It's interesting to see Australia go meet with countries in the middle east while we just keep asking when daddy America will stop it

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...

This is the missing piece in the solar story. Home batteries that are grid connected and allow for load distribution and mitigation at peak times are obliterating power costs in Australia. NZ govt …🥱… 🦗🦗🦗🦗 😡😡😡 #nzpol

And it works! Objectively, here in AoNZ, we’ve spent 40 years slowly impoverishing the vast majority of our people to massively enrich a small group. The purpose of a system is what it does: and neoliberalism concentrates wealth - nothing more, nothing less

Surveys of ‘business confidence’ don’t measure the economy—just “how the business community FEELS about the economy.” And the data shows that business confidence is “systematically higher under National-led governments, irrespective of the actual economic conditions.” newsroom.co.nz/2026/04/15/b...

FUCKING LEAVE SUBSTACK NO SHIT THEY SUPPORT NAZIS IF YOU BIG PUBS LEFT SUBSTACK THEY WOULD HAVE LESS $$ FFS a lot of us already made the leap because we believe that fighting fascism is more important than doing the easy thing and complaining about it hey support NAZI-FREE liberatory writing:

Interesting - if there’s an easy way to remove the deleted accounts that would be great

Ok I have to test this too @realfollowers.bsky.social

"Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan said disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz were still affecting supplies and that even if the passage normalises, it could take around 20 days for Middle ​Eastern cargoes to reach South Korea." #nzpol good read. Our government continues to gaslight us

The privatise & pillage priority of this government is ticking along nicely. This time it’s an Australian private equity firm that seeks to benefit from the blood sweat & tears of kiwi healthcare workers. How marvellous for the Aussies & the shareholders. How unfortunate for kiwi citizens #nzpol #NZ

'The judges concluded that given the trainer’s age he “should not have his future life so profoundly adversely affected,” and discharged him without conviction on all three indecent assault charges.' But it's fine that the young woman's life and career prospects in the same industry are extinguished

Oh, thank dog the government has denied this crisis exists. Nothing to see here, don’t believe your lying eyes team. Keep cruel & carry on! 🙄 #nzpol #OneTermGovernment #NZ

Happy future glimpse of articles written about AI.

David Seymour says government should abdicate responsibility for people/communities that need to relocate because of climate change. #nzpol ACT priorities: Lower wages, dismantle the public service, assist landlords, the uber wealthy & corps. Vote ACT so your taxes aren’t spent on you.

I appear to have acquired a guest #NotOurCat

On a croisé un modèle en liberté. maintenant je ne peux m'empecher d'imaginer des scènes d'action et des interventions policières où les gens en infractions seraient juste mort de rire quand les flics descendent du véhicule.

Plenty of time for reading down at the bolt hole

A Starship specialist literally detailed alllll the ways this benefit was needed for the parent, and some WINZ case worker with ZERO medical training just went, ahh nope. Horrific. Ppl shouldn't need to go to the media to get the support they're entitled to. #nzpol

Golriz Ghahraman was denied a discharge without conviction for shoplifting, but this horse trainer gets one. Double standards much? www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

Guys, you won't believe this, but the Trump family's Crypto scheme locked investors out and just transferred their money directly into Trump's pocket. Anyone with a brain cell saw it. If you invest with Trump, you deserve to be placed in a conservatorship. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-family...

This person is the PM's new communications adviser. Rachel Smalley, cruel and nasty, seems a good match for Luxon.

Weird, I thought private companies were always more efficient and cost effective at service delivery? Auckland school run chaos leaves 'hundreds late' to class www.rnz.co.nz/news/ldr/592...

This is really important, #NZPol we need to start thinking about how we work together and rally numbers to push these corrupt unfit, idiots in Govt out and elect more aspirational leadership that will work together for the good of our country.

Voters in a small Missouri town, unhappy with the city council’s approval of a $6B data center, ousted all four incumbent council members running for reelection

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?? #nzpol Remember how all our media talked up how great Luxo was internationally. Ahaha. Ahahahahahaha no

Hey guys is it bad if the lightning is counting down

Nope

Were Were those the only two options

If you order from overseas, you will be now be charged a new government tax on shipments valued at $1,000 NZD or less. For imports, the levy will be $2.21 NZD per shipment, plus GST. For exports, $2.48 NZD per shipment, plus GST. Always new taxes, always under stealth. #NZPOL 1/2

fuck it, I'll link it again bsky.app/profile/name...

Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.

It’s called sexual assault and another man walks because a judge thinks men’s careers are worth more than our safety. “A harness racing trainer who “repeatedly mauled” a teenage stable hand has successfully appealed his convictions after a court found the price of losing his career was too high.”

Tourist operator on RNZ this morning says that reliable ferries needs government intervention. In case he missed it: we don't have any reliable ferries *because of* government intervention. #nzpol […]

Pre 1990 AotearoaNZ union membership was roughly 40%. Post 1990 Union membership continued to decline before stabilising at around 18% today. Join your unions, restore our economy. An economy that works for all New Zealanders, not just the few. #nzpol #OneTermGovernment #NZCTU

There are currently 453 second-hand, hybrid, Toyota Corolla cars for sale via Trade Me, yet Nicola Willis hasn't bought any to replace the utterly munted Cook Strait ferries.

France first did this in the first oil crisis in the 70s by going Nuclear Power Now in 2026 it is finishing to job by going EV, heat pumps, and industry All able to use French Reactors, French Wind, and French Solar

my cousin's debut cook book More Than Toast is smashing it. it's sumptuous and succinct and great for people without much confidence in the kitchen yet and for those who just love great food done well. so proud of cuzzie Rhiannon Baldock (@inrhispantry on IG) morethantoast.co.nz?utm_source=i...

Fun little nugget here, for three months in 2026 there's only going to be ONE interislander ferry running. This time last year there were 3. Amazing. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

So once again a man started a wildly successful harassment campaign against a female celebrity who didn’t actually do anything and the internet swallowed it full throated, and the whole thing is revealed to be concocted horseshit he can’t muster anything more than “sorry that happened I guess”
