Future recordings will be on Thursday evenings.
But that's raid night!
Grats on your new home.

Early civilizations (ie. the ones with archaeological records) usually don’t separate religion and state.
This statement is not true.

This would seem to be a good place for random comments
Table tennis is amazing (the recycled old fart with his patronizing commentary, not so much)
Women's 10m pistol final was weirdly riveting. They were so very serious. I was very relieved to see they actually could have emotions after it all ended.
Kiwi women's hockey team were/are brilliant
I can't watch Eventing without jumping in my seat - I expect the High Jump will have the same effect. Oh and volleyball definitely has the same effect.
Why are women in some sports competing in full (2cm thick) make up? It feels vaguely like the 1960s.
And seriously there is nothing more enjoyable than watching people display genuine talent. -

Yes, problems with the broadcast from the UK
But I heard that Prime was showing it without losing the feed. Surely Prime and Sky are using the same feed??

Do you think you could tone down the emotive language you are using. I really don't think it is encouraging anyone to have a positive discussion about the legislation.

How did this become about the "rights" of churches to exclude people from their rites? It is really feeling like the thread that cannot be named.
Whereas I thought it was a thread about this country growing up enough to recognise that same sex couples are real and deserving of the respect accorded to all other couples under law. And note that all the polls say that this country really has grown up that much.

Are you suggesting Gandalf is gay?!?! He just likes wearing dresses and pretty fireworks and parties and ...

You know, if I were a politician (snort), I'd be really really pissed off that Banks is allowed in the same room as me.
It must be hard for the genuinely honest and passionate politicians to have their job smeared by the disgustingly dishonest and dishonorable, behaviour of a few (well I hope it's a few).

"We're going to be discussing that in caucus next week, and I'll talk to you afterwards" is a reasonable -- if infuriatingly commonplace -- response
I will respectfully disagree that this is any kind of actual answer to the question "What's your view..."
Pita Sharples was able to say what his view was AND indicate that it might differ from the The Party view. See that wasn't hard was it.

The word must mean something different to a wideboy money trader
It means, if can you get more money and not get caught doing anything they can convict you on, then you are ethical.
