Well no, to be fair it shrunk a bit, it didn't burst.
The 15 to 25 chums probably didn't do their homework & piled on in there in a great panic before it was 50k a HA, I mean dairy farmers aren't usually the sharpest tools in the shed.
If they hang in there they will eventually break even at worst.
Selling in a downturn is the behaviour of the desperate or easily spooked.
A lot of farmers brought at near 100% do the maths using the equity thye had in other farms the secnd farm along with the first is worth significantly less now so they owe more than 100% of its worth.
The bubble most certainly burst, the only reason more here were not wond up is the banks couldn't find a buyer in such a depressed market.
You need to remember these farms have also been running at a loss for likely 6 of the last 8 years.
There is a lot of variability in the intelligence levels of any industry, But you need to consider in boom times you have banks tripping over themselves to lend money to farmers.
Selling isn't necessary a desperation thing but you need to consider the average age of farm owners is likely near the Pension limits.

You can use the system where they drill holes variously in the internal or external walls & pour in polystyrene beads.
This system is a little dangerous as they can get into the flush boxes & cause fire if they aren't sealed up prior to installation.
Correct, there are ways of doing the walls, but this isn't compulsory.

So why did national have to borrow all that money without doing that then?
200 million for a gun buy back is a one off cost to make NZ safer for ever, its only a few john key flag referendums.
the one terrorist attack cost will likely be higher than 200 million.

Seriously ineptitude the best you have is not building enough of what national never done.
Why is is you never mention the ineptitude of the previous goverment borrowing money for the last 9 years previous that needs to be paid pack with interest.
If you want to discuss ineptitude look to the leader of the oposition that less than 1 in ten see as being a possible PM.
This thread is one big labour moan from group of National voters who actually think their views form some majority.
The gun loaw changes were 100% supported by national as well as the vast majority of kiwis in case you never noticed.

Must seem that way from a labour supporter's point of view. In fact surveys have shown most social media in NZ leans well left, it's no different here. The moderate right are probably all too busy with the sort of social media that arrives across the club bar.
And if there's been a fair bit of criticism of labour's performance here recently then it's not difficult to understand why, even for someone who supported their claimed goals. Deflecting perfectly valid criticism of their failure to meet their own standards with "but national" isn't rational, it's a pointless and transparent knee-jerk reaction from a spectacularly one eyed partisan.

Looks like people are mistaking me linking news about the govts progress & lack of it for being all dressed in blue.
Some red herring posted by Husa to take the scrutiny off this broken promise doesn't distract me.
Mark my words, if the average voter isint hoodwinked next election into believing that Jacinda's policy's are somehow different to Andrew Little's ones, & National get another crack at it I'll be taking my responsibility of having a bit of extra time on my hands to point out the govts shortfalls & bullshit to our dear friends that are busy working too hard to support the country to notice.
I will find every news article that suggests they ether lying, breaking promises, or simply too stupid to organise some houses built & share them so nobody misses out.
I can't stand a bullshitter, weather it's an individual, or a government & I will be pointing it out regardless of their skivvy colour, in fact I will be more on to the other guys, because I expected no better from these ones.
Does anyone remember "no new taxes"? Nobody said anything about doubling the old ones.

The Gun law changes were backed by all parties other than one dipshit out of 120 odd Mp's
The gun law changes were also backed or thought of as not going far enough by 80% of Kiwis.

In point of fact, I'm doing better under this govt than under the last. Supplementary power subsidy over winter, local fuel supplier giving a 15c/l discount for gold card holders.
I've lived through more nat governments than most of you. Shook Mrs Holyoake's hand, met Kirk and Lange. Worked alongside ex MP's. They all mean well but IMO the nats are hamstrung by their beliefs. The left is where change comes from - and shit yes, we need change.
The major problem now is inequity of wealth. the poor get poorer, the rich get richer. Is this a good thing ?
One thing we're working on at a local level which may yet make policy is a govt overseer for local govt affairs. When your local council lose in court but won't perform the required work or settlement, it's not currently possible to get enforcement except by going back to court. Where the council's deeper pockets let them take it further. You may win - but you'll be broke. Looking at a tribunal system to level the playing field.

But what I was going on about (and probably the fake leftist news you've swallowed) is Gower making out like Simon bridges is somehow connected to Arps and Generation Identity simply because they two were against the UN migration compact.
On the surface it seems like a totally absurd assertion to make but I guess we will see tonight what proof Winnie has for calling for Simons resignation.
Winston was outright calling for Simon's resignation so he obviously think's he has some connection.
So its either true or Winnie and Gower are leftist propaganda turds. I think its obvious to most whats going to come out tonight.

The last time national was in power they doubled NZ net debt and its Debt vs GDP i dont think NZ can afford another Blue government yet.
You never wanted the houses built and the last lot did nothing about housing and all of a sudden its faux irks you. Get real.
Maybe if you actually held the same scrutiny to all governments, people would consider to be at least a tiny objective and unbiased. But you dont.
What this thread is 4 Right wing eggs continually moaning about nothing, trying to make out its something, while ignoring the fact national will never get in as their leader is useless and National have no friends as they are the smelly kid no one likes.

• Any amendment to the Arms Act (except as regards tariffs for offending) as this
will make no difference whatsoever to the criminal misuse of forearms;
• Any re-classification of semi-automatic rifles and shotguns to an “E”
endorsement as this will make no difference whatsoever to the criminal use of

Well certainly the first 2 are nowhere near an "excuse to not return keep prohibited guns or not change the law". I read them more as "why not try enforcing the laws you've already got before you add a bunch more you won't bother to enforce?"

FFS Jan, are you on KB as husaberg? You can see where it starts, she manages to blame National six times in nearly as many lines, it's the Labour way. Is that some kind of new record? Just own today & stop trying to deflect the responsibility to the govt that the most voters chose last election.
In her defence she was a school teacher until recently, before she decided on a carrier in politics, so it's not like she's hugely talented in that field, much like the rest of the Labour Party.
If you dig into their pasts you would be horrified at the lack of anything they have been doing prior, related to the job in hand.
Around 50% of the cost of fuel is tax, but it's out of govt control.
I look forward to "crucial transport infrastructure projects" that will be of some benefit to me. Maybe GST free scooter tyres.

Ask her where all the current fuel taxes go. Almost all of the many tax increases to fuel were originally ring fenced for transport/roading improvements. Almost all of them are now consigned to the general consolidated fund, available for buying votes.
That tactic is responsible for most new taxes and increases, across most cost centers: new tax justified to fund that sector's particular infrastructure spending requirements, and then quietly diverted to spend on election promises. Which means another tax, to fund that sector's particular infrastructure spending requirements. This time they haven't even rinsed it, it's almost word for word from the last fuel tax increase.

Oh look Nazitional wanted to do the same but whatever
Energy Minister Judith Collins has vowed to “get to the bottom” of rising petrol margins, signalling an announcement of an inquiry could come next week.
As official figures suggest the margins Kiwis are paying to fill up at the pump rose again in 2016, and have doubled over the past decade, the AA claims two price rises in January came despite the price petrol companies pay being flat.
The AA has called for petrol companies to explain what is going on, with areas including Wellington and much of the South Island frequently charging motorists 30c a litre more than towns such as Levin and Masterton, despite being further from where fuel is imported.

And if there's been a fair bit of criticism of labour's performance here recently then it's not difficult to understand why, even for someone who supported their claimed goals. Deflecting perfectly valid criticism of their failure to meet their own standards with "but national" isn't rational, it's a pointless and transparent knee-jerk reaction from a spectacularly one eyed partisan.
Their stated goals were nothing but hot-air and propaganda.
Having a solid, stated, achievable goal* would be one thing, but "end homelessness" "child poverty", etc, etc is non achieveable due to lifestyle choices.
* The stated goals here, are complete pish. Coming up with a number needs to be backed up with quantities of tradespeople and logistics to begin with, then you have the utter ineptitude of local councils fucking up the entire system of approvals. Liarbour screwed this up from the very start, simply because of not living in the real world and breathing the socialist air on planet Loony.

The Greens dont look that far ahead with any of their policies. Its all about the feels for them.
NZ is actually a good country to run electric vehicles in because we have alot of hydro power (once the battery technology develops properly which imo its not there yet). Thats fine for the large urban centres. The total disregard for the rural community in the proposed changes is absurd though. But then the proposed changes were pushed through by one of those dual citizen MP's I was talking about previously. The bitch should never of been an MP in the first place! And a bloody unelected LIST MP at that is the one behind all this total bullshit!!!

I was talking about rego costs I heard they proposed basically taxing anything not electric or deemed acceptable into oblivion or thats in the intent via road users or rego and sales of new vehicles aswell.
Again what you said is just another reason to keep my old vehicles if they are going to tax the vehicles im likely to buy (probably not a brand new AMG admittedly) but thats what I would buy it still adds to the cost even on a second hand vehicle that filters through the system down the years.

The time most electric cars are charging is when people get home from work. That's peak power time, more demand than hydro can supply already, any extra supply is going to be oil or gas generated.
So they're arguably producing more greenhouse gasses than an IC vehicle.

Yep and its still the batteries their creation and their disposal which is the real elephant in the room imo.
All these politicians are kidding themselves if they think these "green" technologies are what they are cracked upto be when even the most basic research shows that its not.

Oh absolutely, I'd be surprised if most chargers didn't have that facility, I'm just not sure if most people would use it.
And then, the more Ecars there are the more demand there is, and that overall % of hydro goes down and the coal/gas generation goes up.
I'll probably buy one eventually, when I can be convinced the batteries last, can be replaced for less than the cost of a new car and don't require disposal to a nuclear storage facility. Y'know: all of the things most environmental lobbyists completely ignore.

In Europe, when the driver gets home and plugs their car into the wall, the Nissan e-vehicles get the power drained from the vehicle battery to support the national grid during the evening. Once it is past midnight the recharging of the car actually begins.

Because 5 people moaning about something not happening yetclearly being attempted, from a party they never voted for, about a plan they never considered necessary,, about a problem the previous government refused to admit the existence of for the last 9 years, is different that 500 plus outright lies. That these so caled angered 5 national voters who claim, "We just dont want to be lied to" hypocritical cretins, Unless you are a National voter of course.
It just goes to show how desperate to stir and grasp at anything the right wing voters have became.
I guess that happens when their party is lead by a buffoon that even 86% of their own voters don't even want a a PM.
FFS More national voters want to see a Labour PM than their own party leader.
Well that's one take on it.

Don't go letting stats get in the way aye
The 1 NEWS Colmar Brunton poll asked, "Do you think the Government should continue with the KiwiBuild scheme?"
Sixty per cent said yes, the Government should keep going, while 34 per cent said no and five per cent didn't have an opinion.
Those who were more likely to oppose KiwiBuild continuing were National supporters, people living in Otago or Southland or those with annual household incomes of more than $150,000.
Worse still, Simon Bridges is the most unpopular leader of National this century with a preferred Prime Minister rating of 4 per cent, meaning approximately 89 per cent of National supporters do not want Bridges as Prime Minister. Meanwhile, National is now seeing its support levels plummet to depths unseen in 15 years.

The Newshub Reid Research Poll pitched Ardern slightly higher for preferred prime minister, at 49 per cent.
That poll also showed just 17.4 per cent of people thought Simon Bridges was performing well as National's leader, while 56 per cent thought he was performing poorly.
Ardern secured her highest approval rating yet, with 72.5 per cent of respondents saying she was performing well as PM. Just 15.6 per cent thought she was performing poorly.
for those that are not so great with maths like Ocean, that's nearly twice as many support it continuing than it stopping.

Ocean doesn't apply "maths" to politicians, dude, only gullible fuckwits desperate to deflect attention from policy outcomes, (which actually are amenable to arithmetic) do that.
Like this kiwibuild shit for example.

Thousands of houses would only be affordable if they built them in the middle of nowhere - but they'd still fail since there isn't enough tradesmen to undertake the task... a fundemental underlying fact that liarbour fails to comprehend.

"Government has retooled the KiwiBuild plan, rebranding the homes as a more boutique item, and scaling down production from 100,000 to what it now calls “somewhat less than that,” or “two hundred.” Under new Housing Minister Megan Woods, the flagging program looks likely to shift from providing 100,000 affordable homes to making the 40 people who currently have one unspeakably rich."

When we already have the laws in place corrections officials just need to enforce them.

Watching the replay of them announcing their plans was head shake material. They can't have done even the most obvious arithmetic. Still they are not alone. Labour in Australia made a similar promise but Jeremy Corbin takes the cake, he promised every homeless person in Biritain a house. And there are a lot of homeless people in Britain.

The homelessness I saw in London in '94 was mindboggling and it has got worse since then, not least due to nine years of Tory "austerity", so yes. A large part of the problem was people heading south looking for work so the homess population was constantly turning over. I think the current buzz word is 'churn'.
In the West End, among the theatres with the big shows, the cafes that cater to the post show crowd were selling potato and gravy for a quid to the homeless during the day.

Some of those are just patently untrue. Spending more time in the country than out of it So who was that......The whole Goverment.........
Hardly an endless list
How does that compare to your own leader there sport Trump does more cock ups in a week than that. Here is a Month.
– June 1, 2017 – At the onset of hurricane season, leadership positions remained vacant for the NOAA and FEMA. These agencies are responsible for monitoring weather patterns incoming for natural disasters and addressing natural disaster recovery, respectively.
– June 2, 2017 – White House lawyers met with the leaders of several federal agencies to order them not to comply with Democrats’ requests for oversight of agency activities. A White House spokesperson said the Trump administration’s policy regarding oversight is to “accommodate requests of the chairmen, regardless of political party.” At the time, there were no Democratic chairmen because Republicans controlled Congress.
– June 5, 2017 – The U.S. Ambassador to China resigned from his position, citing Donald Trump’s decision to leave the Paris Agreement.
– June 6, 2017 – EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt claimed 50,000 jobs had been added to the coal mining industry. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the number was closer to 1,400.
– June 6, 2017 – In more than 50 cases nationwide, children were heard bullying classmates with calls for deportation, references to Donald Trump’s name, and blatantly racist language. One eight-year-old girl in California said to a black classmate, “Now that Trump won, you’re going to have to go back to Africa, where you belong.”
– June 6, 2017 – White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer announced that Donald Trump’s tweets are official statements from the president.
– June 11, 2017 – Breaking with a longstanding custom, Donald Trump tried to cultivate a personal relationship with a federal prosecutor, Preet Bharara, after the 2016 election. Months after his firing, Bharara reported a sense of déjà vu listening to James Comey’s testimony regarding Trump’s bizarre interactions. Trump’s final call to Bharara, on March 9, 2017, was ostensibly to “shoot the breeze,” which Bharara found unethical and immediately reported to Attorney General Jeff Sessions. He was fired the following day.
– June 13, 2017 – Since the election, 70 percent of the properties purchased from the Trump Organization have reportedly sold to anonymous LLCs rather than identified people. Before the election, only 2% of Trump properties went to anonymous companies.
– June 13, 2017 – On Twitter, Donald Trump’s account blocked a veterans group that had been critical of him. The group, VoteVets, represents 500,000 U.S. military veterans.
– June 14, 2017 – Officials announced that Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller would investigate Donald Trump for obstruction of justice. This was part of Mueller’s ongoing investigation into Russia’s role in the 2016 election.
– June 15, 2017 – Donald Trump selected the person who planned Eric Trump’s wedding to run federal housing for the city of New York. In her new position, Lynne Patton, who had also helped organize some of Trump’s celebrity golf events, would control a multibillion-dollar budget to manage housing for thousands of New Yorkers.
– June 16, 2017 – In another rollback of a signature policy from the Obama administration, Donald Trump partially reversed Barack Obama’s effort to open diplomatic ties with the Cuba. Obama’s policy allowed American businesses and travelers to interact with Cuba for the first time in decades. Trump’s changes would “enforce the ban on tourism, enforce the embargo,” in response to what he called “the last administration’s completely one-sided deal with Cuba.”
– June 16, 2017 – The White House sought to soften a bipartisan bill crafted to put new sanctions on Russia and limit Donald Trump’s power to alter sanctions in the future.
– June 16, 2017 – Responding to special counsel Robert Mueller’s ongoing investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election, Donald Trump tweeted, “I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt”. “The man” referenced here is Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller to lead the Russia investigation and also issued a memo recommending former FBI Director James Comey’s firing.
– June 19, 2017 – Department of Energy Secretary Rick Perry announced he did not believe carbon dioxide causes climate change. This view contradicts numerous studies conducted by agencies like NASA, the EPA, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
– June 19, 2017 – During a security clearance renewal process, Michael Flynn failed to disclose a business trip to the Middle East during which he represented Russian and U.S. business interests as they planned to build a series of nuclear reactors. Representative Elijah Cummings of Maryland said of Flynn’s omission, “General Flynn’s actions are part of a broader pattern of concealing his foreign contact, payments, travel and work on behalf of foreign interests.”
– June 20, 2017 – The Trump administration planned to cut more than 1,200 jobs from the EPA, shrinking the workforce by 15 percent while slashing the EPA budget by 31 percent.
– June 20, 2017 – Donald Trump’s budget cuts to address homelessness and low-income housing did not cut funding for one New York City housing development—the subsidized Starrett City housing complex. It happened that Trump held a stake in Starrett City, and made about $5 million dollars off the property in three months during 2016. (June 20, 2017) Trump Business Dealings Policy
– June 21, 2017 – Department of Education Secretary Betsy DeVos tapped the CEO of a private student loan company to lead the Federal Student Aid program. This program handles $1.3 trillion in federal student loans for American citizens.
– June 22, 2017 – Two senior intelligence officials told Robert Mueller that Donald Trump had approached them separately and requested they use their position to publicly announce the Trump campaign had not colluded with Russian operatives.
– June 22, 2017 – At a rally with supporters, Donald Trump asserted that a law should exist which requires all immigrants to support themselves financially for five years before receiving welfare aid. This exact law has existed since 1996. Bill Clinton signed the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act restricting new immigrants to the U.S. from accessing federal benefits for a period of five years.
– June 25, 2017 – Donald Trump tweeted, “Hillary Clinton colluded with the Democratic Party in order to beat Crazy Bernie Sanders. Is she allowed to so collude? Unfair to Bernie!” At the time, Trump was under investigation for colluding with Russia to influence the 2016 election.
– June 26, 2017 – Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke flew on a charter plane from Las Vegas to his hometown in Montana, which cost taxpayers $12,375. Zinke and his staff used private and military aircraft multiple times.
– June 27, 2017 – Scott Pruitt and the EPA rolled back Obama-era protections that ensured drinking water was clean and safe for consumption.
– June 27, 2017 – The Trump Organization framed a March 1, 2009 cover of Time magazine and hung it on the walls of at least five Trump resorts. The cover features Trump with his arms crossed beside the headlines “Donald Trump: The Apprentice is a television smash!” and “TRUMP IS HITTING ON ALL FRONTS…EVEN ON TV!” Time magazine has confirmed the cover is fake.
– June 29, 2017 – Donald Trump attacked TV news host Mika Brzezinski on Twitter, saying he had once seen her when she was “badly bleeding from a face-lift.”
– June 30, 2017 – MSNBC news anchors Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski alleged the White House tried to blackmail them with an article about their relationship in the National Enquirer. The newly engaged co-anchors claimed they had texts and phone records from Trump advisers threatening to publish the Enquirer article if the pair did not contact Trump directly. The president apparently sought an apology for the couple’s unfavorable news coverage. Trump is a long-time friend and ally of David Pecker, the publisher of the National Enquirer, and had leveraged the relationship before. The Enquirer then published a hit piece on Scarborough and Brzezinski’s relationship.
– June 30, 2017 – For the position of senior adviser in the Office of Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment, Donald Trump appointed an activist who led a campaign to restrict transgender access to bathrooms. Under the Obama Administration, the Office of Gender Equality supported LGBT empowerment both domestically and abroad. Bethany Kozma, the activist and new senior adviser, has said in the past, “With Trump, we now have a president who is focused on remedying the lawlessness of the previous administration.”
– June 30, 2017 – Referring to the House’s passage of a second repeal-and-replace bill, Donald Trump tweeted, “If Republican Senators are unable to pass what they are working on now, they should immediately REPEAL, and then REPLACE at a later date!” If Obamacare were repealed without an alternative to replace it, 32 million Americans would lose health care coverage.
– June 2017 – Two anonymous White House officials told the New York Times that Donald Trump said Haitians “all have AIDS” and Nigerian immigrants wouldn’t ever “go back to their huts.” Newly released immigration statistics, which reported 15,000 Haitian immigrants had entered the U.S. since he took office, reportedly ignited President Trump’s tirade. While the White House subsequently denied Trump had used the words “AIDS” and “huts,” it did not deny the “overall description of the meeting.”
– June 2017 – The Trump International Hotel in Washington D.C. received $270,000 in payments from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for rooms, catering, and parking as part of a lobbying effort. This violates the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution, which forbids government officials from accepting “any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.” Donald Trump has retained an ownership interest in his businesses and thus could receive payments from foreign states.

JULY 2017
– July 1, 2017 – Donald Trump tweeted, “Crazy Joe Scarborough and dumb as a rock Mika are not bad people, but their low rated show is dominated by their NBC bosses. Too bad!”

That makes the last crowd toddlers then.
Lets lok at some actual facts
NZ hasn't borrowed massively every year like the previous government did. so there is a pretty big tick
They havent sold off the countries assets either.
Nor does the latest trust in government survey back what you say. it reflects a 12% increase in trust that the government does the right things.
Its findings run counter to the decline of trust in democratic political institutions as seen within many countries.
Asked whether they trust the government to do what is right for New Zealand, 65 per cent now answered ‘yes’ compared with 48 per cent in 2016. A total of 59 per cent say they trust government to deal successfully with national problems, up from 47 per cent in 2016. Furthermore, 49 per cent think New Zealand citizens’ interests are equally and fairly considered by the government, up from 39 per cent.
https://www.transparency.org.nz/public-trust-survey-2018-greater-trust-government/
we can compare this to the USA
Only a third of Americans now trust their government “to do what is right”—a decline of 14 percentage points from last year,
So Kiwis trust their current government twice as much as yanks do.

Democracy is about having policies that harvest the most votes. Its kind of the point of it.
That policy wasn't what got them in, but selling off all the houses and saying its to build more when they never did was what got the nats out, that along with hundreds of other broken promises
But you can always tell when someone is attempting to buy their way in they will promise tax cuts then pay for them with borrowing. Leaving the bill for future generations to pay for them.

Maybe you should ask how many of the people that voted for labour did so because of anything to do with Kiwi-build.
I think you will find it was more to do with stopping another 4 years of assets sales and overseas borrowing.
But i don't know why you are so worried about what labour does .
you would be better served sorting out a decent leader for the National party, as they will not win an election under Simon Bridges.
Nor will they win one with Judy Collins. No mater how much lippy they dress her up with, kiwis still remember her last time at the trough.

Democracy is about having policies that harvest the most votes. Its kind of the point of it.
That policy wasn't what got them in, but selling off all the houses and saying its to build more when they never did was what got the nats out, that along with hundreds of other broken promises
But you can always tell when someone is attempting to buy their way in they will promise tax cuts then pay for them with borrowing. Leaving the bill for future generations to pay for them.
It's funny....
In the Firearm thread - he's all 'DEMOCRACY! WILL OF THE PEOPLE! 80% AGREE!' - yet when referencing one of Labours Key campaign promises that they've utterly failed to deliver on, suddenly it's somehow Nationals Fault and the Will of the People isn't a factor.

Maybe you should ask how many of the people that voted for labour did so because of anything to do with Kiwi-build.
I think you will find it was more to do with stopping another 4 years of assets sales and overseas borrowing.
But i don't know why you are so worried about what labour does .
you would be better served sorting out a decent leader for the National party, as they will not win an election under Simon Bridges.
Nor will they win one with Judy Collins. No mater how much lippy they dress her up with, kiwis still remember her last time at the trough.

Last time you went on about Rhetoric you looked rather EGGlike
Had you ever heard of or used the word rhetoric before it became about the most common and trendy word to use by the liberal USA media (closely followed by the shit NZ media) after their Hillary lost the election?
Sounds like another stalling tactic.
Yes, i often have , without wishing to be sounding like a braggart, i have a fairly extensive vocabulary. Just exceedingly lazy grammar punctuation and spelling.
If you will look back in 2011 which if i are not mistaken precedes your last presidential election by a fairly substantial margin, i used the word fairly regularly.
Two pages worth in fact. looks like i used it 12 times at least just on KB alone before Trump even announced his candidacy.

Here a hint, i clearly couldn't give a shit if the target are reached. bit that t was attempted rather then the oppssite of saaying they would do one thing then doing the reverse, Kiwibuild wasn't a cornerstone of the election, The only people that are now desperately grasping onto it are the one that are desperate to get any form of traction or create a diversion away for the train wreak figures that tell the tale of the National leadership.
Do you think National can win an election with no coalition partners other than one mp they gift ACT with Simon bridges as leader?
Do you think they can win an election with Collins as a leader?
Do you think they can win an election with Paula benefit as leader?
Prior to the election Nationals big big target of Labour policy was an alleged 11 billion dollar budget hole they claimed Labour had.
Where is that? if national said it was there ,where is it? Could it be they where they 100% wrong just as everyone else said they were.

or cool metaphors, So what about the tradesman that said he was going to build a houses and instead he sold off all your other houses while your back was turned (at a loss) to his mates, who then rented them back to you for a profit.
There was even a referendum where the country voted not to sell off assets which the "builder" pretended wasn't applicable. Not a peep out of you about it though.
You thought that was okay fo the last 9 years previous. So why all of a sudden does it mater? you never wanted the houses built, you never seen the need, you were happy to pretend there wasn't a housing shortage tright up until election day.

the fact National is going to have to outsource to find a leader for a third time in about 15 years shows no one on in the party ranks is up to the task.
That fact that its common knowledge they are courting a leader outside of their own party should be a hint that even with in the national party they know those in their own party are clearly not up to the job of winning an election or heaven forbid running a country.

10,000 houses a year
Allowing them a while to get up to speed, some 1,000 houses a month.
I don’t think they even did that much calculation, more like think of a number and double it. Of course it’s possible they had been drinking and it all sounded pretty good at the time.

and there's your issue. People don't read a lot of what you post because it is either a pile of copy and paste, 10 pages long, irrelevant or your usual but national bullshit.
Dont go blaming your lack of intellect or cognitive abilities on me Jason.
You're moaning about a party you never voted for, in a country where you don't live, failing to complete a policy, you never wanted, or thought was needed in the first place. That doesn't even effect you in the first place.

Of course you don't, and yet in response to perfectly valid criticisms about labour's broken election promises involving hundreds of millions of dollars and affecting hundreds of thousands you absolutely foam at the mouth at largely imaginary nashnil transgressions.

To add some balance to that argument (and I'm not taking sides, you kids will have to sort yourselves out) there's a whole thread where a bunch of kiwis are doing the same about trump.
To be fair, it seems Jason was born in NZ, which helps to explain his ongoing interest in the topic, unlike a lot of Trump thread posters, most of which have been too busy posting on the Internet to actually visit the USA in person.

You don't seem to quite understand where you live. New Zealanders have a huge reputation as travellers. Offhand I can't think of any of my friends who haven't travelled the world either when young, in later life, or both. Many of the people I worked with had done so too. Some of the earlier travellers eventually made their life in Canada or the US permanently.
The 'big OE' is still a thing despite British restrictions on immigration making it more difficult.

Thank you for those words of wisdom. Most people in their twenties are away for a year or three.
Without adding them up I think I must have been to maybe twenty countries, some for just a one hour refuelling stop, and that can be long enough. Others I have lived in for years. These days I can't really be bothered with the embuggerances that go with international air travel so I'm happy to stay here thanks.

Jason has lived in NZ since The current PM and Opposition leaders were in diapers.
He goes off half arsed with no evidence to support his assertions. that's why he can never back them up with evidence, same as Ocean.
Meeting kiwibuild targets doesnt effect the rest of the world.
What Trump does and says on a national stage effects the world, his stupid trade wars and embargos and pulling out of deals like the TPP effect the rest of the world. its that simple.
Jason can say what ever he wants same as anyone else but he shouldn't get all prissy when hes asked to back up what he says.

While that's not completely untrue, it's way too extreme, you don't actually need to be 'invested' in a place. Not every country lets foreigners buy property. Apart from which supporting yourself would be impossible if you didn't speak the local language. That doesn't mean you shouldn't visit such places. The young Kiwis who work in the UK and tour Europe and maybe parts of Asia when not working are experiencing other cultures and learning.
There is still the old thing, "travel broadens the mind", but for that to work you have to have your eyes and your mind open. Most, but as we see here, not all do.

True True, I quite like travel, but compared to my perception of NZ from when I visited to when I moved here, it's a very different experience, I equate it more to seeing something 'warts and all'.
The part about settling was also from personal experience - I've got a couple of Friends who travel to other countries, mainly doing seasonal work for a number of Months, then onto somewhere else - their entire life fits inside of their Backpack, I'm not critiquing their life choice (It's one of their endearing features), however when you can literally grab a bag and go when things go south, it's less of a worry than having to break a rental lease, organise a moving truck, change children's schools etc. etc.

I think that clearly she does understand the difference - it is you who does not ..
The complainants were employed by the party - not by the caucus ... essentially it's an internal employment matter. There is no obvious reason why caucus and the PM should have been involved .. they are not the employers ..
It has got to caucus level because it's politically a very very bad look for the party - and that reflects badly on the whole party .. it only got to that level because of the party stuff ups ... and the complainants making it public ..
Now, I agree, the party has stuffed up - and heads needed to roll ... within the party structure. If the party had handled it properly - as they should have - this would never have reached the caucus ..

Yeah but that's not the typical Kiwi OE. That involves basically dumping yourself in London/Paris/Edinborough/LA and attempting not to sink without trace for a couple of years. It's enough to thoroughly integrate, and in my experience it does make a lot of Kiwis with that experience significantly less xenophobic, more open minded.
Which is why I get annoyed at our sometimes less than gracious acceptance of foreign OE visitors here.

OK - Yes, I see your point ..
Would I let this lot run my business ??? No - I would not let any of the party hierarchy run my business - they are a useless bunch of wannabes and do-gooders .. who's major recreation is being involved in the Labour party - they need to get a life ...
Would I let the Caucus run my business? That depends on which ones .. Claire Curran? Not at all - she's using up oxygen for no good purpose .. Others? Possibly ..

It's easy to make the argument that Nigel's actions have damaged the party - and for the good of the party he needs to resign. Nigel at least had the grace to accept he stuffed up and resigned ..
That is not the same thing as asking for his resignation ..
If Nigel had refused, she could not dump him - that would have to go to the party for a vote of 'No Confidence' ... i.e. only the party can roll him .. which is highly likely, almost certain, to go against him - especially if the motion was proposed by the PM ..
Nigel seems to have accepted the reality of his position .. .

She does not have any.
IF it is revealed that she knew about the sexual allegations, then she deliberately lied to the public.
A resignation would be appropriate as she cannot be trusted in other matters (naturally). The other people who are now being thrown under the bus to take the heat off of the tooth monster, will be forgotten rapidly.
She steadfastly refuses to take an interest in New Zealand's problems (this current scandal, Ihumatao, housing, homeless, child poverty, etc) and conveniently disappears out of the country to avoid the issues. Trying to get positive air-time for the job at the UN, obviously.

Would for instance 450 texts between them and a secret payout directly out of the PM's leaders fund ie tax payer money be enough to prove they were aware of the allegations?
