@taniwharugby the left are still claiming the polls are wrong too. I imagine if they were in their favour they'd say the exact opposite. It's worth recalling that when Shearer was their leader they were around 35-37% but he was too " right wing" so they dumped him.

@jegga think this is the one that came out on Monday Labour would 'give' the seat to Greens, Little came out claiming there was no deal
Was a daft deal to start with, Labour just as well have bought .Com on board for all the good it seems to be doing
They can "give" whatever they like, but unless Nick Smith is not standing again in Nelson - and it's news to me that he's not - then there is bugger all chance of anyone else taking that seat.
I can't stand Nick Smith, but a majority of Nelsonians seem to love him. Last time I thought he'd at least be dented by his shenanigans around merging the Nelson- Ta$man councils (his close ally the Nelson mayor got turfed out), but Nick suffered barely a blip.

My what?
Oh right. She deserves to be happy apparently .
In Greece.

@jegga I was driving into work yesterday and the car sitting next to me had 'In loving memory of Connor MOrris' and then whatever the dates were on their rear window...it has obviously been tough on everyone

@taniwharugby I hear you, hard to believe it's been three years. Seems like only yesterday he was giving someone a beating on the footpath in a p fuelled rage . It's these kind of memories that keep him alive in our hearts.

Lucky to be happy more like it, lucky her then alive daddy could afford the best lawyers to fight any convictions for being involved with P.
I wonder if travelling through Te Kuiti would appeal as much as Greece for her facebook loving fansChill mate, she's been through a lot....

@taniwharugby TR - you're in Whangarei right? Those cars seemingly are everywhere. Driving down River Road , Hamilton, yesterday morning, I followed a black Ford Territory with the same sticker on the rear window. I have seen it a couple of times now.
The SUV that meth bought.
-
@Tregaskis I am, but was the first time I had seen that one...always the odd other ones with RIP type messages on their windows.
This was a Subaru Legacy, not an SUV, always the poor cousins up this way

@taniwharugby I presume Little stuck out his huge Roger Ramjet jaw and looked glum?

Interesting ... new England boss wants to use the AB's model of internal leadership in the England football team. I could see this working under the likes of Beckham, Shearer ... but not sure if I could say the same of Rooney.

We have one of those at our primary school. Feral scum, as you'd expect.

You think wrong.

Damn!
Gist of the article: if the merger is permitted then we could end up with a viable high quality national newspaper. Without the merger, both orgs are doomed, which is not a good alternative. (Surrounded by a lot of Jones's usual musings)

We " could" but at the moment we have competition which should in theory make them try and outdo do each other for market share. Instead you'd be embarrassed to line the bottom of a budgies cage with either of them. How would a monopoly improve that?
