New. F1. Canada 2025 review @sportsfreak.bsky.social @heyxie.bsky.social www.sportsfreak.co.nz/f1-canada-20...

But ACT want to lock up all the POC for a little weed. The fucking balls of these cunts. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/court-hea...

Inland Revenue finds $45 million of undeclared tax in horticulture industry from last 10 months

This is the same party that is pushing on universities compulsory ‘free speech policies’ which they claim are necessary to protect academic freedom. It’s about controlling certain types of speech and speakers.

And there it is, quietly and executed through a Letter of Expectations - the privatisation of our health system. Not voted on. No consultation - just admin. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Auckland could import its entire food supply from overseas and it would still be cheaper at the supermarkets than NZ produced food Never mind the Trade and Current Accounts although those are very easily fixed without our farmers

The man who wanted tougher penalties for NZers wants no penalties for himself. ACT in a nutshell.

Wow, so surprising

If enshittification was a person it would be David Seymour.. #nzpol

The fact that Head and Shoulders has not made a bodywash called Knees and Toes, really bothers me.

Back on track

#nzpol Minimum Wage increased 1.5% this year. Data just released by Stats NZ shows: - Food Prices up 4.4.% - Beef up 16.2%. Lamb up 20.3% - Cheese up 17.3%. Milk up 13.7% - Electricity up 8.7%. Gas up 15.4% - Rent up 2.8% Laser focussed on the cost of living www.stats.govt.nz/information-...

The man who wanted it locked down faster and harder says what...?

Good Herald editorial today #NZpol

So it begins. 10-year outsourcing contracts for private hospitals? It’s a sell-off. You don’t lock in health equity with private contracts to those who profit from illness. You lock out the public. The corporate takeover of our health system is now official policy. #PublicHealthCrisis #NZPol

When did we give these cunts a manifesto to privatize health? I don't remember that at all.. #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

More young people in sport means more promising young sportsmen means more discharges without conviction means lower conviction rates.

I’m just surprised the landlords haven’t saved the economy

Some smart cookie just texted Checkpoint that they could sell to us sans the transportation cost!

The current govt is the most anti-family and anti-work govt that we have had. They wanna fire everyone and make the economy so bad that no one is hiring. They don’t want to feed the kids, set us up for retirement, or give us time to look after our kids. Just horrifically evil.

Back on track

What happened in 2020, asking for a friend.

If taxing wealth reduced resources and capitals to invest and build NZ, why is NZ not a haven of great companies and massive infrastructure and full of rich people?

It's not really true. Capital, like energy, doesn't disappear it just moves around. (And generally serves more purpose when it's moving.) You can have 1 billionaire or you can have 500 millionaires & 100,000 people who can live. Now, how you tax it matters and I have a lot of thoughts about that.

Ruth on Q&A ffs. Begging all journos to understand how successive NZ Govts used the expansion of private debt from the 1980s to 2020 to enrich the wealthy *and* reduce the debt side of the Govt balance sheet. Compare to the mid 20th C when Govt reduced debt as % of gdp *while investing in infra*.

"What we want is less people working, and more people working while sick"

I think the Proteas will get a bigger parade for winning the WTC than Trump got for his birthday.

I'm sorry but the largest protest of my lifetime is not the 7th or 8th biggest news story in the country behind "what does Gen Z want from Instagram?" This shit is humiliating. Rearrange your layout to meet this moment. Omitting the thing happening in every American city is malpractice.

"To celebrate my birthday, I had an 80-year-old veteran and sixty other veterans arrested for opposing my military parade."

More law abiding firearm owners.

JUST IN: Judge Charles Breyer finds that President Trump exceeded the scope of his authority and violated the 10th Amendment by federalizing the California National Guard and orders him to return control to Governor Newsom. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

As the govt insists on taking the credit for reducing interest rates, this is on them too.

You know, I think I am about ready to chip in for that wall around America

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.

📢 Tim McKinnel is investigating ex-cop Jamie Foster's conviction.

Anyone in NZ shocked that an US senator gets detained should not forget that ACT MP Parmjeet Parmar asked for imprisonment of @tepaatimaori.bsky.social MPs too: www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic... Democracy is vulnerable and must be protected! #nzpol

This govts default position is abuse and exploitation must continue until morale improves. Absolutely sickening.

It is with a heavy heart that we regret to inform that Douglas McCarthy passed away this morning of June 11th, 2025. We ask everyone to please be respectful of Douglas, his wife, and family in this difficult time. We appreciate your understanding and will share more information soon.

RIP Douglas McCarthy, the voice of Nitzer Ebb
