Zionists rail against Palestine teen being visible in our community, solidarity gathering follows, Zionist supporter attacks and stomps two Palestine allies. Shameful stuff.

"Evidence is overwhelming that incomes are inadequate for many people, both those receiving a benefit and those in low-paid work. Current levels of support fail to cover even basic costs for many people" - Whakamana Tāngata, the 2019 report of the Welfare Expert Advisory Group Just saying.

I grew up in a house where there wasn’t always “lunch” food and I went “home for lunch” so no one would know we didn’t have muesli bars or little bags of chips or fruit or sometimes not bread for marmite sandwiches. I don’t imagine the shame of that has changed in the last 40 years.

Richard Prebble was never going to be a good fit for the Waitangi Tribunal and kudos to him for recognising his limitations as a Tribunal member. He made a relatively quick decision to resign and I hope one or two others will now follow his example. www.nzherald.co.nz/business/why...

Bloody hell. A bloke who literally couldn’t keep his shirt on in meeting and made physical contact with staff and now an accountant that was censured by the Institute of Chartered Accountants. Did Levy just look for the shonkiest guys in town who would just do his bidding. #nzpol

And so it begins. A crucial change is occurring, & democracy as we've known it must evolve. Capitalist greed will be exposed as international tariffs roll out. Expect losses. Collective multipolarity using our own currency to trade is the future. Sanctions must die. www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/3...

Listening to yesterday’s Mediawatch, specifically the clip of Seymour saying China had awakened the ire of the NZ public I almost laughed out loud. Just casually on my commute home through a city that has over triple the population of our entire country

The saddest thing about the 300m ferry loss is how many schools could have built proper kitchens, created cooking classes, built small gardens and learnt how to look after their own students lunches. Seymour fired Willis fired Luxon, ship him back to the RW MAGA head office in the US. #nzpol

There's an ongoing pattern of Luxon getting pissed at being continually challenged by media about something and snapping back a response in anger, today we got; "make a Marmite sandwich and put an apple in a bag." which shows his distain for kids, parents, the poor and the media all in one #NZPol

Just a reminder that David Cumin, a director of the Israel Institute of NZ, was the other guy in the legal case against Auckland Council for deciding not to host two white supremacist speakers. Founding Free Speech Union member too. Interesting who gets free speech and who doesn't, isn't it?

Heartbreaking that children in Aotearoa are treated as collateral damage to decisions made by ill-informed politicians and their agencies. I'm fukn sick of it. They're today's taonga and tomorrow's assets. Investment in our collective futures is through the children. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Z29B...
