Labour

[TheDemonLord]

So it appears the Labour PM is currently Labouring in a Labour of her own, whilst the rest of us Labour on.

Was there ever such a Labour, in the history of Labour, that required such Labour from the Labour PM?

[TheDemonLord]

Also when the Labour PM has finished Labour, she will both no longer be in Labour, whilst remaining in Labour

[johcar]

Ironically, this will be the first real work she's ever done...

Why? All she has to do is open the flange and enjoy the drugs.

It's a bit laboured ..

[AllanB]

I hope the nurses are treating her well.

[tigertim20]

I hope the nurses treat her like shit.

She isnt fuckin special.

Might be a good chance for her to wear the brunt of worn-out, over-worked, under-paid, under-funded, underappreciated healthcare professionals at their wits end.

[TheDemonLord]

And here I was, just hoping for a good bit of Punning, with a slight bit of abuse of the word "Labour".

That wont happen.In my albeit limited experience every single person I have encountered at one of our hospitals have been very proffesional.The situation they find them selves has little to do with the labour Party and even less with the current PM

you are quite correct - most of them are in it because they want to help people - so theyll take the shit over and over, with a smile.

Her fault or not, shes in a unique position to see, understand, and respect what they do - be nice to think theyll get some kind of acknowledgement beyond the obligatory 'they were great' comment in the inevitable woman's day article

You need a segway, steer the team towards First.

Then later we can add in Winnie the grand Poobah and it'll take on a life of its own :drool:

To quote Douglas Adams: "most of the people were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper, which was odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.”

Nurses specialize in what they do, but when it comes to identifying the problem, they seem to have failed miserably. Money is only a small part of the problem. The main issue with nursing, is that they get worked into the ground, with unreasonable working conditions, unrealistic expectations, and huge personal responsibility.

Money is not what they should be asking for. A sustainable job role would be of considerably more benefit to many of them (my wife included).

It will be Sir Winnie when he retires.

You say that like he actually has any other choice, but to retire from politics in 2020 :lol:

Wishful thinking. I'd pass a law saying politicians must stand down when they hit retirement age.

Welcome to the Social Media meth lab our site seems to have become.



I can't say there is a lot for kids to look forward to these days, declining living standards, over priced poor quality housing, lack of teachers, low wages, more global debt than just before the last GFC, rise of the far right, China and its one man band, and so on.

I did a review, I no longer live in a stone building shared with farm animals like my Grandfather ( 1875-1945), or walk to school in the snow with no shoes ( 1930's),come from a family of 9 which at least 2 died and ruled by English oppression for 800 years and lived thru a World War that took millions of lives so yes its better now.
Traditional slavery has been replaced by financial one now.

Choosing to live 10 times better than your grandparents by borrowing the difference between that and the nine times better you actually earn isn't slavery. Read the book.

Electrician Salary in 1997 $45K- House- $200K- 5 x F....I....V....E

Electrician Salary in 2017 $60K- House $1000 000 16x

( real Auckland numbers not stats)

Beats me how Teachers, Nurses and anyone on less than $30 an hour gets by, glad I'm no longer on the tools.

Thats what happens when you think quantitive easing will get your economy going, it all goes into assets.

The price of electricians and houses in your neck of the woods is one of thousands of factors that make for better/worse living standards, if you're really that disenfranchised with that specific pair then either remove the constraints governing both or choose a different trade/city.

The fact remains, the poorest of us now live far better and far longer than the top 1% of a couple of generations ago.

So people on $16 an hour are better off than in the 50's?.....hmmmmm.

I can't say I recall seeing beggars in NZ before the 00's, saw lots when I lived in London in the 80's

The above was an example, I'm no longer on the tools.

[jasonu]

Lets face it. Living in NZ is a fucking rip off if earning $100,000 isn't enough to make ends meet.

They're not living in NZ ... they're living (for want of a better word) in Auckland ... ;)

But if they couldn't/didn't figure out they couldn't live on a $100,000 lifestyle on a $50,000 income without changing their lifestyle ... :scratch:

Kids cost money ... a parent has to look after it (with resulting loss of wages/salary) or you pay somebody to look after it ... :pinch:

Some on lower incomes can't figure out why they can't have booze and smokes ... AND food ... and still own a flash car like "everybody else" ... :yes:

If the word fuck offends you - stiff fucking shit.

I've got nothing but contempt for fuckwits who feel the need to mask their own failings in life by criticising the physical appearances of women in power.

Helen Clark was constantly subjected to the same misogynist rants.

No not even her husband ever complimented her appearence
I would wager even you you referred to Muldoon as being "piggy" more than once.
"Big norm" wasn't about Norman Kirk being being tall either.
Lange weight was open fodder.

Yes. If you don't believe that then list the assets they have access to.

Yes, same reason, if pays better than it used to. Fuck, according to tax paid/benefits accrued over half of the population are beggars. It pays A LOT.

So you didn't like something and changed it. Why aren't you doing more of that instead of bitching about how hard we've got it?

Also; read the book.

1997 NZ population 3.7 million Aukaland Population 1.1 million 29% of pop
2017 NZ population 4.7 million Auckland population 1.6 million 36% of pop
That's a 7% increase compared to population average.
IF the same population demographic continued to live outside of Auckland as previously did Auckland house prices would be a lot cheaper.

His high ground is more akin to a chip on his shoulder.

Good point. Carry on.

Just so long as there's no blaming in there, can't abide all the blamestorming. Besides, katflap has that shtick covered for the entire planet.

She was wrong, just like you are.

My two kids have an amazing and exciting world out there to look forward to. I just wish I wasn't that old that I won't get to experience it.

Obviously I pity any kids having to grow up in Auckland but hey, Auckland, that seems to account for half the problems you describe.
