Adolescence. Thank you Thatcher. The consequences of your policies and their subsequent iterations in the hand of politicians of all colours are coming home to roost in this series. The schools, police, social services, families etc are all starved of money and look at the results. #Adolescence

Oh my goodness! Where does this old fool get it from? Probably from his embarrassment at being part of the most dismal and destructive governments NZ has endured for years. Like dog racing, time to call it a day Winston. Just go away. #NZPol www.1news.co.nz/2025/03/23/n...

#NZPol Luzon’s glitzy event is actually the last thing we need. Just showcasing more opportunities for the rich to get richer & the other 95% get poorer. Inequality is the real problem and until we reverse the disastrous flow of our money to the rich we are doomed. www.1news.co.nz/2025/03/15/a...

This is the result when you get the “businessmen” of the coalition running things. Time for Luzon and his useless sidekick Seymour to go back to the business world where failure is the accepted norm and leave it to people who know how to do things without failing. www.1news.co.nz/2025/03/14/s...

Anyone know if Air New Zealand are going out of business? They keep on cutting flights - London, Seoul, Adelaide etc. Also the head boy has resigned. Rat deserting a sinking ship? #Airnz

Perhaps it is time to reprise Gary Cooper and Madeleine Carroll and the rest of the Mounties to repel the threat from the south. Failing that they could blast out the greatest hits of Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy from loud speakers north of the 49th to drive the Yanks even more insane!

Mr Trudeau - just turn off the electricity and stop the oil then stand on your side of the St Lawrence flicking "V"s at the Yanks.

I trust the whole of the non USA world will put a very large tariff on one very abundant US commodity - STUPIDITY.

Have just heard that Simeon Browne closed down a plan to create a cycle network in our town. Recently there has been one near fatal accident involving a cyclist and there are near missed every day. Thank you Simeon. I hope you can sleep at night. #NZPol

So Mr Luxom wants to sell off all the nations silver. Why? Well it will not be for the benefit of the majority. It will be for the benefit of his craved for overseas investors who will make huge profits and run down our facilities. Just look at what happened to water in the UK. #NZPol

“Farms under investigation after sheep abuse claims” Headline on TVNZ News. Oh dear! Well some of those farms are very remote. Tongue firmly in cheek!
