Useless sack of shit for a Prime Minister take two Just sack Seymour

#NZpol Noted some chirpy coverage detailing growth of job ads on Seek last week, ofc it was *only at the tail end* of said article it was admitted this may be more due to 'back to work at the beginning of the year vibes' than any long term outlook so things were, well, still looking shit this year.

Oh FFS, does he have any idea of what these roles involves?

Christopher Luxon has set the bar for ministerial conduct so low Ministers have to sack themselves. Andrew Bayly should’ve been gone months ago. After finding out about the latest allegation on Wednesday, the PM waited days for him to resign when he should’ve been sacked asap.

Not all boomers are conservatives. Props to this kuia.

Would you buy a used Treaty Principles Bill from this man? www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3605...

What a shame. Teamsters deserve better than this.

Great to see @barbedmonds.bsky.social considering the #generatingscarcity recommendation of Govt using its majority gentailer shareholdings to require investment in new renewable capacity. Under-investment has been disastrous for our economy. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

"Trump (with his inability to nominate anyone competent) owns this. Elon (with his insistence on gutting the government of talent) owns this. And all of those spineless Republicans Senators (who greenlit Sean Duffy for fear of asserting their autonomy as a co-equal branch of government) own this."

Social/state housing makes up about 4% of all our houses. The OECD average is about 7%. Under Labour, we were catching up by building more new state houses than any govt since at least the 1970s. National has slashed the build programme. That means more homelessness.

At a time when Kiwis deserve a government focussed on creating jobs, increasing incomes, building homes and fixing healthcare they instead have to suffer a government that is at war with itself and a weak PM who won’t enforce basic standards of ministerial accountability. #nzpol

The National govt told the reserve bank to ignore keeping people in employment and slam on the brakes harder. they even changed the law to tell them to do that. Now even Mike Hosking can see the damage that’s done! www.newstalkzb.co.nz/on-air/mike-...

The new Health Minister refuses to express confidence in the Health Commissioner hand-picked by the Prime Minister. Just another day under the Coalition of Chaos… #nzpol

No he doesn’t have any

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon refuses to say that David Seymour’s antics driving up parliaments steps, anti-immigrant comments by Winston Peters & Todd McClay & threats by Shane Jones to cut funding for charities who criticize govt don’t meet his standards. Does he have any?

Real men don’t barricade women and children. Real men don’t threaten and intimidate. Real men don’t preach hate. Real men DO show respect, compassion & love. Real men are comfortable enough in who they are to celebrate the diversity of others. Brian Tamaki you are just a boy.

Wow!!!!

Back on track?

That’s a very big IF. He doesn’t have any

Christopher Luxon says we need to say “yes” more and “no” less, yet his government said NO to new interisland ferries, NO to new state houses, NO to Dunedin hospital, NO to affordable water reform, NO to school upgrades, and NO to higher wages.

Today’s unemployment numbers show once again how this government is making things worse not better. Getting Kiwis back into work, and making sure that hard work pays off with a decent pay packet, will be a top priority for our next Labour government.

So how many strikes is that for David Seymour?

If Christopher Luxon had any standards he would sack David Seymour immediately.

Here’s what Trump does: 1. Creates a crisis that hurts a lot of people 2. Frames the crisis as a good thing 3. The crisis gets really bad 4. Trump then reverses his bad decision and takes credit for ending the crisis he created 5. MAGA eats it up Every. Single. Time.

Holy shit this cartoon.

😂😂😂 what a meltdown

I wonder how much Trump will like the new cover of Time.

Powerful writing by Verity Johnson. A new narrative emerging; our Landlord PM does not lead - he actually runs away from crises... www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

The illegal Musk-Trump shutdown of USAID will cause human suffering and weaken our national security—which is exactly what China, Iran, and Russia want. I’m fighting tooth and nail to protect USAID workers who combat the spread of famine, disease, and global instability. apnews.com/article/trum...

BREAKING: We're suing President Trump over his attempt to shut down asylum. No president has the authority to override the protections Congress has granted to people seeking safety at the border.

America has deep problems, which is why we can’t give up. Protect the vulnerable, organize boycotts and keep fighting. My latest for The Guardian. ⬇️
