The UK Labour Party has sacked one of its' general election candidates over alleged anti-Islamic tweets. Trevor Merralls, general secretary of black cab taxi drivers co-operative, denies that the twitter account in question, @wellingblueboy was his.
The Australian Human Rights Commission is pushing for sexist quotas for all government contractors. Sex Discrimination Commissioner, Kate Jenkins, is proposing that all contractors to the government would have to employ at least 40% women.
Yes, there will be another New Zealand property crash, and, yes, it will include Auckland. In May 2015 I made a video outlining the reasons why the Auckland property market was in a bubble and so would eventually crash.
The government is never slow to take up an opportunity to spend tax payers' money on some "important" world event (think Rugby World Cup 2011- conservatively $39 million plus, America's Cup 2013 - $33 million).
In 2014/5 some western politicians started calling for Russia to be disconnected from the SWIFT system for inter-bank transfers. Russia responded by putting in place plans to set up their own version of SWIFT.

Until recently, those of us concerned about the implications of rampant globalisation on New Zealand were mostly worried about NZ becoming a lap dog of the United States.
Labour and the Greens last week released their budget responsibility rules. This is a slick political move which could fool a lot of soft voters. On the face of it, it looks like they are making a firm commitment to fiscal responsibility.
In an Official Information Act request obtained by Right Minds NZ, dated March last year, it has been revealed that the Auckland DHB spend over $95,000 on workshops for staff to promote their "new values" in 2014.
It seems the 21st century really is an extraordinary time to be alive. Unfortunately, I don't mean that in a good way. We live in a bizarre age when men are women, women are cats, landmasses are people, but unborn people aren't people.
I’ve changed my mind about New Zealand becoming a republic. Ever since I was a kid I’ve been very 'anti-royal'. When I was 12 my Mum dropped me off at LLandaff Cathedral in Cardiff on her way to work, to see the Queen turn up.
