Hard News: That page doesn't exist ..., in reply to Hebe,
whether John Key would have been able to get where he is today without the help the state gave him and his family, likewise Paula Bennett.
Sorry Hebe ,that page doesn't exist. For this lack of empathy is so cold They must have always had help. How both of them can stand up there together as one .... just horrible.

Yes, I was expressing sarcasm at the view (widely held in some circles).
I got ya. Sad too is an email gets completely ignored and I remember that I am supposed to get a response within 3 weeks . Still waiting to hear from Judith Collins. This Government just ignores what it doesn't want to hear ,has a team to feed misinformation, has no facts to back up anything they say, and plainly just has no empathy and what is expressed is carefully stage managed bullshit.
Anyone else would have been better than Key Inc and really we need to email the likes of Peter Dunne, and the Maori party constantly, because Key Inc is pointless. Remember, Peter Dunne wants to save TVNZ 7.He could be the camel. -
260 -78= 182 houses to find. Rent will increase. The goalposts will shift until private developers create a Ghetto Trailer Park because that will be all that is affordable.

78 that Housing New Zealand will own,
So will the rents be market rents? They will have to be, and the argument will be, "necessary to get best value for all the houses being sold."

0800 calls can be free depending on whether the account holder wants to pick up the tab or not.
Which is no doubt why WINZ insist on land lines. A friend up North has this difficulty. He must be available for work ,therefore a landline apparently. Landlines can cost over $500 to connect at the exchange. I've had another friend do that.
I just fired off an email to Heatley. No doubt like most National MPs, I wont get a response. Heatley, who thought $1000 worth of wine should be on the taxpayers bill.Heatley,who Key had no idea where he was.
Next up, Welfare this afternoon. -
Capture: Roamin' Holiday, in reply to Jackie Clark,
I recognise that seat.
She could go back to retrieve it. I guess these guys stayed also.
(Wondered how long until you noticed ;) -

I think looser trousers are the way to go! Less conducive to bumble-panic. ;-)
Or a skirt ;)
Here bumble looks like he's going in (and he did) -
Capture: EQNZ Remembrance, in reply to Lilith __,
A couple of weeks ago a bumblebee flew up my trouser-leg and got stuck. It stung (or possibly bit -- I'm told they don't sting) twice and I got these enormous red welts on my calf. I don't blame the bumble, but it's made me a little wary of them!
Lesson learnt, wear tighter trousers ;) It's the wasp I am a bit weary of .
This bumble might give you an idea of what bit hurt you though. -
