Covid placed enormous pressure on almost all businesses, especially SMEs so in a way, one could understand why Tana & her husband did what they have been accused of doing. Not an excuse but a reason.

But Tana staying on as a MP after the report is reprehensible and shows what sort of person she is - and of course, the liars, thieves, hypocrites and scums reside within the Green Party.

What the hell is this??? Excuse/reason interchangeable meaning in this case. You might as well tell me they had mental health issues, not an excuse but a reason.

Chill!

Is there a difference between excuse and reason?

The answer is surprisingly straightforward and simply is:

An excuse is offered by someone trying to be excused from a bad thing.

A reason is offered by someone trying to help others understand why a bad thing happened but will ultimately let themselves be held accountable for the bad thing.

Everyone makes mistakes & bad decisions in their lives and I am indeed no different. Difference is that we front up to our mistakes while Tana refuses to and is trying to milk NZers for all she can get - after being caught!

Cops called to angry clash between migrant worker and former Green MP, report reveals


Police were called after an angry confrontation between embattled former Green MP Darleen Tana and a migrant worker.

The worker claimed Tana approached him at work in March 2023 threatening defamation action against him if he persisted in an employment complaint against her husband’s bike business.

A report into Tana’s conduct repeatedly criticises her changing version of events and ultimately says those “inconsistent accounts … damaged her overall credibility”.



Police were called after an angry confrontation between embattled former Green MP Darleen Tana and a migrant worker, in which Tana later admitted her “mama-bear instincts got the better of her”.

The worker claimed Tana approached him at his new employer's premises in March 2023 threatening defamation action against him if he persisted in an employment complaint against her husband’s bike business.

The worker has confirmed the incident to Stuff, and it is described in detail in lawyer Rachel Burt’s devastating report into what Tana knew - and when - about alleged migrant exploitation at E-Cycles NZ, a chain of e-bike shops trading as Bikes and Beyond.

Darleen Tana’s husband Christian Hoff-Nielsen’s bike business is in liquidation amid worker exploitation claims.

People inside the premises told the Herald Tana’s husband, business owner Christian Hoff-Nielsen, has left the country and is in Europe.


About 4.30pm, the Companies Office updated its website to say E Cycles NZ Limited has had liquidators, receivers or voluntary administrators appointed.

You increase interest rates slow down the economy and this is what you get. Surprised the greens come up with crazy stuff like electric cars, stopping oil and gas exploration and fart taxes.

https://www.interest.co.nz/economy/128852/statistics-nz-says-greenhouse-gas-emissions-fell-27-march-quarter-largest-quarterly

Less goods being consumed means less emissions. Less trucks on the road carrying the goods. Restaurants have a lot of waste so a few less of them might not be the disaster currently being painted in the paper.

Maybe if we closed the door to immigrants we could get off the busy cycle of more people, more buildings, more infrastructure more consumption. To what end are successive govts creating overcrowded busyness? A better way of life for everyone?

Until the greens come up with an alternative to our current economic model of more people consuming more stuff they should just shut the *uck up about climate change.

Maybe I am not aspirational enough.

Christian Hoff-Nielsen ordered to do community service, says he has split with former Green MP Darleen Tana, thanks friends for support



Christian Hoff-Nielsen says he is approaching bankruptcy, is no longer in a romantic relationship with wife Darleen Tana and has slammed the Green Party investigation into what Tana knew about the e-bike business at the centre of political scandal.

Hoff-Nielsen was said to have been in Europe, according to some recent reports, but appeared in the Auckland District Court this afternoon.

He was told to do 80 hours of community service for parking fines.

A magistrate said the fines amounted to $4385 but Hoff-Nielsen queried why he was being held liable for all that when employees were sometimes using the vehicles in question.

Little Darling must of kicked the prospective Bankrupt to the kerb ;)

Meanwhile someone must still be free parking @ the Beehive while this is going on ..

Still on the full Taxpayer provided package - all the bells, whistles & cream buns - must be pretty grim if she just walks away, leaving him to go down the toilet destitute, presumably over the eBike Adventure she allegedly also had hand in, going splat ;)

Who paid for the trip to Europe ? Was the plastic borrowed for the fare or a farewell gift ? ;)

Labour and the Greens cautious as Government embraces genetic engineering


Perhaps some extensive GE among Greens & Labour's ranks might improve things & their outlook ? ;)

You make it seem like being cautious is a bad thing.
We should all be cautious (not negative) as it is hard to put the genie back into the bottle.

As they should be.
What concerns me is this govt will prioritise money over people and the environment.

Monsato have effectively created weeds that are resistant to glyphosate weedkillers due to gene pollution.
