Re: Israel declares state of war

As you know my biggest objection was in not clamping down on the anti-semetic stuff , a personal insult completely unsupported by fact and roughly the equivalent of dubbing one a flagrant racist or worse .

Re: NZ Politics Thread

Can we please see a semblance of leadership from Luxon please ?

Even if I kick against the ideology of some parties , if they do win an election I expect an effective leader.
