David George

The Maori Party have come out with their bottom lines in coalition negotiations and, as you would expect, it’s outrageous, undemocratic, supremacist nonsense. As is their wont. It leaves Hipkins with a serious problem – particularly since the Greens (and to some extent TOP) and Jackson & Co have shown broad support for the ethno nationalists.
I hope, and expect, that at least Peters and Seymour will come out with all guns blazing.

We all know that Te Media will try and twist it but it’s important that the very real prospect of He Puapua #2 being implemented is made clear to the people before it’s too late.

  I don’t know how swing voters can look at that lot and see a government in waiting. The Centre Right Coalition provides a known stable government. The Left Coalition has a smorgasbord of new taxes and constitutional change.

  Yes.
  Had discussion with relative last night.
  Nat voter (might have party voted ACT last time}.
  Not voting Nat this time as so disillusioned and disappointed with the National Party in general and it’s leadership.
  Promises not kept etc, little or no attempt to carry out policy they said they would . Just kicking the can down the road regarding the promotion of one race over the rest.
  I think this is a real problem for the National Party’s election prospects.
  My relative is not going to vote instead for the “communist bloc” which he acknowledges would be “worse” – just not National.
  Does the Nat Party have any strategy to win back the support of voters like him?
  Or don’t care?

    I am edging towards giving my party vote to ACT for the first time ever. I do think some National Ministers have performed well. The media distortion has probably been unprecedented. TVNZ News the other night reporting that crime has got a lot worse under National. The reality is people are being arrested now and this reflects crime statistics

      I read a review of Barry Soper speaking at WORD in Christchurch, on substack. Soper said that Luxon has been given the hardest time of any PM by media. Gave the impression in his book that he thought him much better than he is portrayed.

    Could vote NZF or Act – except they are in the same coalition as National so aren’t they also part of the problem, not the solution ?
    If only we had a right wing party that wasn’t actually in Govt now.

      NZF may be part of the problem you see Prince.
      
      ACT however have tried very hard through this term to get things done, and have punched above their weight, in many areas, but, on the matters we voted on have been stymied by the Nats and NZFirst.
      
      Co Governance being but one example which could have been and should have been dealt to in the first 6 months of this Coalition.
      
      ACT set the platform with the Treaty Principles Bill and National and NZF turned their backs on it for no good reason.

        Not necessarily. There’re parties and there’re personalities. In the ideal world, if they form a coalition, they should have enough in common for the coalition to work. But politics is an art of compromise. Sometimes, what suits Joe Bloggs is not exactly a flavour of the day with Jane Bloggs. And so in order to find a common ground and to stop a big domestic from blowing up, both have to give in on this or that every so often. Just like in the marriage…

        I think Nicola Willis said that co-governance simply wasn’t an issue for under 45-year-olds.
        
        Whether that actually means that it genuinely isn’t an issue or, it’s just one of the many issues that an under 45-year-old wouldn’t think about until it smacks them firmly in the face, is what I’m not so sure about…

    IMHO The Nats ACT and NZF should be asking their supporters in safe or marginal Nat seats to give their electorate vote to the Nat candidate and their Party vote to either ACT or NZF. They should also publish a list of these seats. It would be a tragedy if the Coalition lost because not enough supporters knew to do this.
    The days of Two Ticks Voting are over. Its all about Tactical Voting.

      “Tactical” voting is only possible because of the very corrupt MMP system.
      In a perfect world the possibility of tactical voting would not be available.
      And voters would respect the suffrage generations have fought for and vote with integrity. (That is, not gaming the system).
      Alas , it is not a perfect world , and voters themselves share responsibility for that.

        Why is this corrupt? this is exactly how it works – i tick for the Electoral politician to show support for their hard work in parliament. A tick for the party I think has worked the hardest – I have always split my vote for these reasons. If you lazily just vote for National / Labour as if the electoral and party votes are equal – more fool you

        I cannot fault the care I have received as I believe I have used the system appropriately, don’t use ed for a flu or suchlike, that is what clogs them up

        Maybe you should fact check labour. Nelson hospital has more beds and about20% more nurses since National took power. Labours figure of 54 nurses increase is a lie. But then the nurses union always campaign for Labour.

        The current health minister is Brown, a Nat and his associates are Seymour, Doocey & Costello.
        Previously under the Labour government all associates to Verrall were also Labour.
        So it doesn’t really matter who has been running Health it’s gradually slip sliding away

        collapsing healthcare system???
        
        2022/23 ~$24 billion – $26 billion (initial baseline)
        Marked the major structural transition of health reforms (abolishing District Health Boards and launching Te Whatu Ora and Te Aka Whai Ora), alongside ongoing pandemic response funding.
        
        2023/24 $26.5 billion Incorporated final segments of the $9.7 billion multi-year COVID-19 response fund, alongside baseline hospital and primary care injections.
        
        2024/25 $29.6 billion Introduced targeted multi-year funding to meet surging demographic demands, volume growth, and severe cost pressures in frontline services.
        
        2025/26 $32.7 billion Delivered a notable funding uplift (~$32.1 to $32.7 billion core health baseline), focusing heavily on cutting wait times, boosting primary care access, and increasing elective surgeries.
        
        2026/27 $33.0 billion to $34.2 billion (Core Crown/Total) Represented about 70% of all new government operating spending in the budget, prioritizing hospital infrastructure upgrades, cybersecurity, and operational baselines despite tighter fiscal constraints on secondary agencies.

    No way I’m voting for Luxon. He’s on the woke train to co-governance. And National’s best attempts to lose the election are another reason. National don’t deserve to win making them the least bad option I guess.

  David George – The Maori Party have come out with their bottom lines in coalition negotiations
  
  Under ACT’s stance, equality before the law requires a strictly neutral, secular state. ACT treats traditional Māori spiritual practices under the same umbrella as any other religious or faith-based worldview, maintaining that giving state sanction, funding, or compulsory status to any spiritual framework conflicts with the core principle of treating every citizen as an equal individual.
  
  Although I haven’t seen this expressed as an ACT “bottom line” I doubt ACT will be sucked in to such a statement. I suspect they have learnt several things from their Treaty Principles Bill experience.

    TPM can come out with whatever bottom lines they like, or the Opportunities Party for that matter
    It doesn’t mean a bag of beans.
    The best these parties can hope for is some sort of confidence and supply arrangement with largest minority coalition.
    Neither of them will be in coalition with Luxon, obviously, but Opportunities might be tempted with confidence and supply.

      But the Greens are almost entirely supportive of the Maori Party’s mad ideas and there is significant sympathy within Labour. Machiavellian Willy Jackson wants co-governance but called something else and, lest we forget, it was Labour that chose to hide their He Puapua agenda from the people in the 2020 election. They then went and introduced many of it’s recommendations anyway.
      So no, I’m not at all confident that the Labour would hold out against the ethno nationalists.

  Is it simply that people vote to make their lives worse at the altar of ideology and loathing for those that Elon Musk calls ordinary people? (Some of whom vote for Peters, Seymour and Trump).

    Notsofast – Serious question, why do Te Media want maori rule?
    
    This is not a question confined to “Te Media” only.
    Why did Ardern’s Labour Governments push it so far – was there implications of a Maori Caucus succession?
    Jacinda, despite her –
    
    “So when we return, in one year, in three years, I ask you to ask of us what we have done. Ask us how we have given dignity back to your whānau, ask us what we have done to improve poverty for tamariki, ask us what we have done to give rangatahi opportunities and jobs, ask us, hold us to account. Because one day I want to be able to tell my child that I earned the right to stand here and only you can tell me when I have done that.”
    
    – she wasn’t particularly interested, and had to have Willie Jackson, standing behind her, remind her what is in Article 1 of the Treaty.
    
    Maori Élite will benefit from Maori rule, but what any other general motivation is – that of ‘ordinary people’ – is beyond me.

      I thought Te Media rather apt.
      Journalists belong to a tribe, necessary to have friends, as do academics.
      They use offices and equipment where everything they can see was constructed by ordinary people. They have no wish to be ordinary people, they feel superior for being other.
      100% of Stanford professors are democrat supporters, NPR had one republican sympathizer from about 80, and he was fired.
      It seems the same here.

  Can someody tell me what is it with the so called media in New Zealand that they go out of their way to denigrate everything they can do to try and destroy our country ?
  It is actually sad even more as it is Father’s Day today in which we acknowledge and support the male versions of the populace, more often those who go our of their way to promote our country both internally and internationally.
  I assume it is because they are products of our failed feminist left wing education system along often with their parents before them.

The Tesla Cybercab has launched in the US, the latest driverless transport option. Some testing done here I believe. Sounds like it may have a regulatory hurdle or two. Cost effectiveness, likely, will see rapid driverless take up, and not just Tesla.

One off goods deliveries now by a driver will be early adopters.

Does New Zealand have a plan for a driverless sea change?

  The self driving cars are probably safe, however, can you imagine the average NZ driver being willing to tolerate following an unmanned vehicle at 50km/h….
  
  The cars are programmed to yield to any obstacle, they will be used as opportunities to play chicken, brake check, and anything else the average moron chooses.

  I use Uber, so a driverless one would be the logical next step. Works for me. I guess it’d compete with Waymo. In Florida, it’d eliminate the problem of unauthorized drivers using their mates car. A prang in that case voids insurance.

Good morning from the Kingdom…a cool start to another booooring Sunday with (almost) everything closed.

And NO Scott, I won’t be going to church to listen to the Tongans being shouted at in between the magnificent singing.

  You should try reading a couple of the four gospels so that you better understand what it is that makes your Tongan friends tick when they do go to church.
  
  If my guess is not wrong, you, like me, have across the course of your life, probably read thousands of pages of leftist nonsense in order to a) react to it, and b) understand if there’s a grain of truth in it on occasion.
  
  But the gospels? The secular right winger insists that reading even 5 pages of what his society is built around would somehow be a uniquely pernicious and offensive waste of time.

This piqued my interest.
https://www.1news.co.nz/2026/09/05/new-world-map-reflecting-africas-true-size-endorsed-by-un/
If you want true representation of all countries it was quite simple. It was called a bloody Globe.
What’s next, Chatham Islands putting in a claim at being in the Western Hemisphere ? regardless the “New Visionary” map distorts The Polar regions the most. Are the Eskimos going to get it changed?
Jesus a few basic geography lessons and Map reading is needed at the UN.
Incidently Africa was the truest representation in the Mercator Projection by stradling both sodes of the equator.
Is this what we require from the UN?

    There’s nothing magic about a straight line on a Mercator map. It is not normally the shortest distance between two points. There are other projections where a straight line is a great circle …..

  NZ Aviation charts are Lambert Conformal Conic, LINZ topos are Transverse Mercator where the “equator” is a line of longitude. There are other projections and reasons to use them for specific situations. If you are going any sort of distance, a straight line on a regular Mercator map is usually not the shortest route …..

The Saxony-Anhalt state election is about to be underway in Germany. All eyes will be on AfD, expected to lead the state government, possibly alone, based on polling.

AfD is routinely named ‘far right’. The party does have tough immigration policies so there’s that.

More state elections coming up …

    There’s certainly been what appears to be a concerted effort in the international media and also by the Establishment in Germany to “other” the AfD .
    From calling them “far right” , ( you never see the Greens referred to as far left or indeed now the Democratic Socialists of America), the secret service calling them a threat to the constitution , down to “pro Putin who would impede Federal efforts in the case of Russian aggression”.
    
    All of these allegations are very similar to the ones cast at the likes of Reform in the UK.
    And it’s the same types de legitimising patriotic battler Pauline Hanson .
    
    Speaking of which ; British borrowing costs are now at multi decade highs , higher even than when the Elites used the bond market excuse to launch their coup against Truss . Any talk of a coup against ‘Eyebrows Andy’ from the City , Fleet Street and Whitehall Elites , of course not . These “progressives” are all hand in hand.

    my dental technician- from the former East Germany
    ———–
    
    I’m not really surprised.
    Visited what used to be East Germany last year. First shock at the Berlin Gesundbrunnen railway station. If I didn’t see the sign, I’d have thought that I was in some strange, very backward country. Disorganized, filthy and…but I don’t want to be taken for a racist, so I’ll skip that part.
    Then Turingen; Jena, Erfurt and Leipzig. Come out of the main railway station in Leipzig and you are right in the middle of a camp of the homeless people. Just out of the main entrance. Drinking, taking drugs, bothering people, all right there. With rudimentary tarpaulin covers and what passes for a bedding on the footpath. And the police completely ignoring it.
    All these cities are otherwise quite well maintained except of just about every building covered by graffiti.
    Not all that many non-Europeans to be seen, but the ones that are there appear to be sticking with their own kind. I haven’t been there long enough to say if they integrate with the locals, but the person (a Kiwi) who lives there and whom I was visiting reckons that they don’t. I don’t know what the economy is like there; all these places looked prosperous enough, but one has to live there to see what’s really like. The person I was visiting is doing OK, but he’s a scientist employed by one of the local universities, so his situation is not typical.
    
    As a bit of curiosity…on the train from Berlin, a bloke came to the compartment I was in. Dressed in tee shirt, shorts and jandals. Introduced himself as Shane from NZ. A Maori guy from Bluff, travelling all over Europe as it was. We started talking and it came out that we had quite a few acquaintances in common, I used to know his uncle and first cousin quite well. It’s a small world, isn’t it…?

Nevada Axes Nearly 400,000 Voter Records from Active Rolls — Democrats’ 87,000-Voter Lead Collapses to Just 672.
The Democrat Party’s once-dominant voter-registration advantage in Nevada has been virtually erased following an enormous statewide voter-roll cleanup, California Globe reported.
Today, Democrats are hanging on to a statewide lead of just 672 voters, down from an 87,000-voter lead.
New figures released by Democrat Secretary of State Francisco “Cisco” Aguilar show Nevada’s active voter rolls dropped 50,130 in August alone after routine list maintenance.
[This is mostly due to voter list maintainence. The Democrats advantage has gone from 960000 to les than 1000. Inactive voters won’t get mail in ballots. It doesn’t say anything about dead people getting them.]

Labor Day Jobs Report Shows Trumpnomics Is Working
.By Peter NavarroSeptember 04, 2026
Labor Day Jobs Report Shows Trumpnomics Is WorkingAP
The August jobs report delivered a message the Wall Street commentariat keeps missing: Trumpnomics is working, and nowhere is that clearer than in manufacturing.
Nonfarm payrolls rose by 162,000 in August, nearly triple market expectations. June and July were revised up by another 55,000 jobs. Private payrolls rose by 127,000. The unemployment rate held at a low 4.1 percent. The labor-force participation rate rose to 61.6 percent.
That is not a recession report. It is not a stagflation report. It is not a report that justifies another Federal Reserve rate hike.
[Canada, not so much. They’ve lost over 40,000 jobs. Tariffs, tax cuts, reshoring, and deregulation are working. Alexander Hamilton would be pleased. The City of London, not so much.]

I wonder how many in the colonised victim-industry will embrace the words of the Maori queen to stop blaming the Government and history for their present condition and to forge their own future?

“I will not allow the circumstances into which I was born to determine the limits of my life. I will learn. I will work. I will lead. I will build. And I will leave something stronger for those who come after me.

        Flossie: I always have a bit of a chuckle when I read about some person being “the wrong sort of Maori”. IMO this arises from the silly idea that “a Maori” can have only the tiniest amount of Maori blood, and be naturally blonde and blue eyed.
        
        I’m sure some of the radicals regret their claims when they hear such “Maori” – like David Seymour – expressing their views. I have never spoken to Seymour about it, but I very much doubt he regards himself as “Maori” except so far as it is politically useful. I stand to be corrected on that.

‘Despite a history of burglary and theft offending, Kane Ranui was on the up after meeting his wife and having four children.
After his family faced financial hardship in 2024, the 36-year-old then manfully took it into his own hands to keep them afloat.
The then-branch manager for a Wānaka scaffolding company stole scaffolding and moved it to an empty lot.
He then sold it to a Cromwell building company on three occasions for $45,500, which he pocketed, ending six years of non-offending.
Judge Smith told Ranui he had an “appalling history”.

  And reading the ODT report, a Mr. Stewart of a Cromwell building company paid $45.000 for it. Thought it was legitimate, but I bet no GST invoice accompanied the sale which suggests maybe something dodgy.

Interesting, but also unsurprising story here:

  The mid-terms are going to be fascinating.
  
  The unprecedented surge of redistricting provides a pretty clear indication of how the GOP think they will perform.
  
  Even with the net +10 the GOP have gained through redistricting, it could be close and Trump’s strategy appears to be making it all about him.
  
  https://ballotpedia.org/Redistricting_ahead_of_the_2026_elections
  
  Given his historic unpopularity, it is a risky strategy but he has his scapegoats all lined up with losing candidates taking the blame.
  
  The incumbents get blamed because they didn’t action Trumps agenda hard enough.
  
  I don’t know how Trump will blame the candidates he endorsed when they lose, such as Paxton, but I’m confident he will find a way….or blame election fraud.
  
  Of course the candidates who won their primary without his endorsement but lose at the election, will have lost because he didn’t endorse them.
  
  At least there is no talk of a “red wave” like there was in the lead up to the 2022 mid-terms. 2022 was a case of GOP candidates requiring a Trump endorsement to win their primary but that endorsement counted against them at the election.
  
  I believe Democrats are less likely to win the Senate.
  
  That is assuming of course that it turns out to be a free & fair election which is not a given when you factor in the various legal attempts to wrest control of the election away from the individual states.
  
  Threats of military on the streets is quite chilling but if you’re prepared to use violence to stop an election being certified, I guess there are no limits.

  mike, other than taking into account the mid terms is that a Middle East video, or perhaps the Dearborn home of Nazi sympathiser Henry Ford?

I see the Greens are trotting out the usual line of Supermarkets making $1000000 of “Extra” profit per day, and I would very much like to see the media ask the Greens what constitutes “Extra Profit”

For context, Woolworths and Foodstuffs operate, between them, (According to a quick google search) 685 outlets in NZ.

Assuming Trading hours of 14 hours per day, This gives you a so called “Extra Profit” of a whopping $104 per hour per outlet.

$104.

Yet the greens would have you believe that these outlets are ripping us off.

I am sick and tired of the Media not fact checking these stupid policies.

Re the international rugby:
Are international rugby players routinely drug tested for, say, steroid use?
Before a big game……

  Apparently steroid use is a problem in South African rugby at schoolboy level

  I’m guessing it’s not just South Africa and not just rugby union

I see the Greens are at it again on the need to provide school lunches.

What part of them doesn’t understand that kids can have a porridge breakfast ( with water of necessary) for 16 cents and it only takes a couple of minutes. And of course a sandwich and apple for lunch. That’s not going to break the bank.

Why can’t they have a go at poor parenting?

Say goodbye to billions of public funds and tens if not hundreds of millions of losses annually.

I see the watermelons are at their economically illiterate best. They want to nationalise supermarkets.

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/nz-herald-live-green-party-food-and-groceries-policy-announcement/NSNYBY5H5DPEJ3QP5FM656AX7Y/

Nationalising supermarkets to purportedly save $1.35 per person per week as opposed to the $15 per person per week from the increase in civil servants we were gifted by Empress Ardern and her loyal subjects.

Can you imagine the cluster f$$k a government ran supermarket chain would be? Costs would go through the roof. Marxism at its best.

We certainly pay a cartel premium – so regulate – but if they truly cared about costs for the public they would stop the enormous government waste. The latter $ swamp the former.

Comrades I hope you are excited about the Greens policy to nationalise supermarkets for the greater good. Seriously these people are pathetic, who votes for them??? They are an embarrassment to our democracy as is anyone who supports them.

According to poidata.io, there are 788 full service supermarkets in New Zealand. The Greens want to purchase 120 of them, for 1.3 Billion. So the total value of supermarkets in New Zealand must be around 8.5 Billion.

But the Greens want to spend 2.8 Billion. 2.8 Billion, of our money, to purchase 15% of the market.

So to address a problem of “excess profits”, the Greens want to spend 33% of the value of the supermarkets to get 15% of the market share.

Anyone else see a problem here?

    A bigger question, Maggy, (and would be fascinating to see the green leaders answers)….
    Interviewer…”would you prosecute shoplifters”
    Answer….
    Well, if they say no, then it’s a free for all!
    If they say yes, then they are hypocritical.
    No government should own supermarkets, any losses are on the taxpayer (theft, no one shopping there, wages/costs outstrip any profits)
    It’s a terrible idea, but once again the headlines (and MSM) will make it sound the best thing ever for shoppers.

  The Greens seem to be copying the Marxist mayor of New York. Francis Merton pointed out for NY, the Mayor could lower food prices just by allowing Walmart in.

Amongst the junk I read on the internet is an American doctor Robert W. Malone. He writes that about 14% of the population are living with a mental disorder.
That seemed unreal to me, then I read the recent polling figures for the Green Party and they are about 14%.
So, I grabbed a glass of claret and thought;
“that quack might be onto something”

I sometimes wonder why my deeply principled, socially caring, committed Green Party voting neighbors only ever do their grocery shopping at Moore Wilson in Wellington. Even New World is beneath them.

I’m in the a Netherlands for a wedding.

Petrol is €2.40 a litre. Look at the currency. Euro. That’s about nzd 4.80 a litre. And we’re complaining…

I have a relative who lives in a heritage listed house. That’s falling into disrepair because of the prescriptive rules around what they can do. They can’t even put in double glazing.
I have had several conversations with people just completely over that taxation in the Netherlands. They literally tax everything that moves.

Their housing costs are out of control. I was in Arnhem couple days ago, one of the river cruise boats was used to house refugees. Because there is a shortage of social housing. And those refugees are getting priority for that housing over Dutch people who have been waiting for years. Discontent is brewing.

A relative has bought a house in Italy. If it weren’t for his parents still being alive he would move there permanently because of the taxes.

Very, very interesting to put alongside my views of conditions back in nz

EU founders Spaak, Schuman, Monnet were CIA stooges. The US mission was to put the Europeans on a short leash, in thrall to the US empire. We are in the Trumpian end phase now. EU is being flushed away.
