• Rally for Democracy

    From Rich80105@3:770/3 to All on Saturday, September 10, 2016 10:15:49
    1- 7pm, Victoria Park, Auckland, today

    Details
    New Zealanders from all walks of life are coming together on 10th
    September in a Day of Action that will affirm our democratic rights
    and support initiatives to build a fairer and more sustainable
    society. There will be rallies, marches, music and speeches, in
    family-friendly events that bring together a powerful movement for
    change in towns and cities across Aotearoa New Zealand.

    This is a time when families are struggling with high housing costs,
    insecure work and stagnant wages. The gaps between the haves and
    have-nots are widening in our society. Our rivers and seas are being
    polluted, our native species are being wiped out and we are failing to
    curb climate emissions.

    The government is allowing tax advantages for multinationals and the
    wealthy, and planning to privatise social services. They are ratifying
    the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA) which would give new
    rights to foreign corporations to sue our government over
    democratically-agreed laws and policies, and override te Tiriti
    rights.

    Our peace-loving country is about to host an international weapons
    show and give licences for deep sea oil drilling. It’s time to call a
    halt. There are already too many advantages for corporations and the
    wealthy. We need to reclaim our rights.

    This is not the society we want to be. Through our Day of Action, we
    will ‘join the dots’ between our issues and reclaim democratic rights
    for citizens.

    Our Day of Action on 10 September is a protest, but also an
    affirmation of our hopes and aspirations for a fairer, more just, more sustainable society. We will highlight and celebrate the positive
    alternatives in communities in Aotearoa, inviting participation from
    all those who are building a better future, whether through community
    housing, supporting refugees and the homeless, growing organics and
    working in community gardens, creating transport alternatives and
    community renewable energy, divesting from fossil fuels, or supporting community finance and local exchanges schemes.

    Planning for the Day of Action in each community is being led by local
    TPPA coalitions, and coordinated by the It’s Our Future network,
    together with a growing number of allies.

    Please join with the local TPPA campaign in your community to plan a
    day of action.

    Details of the events will follow. More details and links to It's Our
    Future local groups can be found on the website
    https://itsourfuture.org.nz/

    Facebook events will be added at
    https://www.facebook.com/ItsOurFutureNZ/ as venues and times are
    confirmed for the myriad of events being held around the country on
    that day…

    I am sure the stink of your hypocrisy will not worry anyone, JohnO -
    nearly all of them will be voters, with a vote just as effective as
    yours.

    The Nats have pissed off quite a few people with their "born to rule" attitudes. You may be pleased to know that the Nats stealth erosion of
    property rights is likely to be one of the things the protestors
    object to.

    I was, as you very well know, not talking about the government but the incompetent wannabe's who go to these rallies. You still can't avoid sarcasm can you?

    There is nothing stealthy about the changes they have introduced. every last one (good or bad) went through parliament and was eventually gazetted. Normal process just like the last Labour government.
    is likely to be one of the things the protestors
    object to.
    Just to mirror your inadequate sarcasm why would anybody protest about the right to own property?

    "fortunately each one of these"- presumably yu are referring to
    political rallies.
    "does harm to those who think they have an ineffable right to
    election"- clearly political rallies do no harm to opposition parties,
    and in any event National are well known as the "born to rule" party -
    and the issues being raised have already harmed National Party
    support.
    No sarcasm, just truth.

    Tony


    The second part of the bill passed under urgency contained a reduction
    in provision for the removal of the right of prior landowners of land
    taken under the Public Works Act to be offered their land back. This
    is a valuable right preserved under sections 40 to 42 of the Public
    Works Act 1981. If land is taken compulsorily but then no longer
    needed then as long as certain conditions are met it is meant to be
    offered back to the original owner of the land or their successor.

    The bill changes this right - and passing it under urgency is an
    appalling abuse of parliament. The bill amended section 15 of the
    Housing Act 1955 and states that “to avoid doubt, sections 40 to 42 of
    the Public Works Act 1981 do not apply (and have never applied) to the
    disposal of State housing land …”. It then lists various
    circumstances where the amendment applies.

    There was of course never any doubt about when the Public Works Act
    applies - they were weakening those provisions, which is effectively
    changing contracts with private owners whose land has been taken in
    the past under the Public Works Act. The Regulatory Impact Statement
    should have referred to this change, but as is becoming typical of
    this dishonest government, it did not.

    There is no protest about teh right to own property - one of the
    matters being objected to is the restrospective impact of legislation
    change that reduces the right to buy back land taken by the government
    under the Public Works Act. I am suprised that you support such
    retrospective diminishment of individual propoerty rights, Tony.

    So what is the justification to vandalize windows with spray?
    Then property rights are not the strong point of luddites.

    Vandalising property in that way would be appalling, Liberty. I do not
    believe that National have done that - they have just made it possible
    to sell off land that should be returned to original owners if not
    needed for the original purpose it was taken. What are you talking
    about?

    Yup. Just another Labour Party front organisation. Bit of a joke really
    when you consider Labour hasn't a clue about the real meaning of
    democracy as evidenced by their giving unions a twenty percent vote in
    the leadership vote and others multiple votes in the same farce.

    You will upset some with that perceptive comment, george. You are of
    course correct; National will take no notice of a protest that seeks
    public participation in issues of concern to them - their concern is
    solely with those that vote for them; and they identify even more
    strongly with those that show their support through financial
    constributions to the party. National may however prefer that you not
    draw too much attention to the reality that they regard legislation as
    a valuable commodity available for purchase.

    I agree Tony. It was at least probably safer than driving a tractor
    up the steps of parliament among endangering other people - or
    arranging trucks to clog roads for a much longer period protesting
    against road user charges (which have I believe been further increased
    under the current government, without any "industry" protest . .)

    Can you suggest a better way for people to have their concerns heard?

    Thanks, I hadn't seen that article, which is why I asked the question.

    I confirm my opinion that vandalising property as you described is
    appalling, although the use of glue rather than destructive sparys
    like acid may not meet many people's concept of vandalism - but I
    agree that they should not have glued paper to bank windows. The
    article didn;t seem to make much of the "vandalism"", ending the
    article with
    "But despite the disruption to some people's Saturday events, police
    said the group was peaceful and no arrests were made."

    From the video the culprits are probably identifiable, and the police
    may well have been present when the gluing occured - doubtless the
    bank can consider suing to recover any loss from the "vandalism", and
    that is as it should be.

    More appalling of course is the National Party, with assistance from
    ACT and UF, reducing property rights retrospectively - I note that you
    and others have carefully avoided that issue - do you really not care
    about property rights, "Liberty"? I must say I was surprised to hear
    the ACT MP support the stripping of rights - his action reinforces
    that he is of course very beholden to National, and will reduce his
    credibility as having some principals - but that will probably not
    matter to the voters in Epsom - they will votes as National tells
    them.

    My comment had absolutely nothing to do with politics and predicatbly you had to make the thread political. The answer to your innane question is yes of course I can -
    1. Use your vote in national and local elections to get the candidate you want. 2. Have a meeting in Hagley Park or the Auckland Domain or one of a hundred other places around the country
    3. Place articles in the newspapers
    4. Get interviewed on television

    Of course TV3 news didn't condemn the vandalism.
    They are comrades in arms. Why else would a Marxist Minto
    be given air time.


    "But despite the disruption to some people's Saturday events, police

    May be the police didn't want the great unwashed in their clean cells.

    From the video the culprits are probably identifiable, and the police

    So the bank is forced has to spend more than what the damage cost.

    and your comrades were marching for democracy. That has about as much credibility as Minto and his comrades rioting in 1981 to help the black south Africans.
    which was all a load of crap.
    It has all to do with Minto's deluded socialist dream.

    all those who are building a better future, whether through community >housing, supporting refugees and the homeless, growing organics and
    working in community gardens, creating transport alternatives and
    community renewable energy, divesting from fossil fuels, or supporting >community finance and local exchanges schemes.

    Planning for the Day of Action in each community is being led by local
    TPPA coalitions, and coordinated by the It’s Our Future network,
    together with a growing number of allies.

    Please join with the local TPPA campaign in your community to plan a
    day of action.

    Details of the events will follow. More details and links to It's Our
    Future local groups can be found on the website
    https://itsourfuture.org.nz/

    Facebook events will be added at
    https://www.facebook.com/ItsOurFutureNZ/ as venues and times are
    confirmed for the myriad of events being held around the country on
    that day…

    This has nothing at all to do with democracy, it has everything to do with thinly veiled political attempts to subvert common decency at the expense of ordinary caring people going about their daily lives. The very same people that exercised their democratic privilege and elected a government. I recall being stopped on my way to catch an airplane many years ago by an extremely officious little man who wanted to know where I was going and how often I did it etc. I later learned it had happened all over the region in an attempt to understand traffic flows and it was rush hour! I was terse but polite to him and explained that the delays he was causing made it possible that I may miss my plane and asked him to move away, he argued but a very large Traffic Officer walked up to him and told him to move back. That wasn't political, merely incompetent and unfairly intrusive . This series of actions is both political and incompetent and unfairly intrusive.

    Rich look up the meaning of corrupt.

    Being nice to the great unwashed is not corrupt.

    Stealing $800grand and Retrospectively legalizing was corrupt.

    To stop a legal case against the then dear Leader was corrupt.

    No racialism is totally unacceptable.
    What is worse is labour cherry picking.
    In 1981 they crawled up Minto and his goons

    In reality the riots where just an excuse to have a go

    The second part of the bill passed under urgency contained a reduction
    in provision for the removal of the right of prior landowners of land
    taken under the Public Works Act to be offered their land back. This
    is a valuable right preserved under sections 40 to 42 of the Public
    Works Act 1981. If land is taken compulsorily but then no longer
    needed then as long as certain conditions are met it is meant to be
    offered back to the original owner of the land or their successor.
    A properly debated and gazetted decision by a majority in parliaament - do you have a problem with democracy?

    The bill changes this right - and passing it under urgency is an
    appalling abuse of parliament. The bill amended section 15 of the
    Housing Act 1955 and states that “to avoid doubt, sections 40 to 42 of
    the Public Works Act 1981 do not apply (and have never applied) to the >disposal of State housing land …”. It then lists various
    circumstances where the amendment applies.

    There was of course never any doubt about when the Public Works Act
    applies - they were weakening those provisions, which is effectively >changing contracts with private owners whose land has been taken in
    the past under the Public Works Act. The Regulatory Impact Statement
    should have referred to this change, but as is becoming typical of
    this dishonest government, it did not.

    There is no protest about teh right to own property - one of the
    matters being objected to is the restrospective impact of legislation
    change that reduces the right to buy back land taken by the government
    under the Public Works Act. I am suprised that you support such
    retrospective diminishment of individual propoerty rights, Tony.
    I am surprosed that you do not understand the difference between retrospective and retroactive.
    In any event retroactive legislation is not new; many governments have done that including Labour.

    Tony

    Thanks you for drawing the difference to my attention. The "Duynhoven"
    law was retroactive. The term retrospective is however commonly used
    in similar situations, e.g. see http://equaljusticeproject.co.nz/2015/09/amicus-curiae-retrospective-legislation-a-no-winz-proposition/

    The change put through under urgency recently leaves any past
    settlements under the Public Works act unchanged, but does potentially
    affect future disposal by the government of property taken under the
    Public Works Act - whether you prefer retrospective or retroactive, it
    is effectively legislation to change a property contract by one party
    against the interests of the other party, affecting the future of both
    parties.

    Are you in favour of the changes put through by the government to such
    property disposal requirements, Tony?

    The Nats have pissed off quite a few people with their "born to rule"
    attitudes. You may be pleased to know that the Nats stealth erosion of
    property rights is likely to be one of the things the protestors
    object to.

    Labour and the Greens have promised to erode our property rights overtly via >increased taxation.
    They are likely to remove the inconsistency regarding capital gains on investment properties, and to fix the large number of companies who
    pay little tax through various structural devices.

    Tax revenue does need to increase because National's reductions that

    The second part of the bill passed under urgency contained a reduction
    in provision for the removal of the right of prior landowners of land >>>taken under the Public Works Act to be offered their land back. This
    is a valuable right preserved under sections 40 to 42 of the Public
    Works Act 1981. If land is taken compulsorily but then no longer

    A properly debated and gazetted decision by a majority in parliaament - do >>you

    The bill changes this right - and passing it under urgency is an >>>appalling abuse of parliament. The bill amended section 15 of the
    Housing Act 1955 and states that “to avoid doubt, sections 40 to 42 of >>>the Public Works Act 1981 do not apply (and have never applied) to the >>>disposal of State housing land …”. It then lists various
    circumstances where the amendment applies.

    There was of course never any doubt about when the Public Works Act >>>applies - they were weakening those provisions, which is effectively >>>changing contracts with private owners whose land has been taken in

    Thanks you for drawing the difference to my attention. The "Duynhoven"
    law was retroactive. The term retrospective is however commonly used
    in similar situations, e.g. see

    The change put through under urgency recently leaves any past
    settlements under the Public Works act unchanged, but does potentially
    affect future disposal by the government of property taken under the
    Public Works Act - whether you prefer retrospective or retroactive, it
    It is not a matter of preference it is a matter of correctness!
    is effectively legislation to change a property contract by one party

    That is what legislation often does.

    Are you in favour of the changes put through by the government to such >property disposal requirements, Tony?
    I have no opinion.

    Yup. Just another Labour Party front organisation. Bit of a joke really
    when you consider Labour hasn't a clue about the real meaning of
    democracy as evidenced by their giving unions a twenty percent vote in
    the leadership vote and others multiple votes in the same farce.

    And that the have gender quotas which is very undemocratic.

    attitudes. You may be pleased to know that the Nats stealth erosion of
    property rights is likely to be one of the things the protestors
    object to.

    Labour and the Greens have promised to erode our property rights overtly >>via increased taxation.
    They are likely to remove the inconsistency regarding capital gains on investment properties, and to fix the large number of companies who
    pay little tax through various structural devices.

    So that's a "yes" then, Labour do intend to further erode out property
    rights.

    Tax revenue does need to increase because National's reductions that
    favoured the wealthy

    The reductions favoured everyone.

    were not supportable with their increased
    spending and the level of borrowing is such that it is effectively a
    tax on future revenues.

    They should have reduced spending considerably.

    Getting overseas shareholders and company
    owners to pay their fair level of tax may well be enough to cover much
    of the shortfall.

    There is nothing fair about tax.

    In addition many New Zealand companies are earning
    less profit than desirable due to so many New Zealanders in such hard economic circumstances. National has had to increase accomodation
    supplements and social welfare payments generall. Labour / Green are
    likely to make changes to employment law to reduce destructive

    What "destructive employment practices"?

    and make a modest increase in the minimum wage
    which may enable a reductoin in Working for family payments, which are effectively a subsidy to companies on wages. Those wanting a National government are those who are frightened of fair competition and a fiar market. In any case, Labour have a history of saving; National spend
    and borrow.

    Thanks for confirming that the creeping socialism of labour will see our property rights further eroded.

    I agree Tony. It was at least probably safer than driving a tractor
    up the steps of parliament among endangering other people - or
    arranging trucks to clog roads for a much longer period protesting
    against road user charges (which have I believe been further increased
    under the current government, without any "industry" protest . .)


    BULLSHIT! The tractor driver only put his life at risk. Your mates don't
    give a stuff about theirs or the lives of others. Demonstrated perfectly

    Can you suggest a better way for people to have their concerns heard?

    The Nats have pissed off quite a few people with their "born to rule"
    attitudes. You may be pleased to know that the Nats stealth erosion of
    property rights is likely to be one of the things the protestors
    object to.

    Labour and the Greens have promised to erode our property rights overtly via >> increased taxation.
    They are likely to remove the inconsistency regarding capital gains on investment properties, and to fix the large number of companies who
    pay little tax through various structural devices.

    Tax revenue does need to increase because National's reductions that
    favoured the wealthy were not supportable with their increased
    spending and the level of borrowing is such that it is effectively a
    tax on future revenues. Getting overseas shareholders and company
    owners to pay their fair level of tax may well be enough to cover much
    of the shortfall. In addition many New Zealand companies are earning
    less profit than desirable due to so many New Zealanders in such hard economic circumstances. National has had to increase accomodation
    supplements and social welfare payments generall. Labour / Green are
    likely to make changes to employment law to reduce destructive
    employment practices, and make a modest increase in the minimum wage
    which may enable a reductoin in Working for family payments, which are effectively a subsidy to companies on wages. Those wanting a National government are those who are frightened of fair competition and a fiar market. In any case, Labour have a history of saving; National spend
    and borrow.

    Fuck off Rich. This whole pathetic argument has been debunked and shown
    to be nothing but lies and smears so often I'd have thought even a
    trolling cretin like you would realise nobody believes the bullshit
    these days! Try being a bit more reasonable and pick up some
    comprehension skills if your interested in regaining any of the little credibility you had when you first started posting here.

    The second part of the bill passed under urgency contained a reduction >>>>>>in provision for the removal of the right of prior landowners of land >>>>>>taken under the Public Works Act to be offered their land back.

    The bill changes this right - and passing it under urgency is an >>>>>>appalling abuse of parliament.

    Thanks you for drawing the difference to my attention. The "Duynhoven" >>>>law was retroactive. The term retrospective is however commonly used
    in similar situations, e.g. see

    That is what legislation often does.
    What nonsense.

    That is the intention you clod.

    Are you in favour of the changes put through by the government to such >>>>property disposal requirements, Tony?
    I have no opinion.
    How very careful of you. Sanctity of contract and property rights
    clearly mean little to you. Much easier to argue word usage - that is >>after all the stock in trade of spin merchants keen to distract from

    You have failed to provide an example of a lie that I have told
    Just one example Rich - just one!
