Ooh, you are going to woke hell for that. Truth is not allowed by the wokesters.

Following the money usually works.

I thought that was a man, not the transgender. He doesn't even try to look like a female with his mancut.

Along with Saudi, the UK and NZ. I worked with many and for the most part pretty good. Not as good as the Australians though. Lots of them in the UK doing their OE, till the UK government did away with agency nurses and recruited nurses from Africa- they worked for less.

Mine kicked me out to boarding school, and the teachers didn't educate me about life either. I had to learn everything on my own after I started working. Didn't do too badly either, except I was too trusting of others.

Nobody I knew bothered going to uni anyway. Unless going to be a Dr or lawyer etc, no working person doing a proper job needed a degree, including nurses. I got an apprenticeship without needing a degree- but the government did away with apprenticeships years ago and made people pay to do a course instead, so now it costs a lot to get a plumber or electrician. Now nurses need a degree that they pay for and it's hard to find any.

Most kids in NZ probably opened a Post Office savings account- 3% interest ( house mortgages were 9% ). Now of course, those accounts are long gone and so is the post office as an institution.

Surely then, prices must decrease if people can't sell theirs at a high price. I thought America was a market economy, or does that not apply to houses?

I said, yesterday, I think that Russia would punish Ukraine for it's attacks on Russian refineries. Didn't take long, did it? What a load of tosh. The west has no right to complain if Nth Korea sends missiles to Russia, after keeping this war going with western missiles. Do they think Nth Korea is a friend of America, or something equally stupid?

It may or may not be because of human activity, but it's irrelevant because there is no way we can change climate back, no matter how rich we make Elon.

LOL, you are so correct. Seems to be a lot of people out there that think humans are so special that we will be around forever, when it's more likely that we are just a passing species. It'll just be more ironic if we exterminate ourselves because we polluted too much and over populated the small area that is able to support human life.

Sea level rise in NZ is in millimeters per year. I am unable to see any difference in sea level on the shore near where I live over the past 60 or so years. If it was obvious I have no doubt the woke NZ media would have seized on it to tell us that we are all doomed unless we pay more taxes and drive EVs. It's pretty obvious that if land subsides the water may flood it. I'm sure that some Pacific islands are sinking. Tectonic plate activity has not ceased simply because humans think it should.

IMO a good outcome. Being woke should carry a penalty. Rubbish. If a person has a penis, regardless of silicone enhancements in other parts of the body, they have no right to be in a female only changing room. PERIOD.

IMO anyone that claims to be poor, but uses a dishwasher, smokes tobacco, uses illegal drugs or drinks alcohol is not poor. They are IMO stupid.

I'm calling BS on the Brexit part, but agree 100% about supporting America's proxy war. If Sunak hadn't spent all the money on things to kill people with, there might have been enough to invest in Britain to make it a better place. I guess photos of Sunak sucking up to netanyahu are sexier than him with some poor peasants in Britain.

LOL. The border patrol are on VDO cutting the wire to allow illegals to illegally enter. Surely you haven't forgotten that, as it was discussed at the time?

I would assume back then there was no such beast as an immigration department. Anyone could go anywhere if they were prepared to fight for it. LOL. One assumes that only applied to persons of Caucasian origin. It sure didn't apply to the original inhabitants of the land.

Is it your contention that sea levels are rising in the Pacific and Thailand, but not around New Zealand, as they sure ain't around NZ. As for Thailand, the only area I'm familiar with that has been flooding ( because other areas are not ) routinely is Bangkok, which has flooded at least since the 1980s, and that is because it is sinking, not the water rising. It's sinking because they pump too much groundwater out, but I'm sure you knew that. As for "global warming", I wish we had a bit in NZ as it's rather cold at night. I've had to start using the heater already.

Everyone, presumably, on here, has seen the VDO. Sure looks like assault to me. If I were on a jury I'd convict the one holding the cop. I'm not sure about his brother though as the VDO doesn't show him actually assaulting the cop or what happened before they took the gun off him. He may not have been involved in the assault and only assisting in an assault.

Trump's bankers were harmed because they could have charged higher interest on loans if they knew his true net worth was lower than he claimed. I don't know if hell exists, but if it does, I hope there is a special category for bankers.

Thanks for that, but I amended "small states" to "conservative states".

LOL. That would either entail israeli troops inside Gaza forever, and the US has already said that is unacceptable, or israeli troops in Egypt. Somehow, I think Sisi might have a disagreement with that.

Of course I agree with you, but that's not the point here. The only point of relevance is that one does not go to a foreign country where one does not have a clue about how it works, and assault a cop, for any reason short of actually being in fear for one's life. No matter how corrupt a cop may be in LOS, they don't go around shooting tourists for no reason, and certainly not in public where everyone has a phone with a camera. If they evaded a traffic stop, and were pursued by a cop, who understandably may have been a bit "annoyed", the correct response when actually stopped isn't to attack the cop and take his gun away. Given the cop has lost face, which means a great deal in LOS, one agrees that they will take revenge on the lads. I wonder what they were thinking to even try and evade a traffic stop. In NZ the cops may be a bit of a joke ( wokeness and PC have been at work for too long in NZ for my liking ) but even here I would not try and evade a traffic stop. They are not infrequent and are usually to check for drunk drivers.

Not near the coast, on the coast right beside the sea. Now, you climate alarmists, convince me he thinks it's going to get flooded.

Please edit your first sentence to make sense.
