Crimes against humanity, what crimes. Trump would be more guilty of that than most. As I suspected you can't provide details of what you are claiming. Do you think I'm going to wade through all the drivel you've posted, I wouldn't waste my time

100 1 Tell me why would governments throughout the world fabricate a story about Covid 19, what would be the point, and don't tell me that it's being organised by the "Deep State" unless you can tell me exactly who and what the Deep State is. Your posts defy logic and even basic common sense

There is only one greater spewer of horse shit, Donald Trump

That's the problem with getting a grip......you need to relax a little and let some blood and oxygen flow through your system. And stay of the internet for a few weeks.....

More bloody rubbish from lunatic conspiracy theorists

How dumb are you 100 1

Obviously you can not read amongst your many other failings. The report says that if you are testing for Covid 19 then a viral test rather than antibodies test should be made. If an antibodies test is made then it may pick up other corona viruses. Hence test for covid 19 are viral tests

As I've said before Meome, I hope your knowledge about horses is far better than your knowledge on this subject. My God you post some rubbish and this post is one of your worst. What do you do, make it up as you go along?

I can assure you Mike, that my posts always seem to me, to make sense when I post them

I always have, it's only taken you a while to come round to my way of thinking😜

The cost of the Police operation will be well over 15 million and almost certainly over 20 million.
It is The Organised Crime Unit after all, not just the regular Police 
The first recorded involvement of the RIU ( in the Police evidence ) is September 2016 
There’s no way of knowing what the RIU has spent but I can tell you only ONE RIU name keeps popping up in the Police evidence 
They still have no money trail, nor do they have any betting irregularities 
At the last pre trial hearing the defendants were represented by thirteen lawyers, nine of whom were QC’s ......one single defendant was billed $41,000 for that four day pre trial hearing attendance 
The cost to the industry is staggering....for nothing......
Judge Neave is dismantling the crown case....meantime Operation Inca wasted more time laying criminal charges against me....then withdrew them last week after we asked for disclosure 
This must surely go down as the single greatest waste of Police resources ever, nearly four years investigation if you include the RIU, covert surveillance for 160 days from Invercargill, to Forbury Park, Christchurch to Blenheim, Alexandra Park to Cambridge, to Palmerston North, nearly four years now, motels, hotels, rental cars, at race meetings, airports, phone taps, trailing cars late at night, for what ?, for absolutely nothing ( as yet anyway )
 
 
 
 

Reminds me of the saying, “I’ve never gone to bed with a dog, but I’ve woken up with a few”
Probably not PC  to say nowadays!

Pam, Im not aware of Leggy's Significant academic achievement and neither would it have made any difference to my post. As another poster stated he was responding with smart answers which left everybody wondering what he was talking about. If he knows more why doesn't he tell us instead of making posts that inferred we were all ignorant and only he had the answers. There are many of us on this site with considerable experience and involvement in racing and also have very succesful academic backgrounds

Leggy, my response was directed at Pam who made an unwarranted and unnecessary post criticising me for daring to ask a question of you. It is my understanding, that in recent times funding from pokies has gone towards supporting the RIU

Good point. Everythings too top heavy. Could you tell me what the point is in appointing independent board members for HRNZ. If they have little or no knowledge of racing what good are they?

I agree if you divide the distribution by the reduced numbers of races the average race stake should be up. If a horse is good enough it will still be able to win as much if not more money

Agreed Poundforpound, which is why I am disappointed that the proposed structures to ensure that there was some accountability by the RIU for their actions, were not put in place

The split last season for harness was 29-30%
My information is that our code share share of betting is down so no doubt the gallops will want more, leaving harness with less
The age old argument from the Thoroughbred code is that they deserve all the betting on Aussie gallops, the argument from harness in part is that they moved off Saturday’s to make way for Aussie gallops in anticipation of a return
The other argument is why Thoroughbreds think they deserve the betting on an Aussie race that they have not contributed stakes, starters, trainers of jockeys to, just because it is a gallops race. They are very passionate about that. The other side of the coin is if that’s the direction that we head in is that there should be a revamp of dates so that Thoroughbreds don’t have all the prime time, like the Saturdays aforementioned

Harness Racing turnover this season is down on even the Greyhound turnover on far less race meetings and actual races of course. The new boarrd is going to face a very dificult decision at it's initial meeting, given that it takes control on the 1st August. RITA and the codes will need to make sure competent people are appointed quickly, and if it is to make any progress these people will need to be prepared to make compromises
