TOP SCOOPS
Howard’s End: Far From Stupid Commentary
- Over the last ten days or so, newspapers, TV and radio have really started to beat the drums about our economy and
the so-called brain-drain. Headlines such as “slippery slope” and “ crisis” abound. But I smell a rat - you can call me
old, but you can’t call me stupid! See... Howard’s End: You Can't Call Me stupid! [1]

management strategy: ... See... Richard Prebble's Letter from Wellington 9/10/00 [1]
Kiwi Kevin Is In The House - With A Vision
- Anyone feeling down in the dumps about NZ today need only look to Kiwi Kevin Roberts to at least try hard to cheer
them up.. “We don't have a vision right now and God knows we need one. Government aren't providing one, the media
aren't, business isn't - so it looks like it's up to you and me to take a crack!” See... At The Edge - Vision For New Zealand [1]
Off With Her Head
- As the country slides inexorably into the third world, it now appears that, as in any tin-pot dictatorship, any
dissent is to be punished. Helen Clark’s call for Roger Kerr’s head shows that free speech is no longer acceptable. See

Upton Online: The Olympics And The Chapple Analysis
- When you know you’re totally out-classed, the only thing left to do is offer undiluted praise to the victors. This
New Zealand has been doing with uncharacteristic fervour. Writes Upton Online. See... Upton-on-line: Olympic Kitsch and Closing The Gaps [1] .
