HAIRY NIPS! #NZvENG

The 'Stokes Show' aka 3rd test between #NZvENG at Trent Bridge continues into the 5th day. It appears cricket has faded into the background while the story should be about a superb, if battered, NZ team could take a series win.

"'But I'm comfortable with the government's programme, and the amount of investment that we've put into housing,' he said." Unware but comfortable, wealthy and sorted, entitled to entitlements, while everyone else is negative, wet, whiny and inward looking. #NZPol

The comments on this vid... Compare Williamson who put team first vs Stokes who appears to be making this final test all himself.

There will be a bit of a wait for the OIA to come back, but am genuinely curious to get to the bottom of this -- does anyone out there have candidates for companies (ie a unicorn based on science that began in New Zealand) that Luxon might have been thinking of?

Spark.

Apparently the pressure is on us given we failed to make 500 😅 Meanwhile Eng are "roaring back" with 213-2. #NZvENG

I remember June 24, 2016. The streets were covered in rubbish. The worst people in Britain thought they'd won so there was this horrible threatening atmosphere. Anyway the important thing is we blamed the left for it

Local publishers cry foul over education contracts

Luxon: "New Zealanders who do the right thing by working hard, saving up and investing deserve a Government that backs them - not to be punished with more taxes that hit their investments and make them worse off." "Especially the tobacco industry and landlords", he did not add.

The two fuckwits in charge of our economy don’t have any credence to criticise another party’s policy. Look at what they’ve done!

Greens tax policy is “economic lunacy”, but pissing away $700 m on no boats is sound economic stewardship. Fuck off Luxon. You fuckers are so desperate. www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

Shameless corporate shilling. He identifies with the donor, not the club, not the region, not the mana.

A mass killing, bodies burnt and a 'conspiracy of silence': an outback massacre is not forgotten

Wellington 60–5 Waikato Anything else sadly immaterial

Good to see the Luxon curse continues.

Been a long time since I've seen a rugby team play this well for an entire game, in pretty challenging conditions, against very good opposition. Honestly remarkable.

Fuck it is a good day to be a Wellingtonian

Cool - now bang on about this for the next 5 months.
