Polity: Cold, calculated and cynical, in reply to Sacha,
So $7210.00 , 2000km from Christmas Is to Perth , $389.00 ,5000km from Perth to Auck. The Australian government are even profiting from the deportation.

John Key’s assurances
i.e., what he’s issued from his ass.
We have one piece of enlightenment thanks to Corrections Ray Smith Serco sacked

that deportees would be able to continue their appeals from New Zealand without disadvantage.
Don't forget they also sign to pay for their removal . Push 'em out, remove all rights, charge 'em. Nice.

My transition from Auckland to Far North has been rather easy this year as I’ve been working on it a while now. For me I’m home now. Stella the dog came home to the street she was born in so I feel her resting place is secure for a long time yet. My friend has found his place to stay and his creative streak has given me a place to call home. That’s not to show disregard for my inheriting part of the Family home in Auckland but I feel I left it a long time back.
The Doubtless Bay area has the beaches I can call home and I’m surrounded by native bush and all it’s treasures, along with the reminder of livestock that frequent the fields behind us. The ever changing sunsets that are there every night,just some more spectacular than others
So here are my pictures ( hat tip 7 Days) -
Polity: Saudi sheep: Misappropriating…, in reply to Ian Dalziel,
Cluster flock…
This is getting ridiculous. This Government are taking the piss and we get to pay.Everything has been designed for no responsibility which in turns allows all Ministers to keep passing the buck or just spout crap and the response more often than not in Parliament is "Labour did it 25 years ago ,so it perfectly good for us to do it now"
Well Labour may have had legit reasons for doing stuff 25 years ago when times were different, now it could be catastrophic. -
Polity: Hosking’s right about jobs, in reply to Joe Wylie,
So, let's give her a heads up. I'm keen if you are. Actually I'm willing right now :)

On further reflection, having the incumbent being mostly bean counters and liars , I'd suggest until an Mp shouts as much as Davis has, for the Media, issues in ChCh won't get the traction so rightfully needed. This "gotcha" driven type Media journalism seems to be the only way to get any sort of attention that I suspect would be sorely appreciated down there. We see more and more "I'm alright jack" shit with comments alone in the papers. It's horrid but it is Media driven so maybe something drastic down there might expose the Brownlee fiasco, then David Farrar may suggest an embarrassed government might pull finger.

Polity: Hosking’s right about jobs, in reply to Joe Wylie,
All I can say, (not being down there and family not in touch too much) I was glad to see Dr Megan Woods getting a chance in the reshuffle to try make a difference for y'all. I imagine that everyone down there including the mps (old and new) must carry a weight we up here don't understand at present. I do not however give Brownlee a pass because ,well, just because he can be a right .....

Polity: Hosking’s right about jobs, in reply to linger,
ok take that back then . I did look for a reference other than it being derogatory to Pygmies but obviously not diligent enough because I thought that wasn't like Joe to be so flippant. Sorry.
