We need to be discussing our falling exchange rate. This problem lies behind many of our economic problems. IMHO.

TVNZ piece on Tāmaki election interviewed Act and Nats candidates but not Labour, or any other. Nice one TVNZ. Are we surprised? Not at all.

ACT’s designated driver policy. It may now be ok to take money from your friends, but your insurance company may now consider your car being for business use, and expect you to change your policy accordingly.

Am I the only one that is concerned about the New World Club Card+? My concern started when I saw the very concerning privacy policy (see later...) Of course you need the app to get the very big in store discounts in New World And now you can no longer get fuel discounts at PakNSave without it 1/N

So 70% of people don’t want National, 95% of people don’t want ACT, and 90% of people don’t want NZF, yet they’re likely to win the next election. Maybe we do need to replace MMP with STV.

IMHO in football and rugby, reserves and substitutes should not be allowed to come onto the pitch to celebrate a goal or try. And in rugby, reserves should not be warming up behind the goal line.

The three government parties are campaigning as if they were the opposition. Negatively not positively. They know they’ve achieved nothing in 2 years, except to make things worse.

Reflecting on Trump’s meeting with the Japanese PM. The USA is talking about the Iranians in the same way that they talked about the Japanese in WW2. And that conflict was also about oil.
