Am having trouble matching up the listing of latest posts with what is shown in each thread.

Probably best to put comments about this stuff in the other thread, so they get seen along…

They came first for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't…

Personally, I always wanted a dragon. (Teenagers, take note: declarations like this are an excellent tactic for messing with your school counsellor.)

It is a rights disaster in so many aspects – and most of these have until now had the full support of Labour. I'd be interested to know what exactly they are opposing now.

Nevertheless,…

First they came for the journalists...

And then they came for the yoof drinkers...

To steal Lyndon hood's line, this government can't even design a liquor control regime without trying to turn us into a police state.

I hope you're not planning on getting rid of the Public Address *beta* tag. It's had the longest most thorough Beta test cycle in history. ;-)

... who don't seem that fussed about other people's right to silence being flushed down the shitter. How soon we forget the media baying for blood (due process and civil rights be damned) when the Kahui investigation wasn't speedy enough for its liking.

And the bank employees, which makes this near and dear to my heart.

They've already come for the bank employees. Search warrants have always covered this information. What they're doing with production orders is backing away from the bank employees. They've decided that the powers they currently have over banks…
