also is anyone going to talk about the on votes, the people who voted for an mp but not a party. i thought i saw a chart where that was equal to nationals party vote. or are we returning to the age old, those people are too dumb to fill in a voting form properly argument

I could be wrong but is it that our journalists simply don;t know how to ask questions. Sure John Key has all his tricks and tools to not answer questions, so don't political journalists need to do one better and work out how to ask him questions and get an answer?

Speaker: Three times over, and never again, in reply to June-,
I wish we did have the answers right now victims have 2 choices
say nothing, keep it quiet to yourself and the world and know it might happen to someone else and feel unresolved forever
say something and have it happen to you over and over againno matter what you path you take it feels like you live with the what if.

I'd also like to make a shout out to the team from The Wireless.
It feels like for the first time a chunk of journalists have dedicated time to the under 30 voters. The Standard reporting on the youth vote is - they don't vote, they are apathetic, end story. The Wireless delved deep, partnered with places like Massey for 'ask Away' made frequent appreance on National Radio & on the site itself there are chunks of both in-depth and drop in audio and written reporting.

I just Voted, I live in Wellington.
How the government has treated Canterbury was a big part of my Party Vote Decision. Christchurch is a national issue. Future Disaster response and preparedness decisions in our country will follow the path of Christchurch, and right now, 4 years on that everything is not fixed well it's not ok.I'd also like to say to everyone who lives there, or did, thank you for being brave enough to share your stories, thank you for being vulnerable and trusting us with them.

I'm just wondering when RadioNZ starts to consider who it pays for opinions on shows like the panel and nine to noon.

how awesome would be if you managed to boot Gerry Brownlee on the back of excellent spreadsheets, and is suspect a special door knockers coffee blend from Mr Judd.
On Rino Tirikatene I know a few people in the Te Tai Tonga electorate who switched off maori roll to avoid voting for him based purely on his no vote for marriage equality.

Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to Ian Dalziel,
a Harvey Keitel in Pulp Fiction type of cleaner?

sometimes to access an abortion you will fly on a plane with your 1 support person from your small city to the large metropolis of auckland in a plane filled with other women from the small city and surrounding rural areas also needing and abortion along with their 1 support person.
sometimes you won’t have the physical and mental after effects explained and then weird things happen to your body after your abortion and you will be shit scared and feel like this is the universe punishing you so you just suck it in and cry.
Sometimes you will grieve for that life for the rest of yours.
Even with all that I've yet to know anyone who has seriously long term considered going back and reversing that decision to have an abortion. It's the one thing that has held true for all.
