Prepared to somewhat agree with your thoughts re the word rasict.. I think ignorant is probably a better word to use. Anyway you guys, I'm not going to get anywhere in this forum with most of you. 

Fact is, country is fucked.. and will be until our dying days, billions will continue to be spent and wasted in all sorts of ways regardless of any policies by the government of the day. And honest hardworking tax payers money will always get poured towards 'undesirables' of any description whether its via treaty settlements or otherwise.

FYI.. I consider myself politically neutral..

I suspect most of the 👎 squad in here are National/Righties... the current PM collected 50K a year to live in his own mortgage free home because he was 'entitled' to it. 

It's 'only' 50k, but I personally find it to be the most egregious thing a PM has done in my living memory, I dislike the guy very much and Winston, well he is Trumpesque... so yeh, I seem to be leaning left atm.. and this is certainly not the place for lefties to get the thumbs up.. lol. Anyway I'm out.. 👋 go well.

That Girl, you are obviously associated with Bloke?

This is a forum to enable people to post their thoughts!

There is a problem at the moment with many New Zealand citizens in that they believed every word and action that Labour Losers enforced on them!

I have realised just how easily led so many people are and need to be controlled unfortunately.

The other thing is that the country has never been so divided and this has been caused by the looney left ideas, and these actions by Ardern and Robertson have set the country back decades.

There is this element of discontent from the people who are not as well off financially as others and they do not think this is fair!!!

So they want the people who are more financially better off to give them their wealth!

Well there is a reason that most people who are financially well off, and that is that they deserve to be, they work harder, make better choices and dont continually moan about how unfair everything is!!!

To be fair Ardern and her cohort Labour loonies policies and actions actually made the wealthy better off and the ones who are not so wealthy, poorer by their actions!!!

The 'gifts' you are referring to are treaty settlements... for stolen/confiscated land (breaches of the treaty). And the settlement amounts are a tiny fraction of the commercial value of the stolen land.

Hardly "stolen" given the Maori supposedly didn't have a concept of land ownership.

That said if you sold your yearling for what you thought it was worth you can't go back and ask for more when it wins multiple Group Ones!

Anyway the so called compensation hasn't changed anything.

So what do you propose instead of throwing money at the problems?  That doesn't work does it?

I could consider myself Brad Pitt but that doesn't make it so. You're not politically neutral at all. You're a leftie through and through. That is not an insult, just the reality. 

I've never considered myself a "rightie"....my parents were blue collar workers so voted for Labour who they believed represented the working man / woman. Prior to 2020, I'd never voted once. I've always been cynical of all political parties. My youngest son was 18 in 2020 and could cast his first vote and did. I voted for the first time motivated mostly by the two important referendums. I felt National were mostly onto things fiscally but was cynical of their "Rock Star Economy" when I was seeing more and more people struggle. I felt bean counters were indifferent to their plight and wasn't a fan of Judith Collins so I put my party vote in for.....Labour.  I'm an idealist and felt Ardern had a social conscience. I'm embarrassed to say that now but authenticity and transparency are important. I did what I thought was right at the time. 

You describe the country as being "fuked" and you're right. Governments have made a pigs ear of things but what Labour did was obscene in so many areas and a new low. They did one thing very successfully via their agenda. They divided our beautiful country.

Virtually every appointment made was virtue signaling. 

The relentless prioritizing of everything Maori has been a train wreck for NZ. It's also created a strong sense of entitlement for many Maori that if they play their cards right and say the right thing, more lollies will come their way. Do you think that's been happening?

Perhaps in an echo chamber of socialists their agenda was a sound plan but in reality it was divisive carnage. Race relations need to be handled with care and respect for all parties. Labour skipped right over that all important step. 

Everyone in my world supported the pro-equity journey especially in health. Now six + years later you'd have more success finding rocking horse poo than finding anyone in my circle that support anything associated with Labour. The way it's been implemented was divisive, hugely expensive and like virtually everything Labour did, ineffective. Even many of the people they had buy-in with have since gone cold. Many that don't or can't see that have not been at the coal face and experienced the reality day in day out.

Labour's plan to drop the prison population by 30% sounded good to them but it's been a racist catastrophe that has changed NZ permanently. That 30% was intended to be mostly the poor old Maori. How do you suddenly keep 3000 Maori offenders out of prison? We are talking about serious offenders and that should never be overlooked. You do it by downgrading their serious offending so they qualify for home detention and you also have the courts gifting out sentence reductions until home detention comes into view. 

I have a friend in Auckland who was robbed in 2021 by several Maori offenders. The level of "terror" with the incident traumatized his staff. Several left soon after. Their only comfort was the offenders being caught two days later.......only to have their serious charges downgraded to keep the offenders out of prison. Total insult to my friend and to his staff........but the message sent and received to all other similar offenders including gangs was there is a free pass waiting for them.

Ginny Anderson was both Police Minister and Minister of Justice. She stated Prison is no place for Maori. Really? That statement implies that Prison is an ok place for Non Maori. It also highlights more of Labour's ideology that could only ever work in an echo chamber. End result now for many New Zealanders is they believe their country is less safe. Thanks for nothing Labour.

Poto Williams was an abomination as a Police Minister and our worst ever in that important role. She sat on her hands while ram-raids got into full swing. Ardern farcically stated she still had full confidence in Williams. Nek minute when it became even more embarrassing to Ardern she sent Williams packing. She stated Williams had lost her focus. Beep! wrong! How does a Police Minister lose focus during a diabolical crime wave? They don't. Williams never had any focus as she was totally unsuitable for the position from day one. She is what happens when you appoint someone because they are both female and Maori. Virtue signaling failure. 

Justice Minister Kiri Allan is Maori, female and lesbian. Three virtue signaling boxes ticked. How did that work out?  etc etc etc 

New Zealanders have been leaving our beautiful country in record numbers. Why? We have record immigration despite record homelessness. Many of the immigrants Labour signed off on are light years away from being high skilled individuals. ....but they will all need a home, during a housing crisis. 

The way Labour managed the Covid Pandemic was appalling. Started off ok when we didn't know what would / could happen next and then it became an obscene abuse of power. I know of numerous highly skilled nurses that were sacked for refusing the Covid Vaccine. These in some cases were nurses that were involved in previous immunization campaigns and had supported vaccines. 

The extended 2021 lockdown in Auckland in August 2021 where we lived was a complete farce. The implications there were far reaching.

During the 2023 election campaign, Winston Peters made a statement that almost everyone on planet Earth would have previously totally agreed with. He said female toilets and changing rooms need to be a safe place for women and girls. ...Chris Hipkins stated Peters was inciting hatred toward the trans community. That is the same man who only got fired up during the leaders debates when two subjects came up. Prioritizing Maori and LBGT.

If you look at virtually every photo of Hipkins during the 2023 election campaign you'll see him virtue signaling. Post election he then farcically states he doesn't know what he could have done differently to win the election. He can't be serious?

One of the unintended consequences of virtually everything Labour did was to push voters elsewhere.....including me. The main reason National , ACT and NZF are now in Government is Labour did such a diabolically bad job. Some of the carnage caused is now set in stone. Our media and many others pointing the finger of blame at the new Government are looking in the wrong area. If Labour had respected the election mandate gifted to them in 2020, they'd still be in office.

National, ACT and NZF were also given an election mandate. Put right what Labour got so badly wrong. 

My support for National is not unconditional but they are light years a better option at this time than Labour. I'm pleased they are addressing tenancy laws for landlords that were so heavily titled toward tenants, even diabolically bad tenants. I'm not impressed with the Police pay offer especially coming off the back of landlords being looked after so promptly. That's as tone deaf as it gets. 

I have trust issues with Luxon. He has a habit of either not answering questions or giving the same answer for different questions. His claiming of 50k as a housing subsidy for a home he owns highlights two things. One is a broken system open to rorting and two, how politicians enjoy feathering their own nest via the tax payer at the very time they are telling everyone else the country needs them to tighten their belts. Bill English when Minister of Finance did exactly the same thing. John Key pulled him up saying it wasn't a good look. In reality, this rort is widespread but it's only the higher profile hypocrites you hear about.  Luxon stated he would return the money he'd claimed for housing SINCE becoming the PM. ....because it had become a distraction. Not because it was so wrong but because it's a distraction. Really? 

I assume he has been claiming that allowance since he became an MP in 2020 and especially so since becoming the leader of the opposition in 2021. Why is he not paying that back or even being asked about it when the circumstances I assume were similar? 

I do however overall feel Luxon has done a good job in very difficult circumstances and has scope to become a very good PM. Hipkins was never going to be a good PM.

Despite reservations I do support the new coalition Government who have enormous carnage to clean up. They are being misrepresented and attacked every step of the way by our inept and totally bias woke media and vested interest groups. My support will drop off if our Police and Primary Health Care professionals are not finally looked after and respected via their salary despite promises to do so. Both groups have already waited far to long. 

Next time you're unhappy about the new Government, look at why they are there.

Relentless, costly and divisive Labour failures.

One's judged by the company one keeps...

The racing industry has to put up with having a freaken lunatic at the helm it seems..

Comparing ANY coalition Government of NZ with Nazi Germany and the holocaust is a fucking disgrace and whichever racing club 'invites' this psycopath to it's next meeting should be pilloried...but let's face it...

..some in the racing industry believe Trump is the saviour of the World...they live amongst us 

Thomas,  Peters didn't compare it to the holocaust at all. Only those that want to believe he said that will think such a statement was made.

He was comparing favouring one race over another as superior to the mindset of the Nazi regime. When you look at what the co leader of the Maori Party stated about Maori DNA,  Peters was 100% correct.

You mentioned Trump.....again

The establishment media have waged a relentless campaign against Trump and his supporters since Trump put his hand up. 

Yes, Trump can put his foot in his mouth at times but he's an apex leader at the very time one is required big time. He's never been credited with all the good he achieved as POTUS.

Now he's been subjected to the most under handed campaign against a political rival I've ever known of in the United States. The D.O.J have been used by the Democrats to eliminate their biggest threat against re-election. If you dive deeper than what CNN and their ilk present as news you will see a completely different picture. 

Do you honestly believe the war in Ukraine would have unfolded had Trump been President? 

Biden is much more than a bare faced liar, a man that can't string a sentence together or walk 30 feet without tripping over or looking completely lost. He and his son Hunter have received huge payments from certain countries for complicity. That's a fact. Had that been Trump it would be leading every news bulletin until Jesus reappeared. ....yet the establishment media turn a blind eye to it due in no small part to their hatred of Trump. It is them dividing the country, not Trump. 

It is Biden, Harris, Obama, the Democrats and their media bosom buddies that are the threat against democracy and to world conflict ....not Trump. 

Unfortunately, the left can't or won't see what is not so well hidden in clear view. 

It's become a way for them to connect with other lefties. Can you imagine what would unfold if they dared to suggest Trump is not the monster he is relentlessly portrayed as to their fellow lefties? They'd lose their mind. It's far safer and expedient to just go along with the narrative.

Peters spoke to the Herald

"Asked whether it was appropriate to draw a comparison to the Holocaust, he said the Holocaust had stemmed from similar thinking and attacked the media for not calling out Waititi’s comments last year."

So he did...

Comparing the fucking Nazi's blonde hair blue eyed shangri f in la..to a minor Political party in NZ who misguidedly thought Maori DNA was superior..."on the sporting" field...

...is typical of Peter's mindless, thoughtless rhetoric designed to divide and rule

Affirmative action in our Housing policy of the 60-80's spectacularly lifted another race out of abject poverty...

WTF is wrong with destroying generational poverty caused by European banks denying Maori home loans before the 1960's?

This is what Winston Peters said in his original speech:

“It was not just ideological theory, it was race-based theory.  Where some people’s DNA made them, sadly, according to these people, and condoned by their cultural fellow travellers, their DNA made them somehow better than others. 
I’ve seen that sort of philosophy before, I saw it in Nazi Germany, we all did.  We have seen it elsewhere in the world in the horrors of history, but right here in our country tolerated by the very people whose job is to keep the system honest.”

This is hilariously hypocritical claptrap...

Peters WANTS to control the narrative in the media ffs..

For you ignorant old fools...this DNA b/s started with a very minor member of the Maori Party who suggested Maori had "superior sporting DNA"...which is probably true when combined with Polynesians to be fair...just like a Kenyan athlete or African Americans with recognised fast twitch muscle fibres...

Nutbar Waititi seized on this ...dropped the "SPORTING'...inserted it on his website...then taken down after the party realised what a bunch of shit it was...

Peters in his drunken stupor ..went off his script... inserted "Nazis" at the last minute to attract World attention...which it did

So if people don't share your take on a topic they are ignorant old fools? 

The Maori Party is a racist Political Party that have successfully encouraged and harnessed divisive contempt for the bad white man to feather their own nest. Waititi himself is the epitome of a racist. Virtually everything he says and does is a display of contempt for the Colonial invaders, even down to his attire. Our alleged media won't tackle his racist views due to their agenda and lack of backbone.

Waititi again expressed his racist views when discussing Maori DNA allegedly being superior to non Maori. Forget Kenyan runners etc. Most knew exactly what he meant. It was very deliberate and safe in the knowledge he'd be gifted another free pass while his supporters rubbed their hands and applauded. That was entirely consistent with what he's about and makes a good living out of. Some will look for any tenuis justification to minimize what he stated and the implications. Many however won't, including Peters who has a backbone.

The Nazi regime were all about the superiority of one race over another so Peters comparison may be confronting for some, but is both appropriate and correct.

If you want to see hypocrisy at work just compare the media / left wing reaction to Waititi's racist and false claim which was remarkably and predictably, yet another free pass. Then line up the faux reaction to Peters statement about alleged racial superiority from past to present. Out come the perpetually offended with their pitchforks. Pathetic.

Yes, I am taking much pleasure in watching Newshub TV3 squirming in their death throws, plenty of jobs at PaknSave boys and girls, or mowing lawns with the gormless Paddy bug eyed Gower. These same lying overpaid parasites had nothing to say about the thousands of workers who lost their jobs and careers for refusing to take the poison jabs. Mongrels also maligned and lied about the peaceful protest at Parliament. TV1 and Stuff next. Bring it on.

Sterilisation would be my first step.  I will never be convinced these types should be entitled to breed.

 

What I'd put a stop to is the state having to pay for their highly successful breeding program. They are breeding new gang members and in big numbers and not having to pay a razoo to do so. Mug tax payers pick up that tab. Better add a Whare to that requirement also. It gets a bit boring for the mums having to raise another crop in a Motel year after year
