Speaker: SIBs: The reality of…, in reply to
Yes, but to get “justice”, we need money, or pro bono favourable lawyers:
http://eveningreport.nz/2015/03/24/frances-joychild-qc-on-the-fading-star-of-the-rule-of-law/The battle has never been harder for decades now, to get any justice, any justice at all, in little ol NZ.
But the bastards, if they lose in the Courts, will just change the bloody law...as they did with the PHDAct(2). It's like that whole thing never happened.
What "Atkinson" did was establish, just for a wee while, entitlement to funded care for MOH:DSS disabled. This was very, very significant...although most folk don't recognise it.
Hats off to Francis Joychild (and the other members of the OHRP team)....but it was really all for nothing.

Access: Disability as a wicked policy problem, in reply to
Sick really, what comes from those quarters.
I literally do feel sick reading the latest missive from the Miserly. Every time I read the word "choice", I can't help but wonder if there is an evil person generating these documents who enjoys tormenting us.
They are certainly making us suffer for the family carers case....no mention in the new fucking strategy about the abysmal failure that is FFC.
The decade plus of legal wrangling may well have never happened.
And all for something that our ACC cousins have been entitled to for decades.
More wedges firmly in place.
And its goodnight from me.

Up Front: Not Uniform, in reply to
A long, long time ago Milo, who were sponsoring the NZ women's netball wanted to have the Milo logo emblazoned on the seat of the ladies knickers....went down like a cup of cold sick...

Up Front: Not Uniform, in reply to
Uniform: a logic-free zone.
The ban against wearing shorts under the netball tunics. Never got it. Many of the girls would be playing with one hand holding down the edge of their tunics. There was a minor revolt, with many of the girls wearing black knit shorts or boylegs under their skirts. Officials got stroppy.

But, but, it the Code!
Perhaps we should be slamming the thing down till the dust rises....

Yes, and they should read well, but nowhere in their website or newsletter do they mention...http://www.thewisegroup.co.uk/content/
It could be a complete coincidence, no relation at all.
But I am a suspicious old biddy....and this outfit tweaks my antennae...
