I'm so sad about the sanctions given to the Te Pati Māori MPs. If you want to talk about conduct unbecoming an MP, Winston's comments about moko should have been far more offensive than the haka. I think the best way to protest is a donation to @tepaatimaori.bsky.social #nzpol

A timely reminder for Australian voters, too, from this New Zealander writing about the NZ negative experience of privatisation of publically-owned assets. #auspol #nzpol #qldpol

"The Reserve Bank of New Zealand is continuing to delay releasing information related to Adrian Orr’s sudden resignation as governor three months ago." "The restructuring has seen former assistant governors Kate Kolich, Greg Smith, Simone Robbers and Sarah Owen leave." A Coalition Doge? #nzpol

If you can't perform a haka in a public space and yes the parliament chamber is owned by the people then we should remove the haka from sports events that are watched by the attended Coalition idiots. #nzpol

It’s worse than this. The RW harbour & protect sexually deviant individuals as part of the good old boys club rule. It is a sick & twisted attitude to life & one that reeks of private school boy privilege. This has got to change! #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

I am also Tangata Tiriti, and I support @tepaatimaori.bsky.social in the face of the shameful actions of our racist coalition government. I see your strength and your mana, and I know there are many more like me. Arohanui. Kia kaha, and #toitutetiriti #nzpol 🫶

I wanted a minority Labor Govt that had to listen to the Greens and the Teal independents. The Albanese Labor Govt's ongoing inaction on the #GazaGenocide, its approval for Woodside's #NorthWestShelf project, and continued support for #AUKUS are just 3 reasons. 😔 #auspol

The foolish rationale for spending $368B on #AUKUS subs is to support the US in war with China over Taiwan. The US says this could happen in 2027. We won’t get US subs until at least 2032; if ever. AUKUS is strategic folly at every level. But don’t expect anyone to admit that. #auspol

One of the very noticeable things about #AUKUS is the ease with which top politicians in all three countries gloss over practical realities. This ease flows from the fact that none of them will be around when the fantasy ship hits the rocks. #auspol

Australia's #AUKUS nuclear sub build is critically dependent on the UK's sub industrial base which needs massive new investment. Can we rely on Whitehall politicians prioritising this program when they can't say how much they'll commit? #folly #auspol

MSM is waking up to Defence procurement incompetence but Govt is still asleep. We need radical Defence reform. And former Defence Dept leaders should not review Defence. Dennis Richardson’s (unfinished) review of #AUKUS was a sham before it started. We need a clean sweep. #auspol

Would U.S beef have a much higher risk of toxins in the cattle due to toxicity source regulations being cut by the Trump/GOP admin, depending on the area they come from ? Such as high risk fertilisers in cattle food and #pfas in their water ? #auspol www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Are we clear now a private businessman shouldn’t be in a position to control the space program—that this richest man in the world fueled by drugs, ego & hate shouldn’t be partnering with a malignant sociopath in the WH immunized by the SCOTUS & bent on pocketing billions & flouting the Constitution?
