No Punches Pulled

Auckland mayor Wayne Brown has declared war on coneland. It’s long overdue and a shocking indictment on the government which has passively allowed this farcical situation to arise.

I’m cheering on the legitimate legal assaults on Trump whose public office term was both a stain on American history and an indictment on democracy, despite its accepted shortcomings.

There’s no doubt Parliament represents a true cross-section of society, rather than being an elitist institution of our finest minds as some idealists might wish. So at one end of the spectrum over the years, there’s been some truly ghastly buggers in the House, who somehow have made it there, albeit inevitably coming a cropper.

The costly furore over amalgamating TVNZ and Radio NZ is specially amusing for me.
