Pak’nSave has confirmed that a leaked image of former MP Golriz Ghahraman being questioned in-store over an alleged shoplifting incident originated from its own security system. A security guard passed the image to a third party without authorisation, and has since been fired. #nzpol

James Cameron seems to have fallen into the trap that because he didn’t have it his way there was no consultation. The fact is that there was mass consultation (1800+ submissions), and we made a significant number of changes to respond to it. www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3605...

The French Government sent its agents to Aotearoa to bomb the Rainbow Warrior - because Greenpeace and the nuclear movement were so effective in their campaign to stop nuclear testing. They thought they could scare us off, but they just made us stronger.

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.

Just checking I've got this right. You're not allowed to call another member of the house a liar even if you have evidence that have said something categorically not true. But you can say that an elected representative has less rights to speak in the house because they were born overseas

I bet he is. One person died, one quit, a couple absconded, and apparently most of them have already reoffended. It's almost as if bootcamps are an expensive cruel boondoggle. I'm sure keeping the details quiet is much more comfortable for Luxon than revealing them. #nzpol

I'm saying this as somebody who's been at a lot of protests in NZ: if violence starts, it is always Destiny Church. Consistently. The only times I've been assaulted are by Destiny Church members. They are not a church, they are a violent hate group and people need to wake up to it.
