So, Winston Peters has legitimised any casual racist and xenophobe in NZ who likes to shout at anyone looking foreign ‘go back to your own country’. If it’s good enough for the former Deputy PM and current foreign minister to be such a cunt, why would it not be ok for anyone to abuse foreigners?

You know, I’m starting to think that maybe, just maybe, the orange shit gibbon’s idea to go to war against Iran was possibly a really fucking stupid idea which he should be held personally accountable for, and sent to prison for the rest of his life, in the pedophile wing.

Hannity’s exhibition of obsequiousness to Trump at Graham’s funeral has to go down in history as the most extraordinarily pathetic display of subservience by anyone to another human being on live television in the history of the world.

The tiny number of actual communists in the USA must be surprised and delighted to learn how powerful their movement has become in recent weeks, without them doing anything…

No person, living or dead, has ever done more to tarnish and sully the international reputation of the United States than Donald J Trump. Every single country on planet earth, now knows the USA is at best, unreliable and untrustworthy and at worst, a hostile predator.

Soooo, what we have learned recently, is that the USA has the ‘greatest military on earth’, until someone starts shooting back with proper missiles.

It’s kind of hard to come to any other conclusion that the US Military would have shot its load by now in a proper shooting war with China. Given they can’t even maintain an effective barrage on a country with limited ability to shoot back.

The vast majority of people who vote, don’t believe climate change is a thing. In my day job, I meet a lot of people. Not one of them thinks climate change stories by the media or government are real or true. Not one person I speak to. Yet the weather is a constant conversation piece.

I lived in the UK for 22 years. Every Sunday I used spend about an hour ironing my freshly laundered shirts, jackets and trousers. I arrived home in New Zealand in 2013. I haven’t ironed a single item of clothing since then despite washing my clothes just as frequently.

How is it in the Commonwealth Games, the British countries compete individually as England, Scotland and Wales, but in the Olympics, they’re allowed to collaborate to compete as Great Britain? Seems like fucking cheating by the British Empire to me.

You know how we all have a thing we’re shit at? I literally can’t listen to anything from anyone I’m not engaged with. My ears will close and you might as well shout into the void. I won’t hear you. My wife can’t close a lid on anything. My shortcoming is probably more significant.

We’ve arrived at a place in history where simply describing any member of regime of the President of the United States of America, sounds like you are insulting them.

The USA as the preeminent world power, has far, far too many stupid people in charge of everything. By far, the greatest threat to everyone on planet earth, is the United States of America.

I’d always fancied a trip to Argentina, but after their football and rugby players cuntish behaviour in the last two games they lost against Spain and England. I’d expect that’s a national characteristic. So I’ll give Argentina a miss I reckon.

So, the brutal Saudi regime can have nuclear stuff but Iran can’t? Remind me how many Saudi’s were on the 9/11 planes and how many Iranians?

Like everyone, I’m surprised to learn that Stuart Nash, thrown out of parliament and several jobs for being a sexist, misogynist cunt, is still a sexist, misogynist cunt, despite being embraced by NZ First.
