You need to be enrolled by midnight Sunday 25 October.

Oh ffs.

Give people a goddamn reason to vote for you, dammit!

A quote from the article, lest it look like I’ve exaggerated:

“We remind the Governor to stay in her New Zealand lane and stick to domestic monetary policy. That would have been the advice of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade if the Governor had sought its advice, which she did not."

“Nobody asked for my opinion, but I’m giving it anyway, and giving it firmly, to a woman with whom I disagree and wish to see silenced”, says old man. Again.

I wouldn’t mind if the funding were going into bringing some of the roads that already exist up to scratch. At least then it may reduce accidents and repay itself somewhat.

Might even add some cycleways while they’re at it, enabling meaningful bike commute options and reducing health spend.

Ok. This needs to stop now. Apparently this game might have caught the imagination.

Also…

…no… no! I have to stop!

All Backstreet, no Boys.

All Crowded, no House.

The dark irony is that the blockers ban was pushed partly under the rationale that they should only be available through the research Cass demanded.

All pearl, no jam.

Eyewitnesses unsure of the flavour of missing jam. May have been “fruit” of some description.
