@PierceSuzanne And why I am always cautious about pouring praise on Verity’s opinions - in 1 paragraph she says Seymour is a good politician tho’- if Seymour’s vile, racist ,conniving & depraved behaviour is indicative of his political prowess she is deluded! He is an unmitigated disgrace!

@NZAllison Just credit where it’s due! You’re welcome!

@mrs_twp Oh, that it was even a possibility! I fear only his betrothed and his two surrogate “mothers” would show any interest - no one else in their right mind would consider such a proposal, and would you blame them?

@chrishipkins Short answer, Chippie! NO!

@gne2 @Feijoa_Chutney Clearly, being older hasn’t made you any wiser Gne! Just perhaps, working with a Maori service provider and being fluent in te Reo would be a very useful tool when dealing with the health needs of Maori, particularly older Maori who feel more comfortable with their language!

@HelenaT57230672 @Papaioeajake Winston has been too quiet in recent times!

@JOMcFadyen @Papaioeajake I do think Gerry Brownlee’s arbitration flies very close to the wind! His bias towards the CoC does him no favours - in fact, it makes him look decidedly incompetent in the Speaker role!

Jason Walls lost me in his first couple of sentences on the NZH podcast - “with polls coming out our ears recently” followed immediately by “two polls within an hour or so of each other” does not constitute polls coming out our ears - as a political commentator - do better!

It’s 9.44pm and I this is my Wordle effort in 2 mins! Wordle 1,334 2/6 🟨⬜🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I will have to leave the game till later in the day/night to get the grey matter working in future!

@KiffinEileen Sounds about right!

@MungKiwi Being across the ditch I occasionally feel I am talking to the void as well! But, tbh I don’t care - it releases my pent up frustrations and I just move on. Sooner or later someone will pick up and comment!

@ForsmanTrish This is a conciliatory read from John Campbell. I have just returned from seeing my Bulk Billed GP here in Brisbane to have some skin lesions dry iced. A busy clinic, cheerful staff in stark contrast to what is happening in NZ. I am so grateful for making the move when I did!

@phlogga PK has a particular condescending tone reserved for Labor & PM Albanese - it’s obvious when she interviews anyone on the Left of politics but the warm fuzzies, the laughter and love are the preserve of the LNP! Oh that she can afford to be quite so biased?

@actparty And now Seymour uses the Charity for sick kids as his reason for engaging in a ridiculous stunt only to have it backfire on him! What an absolute plonker! His nose grows longer every single day! We see you for the perverse idiot you are!

@therealgregjack Hear, hear!

@Gregrealviafone Notice the tilt of the ear? He is listening!

@Gregrealviafone Not at all! Lord Fulford is Master of his domain and minion to no one. What an expansive view!
