    I am mildy annoyed that Zimbabwe recieves aid but can afford a better and more well equipped armed services than New Zealand.
    didn't we stop sending aid after it became obvious that Bob was just dishing it all out to his cronies?

    personally i'd be up for an invasion - not kidding. it would be a piece of pss and we'd be welcomed as liberators.

      Why shouldn’t we criticise? You make it sound like the UK public signed the deal? Encase you haven’t noticed our government doesn't always do what its public wants.
      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

        I thought the public gets what the public wants?
        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

            I am mildy annoyed that Zimbabwe recieves aid but can afford a better and more well equipped armed services than New Zealand. Admittedly we in New Zealand have an armed services that consist 1 zodiac (with a slingshot on board!) , 2 yorkshire terrier attack dogs that have arthritus, a microlight and some guy David who owns a shotgun.... but its annoying that basket case of a country has more weapons.

            You don't need arms in NZ, you have Helen Clark (teeth like a shark).
