Re: NZ Politics Thread

I'm not presuming that. Just saying the criticisms needs to be accurate. And being sanctioned for "not finding a job" clearly wasn't accurate. No , however when the unemployment rate is high like it is presently , obviously there’s an invisible hand of sorts. Less jobs mean people stay unemployed l...

Re: IRB U20 World Cup 2025

Saffer fans not exactly covering themselves in glory on social media here .

Far better to disengage and just enjoy the game .

The boorishness of their ‘banter’ just gets exhausting and really takes away from what should be a great game experience.

"Fake genocide". Only one of us supports the murder of innocents in a near industrial scale. Only one of us claims bombing people is a humanitarian act.

He’s addicted to lying , and whilst his critical facilities are now utterly compromised by dementia , he can still lie like there’s no tomorrow.

Re: Paul Gallen Vs Sonny Bill Williams

I liked SBW the Stan sports guy. Had genuine passion but clearly had a bias for his mates like that guy from Tokoroa. His meltdown over Eddie Jones was quite funny. Was quite limited as a rugby player but still quite useful - especially in the World Cup final. As for this boxing thing, there’s no w...
