My Budget for Year 2025 - Your Choice

The current welfare system has over the years piled mountains of debt onto the shoulders of today’s children and young people, who as a result, should be marching in the streets in protest.

Statutory Interpretation: The UK Supreme Court Shows How It’s Done

The Court’s role is to interpret and apply the law as Parliament has enacted it, not to substitute its own judgment for that of elected representatives. As the UK Supreme Court has shown, respect for democracy demands judicial discipline, not activism.

New modelling reveals full impact of Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs

We now have a clearer picture of Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs and how they will affect other trading nations.

As our mothers will have told us this as we stood staring in to fridge looking for something which is under our nose but often when simple truths are staring us in the face we look the other way rather than face them. Such is happening today on a massive scale threatening to undermine our democracy and our way of life.

The Electricity Crisis: Urgent Action Needed

Nothing we do can change the climate because India and China are burning vast amounts of coal and, anyway, real world evidence tells us that man-made global warming appears to be the biggest hoax in the history of the world. Trump and Badenoch have given up on net zero and we should do the same.

All over the western world, ordinary decent people are finally rebelling against the smug complacent intolerant arrogance of ruling elites.

Low Watt-age

It is time to call a loud “halt” on our international signings.  We should start backing out of the Paris Agreement in lock step with other countries and build a national and then international case to have ruminant methane removed from all research, reduction commitments, or taxing.

Too Intimidated to Speak Out?

Business owners affected by growing iwi control are too afraid to speak out or make formal submissions about DOC’s discriminatory practices, fearing it could cost them their livelihoods. And job applicants stand no chance if they can’t demonstrate total support for the obligatory Māori narrative.
