jew is not at fault.
    
    It’s anti-semitic to feel grievously wounded by the abolishment of the Gaelic culture and catholic religion in Ireland, and by the plans to use Irish taxpayers money to import 1-5million Indians and Africans into Ireland so the Irish nation is utterly destroyed. The Irish should just accept it. Instead of eventually forming a mass IRA and removing the perverts and subverts formulating and implementing this policy. Maybe someone should send those guys the organisational principles of Vladimir Jabotinksi – Netanyahu’s mentor and founder of Irgun. It worked in Israel. Maybe it can work in reverse.
    
    It’s anti-semitic to ever tell the truth about things like blood sacrifice, or the actual occurrences of history.
    
    It’s anti-semitic to oppose massive indiscriminate murder by Israeli intelligence operatives in the heart of the United States of America. The Goyim apparently should simply cover Israeli plastic explosives with their bodies, to be walked over.
    
    It’s anti-semitic to oppose constant Jewish attempts to destroy the first and second amendment, and impose ruthless anti-speech regimes, like they’ve just done in NSW because they don’t want a repeat of Donald Trump in Australia.
    
    The ultimate, religiously motivated Social Justice Warriors always lie, and always double down.
    
    Just hilarious. The 1 SD Ashkenazi IQ gap is a myth, just like so much else. No one ever contends. I just get mass downticks and stupid puerile non-responses. The Standard is of a higher standard then this.
    
    No one ever says something is wrong. I just get an NPC frown.

    Oh no, someone told the truth. I feel so horribly victimised. Kiwiblog is actually worse then the worst purplehair on this material. Really, quite pathetic. Quite bizarrely pathetic. What is wrong with everyone?
    
    Terrorism against New Zealanders is bad.
    
    !!??!!??
    
    Subversion to stoke civil wars in allied countries is bad.
    
    !!??!!??
    
    Destroying religions and people who gave you friendship and advance is bad.
    
    !!??!!??
    
    Anyway, carry on.
    
    Yeah, but it’s just extremely angering. I think in ten years, there will be no Jews left in Europe. Whether it’s their muslim ‘friends’ or the locals, they are going to get removed from all the jurisdictions, again. And they’ll screech and kvetch and talk about the evil amalekites and the goy hating them for no reason. And it’s a total joke. Just think about it.
    
    So anyway – Pacific Islanders, don’t comport with the snakes. The Irish did. Now their Christian religion is being phased out. Defend your nations.
    
    Thanks Kiwiblog. As always, I’m very impressed by the intellectual calibre and moral integrity on display.

      Every cloud has its silver lining. Only Islam & Judaism to go.

      I’ve been inspired to log on just to downtick you.
      
      Just in case you’re not one of Kiwiblog’s more prolific trolls hiding under yet another identity, I will answer your question of what is wrong with everyone.
      
      Commenters here are used to trolls. They pop up like clockwork, spouting much the same material that you have prolifically posted over the last couple of days.
      
      Same old same old.
      
      You might as well run around with a giant sign on your back saying kick me and then moan about why you keep getting kicked.

        I have a feeling that you’re right. The commenter changes from time to time but the theme is rock solid.

  ‘Not Going Out’ was one of the funniest shows on TV, and Lee’s quick puns and double entendre have me in fits of laughter. Unfortunately many of the YouTube episodes on my smart tv are unwatchable because of bad recording.

  Woah! So does that mean Jacinda has raised petrol tax not by 6.8c as she originally claimed, but by 21.3c (i.e. 6.8c + 10c a litre Auckland Regional Fuel Tax and 3.5c a litre fuel excise tax) … and in other words, 3 times as much as she first claimed??!!
  
  Who’s really doing the fleecing again, Jacinda??!!!

    Jacinda and Grant want to spend more of our money, so they need more from us, and running Labour Party sausage sizzles is hard work!

  Your lucky it wasn’t Uranus.
  
  Just interested in a hypothetical.
  
  What is required so that everybody is satisfied about the identity of the first person to set foot on Mars?
  
  Adern could be the person for the job.
  
  A degree from a generic tertiary provider. A relatively pointless degree instead of one of those snobby intellect science things, or counting. Has to appear intelligent but not to nerdy as in Womens Weekly level loveable. Female as the patriarchy stole the moon. While possibly not LGBQ? ethnic, or a solo mother she is immersed in those cultures. Pretty much past breeding age as you wouldn’t want to create publicity conflicts. Plus it’s a long trip so they have to be dedicated to the cause.
  
  We could send Winston first. No need for life support. He’s already preserved.

A great question for Ardern in Parliament would be “How much of the rise in petrol from the 1st October has been due to government taxes and levies?”

Gandalf: “A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.”

  Gandalf comes from behind placing his large masculine hand on Frodo’s shoulder. In his other hand he supported his big staff. “Frodo show me your majic ring. I dare not put my finger in. I simply couldn’t handle it. Keep it safe Frodo, keep it secret.
