ACT Party The Politics of COVID has shown how desperately New Zealand needs honest conversations. The Prime Minister failed, requiring a third of the country to go under house arrest, and is reported as a hero. Here’s some real chutzpah: She triumphally announces that enough vaccine for 30,000
Marc Grey Are COVID Vaccines…Vaccines? In a previous article, the 4 COVID vaccines coming to New Zealand were discussed in some detail. In this one, we examine some common questions that people have about these vaccines. Firstly, because most of them are made via novel technology (in particular the

Seven o’clock on a Sunday night and there she was, Jacinda, looking suitably frowny faced and dressed in black. Always an ominous sign. She had had to forego one of the highlights of her year – the Big Gay Out. Three people, all from the same family, had been found
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says we are going hard and early, but I say “big gay out” to that. They knew of these cases on Sunday morning, so why didn’t Ardern do the unpopular thing and cancel Auckland’s Big Gay Out carnival on Sunday afternoon? Thousands and thousands

The Wuhan plague sure is a tricky little virus. It seems particularly determined to show up the arrogant bullshit of “experts” and public health bureaucrats.

As I reported recently, Victorian premier Daniel Andrews displayed his hitherto-unsuspected talent for stand-up comedy, when he claimed that Victoria had “higher standards” than any other state when it came to pandemic management. Dan is keeping them rolling in the aisles by following up with a classic banana-peel pratfall. Victoria
