Clown world: English police arrest and charge woman for silently praying outside abortion centre

27 Tuesday Dec 2022

Posted by Waikanae watchers in Uncategorized

In Jacindaland while they probably wouldn’t care about a lone person, if there was more than one person we could expect Antifa and/or the Green Party to show up, types who are aggressively intolerant of those with other views, but how do they actually know what people are silently thinking?

As has been pointed out before, British police, like their counterparts in Jacindaland, now show little interest in preventing and investigating actual crime; instead their main role is to monitor, pester and harass those who protest against government policies.

Video has emerged of police in the UK arresting a pro-life activist for standing outside an abortion centre and silently praying. The incident occurred last month outside the BPAS Robert Clinic in Kings Norton, Birmingham, but has come to light with fresh footage being shared on Twitter.

She is allowed to be stood there legally.

There is however a PSPO for that area.

PSPOs are designed to deter anti-social and problematic behaviour.

So the police have decided that silent prayer is anti-social behaviour.

Here is the specific PSPO from Birmingham City Council in which it explicitly forbids prayerhttps://t.co/6mKBioJE4c

Jacinda government floundering on farming emissions

27 Tuesday Dec 2022

Posted by Waikanae watchers in Uncategorized

≈ 4 Comments

(National Party media release)

Farmers are likely to be even more confused at Labour’s floundering approach to farming emissions following today’s announcement, National’s acting Agriculture spokesperson Todd Muller says.

“Labour is all over the show. Just a few months ago Labour were proposing to decimate sheep and beef farming by 20 per cent – now they are saying they want to work with the farming sector on how the pricing scheme will work and they will consider carbon sequestration.

“Labour’s process shows a complete disregard for farming realities, and the fact they have made this announcement four days before Christmas is cynical politics.

“Farmers have lost trust in Labour. This is too little, too late and doesn’t go far enough.

“Our farmers are the most carbon efficient in the world and presented Labour with their plan, He Waka Eke Noa, to reduce agricultural emissions back in May – and Labour chose to ignore it.  

“Instead Labour came up with their own plan that would have decimated up to 20 percent of sheep and beef farming, sent jobs and production offshore, increasing global emissions. And it limited opportunities for farmers to earn extra income from on-farm planting and carbon capture.

“Labour’s approach has not been a partnership – it has been about twisting farmers’ arms as far up their backs as the Government thought it could get away with.

“Now after feeling the brunt of the sector’s anger, Labour has announced changes to their emissions pricing scheme. This follows their earlier tweaks around carbon sequestration.

“National supports a price on agriculture emissions but we have consistently said it has to be sensible and must not send production overseas.

“National backs farmers and will build a genuine partnership with them. We will also  invest in new technology and ensure that carbon sequestered on-farm will count. It is technology, not bankruptcy, that will solve this problem.

“Details and clarity matter. All Labour has done today is muddy the water.”

remembering Otaki-born Inia te Wiata

27 Tuesday Dec 2022

Posted by Waikanae watchers in Uncategorized

≈ 1 Comment

by Geoffrey Churchman

Inia te Wiata OBE was one of the widely-celebrated names from my school days in Wellington and his premature death in London in June 1971 at the age of 56 was considered a major loss for the country. Regrettably he has largely been forgotten nowadays. He was a film actor, whakairo (carver) and artist but is best known for his fabulous bass-baritone singing voice. His recordings are widely available online.

His ashes were scattered in the cemetery at the Rangiatea Church, Otaki.

A short biography from Wikipedia

Inia te Wiata was born in into the Ngāti Raukawa ki te Tonga iwi on 10 June 1915. His father, Watene Te Wiata, died in the 1918 influenza epidemic. His mother Constance Helena Johnson remarried soon afterwards and Inia was brought up by Pairoroku and Rakate Rikihana, relatives of his father. He developed an interest in singing and first performed on stage at the age of 7. He attended the Otaki state school and was taught music by Miss Edith Miller. After primary school he attended Otaki Māori College. At the age of 13 his voice broke and settled into a bass-baritone. Afterwards he joined his cousin’s quartet, which included Wi Nicholls, Henry Tahiwi and Dan Rikihana. Other family members encouraged Te Wiata in his singing – particularly Mrs Mihi Taylor, a member of the Rikihana family. She taught both Te Wiata and his cousin to sing duets.

e Wiata moved to Tūrangawaewae at Ngāruawāhia in the Waikato region to pursue an interest in Māori carving, whakairo. He was taught by Piri Poutapu, and first worked on carvings in the Kawhia Methodist Church and the Te Winika canoe. He was employed for three years assisting with the carving of the mantelpiece of Turongo, the house of the Māori King, which opened in 1936. During his time in Ngāruawāhia he married Rose Evelyn Friar known as Ivy. They had six children Ianui, Kirikowhai, Hinemoana, Gloria, Budgie (who died as a toddler) and Inia jnr. He also did seasonal labouring work at the Horotiu Freezing works, near Hamilton. He continued his public singing during this time and was a very active member of the Waiata Māori Choir. This choir was organised by the Superintendent of the Methodist Māori Mission, Reverend A. J. Seamer, and it toured all over New Zealand. Te Wiata’s work on Turongo prevented him from joining the Choir when they toured Great Britain.

Te Wiata began to develop a circle of supporters who wished to help him further his singing education. Mr Grant of Hamilton, Mr H. D. Caro – the then Mayor of Hamilton, Dame Hilda Ross, Sir Joseph Hannan, Stewart Garland and the conductor Anderson Tyrer were all impressed by his talent. A favourable professional opinion of Te Wiata’s voice was acquired from Australian singer Peter Dawson, and Anderson Tyrer was put in charge of arranging Te Wiata’s study overseas. Fundraising began and a government grant was added to this and, in 1947 Te Wiata left for London for three years study at the Trinity College of Music.

Te Wiata worked hard at his craft. In addition to his studies at Trinity College he also took private lessons from James Kennedy Scott and language lessons at the Berlitz School of Languages. To gain more experience with opera he joined the opera company run by the English soprano Joan Cross and had a resounding success with his portrayal of Sarastro from Mozart’s The Magic Flute. As the end of the three-year study grant was approaching, the Prime Minister of New Zealand, Peter Fraser, visited England and Te Wiata took the opportunity to apply for a grant for a fourth year. This was successful.

Nearing the end of his grant, Te Wiata decided to audition for the Covent Garden Opera Company. He was successful in his audition and was told to turn up for rehearsal the next day. He was launched into his first role in the opera company as the Speaker in The Magic Flute. He went from strength to strength, taking parts in operas The Marriage of Figaro, La bohème, Billy Budd and Gloriana – the parts for the last two being specially written for him by Benjamin Britten.

As his reputation grew, Te Wiata was also approached to perform in television and film productions. He appeared in a number of films including Man of the Moment (1955) and In Search of the Castaways (1962); and also took the lead in the film The Seekers (1954). He took part in a number of television series. He did not restrict himself to singing in pure opera but also starred in musicals including The Most Happy Fella at the London Coliseum.

In 1959 his first marriage was dissolved and he married Beryl McMillan, also a singer and actor, and they had one daughter Rima Te Wiata born in 1963, who also became an actor, later an artist. Beryl gave up acting after her marriage, to concentrate on managing Te Wiata’s career.

While Te Wiata returned to New Zealand periodically, he did not settle there but continued with his singing career in the United Kingdom, living in London and creating a life there with his wife and child. Te Wiata was a popular man and had a large circle of friends and acquaintances including the comedian Spike Milligan. Te Wiata remained extremely fond of New Zealand and talked of returning there on his retirement. He maintained close links with New Zealand House in London, attending and singing at the opening of the House in 1963 and also working in the basement of New Zealand House on carving projects.

He carved a fine waka huia for Sir Thomas Macdonald, New Zealand’s High Commissioner, to present to the Worshipful Company of Butchers on Macdonald’s departure from London. Te Wiata also had a long-term project carving five very large tōtara logs. He continued working on this project in between his professional obligations but was unable to complete the work Pouihi before his death from cancer in 1971.

Here he sings “Ol’ Man River” from the musical Showboat (1959)

Silent No More New Zealand Documentary: Memorial Day

27 Tuesday Dec 2022

Posted by Waikanae watchers in Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

New Zealand Documentary Release: Memorial Day

A powerful story of the “Memorial Day” event, and the delivery of a petition to New Zealand’s Parliament in Wellington.

Brave injured people and their families gather together to share their grief and suffering at a memorial service for Rory Nairn, who died as a result of the newly invented pharmaceutical. all those who have suffered injury. This peaceful event is interrupted by a large police presence, low flying helicopters and police photographers snapping images of the sick and suffering, some in wheelchairs, for “intelligence gathering purposes.”

This is a story of a simple want for acknowledgement from government, media and medical fraternity of the injury and death caused by a newly invented pharmaceutical.

The documentary follows the stories of Casey Hodgkinson, Rob Martin and Sarah Carter, along with the first ever interview with Brett and Chris Nairn, parents of Rory Nairn, who lost his life to myocarditis in November 2021. His death was confirmed by the coroner as caused by the newly invented pharmaceutical, which had been mandated and forced onto the New Zealand public, through their work places and their everyday lives.

Last Christmas, people were intentionally divided and separated from their families at the encouragement of the New Zealand Government and its media propaganda machine. People were influenced to exclude family and friends who did not agree to take this newly invented pharmaceutical. Many injured have suffered the double insult of their friends and families turning their backs, and with doctors either not knowing what to do, or ignoring with fear of retribution from peers and medical boards, or just not caring at all.

This Christmas is the perfect time to release this documentary, so that families and friends can support their injured family members, and that those who see no wrong in this product can look deep inside themselves and find empathy for those that’s outcome from taking this newly invented pharmaceutical, which has been incredibly devastating to their health and has caused loss of life.

The fourth ‘official’ death from myocarditis caused by the newly invented pharmaceutical was reported in the New Zealand media on the December 14, but without any details of the victim’s age or sex. Why? The injured New Zealanders ask for simple public acknowledgment without ‘gaslighting,’ along with medical acknowledgement and support.

Empathy has been critically missing in these stories, and for all of the now 65,148 New Zealanders who sustained an injury from this pharmaceutical (note: Medsafe report #46 excludes the other brand of pharmaceutical used which shows 319 AEFI Reports *report #45). The two products combined have officially now caused four deaths (with others still under investigation) and a total of 65,148 reports, of which 3,709 are ranked serious.

As Chris Nairn says in the documentary: “Find your strength with others and don’t be shut down and isolated. Find people that will support you and hear your story because you are one of many.”

And as the Nairn family spend their Christmas without their son Rory, Brett Nairn expresses some of the comfort that Rory’s story is being told.: ”I feel like there’s purpose in this, as tragic and terrible as it is. Rory hasn’t died in vain, that’s why we want to tell people what’s happened. That’s why we want to share.”

To Jacinda Ardern, all those in parliament and the mainstream media this Christmas, the final word from Casey Hodgkinson: “You say ‘be kind.’ Where is that kindness? We trusted you, you used that and it really hurts. We are just people dealing with so many horrible things and you put so much more hurt on us and maybe you don’t understand or maybe that’s just ignorance, but it’s time to try to understand and be compassionate and ‘be kind’.“

“I would like to dedicate this documentary to my late mother Judy who sadly passed on the 8th of December 2022. She was my rock and was extremely proud of everything I’ve done to support the injured and lost loved ones. My mother the woman who made me who I am today, love you forever mum. Our guardian angel.” – Anna Hodgkinson

what many Maori think of Te Pati Maori

26 Monday Dec 2022

Posted by Waikanae watchers in Uncategorized

We think of them as the Clown Party, but plenty of Maori use stronger terms, including The Kupapa Party (the traitors) and Te Hoha Pati (the annoying party) — and rightly describe them as racists.
