The goverment declared a climate emergency last year and this year have moved to tax the bejesus out of ute owners to pay rich people a subsidy for their new, gay EV. What is becoming increasingly obvious is that all those gay EV drivers are driving around in cars powered
Dear Family/Friend You will see lots of farmers protesting this Friday. You may be wondering what it is all about. We do not protest lightly. The media may not convey the facts clearly so I am keen for you to understand our reasons. One of the key areas of

John Maunder Monthly rainfalls for Tauranga have been recorded at several recording sites during the last 122 years. From January 1898 to December 1904, the observation site was described as the Tauranga Harbour, from November 1904 to April 1907 the site was described as simply ‘Tauranga’. From January 1910 to
DaveOnTheWestBank The constant braying of the media about greenhouse gas emissions and how we must spend more and more taxpayers dollars to investigate ways to reduce these emissions are a major source of irritation to many of us. Everyone is on board with this twaddle as far as I can
I have taken to reading The Spectator Australia and The Telegraph in the UK recently, as they produce decent journalism that is well researched, well written and thought-provoking without being inherently biased. The Telegraph attacks members on both sides of the political divide roughly equally, while The Spectator attacks wokeism,
Whether or not you believe human intervention is responsible for increased CO2 emissions and that those emissions are a matter of planetary life and death, Ardern’s goal of 100% renewable energy by 2035 is quite simply unrealistic. I hope the popular ute turns out to be Ardern’s shower
Todd Muller has decided to step down at the next election after nine years as the Member of Parliament for the Bay of Plenty. “This has been a difficult decision because being a Member of Parliament is a huge privilege, but it does come at a cost. I have decided

Eliora Indonesian coal merchants will be doing well out of Ardern’s scheme to reduce NZ’s CO2 emissions. The Ardern-led government loves to announce ideological clangers to unsuspecting Kiwis. These new schemes are coming at a fast pace but with little rational thought about how or if they can

Dr Muriel Newman nzcpr.com Last year Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern declared a “climate emergency” in New Zealand. Now, in response to the Climate Commission’s report outlining how New Zealand should reduce greenhouse gas emissions to meet its United Nations Paris Accord targets, she’s claiming climate change is
As the ideologues in government announce a reverse Robin Hood tax to encourage EV sales, one has to wonder where they were when the ability to think critically was handed out. Stealing from the poor to subsidise the wealthy into smugmobiles is wrong on so many levels and yet the
Craig Lord There seems to be a new festering sore arising in our youth and unless it is lanced quickly, it will become toxic and spread like – well, like a pandemic. Ironically, I am talking about a virus, but it’s a virus that spreads from hate. I’m fairly
