I was surprised that while they were ok to leave the rape in, they weren't ok with Viserys being physically abusive towards his sister.
Instead they settled for his just being creepy and insane (which are both still accurate portrayals of his attributes in the books). -
Possibly Sir Terry Pratchett is a bit busy losing his mind :(

Hard News: The file-sharing bill, in reply to SHG,
Right-wing mouthpiece Idiot/Savant...
Seriously I'm not sure my irony gland can handle this so early in the morning.

Given how long it will take to actually send letters out, is there a provision that the "three months" has to be elapsed between receipt of the letters?

Obviously we’re all above quibbling, but shouldn’t “And slash weapons.” be “And slashing weapons.”?

Tower is already sniffing around, according to the article about the payout on Stuff.
But I'm sure we'll manage to socialise all the debt before we sell them off on the basis that Gummint shouldn't be in insurance. -
Umm, I am putting it here because I'm not sure where else.
If someone has a house with around a million bucks worth of original NZ art in it, which has been red stickered... what exactly do they need to do to try and stop that being lost to us forever when the bulldozers roll (potentially without warning)?

OnPoint: Everything has changed until 2014, in reply to Bart Janssen,
I thought we’d already figured out it was all due to the moon?
Don’t be silly, in this thread it’s all John Key’s fault.
I'm not ruling out the possibility that John Key controls the moon, obviously.
