We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.

Aotearoa New Zealand.
Require all of them to liquidate their assets before they can be elected. No blind trusts and all that BS.
Ass to that, any workforce policy will apply to them too. Annual leave limited to 20 days, sick leave limited to 10 days, Kiwisaver employer contributions limited to 3%.

But the crimes they committed was less severe, therefore can be considered a success according to the minister.

Commercial? What, he had a business credit account with a girl he raped?

I support this, even though I'm a Greens voter, because the left need to join forces to get rid of the worst govt Aotearoa had.
There is a lot of myths to kill off, there will be a lot of scaremongering. I think we all need to join forces to combat this and give a left govt a chance.

I have already started voting with my purse and stopped buying these brands.

As far as I know, this is already used and it can save time BUT (and this is a huge BUT) a human still goes through the notes to make sure no mistakes were made, add info etc.
I'm not saying a blanket no but I would like to see the safeguards in place.

This is magnificent!
Need to show this to the kid who's looking to buy a house now. He might be tempted to move and renovate George Clarke's Amazing Spaces style 😉

It's getting to a point where I think the only way to deliver the message is for all public sector employees to just walk off their jobs.

I suggest they cancel it all. Get Nicola Willis to send a text message informing the projects are canceled and explain to the public, in her highly condescending tone, that a Ferrari road isn't the only option, we can get a 2nd hand Corolla one (not that gave an Ferrari level roads anyway.)

I'm just over sending emails to the Muppet show that is our govt, emails they mostly ignore and send no reply.
This needs to be published as a letter from the public on Stuff. Would there be a journalist who will pick it up?

And, if you require every new build, residential or commercial, to have solar, it's a win-win-win.

To think that for that money, we could have had two future proofed ferries, first arriving pretty soon, and a future proofed port side.
Muppets, the lot of them.

It has changed! There are a few buildings that are now bordered because the owner doesn't want to repair & the council is too weak to do anything about it.

I have a simple solution. Don't visit the mall when these displays are up. Take the kid to the beach or to the park or stay home and read a book together.
