They Really Think We Are Stupid

They Really Think We Are Stupid

The Dumb and Dumber of New Zealand politics, Chris Hipkins and Grant Robertson, must really think we are exceptionally stupid. They are bravely forging ahead with their GST-off-fruit-and-vegetables policy, despite denying they were going to have this as a policy just a few short weeks ago.

Will the Real Pilate Please Stand Up?

As Geoffrey Blainey argues in A Short History of Christianity, far from being a fictional character, the very fact that we know anything at all about Jesus is remarkable in itself. After all, a middle-class Jewish carpenter’s son in a far-flung boondock province was the last sort

Lazarus with a Triple Bypass and Steroids?

Back in 1987, John Howard described his chances of a comeback as “Lazarus with a triple bypass”. Howard had suffered a humiliating defeat against Bob Hawke and seemed done for good with politics. Less than a decade later, he went on to become Australia’s longest-serving PM. Could Tony
