Speaking of rumours, apparently Colbert flew out so he could be here if Jacko got the Nobel.
Fortunately they gave it to someone who deserved it.
I just read the citatoin of the bloke they gave it to. Christ, talk about a transformational government:
Abiy Ahmed has initiated important reforms that give many citizens hope for a better life and a brighter future. He spent his first 100 days as Prime Minister lifting the country’s state of emergency, granting amnesty to thousands of political prisoners, discontinuing media censorship, legalising outlawed opposition groups, dismissing military and civilian leaders who were suspected of corruption, and significantly increasing the influence of women in Ethiopian political and community life. He has also pledged to strengthen democracy by holding free and fair elections.
Got the Chinese to renegotiate the terms of some of their loans from 10 to 30 years and organised a campaign for the country to plant seedlings which resulted in them planting 314 million trees in one day which will help stop desertification and the effects of farming .

Didn’t give birth to a baby though, did he? Huh? And his empathy face is nowhere in the same league as Jacinda’s.

@jegga So no love for the guy who planted 300 million trees then?
My mother just went to Canada and the states, she said loons over there were raving to her about Ardern . Obviously her pr campaigns whenever theres a story with an international angle are working , shes a shoe in for some UN job in the meantime we are stuck with an incompetent administration that promised 20000 houses built by now and have only delivered about 400.
I won't list the various sex scandals committed by her staff that shes been complicit in covering up because to honest I'm losing track of them. It's like she simultaneously had Bill Cosby and Jimmy Saville working for her. -

I wonder what the NZLP did to satisfy those complainants, with their "thorough" and "vigorous" "independent" review?

To be fair I don’t think Abiy Ahmed identifies as a woman, so Elton probably couldn’t pick him.
Please don't assume gender you bigot

New poll up thats even worse for Labour . I'm not sure how important the preferred pm poll is, we vote for parties not the leaders and 56% of people in the newshub poll expect Bridges to be pm next year

Nice to see some proverbial new to town NIMBY's getting put back in their box:
His decision was a clear and loud message to anyone buying into the area that they would be buying into an operational airforce base that deployed men and women in uniform to help others.
"I make no apology for issuing this certificate and advise anyone who is thinking of purchasing a home near Whenuapai, that you are moving into an area where a military airbase has operated since World War II.
"There will continue to be noise generated by military aircraft and you need to accept that."
