  • On relieving cost of living pressures, National’s commanding 23-point lead before the election has swung to a 16-point deficit. Just 31% of voters now trust National most on this issue, down from 48% in August 2023, while Labour has surged from 25% to 47%.

    Hardly surprising. Cost of living isn’t something a politician can hide: it hits people’s wallets directly.

    Also, of the large volume of news covering what the government is doing, it’s mostly been bullshit that doesn’t affect most people as directly or as obviously: treaty principles (thats just the Murrays), speed limits (on other peoples’ roads), NCEA renaming, etc.

    The book is the captain’s retelling of the ravings of the doctor as he lies dying on the ship. Followed by his retelling of the monster’s story.

    I don’t recall the doctor’s name ever being mentioned.
