🤣🤣🤣 This will go over their heads lol

It takes a second for a lie to spread but an hour to explain the truth. #bhn #nzpol

Forgot to promo Friday's show :P If you like reports and reading you'll love the second hour of the show hahahaha

1min43: "The problem has become, that even stating the truth about this administration ends up sounding biased because it's really hard to find something that isn't negative or anti-democratic about what they're doing" How i feel every Friday on #BHN hahah.... #nzpol

Yasssssss!!!!! #democracy #budget2025 #bhn #nzpol

Video by Dr Cassandra Mudgway @legallyfeminist.bsky.social on current debates around misogyny in the context of drastic changes to pay equity legislation. V. useful frame of ref. in study of commentary targeting journalist Andrea Vance, & also MP Willis. 1k+ views on Instagram. Worth posting here.

Confirmed. TPU are in. Yet to hear if NZCTU and Craig are in... #nzpol

The government has called Labour “callous, cruel and cowardly.” Personally, I think cancelling pay equity claims for 180,000 women without notice and under urgency is callous, cruel and cowardly.

Holy shit. I knew this man was an arse but fuck me... A better adjective for him: abhorrent. This shit might as well have come straight out of the mouth of Andrew Tate or Elon Musk.

Luxon reckons Brooke van Velden has made some "pretty sensible" changes by stripping hundreds of thousands of women of the right to pay equity. Over 65,000 New Zealanders disagree with him—add your voice by signing the petition today: www.together.org.nz/fbt_for_pay_...

@clrenney.bsky.social Locked out from this year's Budget lock up, despite #bhn going through the correct channels for him to report for us. Interesting developments tonight which I will put in the replies once pat has clipped it. Seriously bad look for govt if they don't let him in now... #nzpol

Exactly #nzpol

Goodness gracious Andrea Vance #nzpol

Great read!! (Don't love the slightly misogynist title but I'm going to blame The Post's editors not the author.)

#nzpol Good size in Rolly! And gridlock coming into town. Go #christchurch #rolleston #payequity #bhn

Glad someone turned this into something.

I'm thinking tonight's #bhn i want to talk about the election win for Labor in Aussie and what nz's Labour could learn from it. I've watched a bunch of videos over the last week that have all echoed a similar message and I'd like to break it down with yall. #nzpol

Couldn't make it this mroning but on my way to rolly as we speak!

Just saw that Nicola Grigg is going to be in central Christchurch tomorrow morning (specifically for a gender pay gap talk). www.eventbrite.co.nz/e/economic-e... @workersfirstunion.bsky.social @nzctu.bsky.social #nzpol

Oof. Can't wait for those kids to vote.

#weddingdressmaking hand sewing time listening to Dr K. Healthy Gamer.

Imma be real. Shits getting dystopian in Aotearoa and it's becoming increasingly clear that we have to act now not later. #nzpol

This line of thinking stops actual change, Did you know Labour used to be a minor party at 6% Would you in 1916 be like "You shouldn't vote for United Labour Party, you should vote for the lesser evil, the Liberal party, theres no point in voting Labour with only 6% they can't better things" #nzpol

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Omg thats insane!!!

Labour women in our full on fight against National’s ghastly pay equity legislation which will cut women’s pay. Kia kaha, wāhine ma!

Together we must be united as a country make the necessary sacrifices during these hard times so we can help pay for these landlord tax cuts! 🫡✊ yeehawtheboys.substack.com/p/actively-e...

Holy shit this speaks volumes and to the integrity of both these women. Nicola: snarky, petty, any opportunity to blame opposition, just reeks from her speech. Erica: sincere, Names, but does not shame, Julie Ann Genter for her great work. One of these women is not like the other...

Skype pulled most incomprehensible bag fumble of all time. A 15 year head start. Total ubiquity. Added to the Oxford English Dictionary by 2014. Only to fall nuts-first into irrelevance at the exact moment when all other communication was made illegal. Truly, the Pete Best of videoconferencing. RIP.
