Who can spell 'cover-up'? just the tip of the iceberg me thinks KiwiBlog has a lot to say about the subject www.kiwiblog.co.nz/2023/03/what_a_comprehensive_inquiry_should_cover.htmlWe have rock solid proof that the Government has been denying OIA requests as out of scope, when they were beyond any dispute within scope. It is possibly no coincidence that the PM’s Deputy Chief of Staff who approved this, was also named by Dr Sharma as taking part in a seminar for Labour MPs on how to avoid disclosing information under the OIA |

Me too. Think I might become a NZer again to reduce their numbers. Note that the bimbo hasn't got a UN job and instead has her nose in the Windsor trough doing a non job for a man created non issue. Hopefully she will export herself to the UK and we ,taxpayers won't be paying her. Her legacy exceeds Muldoon's and I truly wish her all the worst for the misery she caused to NZ, the never ending lies and hypocrisy. Hipkins too. Same deal but a gender change .

Crybaby? Dear God, the Greens are so woke they can't even use proper insults. What ever happened to 'useless woke cunt'? Thats what the majority think of Cloe. Where does Crybaby sit on the scale of personal insults? just below 'I don't want to be your friend' and just above 'you are ugly and your mum dresses you funny'? |

never even heard of her, but the defection of Meka Whaitiri from Liebour to the racist party is going to add another twist to the election this year www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2023/05/political-commentator-barry-soper-explains-how-meka-whaitiri-defecting-to-m-ori-party-could-be-good-for-new-zealand-first.html"There'll be those out there that know that if the Māori Party do get in, the policies that have been shelved will be back certainly on the front burner after the election if the Māori Party hold the balance of power," Soper said. "It's going to be, I think, really difficult for Labour… with a disenfranchised Māori vote and that's what it looks as though it could be," he added.
Earlier on Wednesday (NZ time), Hipkins denied he'd lost control of his Cabinet.and For Labour, what this means is all of the momentum for Hipkins is gone, all of the issues they want to put behind them leading into the election campaign… are all going to be front and centre," Sherson said, appearing alongside Soper.
"To the New Zealand First point… it could go either way; on one way, you look at it and go, 'The oxygen's been sucked out of New Zealand First as the kingmaker' because all anyone's talking about is Te Pāti Māori. On the other way, people might go, 'Jeepers - that combination of Labour, potentially the Greens and Te Pāti Māori? We'll switch our vote to New Zealand First.
The fact that even Newsgrub is questioning Hipkins leadership says the journalists are smelling blood.... |

Meka Whaitiri was the one suspended for bullying her press secretary. And this isn't any namby pamby Greens bullying, no cry baby BS, she left bruises on her press secretary...
I've got to say though, if you are going to bully someone, do it properly. Leave bruises. That is note woke bullying, that is real bullying.

More openness and transparency from the govt that will govern for everyone... www.kiwiblog.co.nz/2023/05/the_whaitiri_decision_is_looking_dodgy.htmlIf this is correct, that is appalling. If she resigned from the parliamentary Labour Party in writing, then the Electoral act is clear – she is no longer an MP. You can't retract such a letter after the fact, just because you didn't realise what the impact would be. We now have a farcical situation where she is a Labour Party MP, a Māori Party MP and an Independent MP all at the same time.
The Speaker should release all correspondence he has had with Whaitiri and the Labour and maori Parties on this issue. Whether or not she is till an MP should not be something decided behind closed doors with no sunlight. Let us see for ourselves what she wrote. I've also heard that Finance Minister Grant Robertson spent several hours with the Speaker yesterday. Why? Was he advising him on what to do? The Hansard from Wednesday shows the Speaker struggling to explain how he can declare she is an Independent MP, but also still a Labour Party MP. |

Don Brash suggesting National should do a deal with NZ First not to stand a candidate in Northland www.bassettbrashandhide.com/post/don-brash-national-should-do-a-deal-on-northlandit is an idea with alot of merit subject to the elephant in the room of can Winston be trusted. That is linked to how aggrieved Winston feels towards Liebour with them hiding He poohie poohie from him. You can be sure if Liebour get back in, apart from further dividing the country by race they have a whole raft of new taxes lined up, email from Nicola Willis received today I wanted to give you a quick update on this concerning news from Parliament.
Labour’s Capital Gains Tax is back on the table.
Yesterday Labour’s Deputy Prime Minister, Carmel Sepuloni made that clear.
Christopher Luxon asked her a direct yes or no question: will there be a capital gains tax or a wealth tax under Labour?
Her reply: “not in this term”.
If Labour win, make no mistake, they will be ready with more taxes to hit you with. A capital gains tax could hit every KiwSaver account, every small business, every retirement nest egg and every rental property.
Need more? Well Labour actually went and raised their Ute Tax yesterday! Meaning hard-working Kiwis will end up paying even more for their cars just to subsidise $80,000 Tesla’s.
National is the party of tax relief. Kiwis cannot afford another 3 years of Labour’s high-taxing and wasteful spending.
Watch the video of Carmel Sepuloni dodging the question on a Capital Gains Tax
National’s plans are clear. We say no to a capital gains tax. We say no to an inheritance tax. We say no to a wealth tax. We say yes to reducing tax paid by working people, see our plan here and calculate what it means for you and your family.
If we are elected this year that’s exactly what we will deliver.
Thank you,
Nicola
Deputy Leader |

There seems to be many who think this is surprise to Chippy and co.
Both the Labour and the Maori Party know if Labour gets caned so does the Maori Party, also the charge to total Maori control of NZ. This whole things is a jack up to try and stop Labour getting the boot.
If not why are they giving each other virtual (hopefully) blowjobs not trading blows about her lack of honour and morels.
