Gordon Campbell: On The Fall And Rise Of Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid

Good to see that this year, the New Zealand film societies are celebrating what would have been Sam Peckinpah’s 100th birthday with what they are calling “Peckinpah’s West” – a tribute consisting of screenings of The Wild Bunch and Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. That’s where the good part begins and ends. Screening something with the title “Peckinpah’s West” but without including Ride The High Country (the director’s breakthrough film and the swan song of Randolph Scott) seems like a missed opportunity.

Taxpayers' Union: Poor Data Privacy A Problem Throughout The Public Sector

"The public service has an appallingly lax attitude towards data privacy,” said Sam Warren, a spokesman for the New Zealand Taxpayers’ Union. “It’s not at all dissimilar to the issues we found with Inland Revenue last year, when they were caught giving sensitive taxpayer information to overseas tech firms like Facebook.”

Biosecurity New Zealand: Biosecurity NZ Investigating And Boosting Trapping After New Auckland Fruit Fly Find

“This is the same species of fruit fly that we responded to in Papatoetoe recently, but it is too early to say whether the two finds are linked. Our lab will do further DNA analysis of the fly in the coming days," says Biosecurity New Zealand Commissioner North Mike Inglis.

NZ Labour Party: Two Labour Members’ Bills Drawn From Ballot

Bills by Labour MPs to remove rules around sale of alcohol on public holidays, and for Crown entities to adopt Māori names have been drawn from the Members’ Bill Ballot.

Green Party: Right To Repair Bill Passes Significant Step

“This is a significant step towards building a circular economy that empowers our people and protects our planet,” says Green Party co-leader Marama Davidson.

Te Pati Maori: No ‘Māori Privilege’ In Education

“While the recent $100 million allocated to repair Wellington Girls’ College is a necessary and welcomed investment, it highlights the ongoing disparity in funding for Māori education,” said Te Pāti Māori spokesperson for rangatahi, Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke.
