“Peters' comments drew the attention of international media when China's Embassy in New Zealand condemned them and indicated they were not conducive to the two countries' trade relationship”. If our whim PM doesn’t sack Peters then China will respond with various trade sanctions, guaranteed🤔

Humanitarian, I think.. concerned, bewildered, but hopeful. Retired builder, golfer,
Willis has been on the back foot ever since she borrowed 12 billion to fund tax cuts. Reduced tax revenue in a stagnant economy brought about by continued austerity. All concealed by regular lies and deception. How do you sleep at night… Withering Willis.
Luxon, can you explain why this fees programme has been “quite a failure” and why it hasn’t met its objectives? Something really informative would be useful instead of this wishy washy waffle of yours🤔Do you actually know🤔 share.google/OlSUJyyIBY78...
Fees-free university scheme was 'quite a failure', Luxon says
The fees-free university scheme did not achieve any of its goals, the Prime Minister says, and it is better to direct funding elsewhere. The scheme...

Great Leader is a mystery… completely comfortable with our fuel supply on one hand and unaware of shipment delays ( that the Herald knew about) on the other hand. Supposedly on the phone every day with suppliers, what the fuck do they talk about if a shipment delay wasn’t mentioned. Crap artist ffs
This is Luxon banging on again. The world experienced higher inflation, higher interest rates and higher debt. The cost of saving thousands of lives! The world applauded AoNZ’s response but it wasn’t perfect! A prolonged recession sits clearly at the feet of of this govt & recovery was a myth,Luxon
Only gross profiteering among fuel companies would structure pricing this way! Interestingly that fuel always takes ages to reduce in price, so there reasoning is flawed. When questioned, industry spokesman really struggle to give a straight answer… Going fully EV and solar shortly… fuck em
I’m sure AoNZ will receive an apology from Mark Carney over is faux pas in Australia, fancy suggesting Aussie were the 1st to give women the vote🙄 Interesting enough this govt would prefer to remove the right. Luxon ,Seymour and co would prefer only white landowners should vote…prove me wrong😆
When prime minister Luxon uses his position to create pecuniary advantage for himself… bright lines test & interest rebates for landlords nothing happens🤔 Apparently lining your own pockets is acceptable if you make the rules. Corruption in plain sight🤬
Why do we need to know🤔 A quote from Eddie Izzard comes to mind when he was talking about Ava Braun and Hitler… “ in a ditch covered in petrol” It was the 1st thing that came to mind, if I am being truthful 😱
MetService… Brickbat for you These tradies forecasts are bloody joke You are just taking the piss! “Stand up those frames and fire up the barbie” Do you actually thing a tradie looks at these forecast before doing any work! My advice to MetService Pull ya head in🤬 It’s just mockery, ya 🤡’s
This was National’s pre election blurb… Doesn’t mention austerity, increased unemployment, business insolvency, health care disaster, public service pain, migration loss, hammering the vulnerable, kissing tRump’s butt, ignoring climate change and more. It was never about the people… was it Luxon!
Recently a golf club in Rotorua was criticised for lighting a fire that burn green waste in an open fire season. Below apparently are the rules or the game🤔 Has there ever been a fire’s smoke that has remained in the property🤔 Offensive and objectionable smoke..so subjective and unworkable🤦
Waka Kotahi now have a disclaimer out for license holders over 65, miss information! A couple of Aussie sites have creating this. Click Bait.
For all you oldies out there, this site along with Huey.com are all horse shit. There is a driver’s license post that is all crap as well. Click bait! Even if it has NZ Govt on the site, be wary🤔 After all, this govt are all crap anyway🤦 Best of luck then🤣
Did you become PM just to increase your wealth, implement targeted changes in tax deductions and bright lines rules to benefit personally… your fore fathers would be horrified… just like the rest of us. You make me 🤮 it’s called using your position for a pecuniary advantage, illegal me thinks, ffs!!
This is some of the advice you receive when you ask AI how to improve the economy and it’s certainly not what our govt are doing. 😱 No mention of rewarding financial supporters with favourable contracts and appointments or tax breaks for selected sectors that coincide with MP’s business activities!!
Winston waffling again.. Particularly interested in the last paragraph referring to a pragmatic approach to maintaining services during an upgrade. Result, bin the Awatere and suspend rail freight for 4 years plus! Great start!! $13.4 mill spent and… just another gravy “train”
The height of incompetence and vested interest! Peters & Willis argue 3-4bill too much for major infrastructure investment to link our 2 islands. Brown was happy to spend 1 billion on Northland roads, a coalition deal with Peters🤔 No bloody ferries ordered yet, 4+ yrs waiting! & 2yrs to get here!
The ramifications of this decision are huge… I would say brought about by a cheap skate upgrade Willis/Peters option!! No rail enabled ferry activity for 4 years… 1 less ferry for 4 years! Boy oh boy Duncan Roy, having a few sleepless nights I would imagine🙆♂️ www.odt.co.nz/news/nationa...
Interislander to retire: Job cuts, travel disruptions expected

Wandered into Aussie building merchants with 2 n’s in their name here in AoNZ to buy dish washing tablets… Staggered at the blatant deception. Pack of 60, $20 Same product in slightly different packet referred as bulk value pack, 90 for $39.99 The same bullshit you see at Supermarkets, bastards!
A bit of light reading tonight… I get a very strong impression the NACT1 are currently breaching at least 7 of the 13 basis human rights in this country Certainly not government by the people for the people is it!! 1 example, political opinion… penalising the left is staggeringly obvious $$$
This article appears to contradict todays Stuff article from Glenn McConnell on MP’s salaries 🤔🤔😵💫https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/pay-day-for-mps-pm-christopher-luxon-to-get-50k-more-in-rolling-pay-rises-for-mps-under-remuneration-authority-decision/T7GYL7JH5ZHMTNHT6LJ5ZQTILM/
Pay day for MPs: $50k in rolling salary hikes for Luxon by 2026
The Prime Minister says he does not need the increase and will donate it to charity.

Smoke and mirrors… Peters says 2 billion taxpayer $’s will be saved with his plan! He has already stated that Hyundia break fees aren’t in his budget! & any previous money spent by Kiwirail! Peter’s your deluding yourself! www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/ports-rel...
Ports ‘reluctant’ to work with KiwiRail after mega-ferry fallout
It was hoped a new company would provide a pathway for a trusted approach to negotiations.

Ive have wondered for a while over landlord interest tax deductibility🤔 Table mortgage structure, always heavily weighted interest component at early stages on repayments. Say $2000 a month in repayments, of that, $1800 is interest… Tax benefits on the $1800 would be huge, or am I imagining this
So, 18 - 20 billion offered in pre election bribes, 15 months later govt short 18-20 billion 🤔🙆♂️🤦 amateur accounting… So, govt continue cutting the guts out of spending, called austerity and during a recession 😵💫 Public health is hammered, 100’s will die… is that premeditated murder🤔 Staggering😡🤬🤯
To the Rotorua Police, this intersection has been used as a burnout pad for months, serious amount of rubber laid down and tire remains over the road last time I drive past 25/01/2025!! Get off your astonishingly inept backsides and sort it out before some unsuspecting motorists dies 🤬
Apparently, if can arrive at work quicker that’s economic growth😵💫 That’s up there with chocolate and paperback prices at airports and allowing tourists to work remotely while in NZ. Can’t wait for upcoming initiatives😆
Horror story for IRD / Govt… prior provisional tax payments for 24/25 year for self employed significantly higher than actual income in many cases. That converts to tax refunds in the following year. Source, playing golf with an accountant😆 1 of the flow on effects from tackling inflation!😬
Wet day activity yesterday… I busted a hard level sudoku in 12 mins & 10 sec!! A real sense of achievement 😵💫 I’ve always felt that if your paperback and chocolate shopping at the airport are too expensive… don’t bloody well buy them🙆♂️ Supermarkets , political donations, trolleys & police…. “1984”
