Re: NZ Politics Thread
That's fair analysis from GON. I had similar issues with some of the Ministers in the previous government. That being, some of these people have had years in opposition to prepare for a specific Ministerial role. They should all be subject matter experts and be able to hit the ground running. It's ...

He won’t admit that it was for incompetence, came up with some corporate nonsense, and I believe he could have looked more decisive.
However, it’s the correct decision .

Re: SRP R10 Crusaders v Rebels
I’ve got to admit it’s still quite enjoyable supporting a struggling team . Frustrating as it is to see them bomb game after game , it’s a different kind of high that is experienced with the odd win .
Only winning the entire competition beats it for intensity .

Re: NZ Politics Thread
Not recruiting for frontline stuff ain’t going to improve things . In fact medical specialists fear that it’s going to fatally weaken these services . Beds available ( which are insufficient anyway ) will be halved in Hillmorton .
