Meeting Paris climate obligations through actual cuts will be ‘costly and disruptive’ so will not happen, ensuring that it will be even more costly and disruptive to meet our obligations next year. Decarbonisation thus becomes more ‘unpalatable’ the more urgent it becomes. Got it

I get gloomy about 1-in-4 young people being unemployed, NZ not being able to 'afford' to fix decaying infrastructure, 400,000 kiwis wanting work or more work... But, look on the bright side, the banks have notched up record profits again. A cool $10.4 billion for the year ending March 2025 [🧵 1/n]

Who even LIKES this guy?

"your crackpot documentary, I've seen your questions & um I think you're a joke". This is the supposed 'intellectual giant' of the right, his fucking opening gambit is ad hominem. What a slimy little cunt. Go Mihi

ACT MP Parmjeet Parmar sought imprisonment advice for Te Pāti Māori haka www.thepost.co.nz/politics/360...

Oh fuck, we're really speed-running this race to the bottom

Honestly can’t decide whether nothing it just £5 is the funnier outcome. I’m going with £5.

92% of people who pay tax in this country would get a tax cut under the Greens' budget. So what angle does NZ Herald's Thomas Coughlan take? He says some nurses could pay an extra $3 more a week because of recent pay equity gains. Pathetic.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."

Here we are putting tariffs on ourselves.

Fuck this little shit.

Get mad.

This is INFURIATING.

When we get rid of this shower, our next government had better commit to a) undoing this shit and b) making it MUCH harder to bypass procedure and due diligence ever again.

Nawooska ma do grangshi du badoo my daughter's wedding? Hoo hoo hoo.

America. You could have had an administration that adores Good Bois, instead of shooting them.

Fuck the Post. Why were attacks on Tory so easily spread? It was YOU.

Anyone looking at public spending cuts should have this death tally on their Wiki page. Nicola, I'm looking at YOU.

Yes and oui!

Everyone’s gonna be wide awake at his funeral. If only because they’ll play Kool & The Gang’s “Celebration” at full volume.

You might have seen the graph on anti trans articles recently. This post goes through how bad the UK media were three years ago. They've only become worse since then.

Fuck this fossil. I'm only sorry he'll miss what history books record about him because it won't be flattering.

unfollowing everyone on linkedin except this guy

Just the usual "If this debacle happened in a normal developed country it would probably be sufficient to bring down the government on its own."

ARE WE PAYING ATTENTION YET

half-remembering that thing about how most Roman citizens experienced the fall of Rome as simply one day their local bridge went out and nobody came around to repair it

😆

Crossed fingers...

PREACH.

Have a sook, cunt.

What the actual fuck?

I'm right in understanding that this means they'll be part of the archive, but won't be considered in their report, right? Their report that they're delivering a month ahead of schedule? Why are they rushing a report when there are thousands more submissions to read?

A very good report from David Fisher, not only explaining what the Benjamin Doyle story has been about, but seeking context – and identifying, to the extent possible given that there's an anonymous Twitter account at the centre of this, who has been pushing it. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

I will pay good money for that gormless twat to squirm over a response.

AOC: If you are an LGBTQ kid or family, we cannot throw you under the bus in order to win an election. In this house, we stand together

Still awaiting for Americans to figure out they're at the start of a fucking dictatorship.
