Obviously we need a precedent setting ruling here. Personally I say we go 50/50, given the likely criminal link to the cash.

Allowing the couple to keep 100% would open up a pathway to a new type of money laundering, and will enable drug money to be more easily passed on to others, either deliberately or by accident.

Is the game any good? Been on my radar for a. Bit, but still needing to finish mount and blade bannerlord. Not sure if this game is different enough to warrant it.

How is this one lady who’s got amazing talent being held responsible for the wrong doings of her countries government?

Like that’s not how blame works, but I suppose this is their outlet?

A big shame none the less.

Well, the landlords got their tax cuts. Where are the working peoples tax cuts? It’s been 6 months already.

Maybe they’ll wait until they’ve gutted more of the public sector so that there’s less people on payroll to benefit from the tax cuts.

Watching from over here in New Zealand and if your reply to the thoughtful comment above you is - “he didn’t raise minimum wage enough” - 1. You don’t understand jack shit about economics, and 2. You forgot to adress all of the other points raised. But oh, your threatening to go vote against your own interests to spite this anonymous dude online.

You are everything that is wrong with this world and I’m glad that I live far enough away that it won’t affect me. Fuck you and do what you want.

Fuck my mate who went out for a fish with us whilst sick.

If you’re sick just stay home. I’m tired of this convoluted game of germ tag we keep playing.

Grateful to be living in a country where police don’t even carry firearms regularly - New Zealand

It’s much improved. Check out the *arr suite, sonarr, radarr and prowlarr paired with something like plex or jellyfin.

Everything is automated and it’s a bloody game changer.

Like, it’s great that this line of income exists for ministers/prime ministers that genuinely need it to be able to live in Wellington. For example if an average New Zealander got into parliament.

However the hipocrisy from this man is unreal. This is using the electric car rebate but critising the hell out of it and scrapping it as soon as he could, but on a whole other level.

If housing is an issue in Wellington (it is) actively work on fixing it as opposed to providing crazy subsidies to ministers.

Luxon mentions people on the benefit needing a crackdown as there are people living on taxpaplyer money who shouldn’t, what the fuck is he doing claiming all of these extras?

Time to bring in means testing for the benefits our ministers can access.
