If you get two polls that disagree that much with each other, I say ignore them both. Pick the one that makes you feel warm inside if you really must.
New Zealand hasn't had a single term government since 1975. It probably didn't help Labour when Norman Kirk died in office and was replaced with someone hopeless. So Labour is going to win again next year. Simon Bridges has an Angry Andrew Little problem - he seems to be just yelling at the government all the time. Whereas Jacinda "Who Needs A Hug?" Ardern looks like fucken Mother Mary. Public image counts for a lot.

It's official: Auckland has a climate emergency
It's official: Auckland has a climate emergency. After a long debate, Auckland Council voted unanimously today to declare a climate emergency in the city. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/a...ectid=12239534 |

The word emergency should be avoid. But this is a good thing.

Auckland Council declares climate emergency
My guess is this is a hollow exercise: "phew That'll keep 'em off our backs for awhile."

Sorry, I forgot sex trafficking involving high profile people was just a myth made up by Russians.
I'll be sure not to believe anything that the State does not allow from now on, Brother.

Fears for Angela Merkel after she's seen shaking for second time in two weeks
She needs to come clean. She's got something going on and maybe she ought to step down before she intends to.

Gap between Māori and non-Māori youth arrests continues to grow
I would suggest that while these issues are complex, the root to the worsening problems vulnerable groups have long faced in New Zealand is the same.

I think your best chance will be chasing your kids for that.

John Banks wants to be mayor? Again? Sure, Phil has his problems - but I don't feel Banks did anything of value when he was running the show. |

What kind of money does that guy have? Maybe he'll recognise his illegitimate kid now. /tui ad

I'd be curious to know how many people are telling him "every day" he should run for mayor. Maybe he means when he looks in the mirror?

There might have to be a separate class for competition because no matter what the rules are if a transgender woman does well it will always be asserted that it's because they were born male, whether that's the case or not.

Boxing has weight classes, maybe more sports need to have testosterone level classes (or other hormone)..
Male & Female (and everything in between) can complete together. One this with the article, it stats the normal female level is 1/10th of the max allowance. But Im sure most of the female weightlifters will have a higher level than the average. |

A 14-year-old on how to rescue politics
Some good points & worth the public discussion. I do wonder how many 16-17 year old would be interested in voting & also whether the assumption that they would be mostly green & Labour voters is true.

It's not really a good article, in fact, it's actually a shining example about why we shouldn't further lower the age of voting. There's no nuance there, none of her assertions are actually backed up, it's full of strong emotive language and zero respect for the other side of the argument.
Granted it's a great essay for someone who's only 14, but If we get this girl back in 3-4 years, she'll probably think a lot differently. I lolled at the "its a fundamental human right" bit too. Quote:

I think your response is a shinning example of why it's important to have the conversation
While it was a bit unpolished I don't think it was anymore more 'strongly emotive' or 'assertive' or 'zero respectful' than other opinion pieces written by adults on the subject. And this is from someone who even if the age was lowered would have two more years of civics education before being eligible. Also I though the fundamental human right line was relevant as it is a human right, the subjective age is what we agree upon as a society . . . hence why discussion. There's some good points on both sides of the argument (eg potential lack of life experience) but for me I think that 16-17 year olds actually interested and motivated to vote are probably responsible enough.
