Yapping Media are too Dumb to Understand Trump
I’m guessing that Phil Quin just adores Tarantino movies. Tarantino’s movies too often pander to faddish pack-runners who are easily distracted by vacuous surface appearance.

Cancer… Still a Lottery
There is no doubt that this government has been shamed into funding more cancer treatments by the opposition. They promised that they would fund cancer drugs during their election campaign, but we all know how hollow those election promises were. Now, as a result of National’s excellent proposals on
Imitation is the Highest Form of Flattery
On the 28th of August, the BFD published my article National Follows in Trump’s Deregulation Footsteps where I made a connection between the National Party’s new policy to a new policy of the Republicans under President Donald Trump. The wets in the National party will hate me describing
A Government Like No Other
This government has to rank as the most inept, illogical and idiotic we have had the misfortune to endure. They sit in the House in Question Time like possums in the headlights. Unable to answer questions coherently, they are only saved from the equivalent of daily roadkill by the blatant
Getting to the Bottom of a Malfunctioning Bottom in Southland

Albert-Eden-Puketapapa Ward Candidates – Council Cathy Casey – City Vision If rottweilers came from Scotland, that would be Cathy Casey. Without a doubt,
A Preview of How Ardern’s Gun and Hate Speech Laws Will Play Out
If New Zealanders want to get an idea of how the COL’s gun control and “hate speech” laws will end up working in practice, then they only need to look at the similarly “progressive” US state of Oregon. The home of Bernie Sanders and Portlandia has the second-highest
Govt Embarrassed into Cancer Plan by National

A Rewrite of the Song Pretty Belinda…Comrade Jacinda
The other night, commenter Cadwallader mentioned a song from the past that he’d heard that day, and he said he was going crazy as the Comrade Princess’ name fitted too well with the words. That got me thinking as I vaguely remembered the song, and annoyingly I found myself
Setting the Record Straight
I would imagine that Judith Collins’s arm is currently being torn off by a lineup of publishers. Her book will be based on facts, not supposition or half-truths, and will be her opportunity to set the record straight away from the negative spin of the media and other
