An unexciting truth may be eclipsed by a thrilling lie. Aldous Huxley “It is interesting to note that power supply and cost was one of the core themes identified during the whole-of-Northland economic summits and one of the answers to this is right here in the heart of the North,” Mr Sabin says. Both Mr Heatley and Mr Sabin left the forum with clear take-home messages about the potential of Northland with regard to wind and geothermal generation and ways that the local MPs could support this development. “It was another excellent MP on the Job experience, and I am really pleased with how this new initiative is progressing and what I have learned in the process. Next I’ll be pumping gas at a service station in Kaeo, which will be something different again.” Those who would like to have the ‘MP on the Job’ are asked to contact Mr Sabin’s parliamentary office on 04 8178384 or email joanna.overall@parliament.govt.nz ENDS Letters to the Editor.

Dear Editor, I believe we should hold out rates payments until we receive a statement from the New Administration re the ilegality of the LTP and other illegal problems that have been created by the KDC. I know of one family who paid in advance a one off payment to the KDC for the sewer connection at Mangawhai and nothing has happened. The payment was $7000. We need lots of answers yet. Walt Beanland Letter, Now is not not NOT the time to start paying rates. Gent told the “council” meeting (actually the first of a series of public monthly get-togethers of the Department of Internal Affairs Hatchet Society), speaking out of one side of his mouth, that the banks were good for as much money as it would take. Remember- Council is a going concern!!! Then, speaking out of the other side of his mouth in order to scare the bejeezus out of the council sheeple he said that if the long term plan wasn’t (illegally) adopted the banks would ride into town with their bailiffs, ARMAGEDDON!!! (his word, at an official council meeting!).. One wonders if he moonlights as Mitt Romney’s flip-flop coach.
Civilization had too many rules for me, so I did my best to rewrite them. --Bill Cosby We absolutely do want the ANZ Bank or any other nasty bastard you can name to come in gunslinging. That is the only thing that will get the government off its fat comfortable behind to do something about this situation, a situation that is about to be repeated all over the land, and no amount of daydreaming, procrastination, crack papering, or self-delusion will stop it. The game is UP. English is absolutely wetting himself because he thought that Local Government would go on a huge spending spree to kick start the dead economy in time to save his neck, and he now finds, surprise surprise! that Local government is absolutely stony broke, the ratepayers are just emerging from a hundred years of hibernation and the political backlash from plunging them further into debt and poverty is scaring even the most cavalier of the spendthrift loonies of local government into second thoughts. The game is UP! Take a look people- The Government has just authorised the establishment of a quasi bank- in which all the ratepayers in New Zealand stand as guarantors for all the others. Who didn’t get asked? The ratepayers. Kaipara, for God’s sake, has applied to join this rort as a Guarantor!! Can you believe that?? Kaipara, the officially poorest district in the country, is going to stand behind the debts of all the others and bail them out if they fall over. Kaipara, which has already fallen over, is going to help Auckland back on its feet when it turns out that Len Brown has flown Auckland into the side of Mt Erebus. That is how it will be folks. Get it? I think it was Ruru who said that it was “most unlikely” that Kaipara would ever be called upon to provide bail out money. Why? Kaipara desperately needs it right now, despite Greg Gent’s and Ruru’s mendacious assertions about going concern, and there are at least another ten councils about to fall over from excessive debt (Read Larry Mitchell’s League Tables, and bear in mind while you do so, that he has access only to the published data from these circuses, not the true facts, which will in most cases be much much worse, as he himself discovered in the case of Kaipara where he and Jack McKerchar were good pals until near the end) Why do I say the facts will be much worse? Because the books of all these basket cases are being audited by the worst Auditing firm in the history of the world (Ernst Young included). An auditing firm that has been awarded an uncontestable multigeneration monopoly contract by the government to audit these organisations. I do wish people would look past the end of their own noses and see what is being done to them. Do you know why there are riots in the streets of Greece? Because the Greek people have finally woken up to the enormity of the rort that has been pulled on them. Well, the rort here is just as bad, and it is your government (and not just the present one- note the TOTAL silence of the Labour Party over this fiasco) that is pulling it. The government has opted for creating a feudal serfdom where the serfs will be tithed so that the Barons can continue to feast on partridge, wild boar, and sturgeon’s eggs. If the serfs lie down for this and co-operate, expect dispossession, starvation, and, Yes, death on a scale that has not been seen in this country since the 1930s.
