So Hamish Campbell is some kind of Two By Twos elder and lied about it. PM unaware yet again. Claiming to be ‘socially liberal’ whilst being in the Nat party is an oxymoron. Why is National full of super patriarchal christians? #nzpol

I wrote about China's climate policy. Did you know that China has enacted the most comprehensive climate policy in the world? Well, it has — because it's positioning itself as global hegemon for the climate-changed future. Trump's climate denial is only a stupid, tragic assist to that end. 🧵

With some additions: Police don't prevent crime. They respond to it. Living Wages, guaranteed free health care, food security, equity, affordable high quality child care, affordable secure housing, good schools, social programmes, disability support, addiction & MH treatment prevent crime. #nzpol

David Seymour spending $10m on 215 students for charter schools is classic ACT. Inefficient taxpayer money spend w/bad results. Interestingly, the documents note charter schools are free to operate as for profit. This ruse is just privatisating our education sector by stealth, funded by us #nzpol

Simeon gaslights NZ doctors, blaming them for the strike and telling doctors they didn't need to do this. Meanwhile National & ACT seek to silence doctors at the same time; offering a paycut while giving themselves 11% pay bumps for ruining the country and our public healthcare system #kiwi #nzpol

Heartless stuff of nightmares, brought to you by rich libertarian and right wing interests - Donald J Trump. But then again, he's just a figure head for the agenda.

Less driving tests and less eyesight tests because NZ drivers are so good and our track record is so strong. "Chris Bishop said the process for getting a driver licence was "time consuming and inefficient" i.e. More cost cutting that risks lives #nzpol #newzealand

While the Trump Clown Show rolls on with spectacular, spell binding effects, what's it hiding, and why are the new right wing so 'dumb'? Here's a hint - someone is winning. #nzpol #trump #newzealand
