The latest BS from Climatard HQ

Hydroclimate whiplash – a term for the phenomenon of savage seasonal swings between catastrophic rain and sapping drought – is increasing, fast.

WTF???

Ever desparate to insert the planet is boiling or whatever is the latest religion to garner more $$$$ that BS takes the cake.

Driven by an atmosphere stoked hotter by the burning of fossil fuels, the whiplash is amplifying flash-floods, wildfires, landslides and disease outbreaks

Absolute BS!

Meanwhile, some current takeaways from Kalifornia:

Take a closer look at the pictures of the 'burbs.  A number of metal and concrete tile roofed properties appear to have survived.  The ones that incinerated more than likely had typically constructed to code tar soaked asphalt shingles on plywood with open eaves all tinder dry awaiting an ignition source.  Change the building code to outlaw such construction.  (maybe that's why the dingos across the ditch favour metal roofed sheds, on concrete slabs without eaves, in bushfire regions)

We've moved into a La Nina (or is it the other one? - can never remember).  Anyway the general theme is that the western Pacific / Indian / Atlantic Oceans will get all the rain for the next few years.  Hence the eastern sides of those same water bodies are in a prolonged drought.  Somewhere within the next nine years it will cyclically reverse and the opposite will occur where eastern Africa is as usual drought ravaged.

As for the downpours - anyone remember that undersea volcano that dumped half the Pacific into the upper atmosphere a couple of weekends or so ago.  Well all that water has to eventually come down.  It was well predicted to be an issue for 2-5 years!

Climatards, life goes on.  The source of our climate will rise tomorrow morning and all will be well.  You'll get your daily dose of cosmic radiation to keep you cosy as the heat of the fires fades without fuel load, albeit reduced by a big cloud of Sulphur Dioxide in parts of Kalifornia.  You're maybe good for another 30 years or so.

Not one dollar of mine or yours will change what that big yellow nuclear fusion reactor in the sky does to our puny planet.  After all this planet has endured 4,500 million years without any adverse effects.

Mr Luxon: A question for you

Have just sent in my submission on the Treaty of Waitangi Bill.  Easily done and submitted.  Was surprisingly in the common language of New Zealand, namely English, except as usual for the website landing page.  Not one word of pidgin seen during the process.

However the 'do-not-reply' email noting receipt of said submission opened with a 'Kia ora'.  The rest of that email is in English without further pidgin insertions.  

I fear the public servant (a nameless, genderless scribe named as 'The Office of the Clerk') issuing such an email has taken it upon themselves to show their bias to those who submit on such matters.

That aside, I should be thankful that the other often-named governmental scribe, a 'nga mihi' has not penned the reply.  Again, still have not worked out whether that one is a he/she or it.

Mr. Luxon, why are government departments still allowed to presume the the recipient understands or cares about any other language than the King's English?  

All government missives should be in English other than where specifically requested or pertinent to the topic being discussed.

A small step in the right direction

in the news...

The PM will not attend the Waitangi shenanigans.

Baby steps.

But I'd be ever watchful of his token native, one Mr. Potaka.  In my opinion one that speaks and acts like a snake in the grass.  Still, the man of the moment, ACT leader Mr. Seymour will attend to watch the Navy do their thing on the lawn.  His mere presence should further rile the natives are their fast drying troughs are emptied. 

Anyway, could I dare to dream that Luxon also skips next year's political opener at Ratana.  Seems to be a big thing necessary for mucho vote buying with koha (bribes) and selling the rest of New Zealand down river.

Oh dear. Harden up!

allegations made against him of sexually inappropriate conduct came from a “handful of middle-class women of a certain age” 

The cancellation of Gregg Wallace, ex MasterChef and various other shows,  is now fully under way as he doubles down and digs a bigger hole.

Others are distancing themselves from previous endorsements as the said harridans continue full flight.

He remains a recalitrant specimen ever willing to speak his mind.  I admire him for that.  Should the allegations and smears be proven in the future, that's a different matter.

“My first reaction was just, ‘Keep digging, Gregg. Keep digging’ because this shows the arrogance of a man who has zero introspection or self-awareness.

Guess he will never work or be in the public eye again.  A pale white man's man will never do in today's world of inclusivity and diversity of wokism.

An aside, being of certain age myself, I too am guilty of being of a similar mindset as the current cancellee.  Such commentary and actions were commonplace experiences in my earlier days.  They remain so.  

But maybe not so much these days, probably because of long held views and utterances, I rarely get invited to leave the reservation to converse with 'women of a certain age'.

"Long live freedom. Damn it!"

The best video one might see on such matters:

Exactly what is required as bare minimum in New Zealand.

MSM lies continue apace talking up the game

An aerial picture was given today of the protesting natives and sundry supporters next to Trevor's playground in front of The House. (flogged from NZ Herald.  Peak walkabout they'd have you believe.

Some pesky details (via Google earth).

A maximum forecourt area of about 120m x 35m give or take a few square metres like the grass and trees being partially populated with rabble.  4200m2 max.

A person (smallish adult, not typical of the rampant adult obesity apparent in many other pictures) is about 0.5m x 0.3m in plan view.  0.15m2 per person.

4200m2 divided by 0.15m2 allows for a maximum of 28,000 persons in that area.  All jammed in like sardines without room to fart!

Certainly nowhere near the estimates of 55,000 that the MSM would have you believe.

Luxon - time for you to man up!

Mr Luxon, today is the day for you to man up and lead the country.

No amount of platitudes will do.  Time to put the errant natives in their place.  Tell them there is no sovereignity on the table, no co-governance or partnerships.  As well as zero principles.

Middle New Zealand is watching you closely for you to do the right thing.

"Not the right kind"

On Monday we witnessed deluded natives on walkabout being given escort throughout the Queen City courtesy of Mr Plod.  Even closed the Harbour Bridge during peak traffic.  Working stiffs paying for the walkabout were warned that their working day was to be interrupted.  All followed by despicable outbursts in Parliament on Tuesday with stoneage theatrics.

Today, Saturday, we witnessed the self-apponted Bishop and his merry band of motorcyclists hold up traffic for a short time on the Southern Motorway en-route into JafaLand.  A pisstake on the weeks events as the good Bishop supports the proper New Zealand flag and does a decent haka.

Police will be taking enforcement action after hundreds gathered for an “unlawful and extremely irresponsible” convoy down an Auckland motorway.

Mr Plod has later today decided they are "not the right kind" and will be charged.

Really?

Well done!

In the House today, David Seymour was subjected to all manner of vitriol from various people, but firmly stood his ground delivering in as is his manner, with reasoned and logical arguments.  All without the theatrics.

Well done David!

Euthanasia looms large

Good news.  The #1 racist in the House (supposedly he is 'the right kind of the Maori') dared to call a fellow member a liar.  Failed to apologise and was ejected forthwith.

TPM then spoke of "euthanasing the treaty". 

That cannot come soon enough.

"a very delicate subject"

Natives are on a walkabout throughout the country worried about the possible cessation of their gravy train.  Even the legal beagles have seen fit to complain as their line of arguments might disappear in the near term.

A very delicate subject indeed as the flak increases over the target.

I look forward to the long overdue conversation.

Upcoming turkey shoot in the Far North

The 13 councillors voted unanimously, reaffirming a decision they made in May to continue with their Māori ward for the October 2025 local elections

... and then doubled down to continue waste ratepayer funds.

they pushed back against what Cr Hilda Halkyard-Harawira labelled simply Government efforts to remove Māori from local government with the council having to poll people about this decision to keep the ward

We will soon see what the rest of the electorate thinks of such decisions as turkeys vote for Christmas.

Luxon finally gets off the fence!

the Crown is sovereign

and

the position is very clear, 

Māori ceded sovereignty to the Crown

 

At last, a New Zealand Prime Minister states the obvious.

Now lets watch the screams from all and sundry as the heat is applied.  All manner of hangers on, including activist judiciary, deep in the racist corruption that has plagued New Zealand since the Waitangi Tribunal was invented.

One hopes that Luxon has the cojones to stand this ground.  I think not, soon to be a one-term manager, a he speaks with a forked tongue dependent on the audience, once again as witnessed by this weeks visit to the Huntly truckie in Mahutaland.

There's truth in that

The Waitangi Tribunal has slammed the Treaty Principles Bill as ‘unfair, discriminatory’ and will ‘belie’ the partnership between Māori and the Crown 

"belie" - to show something to be false

A partnership?  Now there's a lie, often cited by those dining large on the taxpayer dime, which is yet to be proven to be anything but a falsehood.

  

Enjoyable outcomes await...

Mr Aardvark has once again been poking things of import.

Eventually the SWDC's drawbridge will be dragged down and the shutters pried open by the voice of public outrage.

I notice that, faced with the seemingly tireless onslaught of inconvenient facts and evidence being posted by me on a regular basis, they've even hired a new communications officer to try and spin their way out of the hole they're in.

Fat chance.

You can't "spin" this sort of thing away. I don't make hollow allegations and everything I present is backed up with hard evidence. For the SWDC, the only way out of this hole is to do your damned jobs properly without favour, bias or prejudice and I seen no sign of that happening at all in that building.

They haven't even learned that if you poke a bear (such as myself) with a stick, the outcome may not be something you enjoy.

Let the games continue!

Am a daily Aardvark long-time lurker and as ever, time to stock up on the popcorn.
