Sad that all are ramping up their rhetoric - the fear and loathing factor, talk of the end of the world should the ‘other’ teM wins. It’s all too much. Please take the heat out.

For all the nonsense we’ve read about Ireland and SA playing boring set piece rugby - this game is spectacular running rugby with forward power. But not a single rolling maul. All credit to Ben OKeef.

Total One News cluster tonight. First a word salad from Mei Heron getting the news from Europe exactly wrong, then this chart with random numbers and no labels. Muppets.

1/ Good morning. If any of you are still bamboozled by Nancy Jacobsen and Mark Penn's @NoLabelsOrg's actual intentions let me hook you up. They claim to be moderate, centrist problem solvers who are running a 3rd part effort to "give Americans more choices."

The problem with the naive-libertarian-conspiracy-theorist cluster is that they hold two incompatible central beliefs. Governments are: + incompetent & incapable of delivering stuff + capable of executing an intricate conspiracy to secretly control you

New Zealand employment law really is nuts. This guy messed up his work, then threatened his bosses, then threatened again…and got a10k award for his behaviour from the tribunal. Similar stories almost every week. Crazy. nzherald.co.nz/nz/i-hope-youv…

Scott Robertson has a great record as regional coach. He could be the right guy, I don’t know. What I do know is that he has been being a right dick for the few last months, screwing around in the media and putting pressure on the current team. Back the f up.

Why is it that when the all blacks lose the country loses its collective mind and calls for the coaches head…. But when the black caps are humiliated, we all shrug and no one seems interested in crucifying the coach ?? Where is Liam Napier ??

NZ car industry - what happens now… thousands of cars need replacement. Is this a good thing? (Lower the fleet age etc) a bad thing?? (Insurance coverage), are their stocks available ? Will it drive up the cost of a car?

A comment on EGGS: NZ’ers always seem to believe that regulations are cost free. They always think ‘the govt should make a rule about that’. Then when costs go up, or product disappears, they wonder why? C’mon people, think about the consequences of regulation first.

NZ is back to being bad at cricket. We had a few short years of being good, but normal, really crappy, service has returned.

The status quo must go. It’s time for a fairer tax system to help deal with costs of living, housing affordability and supporting our most vulnerable. Here’s what we’re proposing 🧵 #nzpol

Jaffa listening to welly mayor debate on @radionz - Foster seems most thoughtful and on to it, Whanau a close second but professional pol and Eagle seems like an idiot. But that’s just a Jaffa opinion.
