I propose a simple law change - any government business conducted on MP's and advisors' personal emails immediately makes the private email address subject to OIAs.

'Cause he's an arsehole. Saved you a click.

Iran says it does not trust US as Trump toughens terms. Can’t blame them TBH.

I keep seeing signs and advertisements for Cedar restoration companies. Makes me think that Cedar might not be a great solution for cladding houses.

I’m starting to think that Liam Lawson has the saying “Under promise, over deliver” back-to-front.

In a typical play, Trump plans to spend the $1.8 billion compensation fund on Trump Phones, which he’ll issue to claimants. Man’s gonna clip the ticket somehow.

Headlines: "The U.S. charges Raúl Castro". Cuba should respond by laying charges against Trump at the International Criminal Court.

If A.I. can spout endless neoliberal slogans on request, why do we even need a NCTNZ cabinet?

Reminder to mainstream politicians: If you don’t actually deliver anything positive to voters you shouldn’t be surprised that they decide to vote for populist shitgibbons.

Lincoln wouldn’t have been assassinated if only his predecessors had built a theatre in the White House grounds.

Hey, David Seymour, isn't this your hero? Javier Milei's data since he has been governing in Argentina: ▫️300,000 jobs have been lost. ▫️22,000 companies have closed. ▫️Annual inflation of 31.5%. ▫️Growth -2.6%.

Maternal grandfather’s brother Victor Theunissen was born in 1883. Very little is known about him other than he died “Missing in Action” at sea.

FIFA announces that all countries which are members of Trump’s Board of Peace (but no one else) are through to the World Cup.

So, should the MSM pivot from “Luxon to be rolled” to “Nat MPs lose their bottle”?

The Russian poet Mandelstam’s description of Stalin’ relationship between the dictator and his loyal servants applies perfectly to Trump and his henchmen: ‘Ringed with a scum of chicken-​necked bosses / he toys with the tributes of half-​men / One whistles, one meows, a third snivels’.

5.34 million New Zealanders, and only one of us thinks Luxon is the man for the job. (The exception is Luxon himself).

In both Karl Marx and Donald Trump’s worlds, truth, like justice and morality, is not absolute. It is framed and shaped by the ruling class to serve the end of perpetuating its own hegemony.

TBH, I don't care if Luxon survives or not, but whichever way it goes I hope it results in a Left government after the elections.

So have I got this right - no National MP is respected by enough of his/her colleagues to win support to lead the party. This must be the first time they align with my judgement.

Thinking of adding "AI" my name to improve my value 600%.

Even if NATO got donkey-deep into the Iran war and securing the Straits of Hormuz, this wouldn’t mean that the 🍊💩 wouldn’t try to destroy NATO anyway. It might just postpone it until the shooting stops.

I’m desperately hoping that in the run-up to our elections the Coalition of Corruption can get JD Vance out to NZ to make a speech in their support.

Sounds like Schrödinger's Straits of Hormuz really, doesn’t it?

Woman calls Peters a liar (blind pig finds acorn). www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

I love Americans belief that putting people “under oath” results in the truth coming out.

Israel will do everything in its power to void the ceasefire.

The NZ Cabinet re-shuffle was we need is for Luxon to be placed on the discard pile.

For myself, I couldn’t think of anyone I’d rather rely on to see us through a fuel crunch than Nicola Willis and Shane Jones.

Things I’ve learned from apocalypse movies: #1 - Get rid of any teenagers in your family on day one. They’ll only disobey instructions soon and get you into a world of hurt.

Mr President, these Iranians that you’re negotiating with, are they in the room with you now?

Shane Jones telling lies? Who would have guessed? www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

Hey NActFirst, while no one can afford fuel the roads will be empty, so now’s the time to get on with building more of them!

Oh well played ASBBank. Hiding the “Log Off” button on your iPhone App kept me amused for ten minutes.

OFFS, the people who "designed" TicketMaster's processes should be charged with crimes against humanity, the developers who wrote their Apps should be drummed out of the IT industry, and any event manager who uses TicketMaster should be summarily fired.

Winston Peters is reminds us of the grumpy, racist, know-it-all old uncle that everyone seems to have had.

I’m quite happy for politicians to have a contest of ideas. I get incensed by the lying.

Nostradamus Peters: I predicted resignation of Fonterra CEO. Is this man ever wrong about anything? (Asking for a friend.)

Starting to think “Lord Luxon of Lampton Quay” has a fine ring to it.

Heather du Plessis-Allan: Do we owe our Covid conspiracy friends an apology? “Covid conspiracy” and “friends” don’t even belong in the same sentence.

Do we owe our Covid conspiracy friends an apology? - Heather du Plessis-Allan No. Saved you a click.

Tricky stuff, this oyster shucking.

Coalition of Corruption announces fuel rationing: Only utes and cars with retail value of more than $100,000 allowed petrol, only farmers, truckers and fishing fleet allowed diesel.

We need a Royal Commission into the ferry fiasco. As soon as the Coalition of Corruption are kicked out of government.

NZFirst calls for Royal Commission into why Royal Commissions can’t find anything to blame the previous Labour government for.

Herald: “Foreign buyers: Is there a shortage of $5m-plus homes in NZ?” No, you can have my place for $5 million.

Got to love that the Coalition of Corruption spent $14 million to confirm that Labour managed the pandemic almost faultlessly.

The only National Anthem I actually admire is the French one.

A couple of million to a Trump benefit should see them pardoned. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...
