For myself, I couldn’t think of anyone I’d rather rely on to see us through a fuel crunch than Nicola Willis and Shane Jones.

Things I’ve learned from apocalypse movies: #1 - Get rid of any teenagers in your family on day one. They’ll only disobey instructions soon and get you into a world of hurt.

Mr President, these Iranians that you’re negotiating with, are they in the room with you now?

Shane Jones telling lies? Who would have guessed? www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

Hey NActFirst, while no one can afford fuel the roads will be empty, so now’s the time to get on with building more of them!

Oh well played ASBBank. Hiding the “Log Off” button on your iPhone App kept me amused for ten minutes.

OFFS, the people who "designed" TicketMaster's processes should be charged with crimes against humanity, the developers who wrote their Apps should be drummed out of the IT industry, and any event manager who uses TicketMaster should be summarily fired.

Winston Peters is reminds us of the grumpy, racist, know-it-all old uncle that everyone seems to have had.

I’m quite happy for politicians to have a contest of ideas. I get incensed by the lying.

Nostradamus Peters: I predicted resignation of Fonterra CEO. Is this man ever wrong about anything? (Asking for a friend.)

Starting to think “Lord Luxon of Lampton Quay” has a fine ring to it.

Heather du Plessis-Allan: Do we owe our Covid conspiracy friends an apology? “Covid conspiracy” and “friends” don’t even belong in the same sentence.

Do we owe our Covid conspiracy friends an apology? - Heather du Plessis-Allan No. Saved you a click.

Tricky stuff, this oyster shucking.

Coalition of Corruption announces fuel rationing: Only utes and cars with retail value of more than $100,000 allowed petrol, only farmers, truckers and fishing fleet allowed diesel.

We need a Royal Commission into the ferry fiasco. As soon as the Coalition of Corruption are kicked out of government.

NZFirst calls for Royal Commission into why Royal Commissions can’t find anything to blame the previous Labour government for.

Herald: “Foreign buyers: Is there a shortage of $5m-plus homes in NZ?” No, you can have my place for $5 million.

Got to love that the Coalition of Corruption spent $14 million to confirm that Labour managed the pandemic almost faultlessly.

The only National Anthem I actually admire is the French one.

A couple of million to a Trump benefit should see them pardoned. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

My Twitter timeline is full of pix of young men looking as if they are constipated. I guess not enough roughage in their diets.

Mental health treatment has improved immeasurably in the past 70 years or so, but I do wonder if it was a mistake to stop locking up folk who believe that they talk with God.

Why don’t we offer Luxon his knighthood provided he pisses off before the end of the month?

Just because the USA can destroy a country doesn’t mean it should.

Interesting to watch politicians whose constituents are appalled by Trump and the things he says and does, trying to find a balance between sucking up to him in an attempt to keep their heads below the parapet and satisfying their constituents who want nothing less than to tell Trump to fuck off.

I guess Luxon phones himself every afternoon at 4pm to talk about his non-performance.

Watch out, Chris! Behind you !

One of the things I really like about New Zealand is that you can wear the same clothes to attend a wedding or a funeral.

The US doesn’t really want regime change in Iran, it just wants the Iranian leadership to do whatever the US and Israel tell them to do.

Government announces the green shoots will shoot very soon. Definitely before the election. Or die trying.

Here, Winston Peters, fixed it for you.

There’s a lesson in this - if you find cash in uour ceiling , don’t hand it in. www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

Man who named his son after a gun, gave his son a gun, surprised that his son shot ip a school. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/03/u...

So apparently Jesus isn’t able to decide for himself when to return to Earth, mankind has to create specific conditions for him to do so. So much for omnipotence.

So, Netanyahu is the real leader of the “Free World”, isn’t he?

Someone should explain to the fundamentalist Christian end of the world fans that the only way we’ll get a decent End of Times Apocalypse is if the Iranians have nuclear weapons.

The real upside for Americans who really want to experience military action - if you miss this war, another one will come along soon.

From Stuff: “Would you pay $55 for a coffee?” No. Saved you a click.

Apparently everyone needs to choose whether we’re on the side of a geriatric religious nutter on the one side and a genocidal maniac and a rapist pedophile on the other.

Well maybe Trump and Netanyahu could share the Nobel Peace Prize next year.

So the only real growth we’re seeing under the Coalition of Corruption is a 6.5% increase in the number of gang members in the past 12 months.

Trump is likely aiming to return Cuba to the people who ran it before Castro - the Mafia.

Ardern Derangement Syndrome gets a booster shot.

Great service - OneNZ announced $5 increase in Ultra Fast broadband yesterday, today I’m up and running on cheaper equivalent 2-degrees offering. I am just not taking price increases any more.

If they keep arresting pedophiles in the USA, it’ll be just a matter of time before most Republicans are in jail.

"Important" people giving insider information to a pedophile and sex trafficker - are we going to pretend that other well-positioned people aren't routinely passing insider information to very rich "friends".

I aways admire a man able to pull himself up by his father's bootstraps. www.thepress.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

New Zealand has shown slow, steady, and "troubling" decline in the corruption perception index score, falling from 91 in 2015 to 81 in 2025.
