This is for all the "BuT CaPiTaL fLiGhT" arguments that if the richest have just a tiny bit less wealth, they will all depart NZ. #NZPOL

Nice one @duncanwebbmp.bsky.social ⤴️

NACT1 are successfully ‘flooding the zone with shit’ right now, but the Pae Ora bill really needs more scrutiny. Among other things, they are legislating to remove the principle that healthcare should be equitable! Scum. #nzpol

"What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent spineless meal? Get your hand off my pens sir!" #chloe democracy manifest #nzpol

Kiwis are DYING. we need to start taxing wealth, and funding health. For fuck sake. I await Nicola Willis telling us ‘it’s not personal’ www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa... #NZPOL

If there is one thing that we can actually take action on this week, it is to submit on the Pae Ora amendment bill. It really will give the power for private interests to cripple our health system for future generations. #nzpol

In amongst the sheer tsunami of filth the current govt is pushing out, the Pae Ora amendment bill is set to do long term damage to our already compromised health system. This post isn’t mine but summarizes it well: www.reddit.com/r/nzpolitics... This bill needs more media attention! #nzpol

Don't forget whanau, submissions on this bill are due in 10 days time! You can submit here: www.parliament.nz/en/pb/sc/mak... Want more info on the bill? The PSA sums it up here: www.psa.org.nz/submissions/... & @hadr0nc0llider.bsky.social has written www.reddit.com/r/nzpolitics... #nzpol #kikorangi

I Pulled together some figures into an article to try and pull some simple info together about wealth inequality in NZ. Its rough, but if you are interested in seeing how lopsided wealth distribution is in NZ: open.substack.com/pub/tylerdur... #NZPOL

So ive decided that instead of just spraying my thoughts all over reddit & discord, my more serious thoughts will now be housed on substack. Im no writer so have no expectations, but im also open for suggestions of other kiwi stacks? #nzpol tylerdurdan69.substack.com/p/new-zealan...

Why is Plunkets moral and ethical poverty here not being picked up by mainstream media? His financial backers are ACT supporters, it’s all public record. Why are kiwis tolerating this? #nzpol

Can we acknowledge the line I keep seeing Seymour trot out - "No one has explained how considering the ToW helps the boat go faster'. NZ NEEDS regulation to make the 'boat' of greed move slower. See Pike River, Coal Creek, leaky homes for what happens when business is given freedom #NZPOL #BHN

Advocating for children to be subject to citizens' arrests reveals the true motives of the policy: giving pathetic bullies a social licence to live out their power fantasy of intimidating and dominating people smaller and weaker than themselves.

Just seeing that the select committee are all dialling in for the RSB subs. Is this not the same govt that told public servants to get back to the office for culture and performance? Rules for thee but not for me as normal. #nzpol #bhn

According to Reddit, Chris Luxon has deleted his apology video on YT to the state care survivors after being questioned in the comments about broken promises. Appears true. Just when you thought he couldn’t get any weaker! #nzpol #bhn

Todays Victim of RDS is none other than David Seymour. With a skin thinner than a pavlovas, David's best promotion of his bill is to attack opposing views. He cant find anyone outside ACT to promote his bill, so his derangement leads him to think he is a victim. #NZPOL #BHN

So MPs get a 20% super contribution from the taxpayer? Should be halved to 10% to align with halving the govt contribution to ours MPs urged to 'lead by example' and trim superannuation subsidy www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic.... Be a good position to take Chippy! #nzpol

Absolute howler from Willis on Q+A when asked about lack of progress/priority on child poverty targets - “We didn’t campaign on making that positive change for low income families.”. I hope the left never let her or NACT forget this hypocrisy about campaign promises vs actions #NZPOL

The budget - so much has already been said. The only war that matters is the class war, and this budget has the power to win it for EITHER side. If the left can find simple effective bytes & talk to the many, MANY people who this budget hurts, we may just have chance. #NPOL #BHN

@patbrittenden.bsky.social @chewienz.bsky.social Does being a registered media council member grant you any advocacy from the council to approach treasury on your behalf?

I feel absolute DISGUST that @clrenney.bsky.social is being stonewalled from the budget lock up, both as CTU & BHN. This is actual Trumpism by the finance minister of NZ. I hope the media crucify them for this #nzpol #bhn

When the Freeze Peach union show you who they are, remember it! #nzpol

#nzpol At 5pm yesterday, the Treasury informed the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions Te Kauae Kaimahi (NZCTU) it has been barred from attending the Budget lock-up on 22 May. This is the first time the CTU has been prevented from attending a Budget lock-up in living memory

Luxons galling 'We are living beyond our means' is deceptive framing. It is NOT a household budget, the government can choose to increase its income (tax) but chooses not to. Lets not let him away with the fact that its a CHOICE they are making. #NZPOL #BHN

This Thursday at 7pm, @clrenney.bsky.social is doing a written AMA on the NZPolitics subreddit. Its a great community & well worth supporting. link below to the Announcement. Come and support Craig & ask your burning Qs! #NZPOL #BHN www.reddit.com/r/nzpolitics...

Astonishingly for a party committed to the sanctity of private contracts, this Bill will make all review clauses under existing settlement agreements unenforceable. This reaches into every workers contract and removes clauses agreed to by both sides. www.beehive.govt.nz/sites/defaul...

So well done by the Aotearoa Liberation League. Corrupt Media 101. #nzpol

@clrenney.bsky.social Would you be able to tell us what the NZ version of this meme would look like? Be great to see how much the average drops when excluding top 100 people etc? #nzpol

Don't believe Shane Jones recent lies that more mining, more oil drilling, more emissions will make New Zealanders richer. Here's him in 2008 about how costly it will be for the New Zealand public if carbon emissions aren't slowed. #nzpol #nzpolitics

Mum crossed the sea to be here, & often says ‘Who the fuck am I to say what’s best for Māori’ & ‘Māori should be sovereign over everyone imo’, mind, she’s of the dirt poor Glasgow variety & has intergenerational hatred of the coloniser mindset, still. She’d fist fight Seymour over this one. #nzpol

Honestly Winston Peters is like the guy who stays in a bar when the staff are packing up at the end of the night, unaware he’s not wanted and burden. Same vibes. #nzpol

f you want to find the data and more on this - head over to our Substack where you can pick up all the information open.substack.com/pub/labourca...

David Seymour completely & utterly believes in the ideology he preaches. He truly believes - no hesitation or doubt. No matter what resistance he encounters, it will always be dismissed for whatever reason. He will not stop, he cannot be reasoned with. Like a terminator, or cancer. #nzpol

Anyone else checked their KiwiSaver balance today? BRUTAL for most people in a balanced or growth fund. It should be a warning about the end result of when right-libertarian & nationalist ideals gain economic influence. #nzpol

If this advertisement "may reasonably be regarded as encouraging or persuading voters to vote *for*" the Green Party? Then there's an argument it's illegal.

David Seymour is truly so into his own ideology that he thinks the only reason 90% of people rejected his kaka bill is because 90% of kiwis are anti democracy. No Dave, it’s the other 10% that are against democracy. ACT puffing the copium pipe on this one! #nzpol

Dont give NACT any credit for saying the submissions will be processed. They will not be considered for the report, so its still undemocratic. And if they will be processed, why not then wait until that's done before the report is completed? They just want it done before election time. #nzpol #BHN

#nzpol This speaks for itself.

@duncanwebbmp.bsky.social can you please reiterate to the justice committee that if a beneficiary doesn’t meet their obligations they get their benefit cut. The justice committee has clear stated responsibility to process all submissions yet can just opt out of obligation? Utter hypocrisy!! #nzpol

NACT: "Infrastructure planning should be bipartisan & long term - get on board Labour". Also NACT: "We cancelled the ferries and now will buy a worse product with less long-term benefit & pass the problem on to future governments & generations". OK Thanks Nikki No-boats #nzpol

Genuinely FnCK Luxon and Seyour, their blatant double standards with respecting democracy, and their faux equality. Someone ask that meat puppet Seymour whether all tpb submissions are equal before the law if they get excluded. #nzpol

Seeing the reaction of the ACT simps to the green MP controversy this week - inspired me to meme their hypocrisy #nzpol #BHN

ACT: “we need a referendum on tpb so people can express their views” Also ACT: “we don’t need to process all of the public submissions it’s a waste of time” Again showing their disdain for democracy despite claiming to be protectors of it. #nzpol

Gordon Ramsay slams David Seymour #nzpol

@duncanwebbmp.bsky.social I see our high-iq finance minister opposing local consultation on adding a supermarket. I hope you and your media team get out into the locals there and get some local feedback put into the news cycle with her comments spliced in!! #nzpol

You know for a guy who supposedly advocates for personal responsibility and individual rights, Seymour seems dead keen to stop medical professionals with qualifications and experience HE doesn’t have, from telling everyone why ACTs position is so flawed. #nzpol

Seymour wanting to silence criticism from subject experts just further proves he acts in bad faith. He ‘wants the conversation’ on his terms, under his rules. He did it with TPB, lunches and now doctors. #nzpol

Maybe I have missed it, but has there been any data released yet on the for/against split for TPB submissions, or any analysis at all? #nzpol
