There are no excuses for this. It should be a crime and Bezos should be in jail. He’s beyond redemption. Reprehensible bastard.

“It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them.” — Mayor of Pontevedra, Spain (re-elected 6 times)

For sure. The number of Wellington hospitality venues who struggled after large numbers of public sector workers were layed off and no longer buying lunch/coffee/after work drinks can attest to that

Life in 4.5 suitcases

Under the National ACT NZ First coalition, more people are without jobs than at any time in over ten years. The highest unemployment rate in a decade 🫤 Food banks are overwhelmed. Homelessness is rampant. Even those with jobs are struggling as groceries and bills rise faster than wages 💔

Bloody hell. More people out of work. Time to stop wittering about "green shoots" and face the reality: this government is failing New Zealanders. #nzpol www.stats.govt.nz/indicators/u...

people are drastically unprepared for what the media & discourse environment is going to turn into this year, I think consider the smears on Green & TPM MPs last year, the months long coordinated campaigns between muckrakers, politicians & media that led to death threats 2026 will likely be worse

Almost every “beloved Wellington business closes” has been about landlords. Even the ones about businesses struggling because of fewer people working in Wellington have been because the landlord does not care and will not help.

"Pretty icky"? PRETTY ICKY?!?! If that's not a massive flaming red flag, I don't know what is

Impressive: Winston Peters is in government and opposition at the same time

NZ has fallen into a 'crisis and response' pattern on climate disaster, experts say. Billions have been spent on storm recovery since 2023, while key climate adaptation funding and planning tools have been cut. My story looking at last week’s storms www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Counterpoint: handing out KFC is the most useful thing he's ever actually done.

What an embarrassing and pathetic man

Why didn’t he pay a local caterer to supply food for morale-lifting purposes?? Why didn’t he handshake and shoulder squeeze the local couple who have been supplying hamburgers to the workers FREE OF CHARGE from their mobile food cart for the past week?? Why KFC FFS 🤦‍♀️ The man is sans nous.

Imagine going through life being this fucking tragic.

Today the Speaker told MPs that the only way to challenge the blatant lies and overt dishonesty of Government Ministers is through the Privileges Committee. Can't be done using a Point Of Order. How fucked-up is that?🤔💩🤬 #OneTermGovernment #nzpol

Leaders should absolutely show up, but disaster response isn’t a photo op or should be trivialised. Watching our Prime Minister hand out boxes of KFC to impacted communities was peak cringe IMO. We need serious, systems-level action and that 6b resilience fund like yesterday.

Firearms belong to liberals now.

we are living in the golden age for assholes, there has never been a better time to be an unredeemable asshole than the one we are currently living in

Who needs enemies etc

Oooh just had my first Roy Morgan call. I was VERY excited to say the country was heading in the wrong direction due to this government 😂

THIS. Politics is political. Election year is a perfect time for Nicola 'No Boats' Willis to announce her retirement if she finds that axiom too triggering. #nzpol

📢 Three of five members on the Ministerial Advisory Group for victims of retail crime have resigned in recent weeks with one saying she could no longer work with the chairperson Sunny Kaushal.

NZ taxpayers spent $6M to bring Michelin stars here and only paid $3M to the WHO. Contributing to world health seems like a much better spend to me. #nzpol

You know Alex Pretti & Renee Good—the 2 white people ICE killed. ICE has also killed Keith Porter, a Black man, Parady La, a Cambodian man, & 5 Latinos—Heber Sanchaz Domínguez, Victor Manuel Diaz, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz, Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres, and Geraldo Lunas Campos. 9 TOTAL. ABOLISH ICE.

The PM is *literally* at the pub during a state of emergency in the country. I mean …

7th November isn't far away, smaller parties need our help as they don't have the wealthy donors. If you can't donate financially, donate some time delivering leaflets, door knocking or phone canvassing. Preferably for the @greens.org.nz #nzpol

Luxon today: “We won’t be working with Te Pāti Māori because they’ve got a separatist agenda” Te Pati Māori today:

Fix it from who? The fuck have you been doing the last 3 years, you festering cyst of a government?

On Friday the Greens provided journalists a ‘prebuttal’ of the PM’s forthcoming speech. Today I feel we deserve some kind of prize (I mean, not the Nobel) for correctly predicting about 90% of the content, betting it would continue the relentless pursuit of the interests of the wealthy and sorted

Won't people think of the rich and their precious pools?! (seriously I can't stop laughing at this headline)

No comment.

Listen up, we need to get that motherfucker Luxon out of office, because if you think Peters and Seymour have been bad this term it's nothing compared to what they will pull term two and Luxon is way too weaksause to control them in any way. Also, the Nats are freaking awful! #NZPol

Mamdani has only been Mayor for a day & criminals are already fleeing New York

I leaflet dropped for the wonderful Sam Ferguson when he was campaigning for GWRC. Took me an hour, I'm sure that most people can spare an hour. 1000 people doing an hour here and there quickly adds up

The positivity in this is utterly intoxicating. In a world of hopelessness, I feel hope. I absolutely recommend watching the entire thing✊🏻

Politicians of Aotearoa New Zealand THIS is how you win people over, listen to them #nzpol

Someone told Central Labour in Aotearoa this is how you do shit? None of this insipid Centralism Incrementalism Bollocks like GST off fruit, and loans to GPs

Absolutely crucial this year #nzpol

Mamdani: "The cost of childcare will no longer discourage young adults from starting a family, because we will deliver universal childcare for the many by taxing the wealthiest few"

Mamdani: I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing. The only expectation I seek to reset is that of small expectations.

In light of the rampant abuse of power NZ is facing with this Govt dismantling laws that stop us being looted and taken over by big money it's probably a good time for people to check out or revisit this excellent investigative piece by Mihingarangi Forbes ... #NZPol www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLOj...

My cartoon in today's www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3609... It's been a year. I dedicate today's cartoon to my dearest friend Peta Kennedy. She was a staunch supporter of me & my work and know she would have approved this message. Sending love to her family at this time ❤️‍🩹

Loved this interview. Please make the time to listen to it as the written summary is not an accurate representation of what was said #nzpol www.teaonews.co.nz/2025/12/28/g...
