I have a great deal of respect for that woman. Get well soon.

It doesn't sound as though recovery is on the table, all her whanau are with her apparently. I hope she was still well enough to have witnessed that haka in parliament.
Oddly, I found the news over the way; which seems to have become ever more racist. Glad I gave it up - or it gave me up & after that second ban I decided that enough was enough...

Are you referring to that ghastly issues forum? I'd forgotten all about it and just had a quick look. Eeek... I feel tainted. it's even worse than I remember.
Good on you for being banned.

Still going? Good heavens. I hope you used the hand sanitiser...

I still sometimes post music over there, but hadn't been in for a while.
It does seem to have got worse; there were still somer good posters when i left but didn't check if they're still around or not. At one point admin created a special area not visible to others, which was specifically for leftish posters to post without hassles. Long gone of course.

Yes, she did do some good with her life, which can't be said about many politicians.
