Xavier T.R Ordinary has been involved in New Zealand politics for over 40 years as a political activist, commentator and strategist. The name Xavier Theodore Reginald Ordinary has been chosen with ton
A liberal elite academic thinks Shane Jones’s Indian comments should be tested in a court of law. Although calling a professor at Waikato University an academic is stretching credulity a little: Whether Jones wants to take New Zealand back to ethnicity-based restrictions within immigration in the future is unknown.
Tracey Martin appears to either be dead set stupid or is continuing to troll Shane Jones and Winston Peters. We wrote about this earlier and even a ran a poll where 93% of respondents thought she was totally effin’ stupid. Well, she’s been at it again. Jones, a New
Shane Jones must be ecstatic about the ongoing accusations of racism. Barry Soper brings some perspective to the debate: Let’s get some perspective on what Jones actually said to Newshub’s The Nation. “If you want another million, two million, three million people, we should debate it and there
Mike Hosking seems to be a regular reader of The BFD. He’s nailed it over what is happening with new gun laws. I can assure you in different circumstances the fact New Zealand First are now holding gun reform up would be major news. If for no other reason
The stupidity of the mainstream media, who appear to feed endlessly off the troll farm that is Twitter, seems to be growing exponentially. Take this tweet: The stupid is strong in this one. The math is pretty basic. It is 327,000,000 x $1,000,000 = 327,000,000,
The NZ Herald is perhaps one of the more dishonest news outlets out there in New Zealand. They’ve been caught with their pants on fire yet again. They’ve clearly been forced to print this retraction with some heavy-hitting legal firepower: Three related articles published in the Weekend Herald,
Andrea Vance looks like she is putting her hand up for a leading role in the Media Party. She has an opinion piece that is as vitriolic as it is wrong, about Shane Jones and his alleged racism: […] in this era of alternative facts, it’s not hard to see
The NY Times has written about their policies for journalists and editors covering impartiality and politics. It is pretty good even though it is laughable that out of all news outlets it is the NY Times pretending to be impartial on anything. One key area that perhaps the bosses at
Barry Soper highlighted in his column yesterday the absolutely shocking performance at Question Time by Simon Bridges which also proves that the hand brake is working: Jacinda Ardern has in the past invited us to read between the lines, so with prime ministerial permission it was worth applying the exercise
You’ve got to hand it to Simon Bridges and Gerry Brownlee, on Wednesday they managed to trap themselves into looking like they back dodgy ‘curry munchers‘ as they pursued Shane Jones for being racist. Barry Soper writes: If the man himself is under pressure, and there’s plenty for
The National Party is now in full Sergeant Schultz mode saying that they know nothing after Jami-Lee Ross revealed in parliament that the National Party has taken foreign cash from Chinese Communist Party linked people, and worse for them, the SFO has traced the money flow back to China. As
The NZ First “handbrake” is working again. I wrote a few weeks ago that Stuart Nash was overly confident about getting his anti-shooter bill passed, and voila!, NZ First is holding it up: The Labour party is struggling to get support to pass a new gun law as NZ First
Right now Phil Goff and Lianne Dalziel are under investigation for using a dodgy artifice to launder big donations by holding allegedly fake auctions and declaring those donations as anonymous. As was pointed out in an earlier post, this is a standard, and supposedly illegal, way political parties and candidates
The clown show over Labour’s promised light-rail plan continues, with a three-way split developing amongst the governing parties. The Government is splitting three ways on plans for Auckland light rail as the saga heads to its endgame phase. Labour Ministers are erring towards signing New Zealand up to a
Chris Trotter has given The Media Party a swift kick in the gentleman’s vegetables over their shock and horror that some pensioners earn over $100,000. It was a sentiment that ‘Pinko’ Farrar echoed to show just how red both he and Radio NZ are. Recently, however, a couple
The Chinese Donorvirus is spreading fast, now Christchurch mayor, Lianne Dalziel, is under investigation by the SFO for some allegedly dodgy donations: Police have referred a complaint about Christchurch mayor Lianne Dalziel’s election expenses to the Serious Fraud Office (SFO). Dalziel, who defeated Darryll Park and John Minto in
