  • “Newsroom reported donations just under the declarable limit were made in March 2019 to the foundation after a public relations consultant orchestrated a meeting with Hart's son-in-law Duncan Hawkesby and NZ First MP Clayton Mitchell. An email from the PR consultant with the subject line "re CGT" said Mitchell's stance on a capital gains tax aligned with Hawkesby's. A meeting Hart briefly attended between Hawkesby and Mitchell occurred and three donations of $14,995 were made from different companies aligned with the family. In April 2019, then Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern confirmed a capital gains tax would not be introduced saying consensus could not be reached between parties in government. ”

    • a tiny investment for someone who holds billions in property. We are so easily sold out. And we’re about to be sold out yet again. Legal Corruption.
  • Yeh, the zeitgeist is also highly diverse , nuanced, layered, multi linguistic, regionalised and constantly evolving. Which I see as hopeful and isn't what the CCP wants. Any Western generalisation especially across headlines is hardly ever accurate, but also plays to the party’s own often defensive (feelings easily hurt) public info strategies.

  • Agree. It is quite an achievement for a single party to hold sway over the 1.4 billion or whatever the population is. There must be very little appetite for upheaval or instability given even recent history. such sabre rattling and the risk of actual war must be a shaky proposition internally, despite supposed levels of nationalism.
