Investors from Australia, Canada and the UK that meet certain criteria will be exempted from some new US restrictions on foreign investment - but New Zealand didn't make the cut. 

The three countries have been added to an 'excepted states' list and may face different compliance requirements to revised US investment regulations released this week.

If any nation or organisation places people in harm’s way as part of their role, then there is an obligation to provide the best protection possible – relevant and appropriate to the task and risk. Striking the balance between force protection and becoming disconnected from the public, however, requires great wisdom and acceptance of risk.

Those that know me, know I am not a big fan of Jacinda Ardern... however she is allowed a holiday, even if it is in Aussie it can be where ever she wants to visit. The problem with Scott Morrison is that he tried to hide that he went on holiday when there was a state emergency... New Zealand is not under any state emergency at present... so she is spending money and promoting tourism in Queensland... isn't that what you want...

If Scott Morrison went around hugging everyone like Jacinda Ardern, the Feminists would be up in arms, he would probably now be fighting a MeTo claim ... foot-in-mouth

The new climate change curriculum for schools has been described as "state-organised bullying of kids" by MP David Seymour, who says it will "take us backwards as a society". 

Seymour, leader of the ACT Party, said he's concerned the curriculum doesn't allow for students to debate the science, telling Magic Talk he fears it's designed to suppress opposing views.
