Not the Māori Millionaire dissing whānau for not growing their own veggies 🙄 It's an easy punch down but super uncool to see this encouragement to diss our most vulnerable families 😢

I don’t understand why Lucifer is fondling that doctor.

This heavy use of urgency — shortcuts in the parliamentary process — is cheating democracy. And ministers know it too.

Penny Marie Claridge is also on this grift. Yes there is a membership structure to be part of Erika's little club #NZPol Penny Marie is Let Kids Be Kids NZ, and has had school Pride events shutdown last year with her hateful attacks on our Rainbow whanau

Libertarians and rapey "oh you don't wanna do something with me sober? what if i get you drunk" vibes, name a more iconic duo.

Really surprised it's not a white whine.

The comments Tamaki's posts inspired on Twitter, and Facebook featured tsunami of violence, hate, and racism against Indians, Muslims, Africans, and Middle Easterners. If (when?) there's an act of terrorism/violence against NZ's Indian community, *remember this awful record of incitement*. #nzpol

So Willis goes to Washington asking when things will return to normal (they wont), and Luxon still thinks this will all blow over as fuel stocks are below minimum levels and we are now seeing delayed shipments National are just absolutely useless

Goldsmith is a dangerous free-market ideologue. Zero accountability is his favourite kind. #NzPol

Note to self: put these quotes from Luxon aside into a folder marked ‘PM’s fuel comments history’ to refer to at a later date.

Oh are we identifying the ideology of lobby groups now? That's great! I look forward to the NZ Initiative, Free Speech Union, Taxpayers' Union, and every bank economist being called right-wing in the headlines of their numerous self-generated stories from now on.

Voices for Freedom absolutely loves Martin Sellner, & keeps retweeting him (so that he reaches more domestic followers). Wrote about Sellner, and VFF/RCR in 2024: Martin Sellner’s far-right playbook: A threat to New Zealand’s liberal democracy sanjanah.wordpress.com/2024/10/15/m... #nzpol

Worth noting the book Sellner's referring to tweet, that by extension, VFF provides a pathway to in New Zealand, is titled 'Remigration'. It's a pet subject of VFF: Unthinkable in 2019, entrenched in 2026: White supremacism’s weekly broadcasts in New Zealand sanjanah.wordpress.com/2026/02/23/u...

Talking about Donald Trump having dementia just gives a sympathetic excuse for inexcusable preexisting conditions. Donald has *always* been a mean, self-centered, incoherent fool who says stupid and ignorant things.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

So let me get this straight? Ex-Free Speech Union Ceo Jonathon Ayling is selling $100,000 of wine for the ACT Party *after* he is awarded one of David Seymour's charter schools? #NZPol www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

My students had not heard of AI psychosis. So we talked about it.

1. Noem blames Stephen Miller and Trump for ICE violence 2. Noem is fired 3. Lewandowski is fired 4. 2 DHS officials tell the Daily Mail that Stephen Miller instructed ICE to cause violence 5. Someone leaked photos of Noem's husband cross-dressing to the Daily Mail Do I have that right?

Elon Musk is facing *another* class action lawsuit alleging he committed civil securities fraud in the run up to his Twitter buyout. This one is in the S. District of NY. Oklahoma Firefighters Pension & Retirement System v. Elon R. Musk et al The investors suing him got class certification today.

The outbursts by Trump and Rubio in recent days on NATO basically shows the scale of the strategic error in Iran is starting to sink in. The most likely scenario now is US withdrawal, mega strop with NATO and leaving the Gulf states to pick up the bill with a strategically emboldened Iran.

It’s Sunday night, so it’s once again stock market manipulation time for Trump. How much will his family profit off his unwanted war this time?

This 50 yr old woman spent 5 months in jail accused of a crime in a state she's never even been to, because Clearview AI misidentified her as the suspect. A judge signed off on it, cops went along with it, no process in place to even question the AI. www.cnn.com/2026/03/29/u...

Such an important thread.

Wives and mothers of miners lost in 2010 deadly Pike River mine explosion say proposed reforms to NZ’s #HealthAndSafety laws strip back protections created after tragedy and are a disservice to memories of their loved ones. What's Winston Peters word on this? #NZpol newsroom.co.nz/2026/03/26/p...

This National Party attack ad is stupid - they can't even focus on a job without resorting to "blame Labour". BTW Global inflation was 9-10% during Covid. NZ did much better than most. And Labour saved 20,000 lives. National's debt is tracking to $120b ($100b w pay equity) without a crisis.

No Kings just cats with a surprise guest at the end 😸

Courts of New Zealand dare to leave the X cesspit #NZPol. Get called "outrageous" by right-wing pollster. We'll they've got the 'rage' part down pat. Just waiting for indignation and affronted to show up - oh hang on found them, see the quote tweets on this

“National would have screwed up the Covid response” yes we all have eyes we can look to the UK and US that had right wing govts for example. We don’t have to give these people the benefit of the doubt ok we know. We have decades of precedence. STOP GIVING THESE PEOPLE THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.

Far-right politicians across Europe who enthusiastically embraced Donald Trump following his re-election are now rapidly retreating from the relationship, with the Iran conflict and his demands for NATO intervention serving as the breaking point.
