At 70 Savage , despite Lee's contradiction, knew how to fight if nothing else, like Key knew how to schmooze and sell. These people … are lucky, I think. Does anyone think they match Bernie Sanders? Maybe the fool, Stephen Mills, the left voice on RNZ. A voice like Norman Kirk would be good enough.

If that was so, then being overturned by other Cabinet Ministers is a lot better than failing a judicial review. <br />If the sole source of GS's comments is articles in the Granuiad, then no wonder he has blinkered and erroneous views. <br />Chris MorrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-63972779102627140712019-10-14T13:04:39.945+13:002019-10-14T13:04:39.945+13:00"So called climate science is a fraud.

Sure there are the diggers and trucks (although in some big mines overseas the trucks are actually electric) but if you stopped a mine because of this you would stop all other construction and earthworks as well surely. <br /><br />I also love the irony of the Zero Carbon bill being called this generation's Nuclear Free moment. Nuclear power is probably the only current technology we have to rapidly reduce C02 emissions - and NZ has a huge apology due to the world for leading other countries against it. France correctly ignored us and has halved their C02 per capita since 1980 by making 70% of their power from nuclear. Canada has a single nuclear power station which produces more more clean power than all of NZ's hydro dams and wind turbines combined.

The Earth's climate is constantly changing and much warmer periods have been recorded in late Roman and Mediaeval times, without the benefit of industrialization. This modern western hysteria would cause millions to die especially in developing countries if its absurd demands were implemented. CO2 is a trace gas at 0.04 percent of the atmosphere that nevertheless helps make life possible.Trev1https://www.blogger.com/profile/00271717267778957672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-30864922908466685262019-10-12T18:28:45.272+13:002019-10-12T18:28:45.272+13:00The Greens have been humiliated, yet again.
