    Cutting back on foreign ownership of our farmland is another great move by the new govt. Too long have increasing farm prices been driven upwards  based on capital gain,rather than what the actual returns are for $ invested.

    Leaving aside the debate about the Kermadecs for a moment, isn’t this what MMP is all about? 
    “Good governance is when the majority want and vote for something!”
    If it happens, (the Kermadecs) so be it, the majority will have spoken, just like they did a few weeks ago.

    Caulfield yesterday is an example of course curators looking for a perfect surface and cocking up a big day
    leave the rail in the true position and let the jockeys avoid the chopped out section, again yesterday a leader railer bias that disadvantaged a majority of horses.
    Imagine owning a back marker, set for a big race and being served up the rubbish that was on show yesterday.
    give me a heavy track any day

    Well in the industry I work in I hear many,many references to wages stagnating and being driven down because good hard working kiwis  can easily be replaced by outsiders willing to work for cheaper wages.  Add to that I know of several instances where I have been told by some very hard working people on working visas,that they feel they are being taken advantage of by local employers. Keeping a supply of cheaper labor coming in not only effects locals wages,it also effects those from overseas already here. 
    Hard work used to be a way to get ahead in nz,now for many its just a way of treading water financially .   Sure there are jobs which cant be filled by locals,sure there needs to be an attitude change by some younger kiwis in so far as work ethic and expectations ,sure we need proper govt. policy to produce workers with the skills needed,  but focusing on those points as the only issues avoids addressing  whats currently going on in the real world.
    From what I'm told by those from overseas,not the backpackers you refer to,i mean those working in the rest homes,the freezing works,the fish processing plant,the juice factory,the onion factory,the apple pickers, etc etc ,is they focus on sending any spare money they have back home. It does not get circulated anywhere to the same extent in the local economy as it does with locals. I even had the local national mp tell me one time it was a form of foreign aid. Maybe it is,however its being done at the expense of local kiwis.
    I think everyone should visit the salvation army and just see some of the backgrounds of those they are helping out. Lifes a genuine struggle for many.Thats why change was needed,and why Winston went with labour.

    What shit. National took over a Government that had consitstantly returned a budget surplus. FACT.
    National fail to return one for the first eight years. FACT.
    Trump, I know that you think that you were born to rule, even your commercial management background influences you there, but face facts, we the majority, have said otherwise!
    Suck it up and move on. You have had your time. IT’s OVER.

    The telecasts were fantastic. Free to Air on Channel 7. Fans even got an interview with Jason Derulo ! The commentary was fantastic. The C7 commentary Host was the great Bruce MacAvaney, probably the most knowlegable sports commentator in the World. His knowledge of a Racing  is second to none. You can bet that after this spectacle, next years Everest meeting will be even bigger and better!
