On the surface, this looks good but why wait? Govt could pass this now, under urgency. But no, they don't care enough to pass it now. #nzpol

The facts that need to be spread like a wild fire. I will never buy any products from Bayer again

He forgot about Tama Pōtaka and thought James Meager is in Cabinet. And then says we need talent. Perhaps he should resign then 🙄 www.instagram.com/reel/DWziLP9...

Does Willis understand the ‘fuel crisis’ isn’t just about fuel being expensive, but it that EVERYTHING becomes more expensive? Saying beneficiaries don’t have to drive to work ignores that they still have kids to drop off & pickup, still have to buy food & other goods for their families… #nzpol

Remember when ai mistook Brooke Van Velsen for Aunt Lydia? Well they weren't that far off the mark @emilywrites.co.nz #nzpol

When the right uses the term "the economy" they are only talking about rich peoples money. When the left uses the term "the economy" they mean all of our money. When you make the correction in your head, it all makes sense #nzpol

And that's why we should call anything less than the living wage, the "poverty wage" - it's barely enough to survive! #nzpol

By the time we get to the election we'll have no ferries, no fuel and insufficient solar power roll out. And the CoC will blame Labour #nzpol

Here’s the correct advice: www.rnz.co.nz/life/wellbei...

You gotta be fucking kidding me! Get the new booster vs get accumulated damage. Not a hard choice. An updated booster hit the shelves last week. Go get it!! #nzpol #nzcovid

Perhaps the good people of Whangarei will towards @garypayinda.bsky.social now that Reti is gone burger? #nzpol

Shane Reti is gone burger #nzpol #snapelectionnow #onetermgovt www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Remember when Luxon first became PM and everyone was going UGH. And they tried to spin it with a "you don't know the real Luxon" bs? Well, now that we know him, he is Mr 28% #nzpol #onetermgovt #snapelectionnow #ishegoneyet👀

Time to get your boosters and mask up e te whānau. We are in our 9th wave of Covid and an updated vaccine just hit the shelves a week ago. #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Would it not breach New Zealand's privacy laws? #nzpol

We should stop calling it "minimum wage" or "below living wage" and start calling it the "POVERTY WAGE"! #nzpol

I mean, fuckin' Hwhat? #NZPol

Now, I freely admit that I am probably not labours target demo, but if their answer to a single term of the fastest dismantling of progress we have ever seen in this country is; "steady now, we cant move too quickly, cant fix everything, temper your expectations" I am not confident

Also a hat tip of respect to @paulbarlownz.bsky.social who very much shares the same mission as BHN, and BHN stable mates Frontline with @garypayinda.bsky.social, and Locked out with @clrenney.bsky.social. personal hi five to my mate Jez and his podcast Interconnector for his Judges pick award

Well deserved, congratulations 🙌

Awesome to see Clöe Swarbrick on Gary's Economics!

Oh no 😬 #nzpol

NZ Govt must take action, or resign. #nzpol #Gaza #genocide #SanctionIsrael

And if members of the Five Eyes meant to expanded that concern to children outside of their joint legal jurisdictions, you would think that they would be raising their collective voices against the most horrific instance yet ongoing. #nzpol

Agree! And us voters need to stop voting for any political candidate who appear on there.

Primary school teachers reject latest pay offer, will vote on strike action I stand with #teachers, #midwives, #nurses, carers, doctors & all who NZ Govt robbed of #PayEquity #nzpol

February March next year!! #nzpol

With the $8.5B hole in National’s budget & the fact that ACT policies would ruin us further, this is the perfect opportunity for progressive policies to step into the void. We can save Aotearoa by creating jobs that build green infrastructure to address intensifying climate disruption. #nzpol

Awesome points!

Damn right!

We've had a couple of years of seeing what vision NAT/ACT/NZ1 have for this country. and then I watch speeches from Tūrangawaewae... I know this country NEEDS Māori centred vision to take us ALL forward

There’s a real theme here…following on from the reserve bank debacle, with Nicky No Clue covered in unlawful interference with an independent body, now this fleck of dust thinks he’s king. Fucking shambles everywhere all of the time. 🙄 #OneTermGovernment #nzpol

Love this from Chadleft: "We accepted the principle of sacrificing short-term private profit for long-term collective health and wellbeing. That principle is an existential threat to the political right. This is why the attacks are so relentless." #nzpol #covid www.emilywrites.co.nz/why-are-peop...

Interesting analysis of who wanted to buddy up with who at the 2023 election #nzpol

"The Ombudsman's findings related to Jaques' requests in April 2024 for data from Health NZ's Care Capacity Demand Management System on how many shifts were understaffed, broken down by district." #nzpol

Interesting that Seymour suddenly wants out of this not long after the International Court of Justice determined that the 1.5°C temperature target is LEGALLY BINDING under the Paris Agreement. Heaven forbid Governments be held legally responsible for not walking their talk. #nzpol #OneTeemGovt.

NZ OIA show NZ's #EpsteinFiles = works by Richard Epstein, a US legal scholar who promoted a doctrine of regulatory takings that if colonisers' property rights are restricted, compensation should be paid. NZ Initiative's Bryce Wilkinson adopted idea for NZ's #RSB Regulatory Standards Bill. #NZpol
