As schadenfreudelicious as it is to see Seymour & the govt bleeding political capital about this daily, what must we do to get this contract cancelled? This is actively harming our kids and their prospects.

What's the bet that Tamaki's thugs won't be charged. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

So far I've only seen digital coverage on RNZ This seems to indicate NZ media have a vested interest in publishing far-right activism above & beyond the way they cover peaceful progressive movements We should be *scrambling* to ask why that is & seeking to change it - its an outrageous precedent

DESTINY CHURCH ARE STAYING HOME: Brian Tamaki is on the run, facing public demands for his charities to be deregistered and our massive rally today. We're winning — it's time to finish this. Join DEFYING DESTINY: DAY OF QUEER POWER today at 2pm in Albert Park.

As I warned last year here it is. Govt is opening up our sensitive assets & lands to foreign acquisition & removed significant due diligence steps. Wealthy money can acquire significant business assets, existing forestry & non-farmland land within 15 days. Media reports today parrot gov #Kiwi #NZ

And here is Luxon last year salivating at wealthy money from overseas. To repeat: They are doing away with due diligence and fundamental business case practice. In an article last year, foreign investors said Kiwi assets "were cheap" and the government in charge is "friendly". #nzpol #kiwi

Musk, a neo-Nazi and friend of Putin, says all US government staff must justify their work or lose jobs And today, NZ’s Government has ensured people like Musk can buy up NZ without resistance. Who does your government work for again? #nzpol #kiwi #aotearoa

Whenever this national led govt tells you privatisation is the only way. Picture the lunches they serve our kids. Cant even feed kids and they want to run the health system. Get fucked #nzpol

200 PAGES OF DOCUMENTATION. Chris Penk was VERY VERY well informed that Candace Owens is a fucking nazi and wants to welcome her in with open arms.

Welcome to AotearoaNZ, the 51st state of the newly minted Musk/Trump Kingdom… 🤨 #OneTermGovernment #nzpol #Aotearoa #nz

Ministry of Justice refuses information on costs of processing submissions on Treaty Principles Bill legacy.www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Excellent article by Amanda Thomas putting the IPCA's plan for government control of political protest in context with other measures to do the same, both in NZ and globally. newsroom.co.nz/2025/02/20/r...

We're proud to announce our final three speakers for DEFYING DESTINY: DAY OF QUEER POWER. Sharon Hawke (Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Trust) will be opening our event, and Eru Kapa-Kingi (Toitū Te Tiriti) and drag queen Medulla Oblongata will be speaking. See you on Sunday! #nzpol #kikorangi #aotearoa #nz

Aotearoa New Zealand: let's cut jobs, services and let the economy fail just so the landlords and donors have some more money. USA: let's cut jobs, services and let the economy fail just so the billionaires have some more money. Sound similar 🤔

www.1news.co.nz/2025/02/19/w... The playbook is the same worldwide. RW benefits when they create confusion and distrust in social systems. Please, @nzlabour.nzcow.com @nzgreens.nzcow.com @tepatimaori.bsky.social don't let this go. Please SKEWER the government for this, or risk losing again.

#NZpol The challenge for any incoming and Left-leaning government is to *abandon this ethos fully and finally*. Or movements like this will just keep coming back, and every time they do, they will simply increase their capture of lost people AND their ferocity to 'correct' society as they see fit.

If you are not worried by this, you are not paying attention: newsroom.co.nz/2025/02/18/w...

I feel like more needs to be made of this. It's been an overt attack in the House from the Deputy PM and Cabinet on the equal rights of citizens to participate in our electoral system, and any migrant or child of migrants should find it as chilling as I do.

They’ll lay you off if your game isn’t a hit. They’ll lay you off if your game is a hit. They’ll award themselves and their friends millions of dollars thanks to your hard work either way. The so-called “AAA” game industry is built on pure indecency and rotten to the core.

I need people (especially the media) to stop calling it a protest when it was an intentionally violent attack on lgbtqia+ people, children, and their whānau at a public library.

You invited your "spiritual mentor" Eddie Long to New Zealand and he brought along a teenage boy to sexually abuse while he was here. Then, after multiple abuse reports had emerged, you *invited him back* and had him address a group of boys under your control.

Here's the video of the ASSAULT on Te Atatu Community Centre workers - as this government and police stay silent. BTW If you read Stuff or NZ Herald you would NOT realise how serious it was - #kiwi #destinychurch

Is Brian Tamaki protected? Yesterday Stuff edited out the worst of the video footage from their article. NZ Herald quoted Tamaki saying his people were "peacefully" protecting kids. No-one in this Govt have ever condemned them. The last gov removed 2 tax free statuses - what will THIS govt do?

Why not front page a story with all the pain and distress DS's leadership of Act has caused? Jago not being dismissed, school kids being fed prison slop, millions spunked away on TPB, his $$$$ Ministry of Regulations etc etc. All from a pipsqueak with a tiny proportion of the vote

Why is Paedo-hider David Seymour on the front page of @1newsnz.nzcow.com related to his school privatisation project, instead of what he did for Tim Jago? Why are we turning a blind eye to the sex pest and how DS prevented it from becoming a campaign issue?

I'm getting increasingly worried about how we come back from this govt, even if they only have 1 term. They're fucking up so many things, firing so many experts, degrading our resilience, hollowing out our institutions, and encouraging a toxic public discourse that erodes trust and community. #nzpol

tfw when you get made redundant because the government is gutting the public service industry. and then your private sector partner also gets made redundant, "downsizing due to recession" thank you, shitty NZ government, for this shitty economy #nzpol
