New Zealand has a serious problem with alcohol.
The reporting in this article about this riot in Whangamata is part of the issue. At no stage does it address the issue of this class A drug s vice like grasp over the levers of control in this country. The liquor industry, politicians and a liberal culture is responsible for this.
While I agree with the words Sandra Goudie about rich self-indulgent teenagers, it would be interesting to see what her voting record is on alcohol. ....

It has never ceased to surprise me that those who profit at the expense of others are so unaware of the harm suffered by those they exploit, and are so convinced that they have a right to do the exploiting and that their profit is a proper and justifiable reward .

I have been comparing the leadership of Trump (US) and Johnson (UK). Johnson got a Brexit deal over the line and he has not been weak in enforcing lockdowns. Trump is anti lockdown and has not signed a major new trade deal.

Here are a few excerpts from the article that is, in xanthe s opinion
total crap! IMHO these excerpts indicate the article is
not total crap.
On masks, lockdown, managed isolation and a centralised Public Health Agency, he has lobbied for new and more innovative measures to fight Covid-19 and ultimately succeeded in getting the Government on-side. Perhaps his greatest achievement, however, was convincing the Government to go for elimination.

It was so easy to turn the tap off. They finally regulated the allowable levels of Campylobacter
in chicken and our rates halved in three months. It reminded me that regulation and strong government is often what you need. I thought the industry was just doing what it was allowed to do but actually it was government that was asleep at the wheel. ....
