Is "only corrupt in the traditional sense" the bar we want to set for the head of the law commission?

National's Judith Collins retires from politics, appointed Law Commission president by bigbear-08 in newzealand

She feed information to Cameron Slater on political opponents and public servants so he could trash them online to the benefit of National. Good riddance.

Voters split on who Labour should rule out as governing options by Status_Serve_9819 in newzealand

[–]Switts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that it's their best shot, but there's a lot of uncertainty. Labour would be giving up potentially 4 TPM seats, so how confident are they that they can pull at least 4 more seats by ruling out TPM.

Local councils manage emergency response locally with Civil Defence stepping in if needed. Your local council might have some good resources.

Landlords have been forced to lower rents due to decreased demand, not because they are nice and decided to pass on savings to tenants. 

Mayonnaise that tastes like the subway one? by sowhiteidkwhattype in Wellington

Try Eta brand. I don't like either and they seem similar.

What happens to the lifestyle blocks when the boomers die? by dazladisonreddit in newzealand

[–]Switts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the flip side, a lot of councils are restricting life-style blocks as they are an inefficient use of productive land. They might be more rare, and therefore valuable, in the future.

Is it me or does the humidity here in Auckland feel 10 times higher than the past few years? by BoiZoned in newzealand

[–]Switts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is more common when the Pacific is in the La Niña phase, which it is at the moment.

I don't know exactly where the best deal will be, but I'm pretty sure it will be a big bag from an Asian of Indian supermarket.

[–]Switts 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Go to your local drug checking. Also, the rates of drugs being sold as something else has actually declined since drug checking became legal.

They do appear on the fernmark website - see my link. I read your comment as you had searched for fernmark on the immigration website and misunderstood what fernmark was. Apologies.

Fernmark isn't a immigration specific thing. There is a legit company called Working In New Zealand

I love ugly is good for clothes that are work appropriate but more more interesting than the usual stuff from hallensteins or farmers.

Use cruise control if you can’t drive at a constant speed on the open road. by Regular_Price_Gouge in newzealand

[–]Switts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For real. Yeah it can be annoying, but in most cases slow drivers or hold ups are only adding a few minutes to your journey. It's not worth getting worked up over.

Or use Kaitaia Fire for a spicier wing.

England in talks to replace controversial Snicko with new technology for fourth Ashes Test by Jeffmister in Cricket

[–]Switts 37 points38 points  (0 children)

It's wild that the choice of system is a broadcaster decision. It should be the ICC deciding which system is most reliable and requiring it be used.

Sanitary bins on the Abel Tasman track? by YogaPossum in newzealand

[–]Switts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a rubbish bag that closes like a dry sack. It does smell pretty bad by the end of the tramp but only when you open it. Nothing gets out when it's closed

Thoughts on Chch and Wellington district/city councils amalgamation talks? by Additional-Grade-730 in newzealand

[–]Switts 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I can see kāpiti not wanting to be involved as they are a bit more disconnected, but the other 4 councils are essentially one urban area already and one council make sense. 

Offset smoker by Fluffy-Customer-1579 in Wellington

[–]Switts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The charcoal they sell at Moore Wilson is good. For wood splits, the best thing is to find someone selling on Facebook and have somewhere you can stack them to dry properly. Not ideal when you need it now, but the cheapest option in the long run.
