Flag?

[mashman]

I let the kids have the votes. I suspect the flag would have changed if there were some reasonable options to choose from. Letting any old 'know nothing moron' design a flag was a mistake. The laser eyed kiwi was something quite special Made the country a laughing stock

Us too... but if laser kiwi had have been an options, mine would have voted for it lol. Darned fine flag

One for all the pro-change wankers.

First the costly waste of money on the flag now we are going to have to stump up to pay for Clark to get another useless non productive UN position!

You say that like there are useful and productive UN positions to be had out there.

The " Change the Flag" mob and JK got some Chinese Donors along for some fund raising Chinese Donors along who apparently have long memories about the British...

"We talked about the treaties the British signed with the Chinese, the Boxer Rebellion, all those sort of points of Chinese history. It's interesting because that sort of thing still comes out. Obviously, the colonisation of Hong Kong.

"All of those things are very recent problems to the Chinese community. To us it's like a while back. One of them commented that the Chinese civilisation has been around for thousands of years so the memory of those things is quite recent."

The Boxer Rebellion was an anti-foreign and anti-Christian uprising between 1899 and 1901 which the British military took a key role in suppressing. It followed the 1842 colonisation of Hong Kong and the 1899 expansion into the New Territories.

"We knew there was support in the Chinese community because of the Union Jack," Mr Holden said.

Talk about selective memories.
That piece of shit Chairman Mao killed between 18 and 45 million and you got to China and he is 'revered' as a Hero.
Taiping Rebellion- 20 million dead
Mr Key and his Donors should just fuck right of to China if they don't like English.

The National Party may have steered NZ thru the seemingly endless GFC but they have sold the future of NZ to foreign ownership whilst lining their own pockets with Rental Properties and Trusts.

Sat Morning rant over.
