Auckland is back into level three lockdown. The check points around the city have again been put in place and big events, including the round the bays run have been cancelled.
The caution is understandable. The latest two cases, a son and his mother, were potentially exposed to the UK variant B117 thorough a family member who was a casual contact of the Papatoetoe student. This shows how dangerous the virus is and why the cautious approach is the right thing to do.
There has been some social media blow back, and pointed words from the Prime Minister, against the young man for going to a gym after having had his covid test. From Jason Walls at the Herald:
Open mike is your post. For announcements, general discussion, whatever you choose. The usual rules of good behaviour apply (see the Policy). Step up to the mike …
Trigger-happy people are dangerous, guns shoot people and males get high on guns more than females. Police tried the careful approach to a guman in Aramoana and lost out.
There has to be a better program for these lost boys sent away from home by the sleazy-peazy Australian government wanting to slide out of their failures to integrate people. We are much the same here, but we haven t the option to pass the parcel. So let s have a sensible program, and give them something to ground them here, ability to turn their lives around and have a regular earning job and still keep in touch with there. Perhaps if the rehab was successful some returnees could help in working with our crims here on the basis If I can remake my life so can you . And bring in a visa system so we can keep track of what goes from here to there and vice versa. It would help if we knew how much vice is travelling over the Tasman!

It seems that the Springbok tour protests in 1981 had a deep and abiding effect on David Seymour, even though he would not be born until two years later.
He was clearly affected by the experience or lack thereof and has clearly harboured a deeply felt opposition to apartheid ever since.
But regrettably his deeply felt opposition to apartheid is not matched by his understanding of what it involves. Because he has confused the ability of part of the electorate to refuse to allow meaningful representation of Maori with the gross suppression of rights based on race.
