Oh FFS it shouldn't be this easy to take out our internet services. All that money NZ taxpayers spend on 'cyber-security' and we get this. Who needs enemies? www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3607...

You'd think with what's happening in the PM's office, and now Seymour is Deputy, that there should be some serious consideration among media that they pick this story back up.

Chris Bishop is emailing his constituents to "explain" his drunken racism at the Aotearoa Music Awards.

The thing I keep coming back to is that our Parliament doesn't NEED to be an institution hostile to te ao Māori. MPs have a huge amount of control over the tikanga of the House, and at any time they could just make it... Better. The only ones who can stop that are MPs themselves.

Three men sit in a cell in El Salvador. The first asks the second why he has been imprisoned. He replies, "Because I criticized Elon Musk." The first man responds, "But I am here for praising Musk!" They ask the third man who has been sitting quietly in the back. He answers, "I AM Elon Musk".

Parliament agreeing such a disproportionate punishment by such a thin majority is a thousand times more contemptuous than TPM momentarily disrupting proceedings to take a stand. Disgraceful. #nzpol

Well what happened today in Parliament makes complete sense when you realize bullying and subjugating Māori was core tenet of the coalition agreement. Every policy every budget decision leads back to that.

The Parliament responsible for this atrocity should be held in contempt at every opporunity. Those who fail to be respectful and respectable earn no respect. #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

This is a stain on Parliament. A vulgar triumph of prissy legalism and historical fabrication over justice and reality. Naked exercise of majoritarian power to punish those who insist that the truth of history is still the truth even if it is not popular www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

There's probably a lot of regime MPs at Wellington airport right now. If you see one, tell them to get fucked.

Performing a haka in Parliament more disreputable than getting drunk and heckling an artist on a freebie you got for being a Minister is it? Worse than laying hands on a staff member is it? Worse than Winston's caustic racism in the House today, is it? Get fucked.

So, parliamentary staff: how do you feel about working for a colonialist, white supremaist institution which denies Māori representation? You should quit, now, before the stink rubs off on you.

Steve Abel accuses ACT of deliberately sowing division, and then crying when they got a reaction. They treated the house and the public and the treaty with disdain. He's not wrong.

Steve Abel moves an amendment to replace the claim of intimidation with "expressing their tino rangitiratanga". Seems a much more accurate statement of what the racist government wishes to punish.
