you’re telling me that yet another one of these guys is a degenerate sex criminal? i’m shocked

Holding an investment summit for the rich the day after you've ensured lowest paid workers will get about 9k less a year is note perfect National politics under Luxon.

Seems worth noting that this is a bigger problem precisely because David Seymour chose to centralise a system that was actually working at local level.

🚨⚠️ Breaking news: This is a push from the anti-choice, anti-lgbtqia ideology that is present in the National Party, NZ First Party & ACT. Every anti-choice group in the country is pushing for this. Time to contact your schools & MPs! #RSE #nzpol #alranz #Luxon #NZFirst #ACT #TransYouth

For #abortionprividerappreciation day we would like to highlight Dame Margaret Sparrow, who not only campaigned for abortion rights & access, but performed abortions throughout her career. #alranz #abortion #nzpol #abortionrightsaotearoa

some helpful reminders: -not all jews support israel -criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic -being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas -arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment -violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad

That was not even 24 hours before a poll proved that point very wrong 🔥

A Horizon Research survey finds: 39% (around 1,500,000 adults) are concerned about how the coalition government is performing. 38% (1,453,000 adults) are disappointed 34% (1,322,000 adults) are frustrated 24% (908,000 adults) are angry 22% (846,000 adults) say they are delusional. #nzpol

Today is a good day. Greens outpolling National and Luxon may have to fire himself. He’s taking calls at 4pm.

I listened from here all the way up to minute 36 and I must note that Hoots is SO MEAN to Luxon that it's incredibly satisfying I did not do bursary and I did not go to an elite school and none of that stuff is at all important to me but it clearly is to Hoots and Luxo. The reading for filth!

Phil Goff was right and his comments *should* be seen as representative of Aotearoa.

School lunches. An old cartoon from this time last year. Sigh.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

2 day change -1,400 (always a tweet)

Let this sink in.

This is sickening reading but massive kudos to my colleague @eddiegay.bsky.social for bringing it to light.

Congratulations to Simeon Brown You can now go that much faster down the road to save a grand total of 3 seconds off your travel time to the next queue of cars While the fatality rate if you hit a kid outside school or anywhere else goes from 10% to 80-95%

APPALLING does not begin to describe the absolutely vile pig shit that is being forced upon our precious Tamariki under this abomination of a coalition government. Healthy food for our children is not a nice to have, it’s non-negotiable! #nzpol #OneTermGovernment www.thepress.co.nz/nz-news/3605...

Lol! Steve Braunias does it again. newsroom.co.nz/2025/03/01/t...

John Bolton on BBC just now: "I think we are in danger not just of losing the NATO alliance [...] but practically every alliance around the world as our friends and allies look at this performance and wonder if there's anybody in this administration who understands what's at stake here."

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

Auckland Mayor reluctantly re-commits $15m to restore St James Theatre

Today's four year parliamentary term announcement. National policy? No, ACT policy as part of the coalition agreement.

Who exactly *did* they consult on their brilliant plan? This is just hapless shit.

Can the gangs do citizens’ arrests too? Asking for some friends.

Give these guys the power to violently arrest you what could go wrong? www.1news.co.nz/2025/02/11/e...

And already, this. Perhaps the government could experiment with occasionally thinking it through.
