It’s said that crises bring out the best and worst in people. In the case of the legacy media, it’s brought out almost nothing but the worst. A social media meme sums it up best: What’s worse is that the so-called ‘quality’, taxpayer-funded media are
MERS. SARS. The common cold. These are all coronaviruses. So why is COVID-19, the “Wuhan Flu”, almost universally dubbed coronavirus? It’s stupid, on every level. It’s like calling the Bugatti Veyron “car”. It might be the fastest, baddest of the recent crop, but it’s not the
Please share this article with others as we all need to play our part to protect the vulnerable. I’m a GP in St Heliers and it’s really important we get the message out that if you’re worried about Covid19: * STAY HOME AND PHONE 0800 358 5453 * DO
On Saturday the Prime Minister sold us all a pipe dream. She said they were going hard and getting ahead of the virus, and that the goal was to “flatten the curve”. Unfortunately, politics and the desire of the Prime Minister to be everyone’s friend, rather than a leader,
The arrogance of the legacy media knows no bounds. Even as they irresponsibly whip up the flames of panic, they refuse to accept any culpability. Instead, they point the finger of blame at anyone, anywhere, but them. Donald Trump gets the blame, of course. If that fails, then they just

There has been a lot of talk about this virus thingy. In our daily meanderings we come across opinions covering all scenarios, “It’s not as bad as the flu”, “It’s only old people who die”, “It’s ok, we only have a few cases”, “The Governments aren’t
In an attempt to appear decisive and in control, Prime Minister Ardern has made claims about the restrictions her government has put in place that are pure hyperbole. To be frank, if her claims were buckets they would not hold water. It will be the strictest border restriction rules in
This muppet knew he was in trouble with the virus and yet still flew. His Australian doctor had to dob him in. What a dickhead! An Australian man is self-isolating in Wellington after testing positive to coronavirus. Townsville Dance Teacher Andre Reynaud was tested by Queensland Health after returning
The world we live in today has the greatest capacity in the planet’s history for information distribution. On that basis, one might expect us to be the best and most accurately informed society of all time. Except that our new found information technology is in the hands of every
People’s reactions to Covid-19 have been interesting, to say the least. There is my very good friend (a leftie, who is also a big fan of Jacinda) who says everyone is overreacting, and in the end, it is ‘only old people’. Tell that to Tom Hanks and his
