Reminder: Daylight saving ends on Sunday

New Zealand Daylight Saving will end next Sunday, 5 April 2015, when 3.00am becomes 2.00am.

People may find it convenient to put their clocks back by one hour before going to bed on Saturday 4 April.

As well as changing clocks, the end of daylight saving is an opportune time for people to check their household emergency plans and survival items and home smoke alarms.

The daylight saving period runs from the last Sunday in September to the first Sunday in April. This year daylight saving will recommence on 27 September.

Full background on daylight saving in New Zealand can be found on the Department of Internal Affairs website.

Eugene Doyle: BBC Goes Full Goebbels In Support Of Israeli Soccer Hooligans

The BBC has proven itself to be an outrageously false & misleading outlet, peddling anti-Muslim, anti-Palestinian propaganda dressed up as concern over anti-semitism. It has desecrated the memory of real victims – and most importantly it has shredded its credibility as a gold standard of reporting. Goebbels would be impressed.

Binoy Kampmark: They Were There First - Election Denialism, The Democratic Way

Instead of vanishing as aberrant over the Biden years, Trumpism has come home to roost in winning, not only the Electoral College but the majority vote by convincing margins.
