Good skilled counselling, with a professional you feel comfortable with, can help with the stresses and anxieties of being human.

Rosemary, those are big topics and so many documents. But this is the first I have seen about a consultation process. Perhaps they hope nobody will respond and that will be taken as assent for everything they are planning.

Scary stuff. No service or NGO is safe. Will have negative consequences on NZers.

Just went with an out of towner to see this exhibition. Unfortunately it closed two days ago. Yet the other one with the plastic giants and artificial wounds had a huge queue.

Hard News: Campbell Live: A Disturbance…, in reply to izogi,
I agree. Seems logical that someone who has the pulling power of 300,000 viewers nightly and considerable personal loyalty would be an attractive brand for some commercial outfit, which is what TVNZ is now. I'm sure sponsors would line up too.

This family is angry about the end of Campbelllive. We were angry when TV7 finished too. I don't know about other NZers but I would guess that there are many other angry people out there too. So where will that collective anger go?

Hard News: The epitome of reason, in reply to Sacha,
NZ owns the land and the business rents. NZ owns the cows and the business rents. NZ owns the water and charges for it. And all the structures are rented by the business. Could all be owned by an SOE like Landcorp and so revenue goes back to NZ government at various stages of the operation. At the moment when the whole closed operation is owned offshore there is little revenue left for NZ at any stage..
