Post2016, the rules of politics are out the window, but you just didn't expect that someone at WashPo would have to google "golden shower".

14 hours in Wellington and I've felt an earthquake. WELCOME HOME.

Hello +64 4

I get that this is just populist signalling, but that's literally it. Not a single redeeming useful feature of this policy.

Fourth, you can't even pretend this will reduce murders. In fact, the policy relies on murders continuing.

Third, Super policy is controlled by Fed, not state. So the state Libs literally cannot promise to deliver this.

....in which case you'd give the super to the victim's family, who is also the murderer?

Second: between a third and half of those victims would be been killed by a member of their household (AIC, 2015)....

Firstly, this is barely *public* policy. Last year 66 people were murdered in Victoria. A tiny, tiny group of ppl will "benefit" from this.

The La La Land soundtrack is ace, but if reviews are anything go by I might just leave it at the soundtrack.

In 11 days this guy will be the only progressive leader in the west.

Semi-regular reminder that Different Class by Pulp is probably the best album of all time.

Bill English is probably missing his only opportunity to attend Waitangi as Prime Minister. His loss.
