Hard to choose my favourite line today but when push comes to shove, I think it has to be this one:

And best of all Slap the bejesus out of Simeon Brown.

Back in the mists of time Mr Hosking was threatening to move to Australia, it’s just his thing.

Usual excellent effort Nick, thank you.

Loved this Nick. We are blessed, and as members of our Family live in OZ, it is not all beer and skittles over there. Hoskins would find he is not rich enough lol!! They are very New York minded.

You are right, most folk here are great. Arohanui. Trish

Fabulous, uplifting & so damn accurate Nick! Thankyou!

Yep we all need to take a breath, take it easy & realize how damn fine we've got it down here in beautiful Aotearoa I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else in the world right now (well apart from a couple of weeks soaking up some vit D & drying out the webbed feet on a tropical island 🏝 in the Caribbean maybe 😁) but you get the gist.

I hope Kiri gets a chance to have some self care & time to heal and bloody Simeon hears the enormous backlash, by most fairminded Kiwis, to his despicable antics. What a Slimeball!

Cheers Fi( not your wife) 😊

People like hosking are out and out traitors and should be run out of town, tarred and feathered - then put into a sack with simple simeon , attached to an engine block and dumped in the Hauraki Gulf.

Exactly this Nick. Thanks.

Thank you Nick for a great post and for speaking the absolute truth on our behalf. You really need a guest column in the Herald. Would be interesting to know who the one is in the background setting up all the whines, stirring and petty gotchas on behalf of the Nacts. Have my suspicions and wish Nicky Hager would have look.

Tautoko Nick. Wasn't it last week before the National Party conference that Chris Bishop said everyone is sick of Arderns kindness? Hmm the politics of nasty.

Thank you Nick for another great read. I too was sickened by the attack on Kiri by the little weasel and his mate the woodpecker.

Heaven help us if these two and their colleagues get anywhere near the treasury benches. NZ won't be at the top of any lists for work/lifestyle balance. And the poorest will find themselves in a greater struggle than they have had since Ruth Richardson's "Mother of all budgets".

Let's work towards a Labour/Greens/ TPM government, and fair treatment for everyone.
