The NZ public health system paying for massive expansion of private hospitals. Coalition govt. Americanising our health system by stealth. We cannot afford another 3 years of this Coalition of Chaos. #nzpol #healthnz #nzpolitics www.nzherald.co.nz/property/auc...

Luxon/Willis National is so devoid of its own policies that it's stealing other parties' policies. First, it nicks the NZ First KiwiSaver policy, and now it announces a diluted version of the NZ Greens' rooftop solar subsidy policy. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic... #nzpol #SolarPower

National just stole KiwiSaver for babies at birth from NZ First. #nzpol #nzpolitics #kiwisaver www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

Amazing! National Party lobbyist, Mathew Hooton, appointed editor of The Post. #nzpol #NZpolitics #nznewsmedia www.thepost.co.nz/politics/361...

#nzpol #nzpolitics #NZNewsMedia How this is possible is beyond comprehension. One of New Zealand's media's worst right-wing racist broadcasters, HDP of NewsTalkZB, wins the broadcaster of the year award! Has New Zealand really descended to this?

Wow! An amazing straight talk and telling-off from Dr Brash. #nzpol #nzpolitics #defence #Hegseth www.brashandmitchell.com/post/don-bra...

If the National/ACT are so worried about the future of NZ Superannuation, why did they keep stopping contributions to the Cullen Super Fund and reducing the government subsidy to Kiwisaver? #nzpol #nzpolitics #NZSuper

Literally EVERYTHING we are fighting about & for could be solved by taxing the rich. EVERYTHING Fucking housing, fucking energy, fucking social inequality, fucking environment, fucking cost of living, fucking everything. STOP VOTING NEOLIBERAL SOCK PUPPETS FOR THE MEGA RICH End of transmission

A long overdue straight talk. I am beginning to wonder if Hipkins is deliberately leading Labour & the left group to defeat in November. #nzpol #nzpolitics #nzlabour www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL26...

Breaking: The Trump administration has forever banned the IRS from auditing the taxes of Trump, his family members, and his companies. www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

#nzpol A win/win for both Te Pati Maori and Labour/Green would surely be for voters on the Maori roll to give their electorate vote to Te Pati Maori and Party vote to Labour or Green. Creates an overhang and overall boosts the number of seats for the left group - a win for the Left!

Massive right-wing political hit job. Maybe Serman consider standing for parliament - would be a great payback! #nzpol #nzmedia www.rnz.co.nz/news/media-t...

What's extraordinary about this is how Q&A bent over backwards to try to accommodate NZ PM Luxon who has only appeared once on Q&A Jacinda Ardern appeared twice a year, John Key up to 3. Not a good look & doesn't illicit confidence - esp. when Luxon fronts Newstalk ZB weekly

Nicola Willis: “another silly debate about nothing”. Is Willis preparing to depose Luxon... #nzpol www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/former-pm...

"The controversy centres on claims first aired publicly this week by commentator Ani O’Brien..." I'm curious how Any O'Brien came to learn about this incident. Who orchestrated this year-old incident? #nzpol #nzpolitics #tvnz www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

Contrary to the Nats, TAX is not a dirty word. "The question is... What public services and what quality of public services do you want, and how do you pay for it? And then you can decide how much tax to pay, because that's the envelope, and who pays that tax." #nzpol tinyurl.com/5n6dtjvm

#India PM Modi reminding #NZ PM Luxon and National that the US$20b / NZ$34b deal is a "commitment" by New Zealand. But NZ Trade Minister McClay this morning told RNZ it was just about helping to promote and not about any hard dollars. Huge contradiction at play #nzpol

“Dr Claire Robinson told Midday Report the move risks alienating an important group of voters, and she would have advised against it.” “He's basically saying, 'I'm going to shut you out of my life, thank you very much'." #nzpol

"But what I say to you ... at the end of the day, We are so much in the poo ... its far better to stay away" #nzpol

Guessing this is a desperate hitjob on Maiki to detract from chicken Luxon.. #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

🚨BREAKING: The NZCTU has nominated Uber as one of 2026’s Corporate Underminers of Democracy. Wealthy multinationals should NEVER have a say in the laws that protect our people. (1/3) #nzpol

It's so weird, the right wing is still so scared of Dame Jacinda Ardern, some 4 years after she resigned! National is even planning its election campaign shadow-boxing with Ardern. Talk about a bunch of lunatics desperately trying to hold on to power. #nzpol #Ardern tinyurl.com/mpu9reyr

Just as I was beginning to like Brown a little, he comes up with this stupid trash. Obviously, people can't help showing their true colours no matter how much they try to mask them. #nzpol #nzpolitics www.rnz.co.nz/news/regions...

The Infrastructure Commission is saying NO The Ratings Agencies are saying NO Their Benefit Cost Ratios are all below 1.0* Time for Bishop to ditch 16 of the RoNS and tell NZTA to leave 1960 behind and join the 21st Century on actual proper transport especially as the oil shocks continue

What a long day, whew. Working from 6 to 6.30pm just so my taxes can pay for the Coalition Government to do fuck all since the catastrophic announcement of Luxon possibly losing his position as PM. And now the infighting This will probably drag onto November 🤦 #nzpol

"the rule of law, checks and balances and the peaceful transition of power..." www.scientificamerican.com/article/ex-n...

“Confidence is not competence Christopher” Luxon may have survived his own confidence vote but this is not the same as re-gaining the confidence of voters. He is a leader on notice who is yet to learn that when that notice is served is not up to him. #nzpol

Luxun on Peters: “They’re the guys that claim to be socially conservative and then put Jacinda Ardern into power,” Imagine National managing Christchurch massacre, White Island & the Pandemic! Another "Do nothing, do nothing, do nothing, O f..k! response? #nzpol tinyurl.com/3ybdruvp

#nzpol Luxon seeking a half-hearted vote of confidence from his own MPs is not leadership. It is weakness in a time of crisis. Here is what real leadership looks like: www.msn.com/en-us/money/...

Here is the silver lining: As long as Luxon remains Prime Minister, National will tank in public polls. Good news for the left group come November 7 election day. #nzpol #nzpolitics

We're sleepwalking to oblivion DON'T LOOK UP

People need to be reminded of this regularly, right up to election day. Selling Kiwibank, remember the Postbank gobbled by ANZ? Privatising TVNZ, let's not forget the history of TV3. Power companies? Well, see your latest power bill! Reject the CoC. #nzpol #assetsale newsroom.co.nz/2025/11/11/t...

"Economist Shamubeel Eaqub has taken a shot at New Zealand’s four-stage national fuel plan, saying that it’s along these lines: “do nothing, do nothing, do nothing, and then, oh f..k”. What an apt description. #nzpol www.thepost.co.nz/business/360...

Luxon & Seymour importing Trump election rigging to NZ & denying tens of thousands of voters their democratic rights by changing the registration time, despite Electoral Commission's advice that time taken to release final results won't change. And now they're restricting Māori seats rules. #nzpol

BOOM! South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less. THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis. #EnergyRevolution

Where are the 3000 EV chargers you promised, Mr Luxon or was that another lie? #nzpol #nzpolitics

#nzpol #newzealand Stupid voting is stupid.

Shane Jones, blaming the previous Labour government for a lack of a fuel plan [RNZ Midday Report] in the current crisis, just proves the incompetence of the current lot's "senior ministers" in crisis management. Bring back Jacinda Ardern! #nzpol #nzpolitics #petrol

Every country has its big lie moment. This was the right's - the economy. National inherited a AA+/AAA credit economy, one of the lowest OECD debt to GDP ratios, “better than expected” finances & positive growth expectations. Importantly Treasury always forecasted inflation drops & no recession.

A very interesting analysis of the New Zealand voter profile. Major political parties have lost sight of a large segment of potential voters who should be their base but feel ignored and excluded. #nzpol #nzpolitics #nzelection26 www.democracyproject.org.nz/p/democracy-...
