1.3 million homes in NZ were built before 2000. Living areas and bedrooms in winter are 6°C below WHO healthy minimum indoor temp of 18°C. 70% of all NZ homes have no underfloor and insufficient ceiling insulation. Cost of A&E for 1 respiratory case is about the same as insulating an entire house
What utter heartless, mindless bullshit are these fools up to now?! National are slaves to slumlords! Government considers rolling back insulation standards www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...
Government considers rolling back insulation standardswww.rnz.co.nz The changes made last year were the first significant upgrades to minimum requirements for housing in more than a decade.
Unhealthy livingarchitecturenow.co.nz We spend 70% of our time in our homes, yet many New Zealand homes are up to 6 degrees below the WHO's minimum of 18 degrees.

Remember: Donald Trump jumping to his feet and shaking his fist in the middle of an assassination attempt is not a sign that it's staged; it's a sign that he's an idiot.

I’ve got nothing against BTS and their ARMY, but how the ever-living feck do I get them off my timeline without individually blocking/muting each one?

Is there any lesson to be taken from the French moderate liberal and left earnestly trying to cooperate and help one another defeat a reactionary threat to democracy? Yes there is, until anyone one degree off from my personal political leanings pisses me off over anything, and I mean anything.

This is good. This is VERY GOOD. The tip I would leave for the quality of that joke, and the likely face the customer made, would be large.

No matter how borked the UK Tories are, you’ll get Daily Telegraph windbags like this one saying that they weren’t RW enough. May their lack of self-awareness continue for decades: www.nzherald.co.nz/world/we-war...

obviously not the biggest reason why interest in Christianity has waned over the past 100 years but i think we gotta start illuminating the manuscripts again. everybody likes to see a little guy riding a snail or getting stabbed in the balls by a rabbit off to the side of Ephesians

Over 140 suppliers to Hyundai are impacted by Nicola Willis’s decision to cancel the ferry contract. That will cause HMD much shame & embarrassment. I must underscore how absolutely humiliating this is for New Zealand. We look unreliable & untrustworthy
Why cancellation of Cook Strait mega ferry contract is taking so longwww.nzherald.co.nz Maritime legal experts have been going through Hyundai Mipo Dockyard's claim line by line.

So many people see this and get a moment of amusement and surprise but never think more about it: This is all of ancient history and archaeology: All of the fatty nooks and crannies lost to the decay of time until we take what remains and reimagine it as a leaner, purpose-built, brutal existence.
