Marc Daalder on why the new LNG terminal is likely to shape up as a bad financial and climate decision. Examines Watts and Luxons facile talking points and takes them apart. Should be material for Hipkins but will he use it?

Was going to paywall but too much critical information to do so - I'll never be a good business man but who cares? Public interest first. I'll give up my days for that. New electricity tax to subsidise private corporations & fossil fuels #nzpol #kiwi

We're gonna be Trump's biatch

So SAD. Greenies protecting nature are making it hard for Luxon to suck up to Trump: US-NZ deal on critical minerals limited by fast-track denial newsroom.co.nz/2026/02/09/u...

I love Green Day so much and I’m so very happy they performed‘American Idiot’ because, well…you know… 😁

The only people left standing in the National Party Retail Advisory Crime Committee is Kaushal & a buddy. The others, representing ~80% of retail crime victims, left after citing 'serious' issues with Kaushal Most of his recommendations which Nat took have been called dangerous #nzpol

Rarely? So…sometimes they do? 👀😂

For the love of Dog, VOTE.🗳️ It matters. #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

The really important para in this article? "best performer was Kernel's S&P Global Clean Energy Fund, up 59.9 percent" Clean. Energy.

Eek..yeah…. #nzpol

Imagine gifting your parents PEACE🕊️💚

Abolish poverty.

I mean…dude. 👀🤦‍♀️ “Leading cause of crime is POVERTY” #nzpol

Luxon & his “anti-woke” circus of corrupted clowns, don’t want kiwi consumers to read this…read away at your leisure team. 😎 #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

Every official tweet is a nod to child abuse. www.thepost.co.nz/politics/360...

This is excellent & draws out something the rest of the media is ignoring: among other things, the Epstein files have made it super, super clear that the entire "anti-woke" cultural hysteria was engineered by powerful men averse to accountability.

….and Christchurch…. #nzpol

Ultimately, “Better”? #nzpol

Winston Peters is quite literally a drunk. #nzpol

Cult.

A beating heart is RED. An inanimate heart is BLUE. MATH.

Time to roll back the failed privatization experiments. No essentials services should be run for profit. The only shareholders that matter are the entirety of the people of New Zealand.

Every single “non-vote” is a vote for certain oblivion. VOTE. 🗳️ #nzpol

#nzpol This seriously is the dumbest and most destructive government we have ever had. 🤦

Honestly…no words 🤦‍♀️

100% PURE NZ? More like 100% PURE SHIT. 💩 🌊 How outrageous that two major cities are now directly shitting into our own beaches, because “rates caps” or “tobacco company tax breaks” or “landlord tax breaks” or “privatisation” or stupid braindead fucking destructive neoliberalism. 🙄 #nzpol

IT'S FEBRUARY 2026. THE RAIL ENABLED HYUNDAI FERRIES FOR I REX WERE MEANT TO ARRIVE BY NOW. Instead we have no rail enabled ferries, the two we have are clunky as fuck, and there will be no replacement ferries until 2029 at the earliest.

Kiwi-Mart anyone?

👀😡 #nzpol

I think every single airport terminal in the entire world should have this welcome sign displayed…

This shit actually does my head in. Ffs.🤦‍♀️ #nzpol

Sound familiar #nzpol? “Urgency”… “Fast-track”… cutting short debate… ignoring public & expert feedback and putting laws in anyway… 8% David forcing though the Reg Standards Bill which had failed multiple times in the past… fringe party control… lies… gaslighting… “I don’t know”… Out of control.

Breaking News: Trump is a rabid racist. Who knew? 🙄

Do you get it yet? 🙄 #TaxWealthMore #TaxWorkLess

David Seymour is a deliberate chaos agent. Prove me wrong.

Joy or suffering? 🤷‍♀️ Tricky question, I know…take your time.

I have great respect for my elders…especially when they are authentic human beings with empathy, compassion, & valid intellectual perspective. #nzpol youtu.be/cucLZcC0MqQ?...

I reckon the box office would have made billions if they’d just changed the title to… ⭐️VILANIA ⭐️

Wouldn’t it be better if we learned from our history in order to resolve the issues together, instead of just cherry picking the parts of history that fit our own myopic delusions & thus creating yet another generation of disconnected & disillusioned kiwi human beings? #nzpol

This is how captured John Key & the NZ National Party made all of us in AotearoaNZ. In other worlds or even just in other times in human history, it may have been considered treasonous. These days it’s just capitalism…on roids. #nzpol

So the COC has completely defunded health & Brown is sending a stern letter to Health NZ to meet waiting list targets because it's unacceptable. Could the media please ask him if they are going to fund health properly and let hospitals hire? Nope just going to let him blame hospitals instead. OMG
