Jeepers. Wondered why everything had gone so quiet.

If he was still just a platoon commander, none of this would matter, but it’s disconcerting coming from someone in the role he has somehow stumbled into.

It’s entirely predictable that Peters at this time would disconnect himself from any responsibility for the Coalition’s economic policy failure. Maybe the rest of the coalition will now disassociate themselves from his highly idiosyncratic foreign policy?

Shenzhen has the most skyscrapers over 200 meters tall of any city in the world. This city was built into what it is today in just 47 years. It is China's technology hub, a place where ideas become reality and dreams are more than just dreams.

It took this administration *SEVEN MONTHS* to realize we can’t grow coffee & bananas in the United States

A hemisphere is a lot of space to apparently exempt from international law. It wouldn’t leave him with a lot to be able to say if China started doing the same stuff in its part of the world eg South China Sea.

The severe effect of last year’s 60% increase in visitor visa fees and trebling of the IVL on the Chinese tourist market is shown clearly in the latest international visitor arrival statistics just released. Visitor arrivals from China for the month of September 2025 were down by

This is outrageous

How to make yourself look even more vindictive, nasty and bullying than already achieved.

Pretty funny comment by the just-departed head of MI6 Richard Moore on the current mass paranoia in his country around Chinese spying: "I'm not very keen on people being over-moralistic about the fact of spying," because "he led an organization which did precisely that". Good of

Carl Worker Agree entirely. I bring small groups of Chinese friends to NZ. The high cost of NZ visa applications is a significant factor in their choosing not to come to NZ. That means less money in NZ Kiwis back pockets.

Dave Bromwich It’s an obvious blunder by the government, but the real issue is their stubborn refusal to acknowledge and fix it by dropping the visa fee to a level competitive with Australia. It is bizarre, to the extent of making a reasonable person wonder if they are actually happy to see

Little Tones workersunite@bsky Visa free travel, realistically, remains some way off for both NZ and Aus. The job is to make the visa process as frictionless and inexpensive as possible. NZ is way behind on both counts. Our current government doesn’t seem to care. A clueless bunch.

I thought they were eating our cats and dogs? Turns out they brought their own beef?
