It's June(!?) and for the first time, I'm doing #sweatwithpride! Every day this month I'll cram in 21 minutes of excercise to raise money for LGBTQIA+ causes💪💪

The amazing assets this city has! 😍 Look the Netherlands is great and has lots more bike infrastructure. But bike lanes you can build, landscapes like this you can’t. Feeling lucky to be living in this beautiful part of the world. ❤️💚

Fantastic news for ANZ gamers! A large bird told me there's some excellent stuff in the lineup too.

Note you can also update your details at vote.nz using a drivers license or passport but flagging that the RealMe verification option seems much harder than it needs to be if your RealMe info has expired (and who knew that it expired 🤔). May be good to double check all is correct ahead of time.

You deserve to be able to vote in your local council election this year, so make sure that you can by going to Vote.nz and checking and updating your details there.

When the Dunedin City Council adopted its Zero Carbon Plan, they promised to take ‘high & medium level investment options’ out for public feedback during the Long Term Plan. In January, they narrowly voted to exclude them altogether. Until now. zerocarbondunedin.org

The Green Party is calling for the Prime Minister to show leadership and be unequivocal about Aotearoa New Zealand’s opposition to a proposal by the US President to remove Palestinians from Gaza.

Ōtepoti: Palestine solidarity Samah Sabawi The esteemed Palestinian author, playwright and poet will join us to discuss her latest book, and the pathway to Palestinian liberation, justice and peace. Wednesday 19 February 6-7:30pm Yours cafe (43 Moray Pl) facebook: facebook.com/events/s/an-...

On this Waitangi Day, I see a President speaking of ethnically cleansing an entire group of people to make way for beach resorts. There’s little New Zealanders can do about that level of evil and hatred on foreign shores but we can seek to redress it and prevent it from taking root again here.

Having a bad day? Look at the baby albatross! Feeling stressed? Consider looking at the baby albatross. Bored and at a loose end on a Friday afternoon? Have you considered looking at a baby albatross?

“To any companies thinking of taking advantage of this fast track process, let me be clear: there is a risk that approved projects may be exposed to proper scrutiny next time there is a change of government, which could include loss of the consent, possibly without compensation.” #nzpol

Thousands marched in Ōtepoti to this morning. A palpable feeling of kotahitanga; te Tiriti brings the people together

Casey Costello should absolutely step down from her position as associate minister of health. It's your local opposition MP's job to demand it - get in touch and remind them. www.govt.nz/browse/engag... #nzpol

Greens toolkit:

"The very least people should expect of their government is that if they are going to knowingly send defence force personnel into a situation that could inflame global conflict it is first debated by elected representatives." Refreshing sanity from Shaw and Davidson #nzpol
