THE MAORI PARTY SEEKS TO AIRBRUSH HISTORY

The Veteran's avatarNo Minister

The Maori Party is in danger of losing any respect they might have otherwise enjoyed. They claim to speak for Maoridom so let’s first turn the spotlight on that. The reality is they polled just 1.17% in the Party vote (down 0.01% from that three years previously) and won two seats. They can only claim to speak for themselves and indeed, all the other four parties represented in the house have as many MPs of Maori descent as they do (and Labour and the Greens more). The Maori Party represents the essentially disaffected rump of Maoridom …. nothing less and certainly nothing more.

I guess I can put up with them defying dress standards and wearing silly hats in the House although one might have expected the Speaker to take a less charitable view of that having said that he expects Members to obey the rules requiring MPs to conform…

War of The Walds: Germany’s Forests Overrun With Wind Turbines in Dystopian ‘Green’ Nightmare

stopthesethings's avatarSTOP THESE THINGS

Germany’s landscape has been carpeted with more than 30,000 gigantic industrial wind turbines: the result is a dystopian nightmare, reminiscent of HG Wells’ The War of the Worlds. Except that the battle is being waged in towns and villages and most visibly in the German walds – with whole forests being clear-felled to make way for these things, rendering the landscape a hideous visual cacophony.

The little more on what your wind powered future might look like, here’s Pierre Gosselin.

Germany’s Enviro-Dystopia: Wind Parks Devastating Rural Regions At Catastrophic Proportions
No Tricks Zone
Pierre Gosselin
1 December 2020

Germany’s vision of a clean, environmentally friendly energy supply system, all to be discreetly nestled in an idyllic landscape, is in reality morphing into an environmental dystopia of catastrophic proportions.

German wind energy protest group Vernunftkraft.de posted a Youtube video showing how out of control wind energy has gotten in some regions…

Alison L Young: The Draft Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011 (Repeal) Bill: Turning Back the Clock?

UKCLA's avatarUK Constitutional Law Association

Things were different in 2010. If schools closed and households found themselves stuck indoors, or unable to travel abroad, it was due to snowstorms and erupting Icelandic volcanoes, not because of a pandemic. Moreover, if the then Prime Minister wished to dissolve Parliament, he did not need to adhere to the requirements of the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011, which fixed parliamentary terms to five years, allowing for early parliamentary general elections either following a vote of two-thirds of the House of Commons in favour of an early parliamentary general election, or following a vote of no confidence. Instead, so the draft Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011 (Repeal) Bill would have us believe, the Prime Minister could dissolve Parliament and instigate a new general election by use of a prerogative power, at a date of his choosing unchecked by the courts, subject only to ensuring Parliament did not exceed its maximum…

Green Journalist Reels Against GWPF Policy Analyst

gjihad's avatarGreen Jihad

During the middle of last month, Great Britain’s Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, announced he would soon submit a ban on fossil fuel cars in the country that will full take effect in 2040. Appearing on Ian Collins’ TalkRadio show in Great Britain, Global Warning Policy Foundation‘s Head of Policy, Harry Wilkinson, debates Donnachadh McCarthy, a journalist from The Independent on this issue. This is why environmentalists hate to or will not debate, because their ideas are nonsense and this exchange proves it.

Environmentalist Terrorists Arrested For Railroad Sabotage

gjihad's avatarGreen Jihad

On Saturday, the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force arrested and charged two women in connection with a terrorist plot to sabotage railroad tracks in order to cause a train derailment. According to The New York Times, Ellen Brennan Reiche, 27, and Samantha Frances Brooks, 23, stand accused of placing a shunt on a railroad track in Bellingham, Washington.

In addition to previously working as a deputy field organizer for the Washington State Democratic Party, Reiche is a radical feminist and environmentalist who jointly founded the Bellingham Lesbian Collective. Both ladies also co-hosted the lesbian-oriented podcast The L-Word.

The Times also states that an anarchist website stated the purpose of the attacks is to impede an oil pipeline. In its press release, however, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said that a shunt can interfere with a train’s electrical signal and cause it to brake abruptly or interrupt its safety…

MORE EVIDENCE JUST HOW CRAP LABOUR’S GUN LEGISLATION IS

The Veteran's avatarNo Minister

This followed an earlier incident last month at Puketona, just 10k from Paihia, where a police officer was shot at from close range. The two men involved are still on the run.

The incident in Paihia yesterday where a couple attempted to force a man to withdraw money from his ASB account, foiled when the bank staff triggered a silent alarm, which saw the woman arrested and the man fighting for his life after he crashed the car he was driving shows, yet again, just how stupid and woke the gun legislation passed as a knee jerk reaction to the Christchurch shootings is. It is reported that the man, already on bail, has close ties to the Tribesman Motorcycle gang. Two loaded firearms were found in the crashed car.

This crap legislation took away guns from law abiding citizens while the criminal underclass cocked their collective snoots. They are never…
