You’re Fired! (Words Never Spoken)

In General Debate on Sunday Mick le said: […] She didn’t fire Haworth; he resigned. In fact, she has never fired anyone: they have either resigned or been moved aside. And there have been many scandals and sackable offences over the last 24months of the CoLs tenure. What if Jacinda

International Speculation: Ardern will Resign

The world watched their media darling fall from grace into a quagmire of speculation about what she knew when she knew it, and if she didn’t know – why didn’t she? Ardern doesn’t look good from any angle. Nigel Haworth’s head rolled when he was caught out

Face of the Day

Today’s face of the day was worried that his PM was being defamed and did all he could to deflect from the hard questions about Ardern’s accountability and honesty. He said that there was Aroha for the person who had made the accusation and then went on to

Are Tasmania’s Tranny Laws Going Back in the Closet?
