  1. An interesting test for the track today , I wish them well .
  2. Now now stop twisting things you know I was talking about pre race day track gallops and the Ellerslie trials , the fact is you intimated jockeys weren't capable of thinking for themselves and weren't able to judge the state of a track hence the term crash test dummies .
  3. Ex Don Brash . As I write this I still can't believe this has happened to us. We hear of political interference happening overseas, but today Hobson's Pledge has been the target. Facebook has deleted all of our posts that sent supporters to submit on the Fast Track Approvals Bill including paid advertising we were running. At first our team thought there must have been an error and attempted to post again. It became clear that anytime we used the link to the Government website to make a submission on the Bill, Facebook either blocked us or removed the post minutes after it went up. As we were aware that the Māori Party were also promoting submitting on the Bill, we checked out one of their posts and found that there we could access the Government submissions page with no problem at all. This is discrimination and political interference. Will you stand with us against it? For a start Facebook should not be able to block links to the Government website and impede democratic engagement. They certainly shouldn't be able to pick and choose which organisation can help their supporters to access the submissions page. It is nearly impossible to reach an actual person at Facebook to ask what on earth is going on. Are they taking stances on all political issues? Or is this something an individual staff member has taken it upon themselves to do? Maybe it is simply that their systems are vulnerable to bad faith activists overwhelming them? We would love to know. We will be doing our best to follow up and ensure that this kind of thing doesn't continue to happen. Every New Zealander should be free to encourage submissions and indeed to submit. We would never dream of attempting to prevent Māori Party supporters from having their say. We live in a democracy! Don't let political interference get in the way of you having your say on the Fast Track Approvals Bill and opposing special rights for iwi when it comes to consultation and decision making. CLICK HERE FOR THE BANNED GOVT SUBMISSION PAGE! I cannot overstate how much of a political intrusion this is. Hobson's Pledge already experiences significant hostility from the media and we use emails and social media as a way to go around the patronising so-called fourth estate to reach New Zealanders. For our ability to use social media to be threatened is truly concerning. In today's online world, it is an attack on our right to freely engage in politics. I will keep you updated on where this goes. If there is any action we can all take, you can expect an email straight away.
  4. Have a read and then what happened next in following E Mail . I have received several emails asking what Elliot and I wrote on behalf of Hobson's Pledge in our submission on the Fast Track Approvals Bill. I thought you might be interested too! It is short and to the point and we will elaborate when we get a chance to speak to the select committee. Submission on the Fast-track Approvals Bill by the Hobson’s Pledge Trust The Hobson’s Pledge Trust was founded in 2016 to promote the fundamental principle that all New Zealanders have equal political rights, as acknowledged in Article III of the Treaty of Waitangi. We named the organisation after Governor Hobson, who is understood to have said, as each chief signed the Treaty, “He iwi tahi tatou” (“We are now one people”). We are convinced that acknowledging that equality of rights is the only way forward for a peaceful and harmonious New Zealand. From small beginnings, Hobson’s Pledge has grown to the point where some 130,000 people receive our regular emails. As an organisation, we take no position on the need for the Fast-track Approvals Bill. There is no doubt a wide range of strongly felt views on the Bill among our supporters. We respect the effort which the Bill makes to ensure that property rights are respected. But we are dismayed that the Bill gives a much greater priority to the rights of iwi than to the rights of other New Zealanders. The word “iwi” appears 56 times in the Bill, and the proposed four-person panels by which projects are to be evaluated are to include one person nominated by the relevant local authority and one person nominated by the relevant iwi. This apparent equivalence between local authorities and iwi authorities seems to us totally inappropriate, and is likely to result in the concerns of Maori New Zealanders being given much greater weight than the concerns of other New Zealanders. This not only causes us dismay: it also causes us surprise. During the election campaign, both the ACT Party and the New Zealand First Party made much of their commitment to equal citizenship. In the coalition agreements which both parties signed with the National Party in the process of forming a Government, there were numerous quite specific promises to eliminate the racial preferences which have crept into New Zealand law in recent years. The National Party’s constitution includes a specific commitment to “equal citizenship”, and of course it too was a party to the two coalition agreements which enabled the formation of the new Government. Clearly, in approving any new investment project under this Fast-track Approvals Bill Ministers must be mindful of the property rights of those New Zealanders who could be affected by the new project. But this principle should surely apply to all New Zealanders, whatever their ethnicity. As drafted, the Bill fails to acknowledge that principle. We wish to appear before the Committee to present this submission.
  5. That's actually a very insulting remark to make about jockeys and their ability to judge for themselves the condition of tracks , often we hear how horses have galloped on tracks the morning of race day or in Ellerslie's case recent trials were held to access the track , it's riders opinions from these events that are valued , I'm sure they don't go out blindly and just go hard to see who slips over first , they use their skills and judgement to control horses speed , if not comfortable they won't go hard , they are not crash test dummies they are skilled operators .
  6. Not sure about the USA not being the force they once were they still have a very powerful military and plenty of nukes but the lefty's are trying their best to weaken the USAs ability to inspire their troops and the free world , they don't seem to realize ultimately it's a choice , be a part of the free world or sink into a world dictated by dictators , China , Russia , North Korea , Iran, and plenty more on the cusp of dictatorships , the reality is stay strong for a free world or listen to the lefty's and sink into a world that doesn't allow independent thought or independent freedom .
  7. If this really hits the fan then any ones guess but Israel is quite capable of going it alone , they have nuclear weapons Iran doesn't and that's why the drama today was well signaled by Iran , I think today was a face saving move by Iran and hopefully the end of this chapter . The bottom line here this is basically a religious war/dispute and logic won't always apply .
  8. Chemo is the only reason I'm still here but as with 100% of cancer treatments they don't last , in time the cancer works around those treatments , the only way to stop cancer is to cut it out , not an option for me just look at racing yesterday Micheal Pitman he looks in great order he had bowel cancer the treatments and surgery have done a great job . The idea these days is to die with cancer not die because of cancer .
  9. Gruff I do what I must do , If I didn't have no5 or next up the flu jab I would be a dumb arse , I'm just protecting my impending investment , that's right you see I've run out of publicly funded health options , it's time to pay and prey, luckily there's a little in the piggy bank to cover the cost , a cost that my health insurance co is refusing to pay even though I am currently paying those bastards almost $100 a week ,. I have sent a letter of protest to their HQ lets see what happens .
  10. Ha Ha plenty of crazy stuff to pick from there and did you know according to the author bitcoin is a cia conspiracy.
  11. Selling the hill was the right move to fund this renovation , imagine if they had borrowed the $55 million . I suggest a little patience , wait and see where this goes, it seems Ellerslie's biggest crime is trying to bring racing and it's facility's into modern times.
  12. A couple of issues Gruff , In June 2020, the Sinopharm BIBP vaccine (BBIBP-CorV) was authorized for emergency use in China. On July 22, Chinese authorities started the emergency use of COVID-19 vaccines. , so they have used vaccines . And here's the big one , March 22, 2023, China has for the first time approved a Covid-19 vaccine based on mRNA technology, China’s new mRNA vaccine, developed by CSPC Pharmaceutical Group Ltd., based in the northern Chinese city of Shijiazhuang, was approved for emergency use by China’s health regulator Cancer yep baby boomers are now old, a bubble in society so it's only logical there will be a boom in health issues , something is going to knock us over
  13. Still here and about to have a perfectly chilled Stella , nothing better after a hard days thinking and in fact it will probably be 3 Stellas and possibly a Chevas Regal (18) to finish with and of course listen to James Reyne , any day above ground .
  14. Holmes I can remember him sweating up large on the screen many years ago, I'LL bet he would have loved Big Pharma today if he was still around , any way It's my arm that's a little sore not my gut and in my case the jab is just one of a few things I must do , next the flu jab in 2 weeks , then a ticker check up(don't want to waste money) and then the big one, it seems if I want to be here for next Christmas money is required , Big Pharma looks pretty good to me at the moment .
  15. Number 5 all done Gruff , a steady flow of clients happy to roll up their sleeves and did you know you can get the covid jab and the flu jab at the same time .
  16. A teenager out of how many 100s of millions ? and inconclusive as well .
  17. Published online 2023 Feb 28 The Use of Ivermectin in the Treatment of COVID-19 . Ivermectin was tested in a randomised study in Columbia at a dose of 300 μg per kilogram per day for 5 days, but there was no discernible benefit.3 In a second, related trial carried out at five separate US locations, even doses of 390 to 470 g per kilogram per day for 3 days did not have any discernible effects.4 Ivermectin has been the subject of extensive study worldwide, and the findings of significant clinical trials suggest that it has little to no effect on the development of early COVID-19. Even at dose levels ten times the advised dose, plasma total and unbound ivermectin levels do not approach the concentration resulting in 50% viral suppression, according to pharmacokinetic simulation models [2, 3].
  18. Well body's do a lot of living in that 2 weeks thousands of heart beats (about 1.3 MILLION beats in 14 days) so as we all know anything can go wrong at anytime no matter how old you are .
  19. Just keep paying those taxes Gruff so I can roll up my sleeve on Monday morning 10.am (booked it Friday) for that very valuable covid vax , next up 2 weeks later the flu jab followed by a ticker check up and then a couple of weeks later its time to make big pharma really happy , hell big pharma should give me a discount on this new one , I am a super customer
  20. ACT at it again , BRILLIANT . EX ACT E MAIL I am pleased to announce the Government is restoring the rights of communities to determine for themselves whether to introduce Māori wards. Labour attempted to force undemocratic Māori wards on communities that do not want them. They removed New Zealanders’ democratic voting rights because they believed voters couldn’t be relied on to vote the right way. ACT has always said the decision of whether councils should establish Māori wards ought to lie with the communities themselves, not Wellington. The legislation the Government is introducing will mean councils that have established Māori wards since 2020 without a referendum can disestablish them. If they don’t do this, citizens will be able to vote on them at the next local body election in 2025. And as laid out in ACT’s coalition agreement with National, at least five per cent of voters will be able to require a local referendum on the establishment of a Māori ward on an ongoing basis. On 1 News last week, Maiki Sherman tried to claim ACT wouldn't get our way on this issue. But she was caught out by not checking her sources – a good lesson for someone recently promoted to political editor. The consequence of Labour’s push for co-governance is that which group you belong to is more important than the dignity inherent in every individual person. That there should be different laws for different groups, and you should be treated differently based upon who your ancestors were. These values are anathema to a democratic society. As in many areas, ACT has been a strong voice in favour of going further and faster to immediately restore democracy to our local communities.
  21. World Health is at an all time low , justify that statement it's complete rubbish and of course most bad health in the developed world stems from a population that is living longer thanks to, you guessed it Big Ph
  22. Sorry but I don't accept this is still experimental 99+ million jabed that's way past experimental .
  23. This inquiry does not include key points of concern , As far as I am aware the new terms and conditions of the new R/C haven't been announced yet . Submissions will be open until 24 March 2024. Public consultation – NZ Royal Commission COVID-19
  24. Wrong Hamas is losing , lost , but they have 1.5 million Palestinian human shields, Hamas was elected to govern those shields and 100plus hostages and then they have thousands of protesters around the world giving them moral support for their crimes against humanity, 1200 Israelis massacred gunned down, raped , burnt alive , how could Israil possibly be expected to forgive such barbaric behavior Hamis must be given the punishment they deserve .
