OnPoint: Because Statistical Rigour, in reply to John Farrell,
Perhaps we should just ignore it?
Welll said. I'd concentrate on the closures and don't let them sidetrack you with this stupid NACT divisive ideology.

On tonight’s TV1 news Paraka quoted:
That is a very good shortened name. Hekia + Parata = Paraka. :)

Well, no, these numbers won’t let you “measure the teachers” at all, HoS editors. You just concocted that angle to play on a popular prejudice.
But their teachers levitate

As for a Drama series Isn't it just that? I mean it isn't a documentary ( that should be scrutinised for accuracy) -
Hard News: "Because we can", in reply to Alec Morgan,
We even paid for her to tot off to the US. to learn how to do this. Taxpayer funded (beneficiaries included because they also pay tax) to learn how to screw up vulnerable people and if anyone has wandered around streets in the States (pick any town, they all participate), you'll see kids begging, parents with babies begging, and cardboard box communities due in large to the abysmal welfare system there.
I went to town in Seattle one day.Thought I'd do a bit of shopping in the Market. I noticed a group of kids sitting on the pavement when I dismounted from the bus. The words on one of the wee signs in front of them said "I'm dreaming, of a Macdonalds burger". What I saw was so many people striding past these kids (about 10 years old) and noone noticed them at all. My shopping spree consisted of donating to their dream and walking around the library. I caught the bus back to where I was staying, got lost and didn't even notice because I was completely disturbed in how society can let children suffer so much. I ended up in a suburb considered on the lower side of town but I found the people there cared and were helpful to get me back to where I needed to get. They cared more than those kids had seen. And we paid Bennett to go learn how to create this pile of shit. -
Bennett had her patsy question about the restructuring of categories for beneficiaries asked today in question time and she said the UB will go up to about 135,000 as she includes those on a sickness benefit and those on the dpb with youngest children 14 years or over. The new sole parent support will go down to about 88,000 because its got parents with kids 14 or younger, so totally confused as to where the ones with 14 year olds are categorized but she also got asked about benefit cuts from Jacinda Ardern and managed to add now that they wont target those who have no opening for an early childhood programme so some kids are safe... for now
