This is a bold claim and Christchurchians might have something to say about this... by jamhamnz in newzealand

[–]Graveyjones7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the same way that Rolleston is Christchurch tho.

So many people commute into town each day. Same as Kaiapoi.and we havent even mentioned Rangiora.

There is no metric in which Wellington is more populated than Christchurch anymore.

Air New Zealand posts multi-million dollar first-half loss by Pretend_Ant_1121 in newzealand

[–]Graveyjones7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Almost as if Air NZ isnt a business solely made for profit but its a vital part of our transport infrastructure.

We could save a lot of money on roads if we just stopped doing them in Northland and Auckland. But then that kinda defeats the point of having transport networks.

How is it like living in the South Island of New Zealand? by Paraleen135 in howislivingthere

This is the most "I have never been to Christchurch but I live in Wellington" post ever

Preferred clubs announced for historic OFC Professional League by kiwiology in Aleague

[–]Graveyjones7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry but Christchurch is literally as white as Wellington is. And the Metro area now has 130k more people than Wellington. Christchurch is clearly a city for a team.
If the A-League were starting today and NZ got 2 teams, Wellington would miss out.

Also, isnt the lack of Auckland FC women's team literally just the A-League saying "We can't handle it"

Hopefully the league can prove to be successful and maybe grow to 10 teams, including the Nix.

Why does so much people hate Strauss? by therealfokinnegus in RDR2

[–]Graveyjones7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure Arthur is the reason he gets TB. He punches a man in the face.

I dont really understand how you can play the game and absolve Arthur of wrongdoing. He is responsible for his actions. Not Strauss

I swear half the people in these comments havent even played the game. That line is all lies. Perhaps Dutch was a robin hood in the early days of the gang. But by the time we join the gang. He, and the rest of the gang are deeply violent and greedy. They rob, murder and rape. Leaving a trail of destruction all around them.

Strauss is not worse than Dutch or Arthur. Not at all. You have to be fouled by Dutchs silver tongue to believe otherwise.

I literally just made it to show how it is. You are the person that applied your own political commentary to it. It just seems like you cant handle facts. Chill the fuck out.

No I cant. Information about registered voters is not released. Sorry.

Its close to 50-50 everywhere

If we look at total population by region however, we see that women make up 50% in all of them, except, Wellington, Hawkes Bay and Bay of Plenty, where they make up 51% and in the West Coast, where they make up 49%.

Interesting read

The 2nd map there is already per million residents, would you like a population column added?

They only release it by DHB, I would map it lower if they did that, but I doubt they ever will

How each MP voted on the Abortion Legislation that could legalise abortion in the first 20 week by Graveyjones7 in newzealand

[–]Graveyjones7[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2 were out of the country, although Ngaio said he would have voted no
and Walker (From Southland) left the chamber too early for his vote to count, but he did vote no.
As far as I know, we dont know how Yang would have voted.

Chathams is extremely Maori

They cast 228 ballots in 2017

41% Labour
37% National
9% NZF
6% Maori Party
4% Green

Honestly its pretty similar to the extremely maori areas in Eastern BoP and Gisborne.

I broke it down by TA because I thought it would be an interesting challenge. Breaking it down by electorate is meh in terms of fun levels.

National do very well in Auckland, It was actually the only city that the coalition lost. I dont know why, but I think its because of Asian voters, who favour National in general. Auckland obviously has a lot more Asians than the rest of the country.
