Alan Jones: Fights against media global warming propaganda


UPDATE:

This interview by Australian broadcaster Alan Jones with Swedish Scientist Dr Nils Axel-Morner, who claims that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is misleading humanity about runaway climate change and rampant sea level rise, and that a new solar-driven cooling period is not far off, has now been banned by Facebook.

It is an excellent interview. Anyone interested in the real truth about climate change should watch this interview before YouTube ban it as well!


Australian broadcaster Alan Jones fights back against global warming propaganda and interviews a leading scientist who debunks the myth of rampant sea level rise.

Gerry Eckhoff: Of Tee Shirts, Tights and Super Conductors


The issue of climate change is not so much about whether the climate is changing but - how do we mere mortals differentiate the science from the politics. It is the “cause celebre” embraced by the political left as a convenient reason to also dismantle capitalism and replace it with socialism or worse. 

Our Governments’ traditionally reach for the easily accessible taxation tool to solve a problem - any problem. To impose a carbon tax to counter climate change can be described as requiring the paying of real money to ensure the partial removal of a natural and invisible substance, essential for life, to someone (Government) which is no one – who is pretending to do something, while achieving nothing.

Maori nationalist parties exploit Ihumātao protest
In recent weeks the New Zealand media has given intense media coverage to an occupation led by Maori activists protesting against a proposed property development at a historic archaeological site on the Ihumātao Peninsula in South Auckland.

While it is legitimate to oppose the destruction of an important archeological site, the protest organisers have exploited the issue to promote Maori nationalism. This in turn has been taken up by the media right at the point when major struggles of workers and young people have erupted.

Bob Edlin: The not-so-secret plan for EU domination


With all the focus on Brexit turmoil, it’s easy to miss recent changes in the EU. Unfortunate, because they are important. 

The appointment of former German defence minister, Ursula von der Leyen, as president of the European Commission was rightly seen as a signal of Germany’s predominance in Europe but her political programme is even more significant. 


This can be found in the aptly-titled manifesto “A Union that strives for more“. And it surely does – in enough detail for liberal nightmares.

Mike Hosking: This Government has strangled the life out of a 'rock star' economy


Cash rate chop shows this Government has strangled the life out of a 'rock star' economy.

There is no mistaking what Adrian Orr did yesterday, cutting the official cash rate 50 points, is outside what most were expecting. A one per cent cash rate, we have never been here.

The Reserve Bank governor has cut to stimulate the economy, it's a blunt instrument, but this country is as flat as a pancake, the great days are over.

Crikey OCR


Crikey! 

Is the economy so bad that we have to have negative interest rates to keep it moving in the right direction? 

That message is in itself enough to cause business confidence to decline at a faster rate than it is already.

A Tiger by the Tail



Dear NZCPR Reader,   

This week we look at the huge influence that climate activism is having in New Zealand – including threatening our economic security, our NZCPR Guest Commentator Anthony Willy explains why the stance taken by one of the country’s main media companies in banning any challenge to their alarmism over climate change is so misguided, and our poll asks whether you have confidence in the New Zealand media when it comes to reporting climate change.

Iwi corrects New Zealand Geographic Board
Ohakune-based iwi Ngāti Rangi has corrected the New Zealand Geographic Board (NZGB) on their recent incorrect spelling of Ohakune as “Ōhakune”.

Chairman Che Wilson said he was shocked and disappointed that the NZGB failed to consult with Ngāti Rangi during the name change process.

Frank Newman: Flight-shame about to touch-down in NZ


Flight-shame. If you have not heard about it already, you soon will. It's the latest buzz coming out of the global warming pandemic and gaining a momentum that is beginning to have an impact on air travel within Europe. It could potentially have an even more significant impact on long-haul destinations like New Zealand.

An article appearing in the Washington Post says, "…growing crowd of Europeans…are spurning air travel out of concern for the environment this northern hemisphere summer."

It tells the story of Johan who travelled from Sweden to Austria. Instead of taking a two-hour flight, he chose to reduce his carbon impact by taking a 30-hour journey by rail, bus and ferry.

Barend Vlaardingerbroek: To what extent am I “my brother’s keeper”?


And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper? - Genesis 4:9

You must take reasonable care to avoid acts or omissions which you can reasonably foresee would be likely to injure your neighbour. – Lord Atkin on the duty of care, 1932

This picture of the bodies of a man and his little daughter after drowning in the Rio Grande en route to the US swept across the globe.

Karl du Fresne: On Ihumatao, child uplifts, the media and a few other things


We live in excitable times. It’s hard to recall a time when politics was more febrile and overheated.

I don’t mean in Parliament, where it’s more or less business as usual (in fact surprisingly civilised, considering the intensity of the debates raging outside), but around the fringes – in the mainstream media, and more particularly in online forums – on issues that include race, gender, sexual identity, equality, climate change, women’s rights, freedom of speech, immigration and poverty.

For this we can blame several factors, all of which are inter-connected and feed into each other.

Bob Edlin: Amidst howls of “racism”, protesters demand an Irish agency boss’s resignation


The Hands Off Our Tamariki Network has an admirable ring to its name. Here’s hoping everybody gets the message because if whanau members kept their hands off their tamaraki … well, there would be no need for a state agency to intervene and get its hands on the victims of domestic violence.

The reasons why the Oranga Tamariki agency becomes involved in caring for children has been somewhat downplayed by speakers at protest meetings who demand the state leave their mokopuna alone and insist Māori be the ones caring for their children.

Clive Bibby: A departing Mayor shares his thoughts


The retiring Gisborne Mayor Meng Foon (recently appointed as the next Race Relations  Conciliator) is well qualified to share his thoughts about the selection criteria used in choosing candidates to make up the next lot of district Councils and Health Boards.

Given his lengthy meritorious tenure as the leader of the Tairawhiti region, his advice is timely and worthy of consideration by us all.
