Who is going to give to Telethon?

[mowgli]

Ho hum. Another worthless libertarian wank-fest.

Right wingers in New Zealand have really moved on - from outright denial that poverty exists here to blaming the poor for the failures of their system (promoting the myth of the Undeserving Poor)

You guys would make beautiful babies.

It's nothing to do with politics.

People suck.

I think providing kids with the essentials through a telethon is fu*king disgusting.
goes to show how many lazy ass ppl cannot provide the essentials to support life for there children.

and the fact the ciggerettes, pokies and woodstocks are being bought with the DPB rather than food for there children makes me sick.
you could see it and read it off the hosts expressions, and humour, the whole things a joke, and reminds us how fu*ked some families are still in new zealand.

I will never give a CENT to this organisations,[/COLOR]

the parents of the children who need to be feed should be investigated.




this was at 1000pm so if u didnt see it dont worry.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What? How does Kids Can (a children's cancer victim support charity) fall under the heading of "Fighting Poverty"? How does pokies and Woodstock have anything to do with it?

You may or may not have noticed (probably not - most people don't give a shit about anything until it happens to them) that there are only two Children's Oncology (it's a big word - it means "Where they treat people with cancer) units in the country and the children tend to be spread across a rather greater area than Christchurch and Auckland.

Without Kids Can, kids would be being treated for cancer without any parents or family on hand if they had to be moved to either Christchurch or Auckland.

If you want to rant about providing basics, talk to a range of DHB members, who literally don't give a shit about anything except profit despite not having a paying customer base, about attracting and retaining qualified medical practitioners to major NZ Hospitals. It's not just about pay. Have a chat with any NZ Government over the last 40 years about why Hospitals are failing NZers while you're at it.

Yea yea but hey money talks honestly at least eh.After what some of them have been through the last thing they need is some freak talking 'love" specially if its free.

You would be very very surprised what they need...take kids who have been through then system..paid social workers, paid foster homes etc....they are not stupid....if you are a mentor the first thing they will ask is "do you get paid to do this"...when you say "No" it makes a big difference..

could not afford for them.

Exactly and what are the "essentials" that these kids need...

[Grahameeboy]

Like kiwibiker styles?

You are not too far from the truth there

That's not what the charity being supported does. That's TV3 cynically milking it for all it's worth.

You should find a target for righteous indignation that actually deserves it, rather than get taken in by propaganda.

Always remember; People Suck.

You're suggesting that this fuckin place be a model? Look around, 90% of people on here are full of shit, or have no god damn clue.

Um didn't you try to tell me before this has nothing to do with politics?

I am not going to say too much..but the "financial" side is not the answer...these kids need love, care and friendship to help them reach their goals...

10% of say 2,000 active members is 200 who can make a difference...plus the other 40% who talk shit on this site but have the ability to make a difference as well

[Rodney007]

as long as homes ok , school doesnt really matter.

they need to make some kind of new organisation that goes into every home that has a child on this 3 a day plan.'

and find out why the parents cannot give there children shoes, and lunch,

sorry duno if im on right path (im usaly not :P) but pissed me off watching it last night, IMO **
