  • Hard News: New Old Left?,

    @webweaver i am right there with you

    listening to matt marcaten and the chris trotter on the radio about the hobbit stuff made me wish that somebody could be left and tied into 'it's a class warfare issue' type discussion

  • Hard News: New Old Left?,

    That's all very well, but if it takes 1 or 2% off the Greens vote and the Greens don't make into Parliament because of that, it counts for me as a disaster.

    that's what everyone used to say about voting greens instead of labour

    Well voting alliance back then
    and then alliance diasseaoed and we had greens as our option if we wanted to pull labour left

    did that ever work tho?

  • Hard News: A few (more) words on The Hobbit,

    who thinks we should try and have a screening of the hobbit?
    in auckland, wellington and ChCh
    if Russell starts asking now it might happen?
    and maybe the money could go toward www.humans.org.nz ?

  • Hard News: Anatomy of a Shambles,

    if i'm correct on radionz simon whipp said he wants the law to change in nz so actors can collectively bargain

    so isn't that also saying what he was asking for was as peter jackson said illegal to do?

    the state housing thing
    i always assumed if kids had grown up & were working then you had to advise of the change in income to the house and then you get moved to a smaller house/unit.

    maybe that's council housing?

    the big crowd was always going to be in wellington tho, it's where the films are based, and everyone is 1 degree of separation from peter jackson

    well from the photos coming in from wellington it doesn't look very anti union.

    to be honest i really think loads of people just want the film made in nz.
    I'd liken going to the LOTR film openings in wellington as the film equivalent of attending an all black game.

    This is probably a case where there needs to be one union for all workers in the film industry.

    but what if they don't want to be in the same union?

    actors don't even have to all be in the same union, or any union
    I think freedom of choice is kind of important for everyone
