Te Atatū MP Phil Twyford has written to the charities regulator asking for Destiny Church to be struck off. "Destiny's actions were certainly oppressive, which meets the definition of wrongdoing in the law, and so they should lose their tax deductible status," he said. #destinychurch #kiwi

Great insights here from Prof Jane Kelsey and E-Tangata. The impacts of this bill would be severe for all Aotearoa NZ'ers. We only need to look at the newly elected US govt to see how this will play out. We need to educate our communities and keep calling out the real radicals.

A great speech and a direct, respectful challenge calling out the PM to show leadership and courage amid the divisive actions of the coalition partners. To date, the PM has been overseas for the TPB first reading, the hīkoi and avoided Waitangi this year. His actions speak volumes.

This is a great piece and worth the watch. The first 3 or 4 min are an interesting insight into the 'flood the zone' approach employed by the Trump administration's first weeks in office and one we've seen here in Aotearoa NZ with the current coalition govt.

The 'veiled threat' to remove or reduce future funding for Waitangi hapū/iwi from SJ is the EXACT reason that a Fast Track Approvals group is a dangerous and potentially disastrous idea. Ironically, we have SJ to thank for this clear and undeniable example of why it won't work.

It seems the US has the same playbook as the NZ coalition govt. DOGE appears similar to the Ministry of Regulation, Public Service jobs axed, and attacks on minority and diversity groups. The money and power players in NZ aren't on full display as in the US but their influence is just as impactful.

“Why did police shelve an investigation into a teenager’s sex abuse allegations about former Act Party president Tim Jago 25 years before he was eventually convicted?”

My video / article: Our Health Isn't Your Wealth, Shane Reti & Lester Levy Last year i.e. in 2024 alone, Chris Luxon liquidated 3 of his properties - he is cashed up and ready to go for new investment opportunities. Meanwhile he's admitted talking to wealthy foreigners & investment banks.

Want to see open corruption on display in NZ? Look no further than Chris Bishop NOTE: Winton Property Development was rejected by Kainga Ora for their plans to build in Auckland's flood plains. They also refused to consult with local authorities including Councils and airports.

For a while now, I've thought this narrative of a 'cost of living crisis' is much more a 'cost of giving' issue. This clip, part of the doco - Capitalism in the 21st Century, is a fascinating and disturbing experiment that shows the deep and perverse issues with Western ideology and individualism.

An interesting read and one that isn't too surprising based on the history of Aotearoa NZ. Neo liberal capitalists are looking to close the loop and aren't bothering to hide their intentions anymore. Credit to E-Tangata and Mountain Tui.

A great clip from @patbrittenden.bsky.social and the BHN crew. I strongly recommend watching the full interview and commentary on their YT channel and sharing it far and wide. Matthew Hooton goes full send no handbrake into divisive ideologies and policies being forced on NZ'ers from the govt.

Conventional wisdom in 2024 seems to dictate that the Covid-19 response was an overreaction, but that conventional wisdom is wrong. My analysis on the Royal Commission report and the response to it: newsroom.co.nz/2024/12/03/h...
