What I don't get is that if these people didn't buy the homes, they would be renting them - so it didn't change the equation at all really. The big problem is demand and you could say that the government's actions actually reduced that from what it could have been. I still believe the biggest cause...

The previous governments attacks on small landlords resulted in many selling up. These properties have gone to a mixture of new immigrants and first home buyers. What I don't get is that if these people didn't buy the homes, they would be renting them - so it didn't change the equation at all reall...

Is it just me or is Judith Collins the best of that lot? The Charlie Ngatai of politics? The less she speaks the better she looks in comparison to those that do? Well she retweeted the Nat Party announcement on food in schools commenting that the lunch shown looked nutritious and healthy. Except it...

Trump is lock step with Netanyahu.

It’s far more than mouthing off in this case at least .

Eugenius

It’s hard to think of any President that would have opposed Israeli action from the start.

Biden is hardly unique.

Trump certainly wouldn’t be ruminating about Rafah, he’d be all in .

Eugenius

In fact it’s not a deciding factor in the young vote .

Surprisingly.

Eugenius

You would have argued similar during the Vietnam war .

Quite the barometer.

Eugenius

Not quite the same thing though as me claiming it was it ?

So lay off with the petulant and imaginary bullshit huh ?

Eugenius

I claimed that ?

Where exactly ?

Unlike you I’m pretty sure I stick to the subject at hand and attempt to resist whataboutery.

I see no reason to minimise let alone continually rationalise the disaster that is currently unfolding in Gaza .

You do .

A good barometer.

I’ve not claimed that.

Ohhhhhhh yes you did - you dishonest bugger.
I claimed that for the Iraq war which it did for 3 years. Quite amazing your batting along with the wrong idiot here who even posted a link demonstrating his wrongness .

You very clearly said one year !

Eugenius

Biden is clearly better than Trump. The quandary is that if he keeps winning that sets the standard; he's good enough. Just possibly if he loses they'll try to do better. Sure mate . As if Trump wouldn’t have supported just as vehemently, and frankly I doubt he would even consider restraint- ever. ...

Is Charlie Ngatai married to a Samoan too ?

Eugenius

It’s stupid - agreed.

Eugenius

Sorry, you release the link was 2003-2006 casualties ? So even the 250k would mean over 84,000 a year far in advance of the 20,000 in Gaza. I assume you’ve no understanding of the link you posted ? Again, stop it you’re looking very silly. As I've said, the link to the various figures is there for ...

Eugenius

As I've said, the link to the various figures is there for those who want to look into it... Lets see your evidence for the 250k dead civilians every year. Where is it? Just post it for feck sake, it shouldn't be that hard. I’ve not claimed that. indeed. Iraq was worse Yemen worse even by your abso...

What an odd thing to say. Are you implying that Caleb is thick? Twat.
I assumed it was a Gen Z reference from a Boomer. Like a rotary phone or cursive writing.

It was , but now that you mention it …

I would have thought that given the western secular democracy supposed and absolutely supported by some posters here , that we might presume of them a higher standard of comparable morality ? Certainly I expect far more of Israel than that promoted and actioned by their current extremist government...

Funnily enough I always wondered why Jesus of Nazareth who seems to be featured in the later part of said book isn’t recorded as saying anything about homosexuality whatsoever. Perhaps the message had already been branded in , or even quite simply because he didn’t give a shit ? What confuses me is ...

We’ve been here before haven’t we dear ? I’ve explained that I feel most strongly about this particular conflict because I’ve been there several times and have friends involved . Yes I’m invested .

Same old same old , with a nice tempt at irrelevant deflection thrown in .

How about surprising us with a new approach old sport ?

You’re becoming terribly predictable.

Posturing is all he’s got left.

You haven’t even dared to travel there , stay in your safe little corner playing with yourself.

The singular most consistent and defining factor is trauma experienced as a child and the loss of at least one ( often both ) parents to the actions of a foreign power .

The gilded life of the Bin Ladens must have been terrible.

Unbelievable.

I love this description of the train-wreck that was the post cabinet press conference yesterday as Luxon and Mitchell tied each other up with numbers of new (or old) prison beds It was feeling like an impossible maths problem in a TV sitcom.

Odd for a team that says it 'out of respect to the other team', it doesn't seem to have been mentioned to Tonga or Romania.... Perhaps because they would have more seen it as a sign of mockery as they had absolutely no chance to make the RWC final contrary to SA? Some people have really huge proble...
