A general guideline – post opinion on or excerpts from and links to blog posts or comments of interest, whether they are praise, criticism, pointing out issues or sharing useful information.

Corky
/ 3rd November 2018Still has the cold killer look. This women missed her calling on the RIGHT side of politics.
”She has been wading in to a few issues since returning to New Zealand from her stint in the UN.”
It must be unimaginably boring for her back in New Zealand. She’s a rebel looking for a cause.
