Everything about politics
Ardern and Robertson are running a circus. I leave it to you to work out who is the ringmaster and who is the clown. Ardern warned beforehand to prepare for pain. She, of course, didn’t divulge just how much. As it turned out, for obvious reasons. If I’d
Dr Muriel Newman nzcpr.com In her pre-budget speech, the Prime Minister said, “There is no playbook for the recovery we are about to embark on. But nor do we need one. When it has come to COVID-19 we have carved a path based on our people, our
The gloves are off and the race is on to make up for all the time lost in fighting the virus foe. Ardern’s daily health announcement has now become her soap box to promote her party ahead of September’s election. If that is going to continue, Simon Bridges
National MP Michael Woodhouse described Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern as “Robert Muldoon with slogans and kindness” during the heat of a Parliamentary debate on Tuesday afternoon. Parliament was urgently debating the COVID-19 Public Health Response Bill 2020, which allows for alert level 2 to be put in place but
George The PM thinks she has done us a favour by allowing us to enter level two. She hasn’t. Her “team of five million” had already made that decision for her a week ago – and she knew it. We went hard and early. In fact, she has lost control

I don’t know about you, but most of the people I meet these days seem jubilant. They have either discovered the joys of working from home or else have been on six weeks’ ‘annual leave’, paid for by the government. “Never before in my life have I had six
Hon JUDITH COLLINS (National—Papakura): I don’t believe for a moment that this country went hard and fast. It is a typical communications phrase that is being seeded into just about every speech, every conversation from a Government MP. Hon Member: Prove it. Hon JUDITH COLLINS: I can prove
Phil Twyford is Labour’s reverse Midas. Everything he touches turns to great mountains of poos. His latest failure is the light rail to the airport folly. Another “flagship” policy of the Government and another broken promise from Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. The Government’s flagship infrastructure project has been
Ever since the Christchurch massacre, the Police have been operating in a doctrinaire and dictatorial fashion. We know that they used massive over-reach to grab as many guns as they could, and have treated their minister like he’s their lap dog. Earlier they announced that, despite disarming a
Warning Not Safe For Work – Foul Language Apparently it was a glitch on the Radio NZ stream…
Jacinda, your Government is beneath contempt. The lowest of the low. You are nothing more than a gang of bullies. You profess to care. You profess to be kind. You are fake. You are the worst Government of a lifetime. Some of your lot wouldn’t know the truth if
As the “princess” Jacinda Ardern prepares to remove her glass-slippered foot from our collective throat (if we promise to be good that is), it’s well to remember, and be grateful for, how she saved our lives by going hard and early: to Ratana, that is, then Fiji. At
I was recently sent a link to the Jacinda Ardern Fan Club on Facebook which is a private group. It was created on the 23 October 2019. What shocked me about it was that they will not tolerate any criticism of her actions even if you are a dyed in
