Remember that time when the previous government of NZ produced an answer to the issue of diurnal load balancing of NZ’s electricity network, in the form of a massive hydroelectric battery…
… and then the new Government cancelled it before complaining that Huntly made dirty power as propaganda?

“NT Health Minister Steve Edgington said the government was barring the treatment for under 18s, saying children should be safe from “dangerous ideologically driven practices”.”
So, at least they’re openly stating these moves are political in nature now. I guess that makes it a federal court issue.

And also, if people really didn’t “understand the plan” (they do!), then perhaps it shouldn’t have been one that looked at everything you said in pre-election debates and said “Yeah, nah. Let’s do the opposite.”
Dude your plan is not complicated. People understand your plan. They also understand it hasn’t worked because, stay with me here, it was a bad plan. If we’re talking about understanding here I don’t think ‘people’ are the ones suffering from a lack of it.

One huge eyeopener for me has been how many people apparently believe everyone else would excuse sex trafficking if someone they liked committed it
"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did? Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

This a regular issue in the Cheapside area of the 'small' welsh market town of Bridgend also, which during WW2 was connected to part of a massive ordinance factory complex identified by the Luftwaffe as a strategic target.

A brief reminder that war sucks.
Eighty years after the end of the war, a World War II bomb is being defused in Kassel today. 2,500 people had to evacuate the district within minutes.
In cities with large arms industries, this happens on average once a week.
For 80 years!

Where are they going to? 58% of migrant departures of New Zealand citizens went to Australia. Going to a country with Fair Pay Agreements, a growing economy, low energy prices, and a capital gains taxation system. For some reason that doesn’t seem to so be unpopular.
