  The Ministry of Health has been quietly shrunk and is now operating more as a business model Health NZ than a Ministry for the Public Health of NZers.

  Ryall is full of shit. My friend who is a specialist at AK Hospital is now doing two peoples work, with no time for lunch break and reductions in funding for the dept she works in. He is manipulating figures which the Herald has questioned but which he just dismisses.

  Oh al'right just cos you asked.
  The Cathedral was in the middle of restoration but it is so vast, much was still available to visit. We were also in the walled city to celebrate orientation week, great fun, people and music.

  Australia is exactly the opposite, has the highest rate of Mum and Dad investors in their local stockmarket in the world because they have compulsory super savings.

  And compulsory voting and but, really high power bills now it's all privatised. Friends in Melbourne said their bill skyrocketed as we know will happen here.

  I’d suggest that Labour should be working with the other opposition parties to put together a plan to acquire these firms back for the NZ people:

  Opposition parties and Grey power are getting involved as Peters suggested will happen.
  Saw this in Harold this morning.
