Foggy out this morning. #winter

Breaking out the emergency Paul Henry to distract from your former Party President! I dive more into how our media outlets seemingly continue to act as PR outlets over at my Substack: yeehawtheboys.substack.com/p/breaking-o...

How do they arrange the pillows? How? #greyhounds

And of course Stuff had (and yes I counted) six clips and stories on PH and only one on Tim Jago and it was 'below the fold' as it were ... why do the MSM allow themselves to be manipulated this way over and over again 😣😣

I see this has dropped off all the news websites already but plenty of the newest member of Act talking about things, and even one story about his wife’s business ffs. #nzpol

What a nasty ignorant soulless bitch he was. Bye freak. Graham is another huge reason why we are now a global pariah.

I saw frost this morning for the first time this winter. A cold but beautiful start to the day.

Today we pause to remember the more than 8,300 victims of the Srebrenica genocide and the families who still grieve. The European Union remains firmly committed to Bosnia and Herzegovina's European future as a sovereign, united, multiethnic and democratic country.

I see Ann Widdecombe has died. When she was Home Secretary I showed her round Drake Hall womens’s prison. There was a pregnant woman on a bed in the early stages of Labour and she asked the prison officers why she wasn’t handcuffed to the bed. That’s the kind of woman she was.

Narendra Modi just reminds me of that old saying that the only good fascist is a dead fascist.

All weekends should be 3 day weekends.

Ding Dong ! The witch is dead!

A cold but beautiful evening.

Personally not a fan of cruises- but this is not a good sign in any way.

I’ve just been looking over my old Live Journal account, and the Blogspot one, searching for a particular piece. I used to write a lot! I miss that.

I lay down on “her” couch, the big one, so she had to make do with the little one.

I am enjoying this so much. Beautifully written with such compassion and insight. #NZWriting #ElizabethKnox

OWG like this, saying things like this ✔️ #TaxTheRich #SustainableEnergy #NoDataCentres (from a paywalled article on NZH)

In the Duke’s chamber there being a Roman story in the hangings, and upon the standards written S.P.Q.R., Sir G. Carteret came to me to know the meaning; which ignorance is not to be borne in a Privy Counsellor, methinks, that a schoolboy should be whipt for not knowing.

Our entire public healthcare system (serving millions) NEEDS $1.4billion just to operate BELOW standard. Our minority (2-14%) of wealthy landlord class WANTED & RECEIVED $2.9 billion in tax evasion loopholes. Now look who this governments donors were & ask yourself, is that fair? 🤔💭 #nzpol #NZ

2 July 1939 | An Italian Jewish girl, Anna Anticoli, was born in Rome. She was deported to #Auschwitz from Rome on 18 October 1943 and murdered in a gas chamber after selection on 23 October 1943. --- ▶ A short video showing the ruins of gas chamber and crematorium III: https://bit.ly/4ql4LTV

David Shoebridge slams Home Affairs, Labor for still not answering his Feb 10 question on what criteria Border Force used to ‘question like criminals’ Australians returning from the flotilla to Gaza after they had already been “monstered by the Israeli govt” “Still no answer!”💥

Why is there a zebra sleeping in our bed?

Israel’s genocidal leadership is proudly saying that they want to ethnically cleanse, occupy, and illegally annex Lebanese land. All of this is going on with the US government’s support. Congress can put a stop to it by passing Rashida Tlaib’s Lebanon War Powers Resolution tomorrow.

Morning walk. A bit chilly but clear and beautiful.

PRIORITIES. 🙄

It’s a cold and very windy day- perfect pie weather. And Pie Fee is the best bakery in the city. #winter #pie

She thinks it’s her bed, but is kind enough to share it with us.

It’s impossible to know, but for things to get this far makes the situation seem serious. Human Rights Commission head to be investigated over conduct www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

The hypocrisy is breathtaking, but not surprising.

Just as Pauline Hanson began talking about how Australians don't have enough money, a banner mysteriously unfurled behind her. #auspol #npc #paulinehanson

Chatter around the lunch table at work yesterday and a colleague, Indian, been here about 25 years, raised her kids here, says “I don’t know who to vote for but I like Nz First”

I remember being taught that an MOU was worth less than the sheet of paper it’s written on. But that’s what Trump thinks is an international diplomatic instrument.

🌍 Alliance & Translation 🎧 “An Interpreter Calls” Comments to America 🎙️ One voice split 🤝 📸 Manners hold photos 🧾 🛢️ Iran exposes drift 🌊 🛰️ Europe hardens quietly 🧭 🕳️ March as one ends 🪓 🪫 Some notes online 🧿 👉🏼 👉🏼 👉🏼 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202... #AllianceNeedsSubtitles #MarchAsOneEnds

Translation: America lost the war with Iran and we are not getting anything, from this act of aggression.

Once upon a time Donald tRump started a war. He did not win the war. Now he’s making an “agreement” with Iran to end the war (translation=LOST the war) & he’s giving them everything on their wish list. We are much poorer, the people are hurting & hungry & he’s having Marie Antoinette parties. Grand.

Trump arrives in Tehran after signing the Iran deal. 🏳️

Russia: "Trump is my bitch." Israel: "No, Trump is my bitch." Iran: "No, Trump is my bitch." Algae in the reflecting pool: "No..."

So for context it would take 846 years of every kiwi enjoying a $20/ $10 public travel cost cap before the spend approached the cost of the *checks notes* 250 km of Roads of National Party significance. I for one will rest easy & travel happily at least until my 840th birthday #nzpol 65m v 55bn
