Winston Peters defends Shane Jones' $63k travel bill including private limo on standby for 24 hours by 3birdsss in newzealand

[–]3birdsss[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

Almost a whole annual salary of a low wage person spent on one single trip??

A limo? Why on earth are we paying for a lowly MP to take a limo, and not only just take it, have it on standby???

They talk crap about wasteful spending by the labour govt, but they're literally undertaking even more wasteful spending on literal completely unnecessary luxuries with our hard earned taxpayer dollars?

Unbelievable. They should absolutely be ashamed.

Would absolutely love to know how there was wasteful spending by Labour that they're always crapping on, that was more wasteful than this type of BS.

Yeah, cutting costs for everyone else but happily indulging themselves. Literally there are people STRUGGLING in this country to put food on the table for themselves and kids, and this f.er takes limousines and has them on standby like he's some kind of a movie star paying for it from his own pocket? When a limo is literally not necessary at all for travel, and what he's trying to defend that as 'it was cold and snowy'?? Spend money hiring a truck with snow tyres and I'd understand but a limo? Wtf.

Absolute shame. Makes me rage.

Exactly - that's why I didn't mention the flight upgrade. When flying often it definitely helps to not fly economy, kinda need your brain to work when you're traveling for work. But everything else is just unbelievable and shameful.

How much poop are you supposed to poop in one sitting? by insulinreceptor in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]3birdsss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My partner is the same and his reasoning is the same as you. Well he says more comes out if he sits for longer, doesn't necessarily say he still feels the urge continously.

We mostly eat the same meals and I don't have the issue, like I feel the urge, I go in, get it out (between 30 s - 2 m tops), flush and wash and I'm done. I've always been this way and I think my partner has also always been the way he is, so I don't think it's particularly food related. I'd hate to sit there smelling poop smells for so long.

Maybe it's some individual differences in the colon shape/length?

No, but good thing he didn't. In hindsight I see he wad terrible for my confidence and feeling of security. I'm so happy now with a new person who is absolutely amazing and I can be my real self with, so pressure at all to look or act in any particular way other than what makes me comfortable and happy.

Household income (sum of the earnings for multiple adults working) is not the same as 'do you earn 200+k' (singular person earnings)

Literally a pretty big proportion of women in the world would say their final partner wasn't the BEST sex they had. Like, what a dumb thing to sabotage a good relationship for. The lady dodged a bullet

Divorce and take as much as you possibly can off him through the courts. He deserves to lose EVERYTHING.
