Kia Ora Earthlings! This is an important article about a PHD student puling back the curtains on Aotearoa's #economy & weather or not "NZ can't afford it" is true or not. Alas It is behind a paywall. #nzpol #debt #deficit #education www.thepost.co.nz/business/360...

It looks like they're trying to work out a way to dispose of a body.

Kia Ora Earthlings, Sign the petition to withdraw the RSB. Today is the last day! 😊🙏 #nzpol #tetiriti ❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤 petitions.parliament.nz/212f27b2-98f...

Kia Ora Earthlings! A snippet from Barbados Today: PM Mottley goes into more detail about the aid #Barbados is providing to #Jamaica after hurricane Melissa. #CARICOM #geopol #aid

75min WINZ wait time on the phone. M’kay, try SuperGold Card help line, 85min wait. They want you to die in your pool of own piss with a telephone stuck to your ear don’t they. But CGT is evil & unworkable.

Kia Ora Earthlings, I hear a lot of things being said about #youth, especially in recent years those things have become more & more caustic. Lets just say… I have thoughts! #nzpol #aotearoa #education #ncea substack.com/home/post/p-...

Don't see the new Aotearoa NZ histories curriculum online yet. But Act are already crowing about having gutted it. community.scoop.co.nz/2025/10/new-...

Not that we should necessarily tax labour more, we should tax capital. Windfall tax on banks and gentailers. CGT and wealth tax. Target those that can afford it, and won't miss it.

@chrishipkins.bsky.social This is GOOD!!!! Keep up that long term vision! #nzpol 🙏🙏🙏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UQT...

Kia Ora Earthlings! @bernardchickey.bsky.social is always informative. He puts the numbers into context, especially regarding population & #economics. This is important, especially on the back drop of our government saying we "have no money". #nzpol #deficit #debt www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3ZE...

Kiwi Earthlings, this is 100% shitfukery indeed #nzpol #economy #shitfukery #luxon #cuts

Latest benefits data is out. More detail later, but suffice to say that we are going to need some new forecasts.

Forget everything you already know about America's most notorious dead person. Watch Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile today at 7 p.m. ET/6 p.m. CT. Only at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjhSoGcQhWU.

#nzpol Episode 25 of Locked Out with Craig Renney looks at the singularly most idiotic policy launched yet by the government. Visible from space levels of moronic. Have watch now 😄 youtu.be/8aTWMV6ULIc?...

Greetings Earthlings!!!! Professor Robert Patman discusses how Geo Political dynamics can be affected by the potential discovery of #aliens.... seriously he really does talk about that. #nzpol #geopol #space #spacerace www.youtube.com/watch?v=AR53...

Earthlings! @ganeshahirao.bsky.social & @bernardchickey.bsky.social cogently discusses topical economic issues. #nzpol #economics #unemployment #youth www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpXx...

Earthlings! your pallet cleanser for the day 🥰🥰🥰

Let's do a little exercise Kid 19 Thumbs a ride to Hawkes Bay from Auckland Gets a job at an orchard for the 12 week season Pay is negotiated rate, accommodation is $200 pw It's hard, hard work and they don't know if they can do it They get past that first hump, start enjoying being outdoors

Earthlings! 💵💵💵 Tim offers practical examples of how this mythical dimension, we call #economics works. It is very counter intuitive but the key is, the flow of money & where it is created & where it gets destroyed. #nzpol #banks littleteapot.substack.com/p/accounting...

Kia Ora Earthlings, check out MC drooping the mike!!!! #economics #nzpol #unemployment #capitalism

Meet Teddington. Teddington supports voting in local elections. Teddington also wants a more walkable Auckland. If you want Teddington to have nice walks in Auckland make sure you vote City Vision for local board and council! (You have until this Saturday October 11th noon to get your vote in)

Earthlings! Matua @ganeshahirao.bsky.social remains diplomatic & has his receipts to back up what he & his colleagues have been warning this government for over a year. He is fully justified in saying “I told you so” to our Government. #nzpol #economy #unemployment substack.com/home/post/p-...

Sam Neil praising Jacinda Ardern

Kia Ora Earthlings, Public health expert Dave (Bear) Hookway-Kopa speaks with @garypayinda.bsky.social about fetal alcohol syndrome, & the cost of #alcohol on the economy & communities. This is a thoughtful & moving Korero. #nzhealth #nzpol #aotearoa #toitutetiriti www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ql6a...

Absolute load of 💩! If the US really cared about human trafficking they would look inside their own country. But we all know it has nothing to do with human trafficking. #CARICOM #barbados #colonising barbadostoday.bb/2025/10/01/b...

You've got to be fucking kidding me. Privatisation doesn't work, especially when it's bloody Serco who couldn't run a prison when the previous Nat government even low-balled the minimum required standards and who have a terrible reputation in many parts of the world. Fuck Simeon. #nzpol

Hope someone in the coalition saw the numbers for today’s Pay Equity March - cause they need to realise what they did was not popular.

If you need proof many right wing commentators are full of shit look back to August 2024 Today's economic results reveal a near 1% drop in GDP in the latest quarter - that's a significant but not unexpected contraction #nzpol

Earthlings! @musicalchairs.bsky.social goes into ganster mode for this explainer about the dynamics between asset owners & working class.

Earthlings! This article is very counter intuitive to what most people believe about local Councillors. Most of us believe that they are just all “over paid bureaucrats”, hence why the pay cut agenda is so effective. #nzpol #local #council #education open.substack.com/pub/localaot...

Ray Chung is still polling 2nd for Mayor and likely to get elected to his Ward + Greens are being shouted down at debates. We’re fighting hard to win and need your help. If you can, give a little to my campaign to back a strong, principled voice at Council🌿#nzpol www.greens.org.nz/donatetory2025

Kia Ora Earthlings! As a young snowflake, I appreciate @bernardchickey.bsky.social work. I've learnt more about #Aotearoa s history from listening his podcasts & reading his news letters, than when I was at school. #nzpol #education #history #context #economics thekaka.substack.com/p/why-a-reco...

No shit Sherlock! 🤦‍♀️

Kia Ora Earthlings! Here is my public submission against the Electoral Amendment Bill, the one that stops people from registering to vote on or within 13 days of election day. #nzpol #civics #education #vote #democracy substack.com/home/post/p-...

The Auckland Anniversary floods and official response in 2023 were the low points of Mayor Wayne Brown’s term. Fresh claims have emerged about what was happening in his office that night.

Our love language is to pull the next govt to the left ❤️🤍🖤, unapologetic about it.

What Sir Geoffrey Palmer says in this Q+A interview is very counter intuitive to what so many people often say about our MP’s, politicians & the size of our Parliament. I personally feel the same way about local councils. #nzpol #education #democracy #civics www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryVH...

As a Proud South Aucklander, I am chuffed to see people utilizing this infrastructure. Good on ya Patrick, and safe Travels Mate 😎

i call bullshit NZ Herald, history is not on your side "Interislander ferry Aratere was retired recently to allow for work in Picton." #nzpol

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

#nzpol Big turn out tonight at the Living Wage Election Forum Event. The Living Wage right now puts an extra $172 a week into the pay packet of a full time worker. Dignity at work comes from decent pay for everyone - not from tax cuts.
