The subject of Covid and the anti-vaxxers has brought something out of the woodwork, although I am none too sure what it is that came out. Electronic Version I haven’t had so much fun since someone left a turd in my letter box when I was living in Woodbank Road and Each week we will send you a constantly carping about the dirt the developers were reminder to click on raising at the expense of the street’s clean washing. Someone has taken it upon themself to keep me informed h\p://thepinkie.co.nz/ of anti-vax disinformation and has been doing a regular drop in my letterbox of a pamphlet produced by an organisation calling themselves Voices for Freedom. Cover: Frosty Morning Window The leaflets are probably preferable to a turd but only marginally, they also qualify as crap. Photos this issue Richard Tapper, The leaflet is the same one that was canned by the historical archives, Advertising Standards Authority this week. The ASA is also now investigating two other leaflets circulated by the same group, including one which questions the efficacy of masks. Voices for Freedom co-founder Claire Deeks said she strongly disagreed with the ASA decision and the group If You Want to Have would “proceed undeterred with its plans” for future leaflet campaigns. The group estimated over 1.7 million of Something included in the leaflets had been printed and distributed throughout the country. The Pinkie This leaflet says vaccine companies are exempt from liability — Misleading and in breach of the advertising Please email it to code.The leaflet claims the vaccine doesn’t stop you getting Covid — Misleading, there is a mountain of data [email protected] showing very clearly the vaccine prevent ‘almost all’ infection. The leaflet states, and I have also been told that 0274 337 420 animals in corona virus vaccine trials became very sick when exposed to the virus.— Misleading, the trials they refer to were not relevant because they were given a Contact Details different kind of vaccine. They also claim the vaccine will [email protected] cause cancer, sterility or mutate cells. — Misleading and Richard Tapper completely unsubstantiated. They also claim that Medsafe had concerns about damage to DNA and auto immunity. — This was a twisting of words from a report and what 0274 337420 they claim is unsubstantiated. Their claim that deaths and Deadline for material including advertising is 5 serious injury had resulted from the vaccine “at an pm Sunday alarming rate” is completely unsubstantiated. What Voices Opinions expressed herein are not necessarily for Freedom has done is take all medical events that have those of the editor or publisher occurred globally since vaccination began and blamed them on the vaccines. I am wondering why my phantom mailbox stuffer has taken to providing me with over a dozen examples of this The Pinkie is published by same leaflet. Perhaps it is on the Trumpian principle that if Hanmer Springs Village News Ltd you tell someone the same lie enough times they will end Richard Tapper up believing it against their own better judgement.

  • 10 Day Top of the South
    10 Day Top of the South The Journey While not the only regions bathed in sunshine and wrapped in beautiful coastlines, Nelson and Marlborough join forces to deliver one of New Zealand’s most diverse and satisfying holiday destinations. Three national parks, beaches and bays, world-famous wineries, delectable produce, art, culture, adrenaline activities and family fun – all this and more can be found on this scenic loop from Britz’s Christchurch depot. Highlights of the trip Christchurch Kaikoura Marlborough Sounds Nelson Lakes National Park Day 1 Christchurch Christchurch is a welcoming city and a convenient departure point for the road trips that lead in almost every direction. Immerse yourself in its dynamic vibe by visiting the arty centre and Re:Start precinct, its parks, gardens and beaches, and suburban hotspots such as Addington and Woolston Tannery. There are several leafy holiday parks out east, including North South, handy to the Britz depot. Day 2 Christchurch to Kairkoura Head up SH1, and in less than 30 minutes you’ll reach Waipara, a burgeoning wine region where Pegasus Bay and Black Estate offer tastings and winery lunches; the Waipara Valley Wine Growers lists other cellar doors. SH1 then leaves the Canterbury Plains and winds over the Hundalee Hills before kissing the coast. Kaikoura lies at the southern boundary of Marlborough, straddling a peninsula guarded by the Seaward Kaikoura Range. It’s world- renown for Whale Watch tours, but there is plenty of other wildlife to see including dolphins, seals and seabirds. Other ways to encounter wildlife are Seal Swiming and Kayak Tours, and the walk along the view-filled Kaikoura Peninsula that passes the Point Kean Seal Colony.
