Government Hiding Behind Covid
Kate Hawkesby points out what is becoming increasingly obvious. The government is taking advantage of COVID to avoid having to be held accountable for its incompetence. I know of four families who lost teenagers to suicide these past school holidays. […]Our suicide rates in this country should be of no

My Wuflu Test
On Tuesday this week, I woke up with a runny nose. It was completely my fault: I went to bed very late Monday night without having had the heater on during the evening, or at night. Having turned soft by living too many years in Auckland, and the fact my
The Children Are Running the Playground
The chickens are now coming home to roost. The Government setting out to eliminate COVID was a huge miscalculation. This was never a realistic option. It’s on a par with their Kiwibuild pledge. The Labour politicians seem divorced from reality, even the three or four that have something resembling
Learning to Live With COVID-19?
Dr Oliver Hartwich nzinitiative.org.nz At the end of this week, New Zealand is back in a situation we hoped to have left behind. With Auckland in lockdown and the country on alert, COVID-19 is back. Perhaps the virus entered on some refrigerated goods. However, the Director-General
We’re Printing Money
Jordan Williams Executive Director New Zealand Taxpayers’ Union In the nearly seven years I’ve been running the Taxpayers’ Union, it’s fair to say the last few weeks have been the strangest. We totally rewrote our election campaign strategy following COVID the first time. We scrapped the election “Bribe-
Auckland is a Police State
A friend travelling to work on the first day back in lockdown said he was shocked at the huge police presence manning roadblocks to stop people entering and leaving Auckland City without good reason and controlling the huge volume of people waiting for COVID testing. Most of them were clueless,
Back to the Future: Jacinda’s Adventures in Lockdown
Another way in which we know that ‘moderate’ and ‘conservative’ Jacinda Ardern is really a figure of the hard left is her disregard for the rule of law in her handling of the COVID ‘crisis’. It doesn’t seem to have concerned her that the first lockdown had no basis
Wild Goose Chases and the Blame Game Used to Hide the True Picture
Have a care for Chris Hipkins. He’s in the hot seat at the moment because the ‘COVID Queen’ Jacinda Ardern can’t ever be seen to deliver bad news, so it’s up to poor old ‘Chippy’. And there has been plenty of bad news of late. The virus
Sheriff Collins and the FRINGE Gang.
Information Satire BILLY THE KID: OUTLAW BILLY THE KID, (Billy Te Kahika) of the FRINGE GANG pre-empted the RED QUEEN’S announcement about us all being lasso’d up again by about three weeks. How did he know? The RODEO is going full tilt folks. That quill-dipper at

Really? Announcing Pakuranga College had a case when it didn’t is a pretty massive mistake. https://t.co/9FIhnKQNYA — Simeon Brown (@SimeonBrownMP) August 14, 2020
COVID Coincidence or Dishonesty?
The Prime Minister, the Government and the Director-General of Health would have us believe that last week’s announcement about masks and the Director General’s very public COVID test were just a coincidence and had nothing at all to do with the outbreak in South Auckland. To quote

The Danger Is Not the Virus – It Is Ardern
We now find out there is every chance we have been locked down again because Ardern didn’t act hard and early with regard to testing of those working at the border. According to Michael Morrah from Newshub, as of a week ago, nearly two-thirds of Auckland’s COVID-
Party Slogans that Backfired Spectacularly
Anyone else recognise Labour’s admission of failure in their transition from their 2017 election slogan of “Let’s Do This” to the limp wristed 2020 slogan “Let’s Keep Moving”? Given Labour didn’t keep their 2017 campaign promises this is very funny indeed. Does anyone know where they
