Wereldnuus

Hier volg my wereldnuus vir die dag:

Klipgooi-insident op pad in Christchurch (klink vreeslik bekend):
Two motorists are lucky to have only scratches after a rock-throwing incident that has prompted a Christchurch police warning against the "silly" behaviour.
Michael Woodhouse, 29, of Christchurch, had splinters of glass on his face after rocks and clumps of metal hurled at his car on Sunday night struck the windscreen above his head, smashing it and sending glass flying.
Woodhouse and sister Antoinette Logan, 33, on holiday from England, were driving towards the Heathcote River bridge in Brougham Street, Opawa, about 9.45pm when two teenagers threw the objects at their car.
The pair stopped and found clumps of steel "about the size of your fist" on the road, Woodhouse said.
Last August, Chris Currie, 20, was killed instantly when a lump of concrete thrown from an overbridge on Auckland's Southern Motorway smashed through his windscreen.
Friends of the 14-year-old accused told a Manukau Youth Court depositions hearing that they had thought nothing of it because "everyone throws rocks off there".

En die beste quote van die week, rondom die hele spotprent-herrie. Let veral op die man se titel en dan wat hy se^. Klop dit?
National Party political correctness eradicator Wayne Mapp yesterday came out backing the Government and calling for sensitivity. (Die NS-regering het die koerante hier wat die spotprente gepubliseer het, daarvan beskuldig dat hulle die lewe van Nieu-Seelanders in gevaar gestel het en dit nie moes doen nie.)
