The season has kicked in once again, and first up for the Greens this year was Catherine Delahunty. She was joined by National’s Chris Tremain, Labour’s Grant Robertson and Act’s David Garret.
Should the government bail our Fisher & Paykel? Bootcamps for young offenders? These and many other questions are answered online at TVNZ OnDemand’s Back Benches. Have fun!

Yes, Phil, I have been nodding. After all, the next episode is tonight! Unfortunately I do not have the same amount of time to link to the world as you do. Would that I did!

Cath acquitted herself well, Nats looked a bit feeble. & very scripted.
I wish I’d made it to that one, might try for tonite.
Phil, some people do a lot of other stuff, as well as popping their thoughts up on ‘teh net’. You should try outdoors sometime, it’s really quite pleasant.

>>very scripted
Yeah, but National are in government. Those with power and responsibility must be careful with their words.
Those who are very far outside government can say any crazy thing that pops into their heads, the only objective being to get the resident seals clapping.

FYI Greens:
Who does you charter back here?
” An application to build a wind farm near Napier has been declined for the second time by the Environment Court because the site is spiritually significant to Maori.
The Hawke’s Bay-based powerline company Unison applied to add 34 turbines to 15 already approved for a site on Te Waka Range near Te Pohue, on the Napier-Taupo Road. …
Unison was poor at consultation and appeared to have approached iwi as an afterthought. “We’re not opposed to wind farms, we understand the need for renewable energy,” she said. “But not on this site. This is our sacred mountain. We are duty-bound to protect it.””

As much as I despise you with a passion for stealing from me and all the other tax payers who are working to pay for your selfish and bone idle lifestyle there is a small part of me that does respect you for your love of animals.

why have you not been passing on the detailed/linked warnings of the actuality/timing/casuses this econoclypse that i have been offering you..?
..since august 2006..
..in hindsight..
..don’t you really think you have done your green readers a disservice..?
..can’t you see that you had a responsibility to pass that on to your readers..?
..(cos’ nobody else was telling anyone..anything..)
..and that you have failed utterly in that responsibility..
..it has actually astonished me ..about you..and farrar at kiwiblog..
..how since i uttered/passed on those first warnings..
..you have both just chosen to ignore the overwhelming evidence i have constantly thrust in front of your eyes..
i mean..i can understand farrar ‘playing’ denial..on ideological grounds..
..but you..?
..do/did you not have the intellectual nous to be able to understand it all..?
..if not..um..!
..if you do have ‘nous’..w.t.f. happened..?
phil(whoar.co.nz)
