It's quite amusing how people listen to Maurice's rants and believe they know how life is in NZ. Such faith! You should stop to question why he still lives here, and why hordes of people from Hong Kong and China have moved here. Of course, the arrival of all these Chinese people makes Maurice unhappy, but still not unhappy enough to leave.

He is right about the nervous Nellies being currently in charge, but wrong to to think that this is a uniquely NZ phenomenon, and wrong to give the impression that this is the whole story. For all its rules, NZ is still overall one of the better places to live. As far as I'm concerned the main drawbacks are cultural - the way I look at it, the people and their culture create the government, not the other way around.
