 I don't think it's necessary at all. We can't sustain as a country a hundred million dollars a day of lost economy that can never be recovered. The government's borrowing more and more and more and more money. And when they were in opposition they used to criticise John Key and Bill English for what they borrowed. But Labour has borrowed far more than that. Everywhere else in the world is abandoning lockdowns as a tactic. But it's the only tactic this government has got. Lockdowns and their push for vaccinations. And as we've seen in Israel, in Iceland, in the UK, vaccinations aren't all they're cracked up to be either. So if the government's entire strategy involves locking down a half of New Zealand's population and starving the rest of any business that comes out of that region, then it's a recipe for impovishment for this country. What the media missed in the absolute rush to protect Susie Wiles as a spokesperson that they've all shelled and pimped out around the entire country and the government ministers who rushed to defend her is that she's a rank hypocrite which was the entire point of what our story was about. That she's told everybody else not to talk to your neighbours, not to extend your bubble, not to go on massive tours around the city on your bike. The entire premise of everything that she has said about staying home, staying local and staying in your bubble was completely ignored by her, but it's just been excused away by a complicit media and government ministers who are protecting one of their own. When you contrast that with the way other people have been treated for breaching lockdown where you've had people who haven't even breached lockdown. They've had a mask exemption and been pepper sprayed in the face while on their knees as ordered by the police. You've got people in Silverdale being accosted for shopping together. You've got excessive police actions against lots of other people. You've got enforced borders all around the place, but Susie Wiles gets a free pass. It was her rank hypocrisy. Now, I happen to agree with the fact that you can go and do what you please and drive around and exercise or do whatever, see your mates, all of those sorts of things. But Susie Wiles has been one of the most vocal people who has criticised anybody who's done that and then when she did it herself she found a convenient excuse and some enablers in the government to justify her position. No, explanation's not legitimate. She's on record as saying, don't extend your bubble. We put people at risk by extending your bubble. She supported the Prime Minister, don't talk to your neighbours claim. She supported lockdowns. She supported staying local. She supported all of these things. And yet when it suited her, she went and did whatever she wanted. Susie Wiles should not be used by any media anymore. I mean, I've been vilified for daring to tell the truth about her. People are calling for me to be taken off ear and not be published and tried to smear Judith Collins with an association with me all for the terrible crime of telling the truth about a rank hypocrite. I think that Susie Wiles should just disappear. She's been proven to be a hypocrite. Hypocrisy in politics and hypocrisy in public servants and hypocrisy in those who are telling us how we should be living our lives cannot be tolerated. So we either endorse what she did and remove all the restrictions on moving around which is what the government has given her a free pass for or we just ignore what she's got to say from now on because she's a rank hypocrite. Because when people get power that it is greater than what they've normally exercised or experienced they're very low to give that up. And they've been given the power to essentially stop and search almost anybody at any point and use the public health orders as an excuse for them to do that. And every organisation has a whole bunch of bad eggs and when you give bad eggs power then they overstretch themselves. They abuse that power and this is one of the biggest problems that we've got in New Zealand is that right from the get-go from the very first lockdown the police broke the law, the government broke the law and they excused it away saying, oh but it was very important and it was for all of our health. The bottom line is this, we have a set of laws and we need to adhere to those and the government and the police and the other arms of the state are exceeding their authority but they seem to get away with it. New Zealanders need to wake up because every month that goes by where the police and other authorities are exceeding their actual statutory authority is another step closer towards totalitarianism. No, it's not justified at all. For a start the Wanaka couple have had an exemption to travel outside of Auckland's borders. Now that exemption to travel once you're outside the border doesn't stop you going anywhere else. So this fellow is a horse trainer. He could have legitimately had a client in Cambridge or Hamilton or Morrensville or somewhere like that gone to see those people or see that horse that he's looking after. Once he's outside of the border he can do as he pleases. It's rather strange that they haven't been charged yet other people who have breached the so-called borders of Auckland have been charged almost instantly. So it's going to be very hard for them to try and prosecute them on that matter but again we've got this differentiation between the elites which is people like Susie Wiles who can do what they please and somebody who isn't one of those elites and they get absolutely attacked in the media. The media hunt down their relatives, they hunt down their businesses, they try and name them, they try and shame them and then the third thing that's alarming about this is the snitch culture that's developed in New Zealand and in us and them behaviour where it's Auckland versus the rest of the country and it's frankly disgusting and it just shows how far we've slipped down the slippery path to totalitarianism where neighbours are dobbing in mates and relatives are dobbing in relatives and we've almost got a secret police culture happening where people are using the government snitch line to rat on their neighbours. It's disgusting. It's something that we shouldn't be encouraging here in New Zealand.
