No, the rapist. Raping is hard work, especially if you're a Night Rapist.

In this so-called 'open and transparent' government...a Minister has pulled out of an interview today after we wouldn't let them control the question line. They wouldn't do the interview unless the story was positive. Unbelievable.

What were the questions? Open and transparent isn't the same as abandoning political astuteness.

Of course, the Minister should be skilled at reframing and stonewalling without having to back out. Unless it's a turd there's no polishing, then wear it, short having a special skill set and not having noosed themselves with "open and transparent".

Maybe the minister should just front the fuck up and be accountable for his portfolio? Fuck the questions, he needs to put his big boy pants on.

Really? Pxpx called you out on your irrational hatred of Key, well after he left politics, and your response is "OH YEAH WELL KEY MAKES YOU SWOON!" Good comeback, man.

JK's ability to front up to interviewers, reframe questions and stonewall obviously makes him a top level cunt.

But for Labour Ministers, it's part of the allure, amirite LS?

Is it deflection when you're deflecting a deflection?

The goal posts for me are always the same: what outcomes are the government producing. It does get complex of course, considering that MPs must remain in government to produce outcomes, and so their ability to put on a show and dance comes into it. But ultimately it's results that matter.

We were talking about a minister pulling out of an interview because they didn't get to dictate what they would be asked.

Question

I haven't seen any mention of the justification or lack thereof for the uplifts.

Like, are they uplifting any/all Maori babies? Or just the babies of mothers who have already had their children removed in the past for reasons that meet a legal threshold?

The way people are painting it on social media is that it's just Maori children being taken for absolutely no reason, and therefore it's racist. They aren't pointing to specific cases of unfairness or lack of justification, just uproar about children being taken. If this is the case, then fair point. If they're being sold to Angelina Jolie for her own personal Small World ride, of course it's shocking.

I understand it must be awful to have your child taken from you - but playing the Devil's Advocate, is it not also awful to be born into a violent/abusive/drug addicted household and lie around crying in an unchanged nappy, getting the odd punch in the head for crying from your Mum's latest fuck?

So is the uproar about babies being taken unjustifiably, or the old chestnut about Maori being able to have sovereignty over their people and they should be handed over to a marae instead of white foster parents?

Like other stats, Maori are over represented in the uplifts based on population.

I agree, there will always be fringe cases which maybe they made the wrong judgement.

But you know what, they have probably saved 100's of children dying.
There are probably plenty of Kahui's out there, that had their children removed.

My take is a lot of the hype is from the white "privileged" who can only think in their own circumstances. They think of it like if someone came and took their baby away.

I watched the video, and could be convinced that the Oranga Tamariki women were actually sent by the Goblin King.

To be fair, even with it being such an abject failure to live up to Labour's promises, the "largest Government house-build programme since the 70's" is accurate.

Which really shows more how crap government building schemes have been.

Well, we need to find someone to blame (not us voters of course) and we must quash the concerns of any dissenters by suggesting they're delusional.
