The Karel Sroubek saga couldn't have been handled any worse than that Lees Galloway ding bat did either. The list goes on.
    This, White Is and the Chch episode are the best things to have happened to labour. Great distractions from their day to day incompetence which the masses have largely forgotten about cause 'our Jacinda' is a really good baby kisser. Without them they would have nothing.

    Yep Labour, fucking top notch except when it comes to actually running the country.
    LOL really?

    I was thinking about this and it seems you've managed to somehow miss the
    enormity of what has been happening in the US. There have been pictures of bodies being loaded into the back of refrigerated trucks with forklifts in New York because all the morgues were full. There were photographs of rows of coffins in mass graves.

    There has been nothing like that here and hopefully there won't be.

    No, it hasn't been lost on me at all.
    Someone on here recently was adamant that the death rate for this deadly virus was around 3.5 percent, which based on the population of the US would be around 11.5 million.
    Yep, there have been pictures of refrigerated trucks with forklifts. Did you actually see the bodies?
    Anyway, if their leader is some kind of mental retard, I'd rather not buy into it. It's not a requirement to buy into all the troubles of the world.
    I was going to say I have enough of my own, but I don't really.

    Had to larf at his aims for becoming a future top classic motorcycle shop. Here's his motto:

    "The Classic Motorcycle Shop is dedicated to becoming New Zealands best classic motorcycle dealer."

    Well he's rooted that theory...

    I'm sure someone will be along shortly and correct me if I'm wrong:

    Of course, this is just hypothetical because the US haven't peaked yet...
    Those bastards need to sort their shit out, it makes it harder for us to trade with them.
    Looks like in America, one in every 4,100 are dying.
    in NZ its one in every 250,000

    and small towns with mass shootings have to do the same, earthquakes etc. Lots of places have to change their operations in this time, and the media will inflame that to often what it really isn't. if done properly refrigerated trucks are just the ticket for the job, better thn a a container that's harder to move simply. still their stats say they could have done better of course

    There have been many, they were in the news constantly. An image search should provide many more.

    Well if they keep getting together en mass to have rallies protesting about being in lockdown then thats bound to rise.
    Hard to fix stupid, or pity it.

    I'm not dougting there are a lot of casulaties but I'd like to see links to the actual news feeds as well. The US has been preparing for this for a long time installing multi body concrete coffins in lots of urban areas.
