    Although he was sympathetic to the resident people my understanding was that he left stuff for future expeditions from England.

If they had a true indenity and cared for the community they would be looking after us a lot better.

    Actually, there is some truth in saying that NZ is responsible. We've given them too much rope.

    This new version of Word is a real bitch. Anyway, happy now?
    Yes, thats the response I was expecting from you.

    yeah they were really good navigators.... thats why they settled in Europe and discovered lots and lots of country's,,, DUh.......let s face it they arent the brightest ,, look nothing against poly's but hey its not like they invented the wheel, or anything more advanced than that, whilst the rest of the world was playing around with splitting atoms,, the poly's were hacking each other to pieces, and shrinking heads,,,, whhoooooo,,,,,, now there's a discovery!!!

    We also have the lowest unemployment rate too.

    The reality of NZ politics under the MMP system is trade off's. With the demise of the Allaince Labour now has no Party that it can rely on. National has ACT. Small yes but reliable for support. The Greens have not ruled out a coalition with National and this too is true of the Maori Party. Given the state of play between the Helen Clarke and Tariana Turia the natural alliance between Maori and Labour will be in doubt for the forseeable future.

    So Labour to shore up it's support for Maori has gone after the urban Maori vote. Their success can be measured in the small percentage that switched to the Maori Roll. If the Maori Party ever becomes the defining party in NZ politics what has happened in the last three years will pale in comparison. Be greatfull Finn that Labour have walked a fine line in this too some success I might add. I don't agree with some of the rhetoric of Maori politicians but that is all it is, rhetoric designed for local consumption.

    I along with many others still think NZ is the best place in the world to live. Those that don't, don't have to stay here. That's their choice.

    My only question here is why do we look so different, talk different and most imprtant why can there be no path to the start of a people and their race?

    I base my feelings if someone is a $unt then they are a $unt no matter what colour or race

    No we don't. The stats don't count all the people on benefits.

    Did you also know that there are six recognised dairy goat breeds in the United States: Alpine, La Mancha, Oberhasli, Nubian, Saanen, Toggenburg.
    Each breed of dairy goat gives a different tasting milk. Oberhasli goats give milk that tastes closest to cow's milk.

    Got anything else you want to add SpudForbrains?

    Came across this in the herald yesterday, and thought it was quite good - http://www.nzherald.co.nz/search/sto...A783027AF1010A

    Unfortunately we are afflicted by "lies, damned lies and statistics" once again.
    There has been a policy of moving people OFF the unemployment benefit and onto the sickness benefit.
    This taints the truth that our unemployment rate is low. We taxpayers are still paying substantial amounts for part of our population to sit at home and watch afternoon TV.
