This forum rocks . Keep up the awesome work 😀

Everybody in the Press Box said Journalism was a winner.  But the Maori Party people gambled on Sovereignty and that makes them winners. When it comes to reporting on the lack of accountability of Maori Party leaders on sovereignty matters journalism comes second. 

Totally honest Liz, now is the time for Labour to reshuffle the deck and copy Abo’s marketing platform …. I can see another landslide in favour of Labour National remain disconnected and they most definitely are not “sorted”

Exactly @Nelli Would someone who knows let us all know what exact Year and Timelines and who was involved in the original processes of this long standing and unfortunate disruption to the stability of our industry?   With that information perhaps we can all help each other make sure those who instigated this chaos is held to account, where they are still alive.   One in any Investigation and holding people to account goes back to the commencement of the chain of events and how it happened.  it's not just those involved in the "consequences". Obviously monies can be clawed back where there's been dishonesty, including where there's been failures by Boards - that comes under compliance with Governance. If it has involved Transnationals who targeted the people of NZ using "Wire" communications that to can also be followed up. It has got similarities to Counterfeit crime - and for all we know monies involved may have come from proceeds of Crime as it so often does when it comes to Property, Inducing loss of monies etc related to Financial and Organized Crime.   As an aside, it's important to be mindful of when and who introduced Internet capable phones and devices in NZ ( Remember MP George Hawkins accessing pornography & Paul Swains roles in 2000 era) and there were scant New Zealand people having access to or could afford these.   We see Len Oughton is on the committee at Auckland and his wife Annette was involved with the fashion side of Racing.   We would reasonably expect people like him to follow up in these matters as he has been in the sector a long time and should show leadership in holding those responsible to account

Bald men do not do well in politics is a known fact. Its Luxon's handicap. Waititi the Maori hopeful and L.abour ally knows that and is why he wears the hat in Parliament. Labour would need to turn Winston again. Auckland will not forgive Chippie's part in locking us down for 100 days so Labour, nutty Greens and TPM wont cut it. Unless they get some straight thinkers this country is lost if those tragics get into power I just wish the left would find a new leader and some new cattle. Chippy and McAnulty are so tainted with past actions. And for Gods sake dont bring that little union hack Michael Wood back. Come on, get some business people, farmers, tradies in, not BA.s, union reps, schoolteachers and low level lawyers.  

Gee whiz I am loving SKY TV tonight as the commentators turn on themselves, or more correctly their cronies 😂  

I’ve switched over to SKY TV Australia.  The poor buggers.  It’s embarrassing to listen to them, but I will as they embarrass themselves more.  As I predicted on another thread, probably 12 months ago, here in NZ Luxon and his mates are also gone.   

Ellerslie would love to get 10% of that, it was a massive crowd close to 147,000 I believe.

$366 (that's around 615 NZD) for a standing room only ticket and they get a crowd like that.  It's going to be good when our NZB Kiwi catches up.

I am laughing. Do enlighten me. For the record., who is going to struggle and who will prosper?

Well one country is going to struggle the other will prosper .

Prizes as follows: Sub-comp 1:   Winner $60, runner-up $20 Sub-comp 2:   Winner $70, runner-up $20 Sub-comp 3:   Winner $60, runner-up $20 and if anyone wins the triple crown I'll throw in an extra $50 to their prize tally. All prizes in the form of a single bet (Win, Place or Each way), half of any collect to the winner, the other half back into the prize pool.

Well Fletchers reckoned it was worth less than the $100m the Chinese were supposedly going to pay for it. I wonder who the latest failed sale was to? 

I am wondering how the "far right" self opiniated SKY TV Australia is feeling tonight.  Should I take a look?

The banks will want to just keep on making money from the huge interest payments until ATC can't pay. That's how they make their big profits.
