David your full of it mate. The problem is Labour were too stupid to implement them, and now we have messed up ACC system with MASSIVE debt.Cancel the world cup? LOL what a joke! While your going on about spending money on the world cup, your forgetting that it will bring in huge dollars from tourists comming here to see the games and this country. I prefer Key over that fraudster Helen, hands down!
"The demonstrators are fighting back against proposed ACC changes that will mean sexual abuse victims will have to be declared mentally ill to receive ACC counselling." Yet the media does not report the full facts. That in 2001 Labour passed into law that to get funding for counselling a mental injury had to of happened. The media has not metioned that since then you have had to of been declared to have a mental injury to get funding for counselling from ACC for rape. That this change will mean that a medical practitioner will now decide that someone should get the funding and not a paper pusher. Come on tv3, how about reporting the full story and with facts instead of the hash job your political reporter typically does.
Rugby is boring. The talent is not there. Gone overseas like most professional sports people. Black sticks will be next. The Maori are not represented in the All Blacks. Bring back Maori in the All blacks. Victims of rape should be part of Sips/Family courts and be funded and managed. No one suitable and again no funding.
