Who cut the $1000 Kickstarter? National
Who reduced the minimum contribution to 3%? National
Who reduced the member tax credit from $1040 to $521? National
Who then reduced the same member tax credit from $521 to $260.72? National.

Don't believe National on Kiwisaver.

Same here.
Surprised by the similarity between some of the messages we've had here and in the US? You're not alone.

Andrew Tate and his brother are appearing in court tomorrow in Romania.

If you want them both to be locked up, like.
If you really want them to be locked up, RT.

Weekend roadie to Timaru and back, taking my ‘64 Fiat 500 to a car show. 2 observations: the highways are getting pounded to shit, and it ain’t by vehicles under 3.5 tonnes; Whittakers Dark Ghana is $3.01 dearer in Hampden, than Woolworth’s Balclutha. Things need to change.

Yep, happening around the world.
Shitler is systematically disabling and dismantling the American Constitution, democratic structures, and processes. This is a war on Freedom, Liberty, and Democracy.

We have one in this country.
Kakocracy, Cacocacy means “government by the worst people” or “rule by the incompetent”. It is derived from the Greek words kakos (bad) & kratos (power, rule). Cacocracy is a form of government that is characterized by:

👉corruption
👉nepotism
👉incompetence
👉inefficiency
👉injustice
👉tyranny

or
Mum
(and often with a 'tone')
Shorthand for our names are
TK: me - my nickname for Tania Kelly
MK: Vet Girl: the two capitals in her first name
PR: hubby: initials
BR: the potiki: initials
The potiki calls her father 'peepo'; he calls her 'oobers'; calls MK, Mackdo or Mackdoodlemapoodle
I use the names (tho often to wrong kid)
