It seems we go from sleepy hobbits to warrior submitters when we realise things we care about are under threat.

What a deal oil & gas are offering here. We pay the cost of catastrophic climate change if they find oil. We pay their exploration costs if they don't. It's a lose - lose. This is as demented as it gets. tiny.cc/4agyzz

TJ Perenara leading Ka Mate for the All Blacks vs Italy, starts with "Toitū te mana motuhake! Toitū te Tiriti o Waitangi!" That's gonna piss off the racist "keep politics out of sport" dickheads wonderfully

Just after midnight police pulled over and arrested a gang member who wasn’t wearing a patch but was displaying gang insignia on the dashboard of his car. Two days after the Toitū Te Tiriti hikoi and a week after the Abuse in State Care apology. An old #cartoon

What I'd just say to you is, our donors couldn't be happier & bottomfeeders didn't vote for us anyway. #LyinLuxon #CoalitionOfCorruption #Idontcare

Just a heads up that this $10 billion + difference is the cost of the Cook Strait ferries, Picton and Wellington upgrades, Dunedin Hospital at gold standard, reversing mental health service cuts, and doing the Transport Choices programme.

This excellent piece sums up a great deal of what bugs me about the framing of "impartiality" in news media. Nevak Rogers takes leave to march with her whanau and it's news, but Soper and HDPA *use their actual media platform* to scorn the hikoi and that's different? thespinoff.co.nz/politics/19-...

No, Prime Minister, people aren't just protesting the week-old Government. They're pretty hacked off with the racist crap its constituents parties were spouting over the nine months following Jacinda Ardern announcing the election date in mid-January. You'd know that if you were listening. #Nzpol

I think I'm so worried about this government because I was hoping against hope that the Nats would be some sort of moderating influence on Act's hardcore libertarian shit and some sort of moderating influence on NZF's hardcore cooker shit and instead they all egged each other on to be WORSE
