Nationalisation of Tar
April 13, 2022
By NZB3
Government has decided to take over the bitumen import business in New Zealand because it doesn’t trust private enterprise. Z Energy is backing off and wishing them luck.
Because New Zealand can’t make its own oil-infested rocks now we must ship in the expensive and heavy stuff. Because Labour 6.0 had Marsden Point oil refinery closed down and concrete poured into the workings. Because tar/bitumen is a strategic national commodity the Government needs to be in control of its import. Because tar/bitumen is a strategic national commodity the Government shut down our own domestic suppler of it. Go figure that out would you?
Because Labour 6.0 are so good at purchasing commodities on the international market. Better than the companies who have been doing it for years. Better at buying drugs even than PHARMAC whose contacts and experience were ignored so Labour 6.0 could buy and control all the COVID jabs and tests using deficit financing.
So, from the makers of these past year’s pandemic comes a new and exciting sequel. Labour 6.0 is the new tar mafia. What could go wrong?
“The Transport Agency is taking over nearly all the country’s bitumen supply vital to road building because it believes it is being ripped off by suppliers…Z Energy has already begun telling customers it will stop importing bitumen from July 2023 because NZTA’s move will leave it no room to operate…It has been entirely imported since early last year, after Marsden Point oil refinery stopped making 100,000-120,000t a year…”
“Bitumen is considered a “strategic commodity” because NZTA and councils have no alternative for road building.”- Phil Pennington, RNZ; Newshub (12 April 2022)
Labour 6.0 Transport Minister Michael Wood (of “river of filth” fame) is evidently the architect of this new Government ploy. According to Phil Pennington’s article the Minister’s directions were oral only and not recorded on paper so there’s nothing for the public to know about what he’s been up to.
We really don’t know for sure what’s really going on here in proper detail and probably never will but an Anarchist can speculate. The Anarchist political school says New Zealand’s national politics is a Capture The Flag style game between Team Blue and Team Red. The idea is to gain and keep the power of the Executive Government. This is achieved by capturing all of New Zealand’s revenue-generating castles in every industry or else destroying them. Examples of castles are endless but include the tourist industry, the Americas Cup, the movie industry, the hospitality industry, and as we see here tar/bitumen.

Ref. Transition Between Feudal Lords
Ref. “Change That Sticks”
Blue Castles generate and pump revenue toward Team Blue (National) and its friends, Red Castles do the same for Team Red/Labour. The revenue gained by this Spoils System provides the campaign financing for re-election but is also the one reason why these political parties exist at all: Power over New Zealander’s economic interactions. The object of the game is to capture a castle and ensure it flies your team’s colour if you can. If you cannot: Destroy it. Look no further for the reason why perfectly productive and sound firms and industries that employ New Zealanders and were earning profits are inexplicably shut down. Capture or kill! This is the Anarchist explanation as to why Marsden Point wasn’t just deactivated but sabotaged with concrete: Team Red know that this particular energy castle could not be theirs and certainly not stay theirs but would fall back into the hands of Team Blue so it has been tactically destroyed.
“A politician will re-start a revenue stream (eg a mine) if it pays into his interests but above all he must kill the revenue sources of his rival party even if that means perfectly viable industries and firms must be destroyed. I’m sure it was a similar story with the Thames goldfields in 1914 when they suffered a similar collapse and flooding. William Massey’s Government owed no allegiance to an electorate and cash cow of the Liberal Party so that was the end of that too.” – 1951: Cave In at Waiuta, AHNZ
“From an Anarchist political point of view it’s obvious that Helen Clark’s Government, Labour 5.0, would not keep to someone else’s deal. The F-16 order was National 5.0’s scheme and political cynics (ie the rational) assume it was paying off or gathering favors to National friends and campaign contributors not Labour’s. By keeping the deal, Labour would only have been helping the old regime they had overthrown in that case while having no frills of their own attached to cash in on. Schemes and scams take talented Ministers years to cultivate. A Minister of Defense always puts what nourishes his Ministry before what nourishes New Zealand’s defense (Anarkiwi 101.)” – 1970: Skyhawk, AHNZ
“That’s how it appears to work to the public who excuse it. The public think the party must be incompetent or even evil. Their solution is to bring in anther party. Eventually, similar ‘evil’/’incompetent’ operations are performed by the new party whereupon the party-swapping procedure is repeated. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. But what is really going on is not evil or incompetent. This isn’t bad government at all but government doing what it’s supposed to do. It is fully functional but unseen.” – How The Political Party Works, NZB3
Labour 6.0 are doing their best to oversee a transition between feudal lords over the health system. Very soon we will go from District Health Boards to a centralised authority (castle) called Health New Zealand. Labour 6.0 came close to capturing the education castle but as NZB3 watched this scam fell though or was given up in favor of the COVID castle. The State Media Castle is very close to being captured as an amalgamation of the government’s Television New Zealand and Radio New Zealand is about to occur. This will come much to the upset of the old guard at those media outlets.
This upset in the media castle’s inmates is probably why Phil Pennington is going hard on this story about Michael Wood’s tar. I don’t have a history of trusting Pennington’s work especially after he helped destroy St James Presbyterian Church. But I trust his wrath! Ref. 1885: St James Mt Eden, Part II; Conjuring a Demolition, AHNZ
Pennington, I assume, has been bitten by Labour 6.0’s renovation for his beloved home castle, Radio New Zealand. Either he has nothing to lose so is going hard after the Government by committing acts of real journalism. Or, he is showing them what a dangerous man he can be so that they will bring him on board and ensure he keeps his job after Minister of Broadcasting Kris Faafoi reforms the State media and paints it all Blue Blue Blue.
That’s what I think is really going on around here but you’ve got to speculate and be and Anarchist and quite rationally cynical to believe any of this. Everyone else just drinks the Kool–Aid and assumed Government Blue or Government Red must be incompetent or evil and excuses them. Elect the other colour! Wrong. No. Not evil or incompetent: Functional. Governments are doing what they are supposed to do in playing Capture the Flag with every castle in the realm. If you don’t like that it’s Statism you have a problem with and the solution is Anarkiwi.
