RIGHTING WRONGS?

Old Robert, his imaginary god bless him, is still slavishly following The Catholic Church's right of centre line in politics and societal mores.

Here's what he wrote in his post this morning:
 

"The elections must be coming up. My union wants me to vote Labour. I haven't heard that National has done anything bad except killing lots of little babies."

Maybe he was out of the country when the current New Zealand coalition government (National, ACT, and NZ First)  provided tax cuts to property investors, implemented broad public service cuts, reduced the free school lunch program, slowed and cancelled environmental initiatives, repealed smoke-free laws, and held up advancement of legislation regarding Te Tiriti o Waitangi. 

Oh! Hold on - he was here in New Zealand and has only ever been away for two weeks.

You most likely meant '000 Christ!'

Nope, dope.

888 = Jesus

I didn't know that you spoke Greek.
Mind you, at your age probably 'all things are Greek to you'.

Peter liked tennis and golf
But he also liked hide and seek.
In 3P he studied Latin at school
What a pity he didn't learn Greek.

Why shouldn't we call a woman "an adult human biological female"? They are getting that right. An indirect consequence will be forbidding non women (girls under 20 for instance) from having abortions. That's got to be good.

Pull up your pants, Rob.
