Excitement building...

"Who are Posh and Becks, or did he just sneeze?"

Clarke is overwhemed by the excitement of the impending proceedings.

Well that's that then [updated]

Rodney gone by lunchtime. Who would have thought? Maybe a tick for ACT in November?

The Nats should now get the message loud and clear that not enough is done to put New Zealand back onto an even fiscal keel. Will they butter up Don, ever ready to stab him in the back later down the track, or continue their tango to apartheid with the racist elite?

Puts Winnie on the backburner. Unfortunate, I was looking forward to him livening up the bear pit.

[update]
As suspected, the knives are already out for Don...

an immediate response from one of National's allies - United Future leader Peter Dunne said most voters would be "horrified" at the thought of a Don Brash-led ACT forcing National to the Right.

"Today the reality of what will be at stake in the November 26 election has been spelt out clearly for all New Zealanders - and it should scare them," Dunne said.

"National will lead the next government. Labour is in meltdown and out of the game.

"[Prime Minister] John Key will be horrified at the prospect of being dragged to the right."

The Nats are three years overdue for being dragged hard right to do what is needed.

Lessening their pain

I'm not sure of the legalities around spamming but I'm sure...

Fresh on the heels of Phil Gaffe's 'I do not know who stuck the signs up, but no one will notice' illegal road signage, we have another group willing to break the law to get their message across. No doubt a recent product of insidious leftard indoctrination at school, being better than the law.

advocates spamming the group with texts and YouTube links to the Chinese National Anthem and songs such as I think I'm Turning Japanese

Yes, one day those today ardently concerned about about such pamphlets, willing to break the current law, might realise the actual horrors of war that the older generation endured so that they could enjoy their freedom today.

My grandfather died from war-related injuries when my dad was eight. It's sad to think that this intolerance still exists two generations on

There are those of that generation, along with their families, still alive today for whom rightly any form of fraternising with peoples from certain Asian or Germanic countries will be forever viewed with total disgust and never be condoned to their dying days. And that is why they will turn out in droves today, this day of remembrance.

War is an ugly business and it will take more than two generations to lessen their pain.

More Easter fun

The Easter entertainment has arrived

The Queen could visit New Zealand for the Rugby World Cup if Prime Minister John Key can strike a deal with Labour

Your ball, Phil Gaffe.

Let the Easter entertainment begin.

ps Happy Easter to all

Priceless...

"The Government's contribution allows us to be competitive on the world stage," Mr Dalton said.

Another socialist with both fists in my wallet.

At least we now know where Monday's share of the $300M borrowed this week went in these dire economic times. Priceless.

Some things are not to be outsourced

A war of words has erupted over moves by Christchurch RSA bosses to defy a national directive to buy Chinese-produced Anzac Day poppies from next year.

Good on ChCh RSA for taking the stand. One I fully support. As promised, this blogger has not undertaken renewal of his RSA membership this year over this matter. I wonder how many other members have taken similar action.

Some matters military are really above buying from the lowest bidder.

A milestone passed...

Sometime yesterday this site passed 100000 hits. Dear Readers, might have been slow compared to others at times, but obviously you keep returning for more.

All on the interweb, without any new-fangled things like twatter or faceplant feeds or guest posts. Who gives a toss about that crap, I haven't got the time to waste. And anyway, I have to find my glasses to read texts on the cellphone.

All done without a specific axe to grind, except for starters, fecking useless lying politicians, thieving local government bureaucrats, unions and natives with arms outstretched for my taxes.

Ta. Hopefully I can keep calling it as I see it...

Bloody hypocrites!

Wanganui district councillors are split over whether or not God has any place around their council table

I'd be willing to be bet the same would-be-secular local government doff their caps, tug their forelocks and kowtow to the local heathens practicing and preaching their own 'cultured' brand of witchcraft.

Even encourages the culturing of the unwashed via heathen prayers at the start of council proceedings. You see, apparently that is not offensive, it is a treasure under clause 67854321 of that treaty. And you will pay for that culture indoctrination via your taxes.

Bloody hypocrites!

Sleep-walking to an utter disaster

Fancy another three years of Pinko-Lite's Smile and Wave doing nothing?

More of being ever afraid of really taking the scythe to the bloated public service. Of breaking public service and education unions along with their affiliations for legalised extortion with political parties Of reigning in the welfare bludgers creaming it on your tax dollar.

With numbers like the TV3 poll last night slaying the gaggle of gays and unionists, it is exactly
what New Zealand is sleepwalking to in November. Along with the unholy alliance with the racist separatists and their perverted sense of entitlement.

A truly right conservative offering is lacking, the electorate is paralysed and alseep. ACT is buggered, one-trick pony Rodders is about to be ousted. Thinking of the hippies over at the tree-huggers? Forget them, they are wolves in sheep's clothing, being out and out communists.

Unless you want a disaster New Zealand, complete with continuing to support the hundreds of thousands of welfare bludgers, just keep on keeping on. Vote in the nice Mr Key again, or even tick Caretaker Phil, just vote for more of the same. At least a vote for Winnie might rouse some from their sleep, though I suspect he too will change tack when the track gets hard.

An utter disaster is unfolding and we are in a trance.

BBQ anyone???

An icy blast sweeps the country. Liarbour country that is.

Definitely not the weather for a BBQ. Not even a late autumn one, which I fear no-one wants to attend, let alone provide the venue.

An early Easter act

The Government is pouring billions of dollars of good money – taxpayers' money – into failing businesses like South Canterbury Finance and AMI Insurance. It should nationalise AMI and send the people who supposedly ran the company to a tent camp in a Canterbury pine plantation for the winter.

they are creaming it ... [while] taxpayer dollars get siphoned off in billions to save failing businesses

The days of pensioners eating pet food will be over the day we walk back through the doors of Parliament

Lazarus delivers a few home truths and is welcomed with open arms.

Welcome back, it has been a bloody long three years without you

The Easter Bunny rises early, to thunderous applause from his audience.

Friday Nite Pussy

As always, the wireless connection for Friday Fun is down. But, hey, this corner of the laptop is hot. And I am seriously cute...

Is there any other way to describe work?

Work is a benefit, business is the benefactor and workers are merely the beneficiaries. Workers should be grateful for a job; a job is a privilege; employers should be lauded for the contribution they make to growing economic wealth.

anyone who joins or seeks to organise a union as disloyal, a wrecker or an ingrate, throwing charity back in the face of the giver ... paints the union as an outsider, an interferer in a relationship based on charity

Some would suggest otherwise. Something along the lines of 'an exchange of labour, with the ever present threat of union thuggery should you not agree, to be milked for all it is worth'.

As I said is there any other way to describe work?

QoTD: Trawling the dregs of the sewer

And just because a law is passed to “normalise” an immoral practice doesn’t make that practice any more moral.

All it does is show how societal standards have slipped further into the sewer.

Yes, legislation does not change morality.
