PUBLIC ADDRESS 17/11/04 - Have a go

Have a go if you're hard enough ... | Nov 17, 2004 10:27
Russell Brown's Hard News

I can't help but think that the National Party's refusal to participate in the government's constitutional review indicates a fatal lack of confidence. Even if everything Don Brash said about the review yesterday is true - that it is a political move aimed at defusing the Treaty issue...

COMMENT

Gordon Campbell: On More Threats To Democracy From David Seymour

The Regulatory Standards Bill is another vehicle for constitutional change launched under the guise of sensible, garden-variety law-making.

Martin LeFevre - Meditations: Good Does Not Fight Evil, But Stands Firm And Dispels It

The die is cast where Trump, the United States and the post-World War II order are concerned. The failure of insight and imagination by academic, media and political elites, exemplified in the moronic “good Trump, bad Trump” fantasy, feeds the widespread hopelessness and paralysis.

Binoy Kampmark: Bitter Harvests - The Gaza Ceasefire

Whoever claims credit for these latest developments hardly lessens the bitterness of the harvest. The prevarications, delays and obstructions have permitted massive destruction and loss of life to take place. Cowardice and bad faith have been the hallmarks of the process.

Binoy Kampmark: Situation Critical - UNRWA And Its Continued Operations

Any ceasefire, already soured by the killing of over 100 Palestinians since its announcement, does little to address the institutional chasm that will be left were UNRWA to cease operating in any meaningful way.

Martin LeFevre - Meditations: Waiting For Trump - How Bad Will It Be?

There aren’t two America’s anymore than there are two political parties. There’s just one, and it’s Trump’s America. He will do his worst.

Ramzy Baroud: The Gaza Genocide - The Fall Of Israel’s Immunity
