NZ @greens.org.nz Co-leader, Chlöe Swarbrick 19 April 2026

Just observing that parties who consistently say they back vulnerable communities now have an opportunity to actually back that up in practice by loudly committing to policy to support those impacted by Long Covid, if elected - this is what aligning to the values you say you have actually means 💡🤔

I'm going to several of these events, and I can't wait to enjoy creativity and community with fellow covid-conscious folks. I hear it's going to be great!!!

We maxed out our available Zoom seats for the FREE Inspire Performing Arts Festival by & for the Airborne Aware, April 15-19… 😭😭😭 So there was only one thing to do… Upgrade the Zoom plan to accommodate more folks!!! 👏👏👏 We’ve got room for you… come join us! tinyurl.com/InspireFest2026

Vile, spineless, complicit. Our whole government.

One of the reasons I covered the Olympic policy from this angle is that a lot of media is failing to cover the IOC policy for what it is. When you say athletes have to undergo mandatory testing, it's important to highlight that only women have to do it ... xtramagazine.com/culture/olym...

Oh did you want 3300 words from me on today's IOC sex testing rules? An essay on the nature of evidence and why we can't seem to stop getting stuck in the same traps around sex and gender in sports? Wow lucky you!! www.coyotemedia.org/the-olympics...

Well, this does nothing for folks without kids or are on a benefit. Also importantly it does nothing about supply of fuel. Nor does it reduce demand on fuel. If anything, it makes demand worse. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

Hey, Covid-conscious followers! I'm part of the group that's putting on this festival next month and I'll also be hosting the open mic on April 17th (see thread below)! We've got some very cool artists and performances lined up, and are locking in even more. Save the date! 😷🎭 #covidconscious #maskup

I knew it would be bad but this is draconian - note it is for anyone 14 years and over and it will be a $2k fine for people with no money so instead they will go to prison. It thus becomes move on to prison. This is not a solution to homelessness. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/governmen...

Criminalising homelessness isn't the answer - it's a cruel distraction from real solutions. The government's announcement to expand "move-on" orders across Aotearoa is deeply concerning. The following skeets on why this approach sucks. #Homelessness #HousingCrisis #AotearoaNZ #Whakahangahanga

As a member of the rainbow community I don’t think it’s okay that Labour still hasn’t put out an official press release supporting the trans community - regardless of whether they end up in a coalition with NZ First, I’ll remember that they didn’t use their platform - despite their stated values.

Just signed, and you should, too -- everyone can: our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/a-...

A grim anniversary today - six years since the first identified Covid case. In Aotearoa, we were lucky to have leadership that listened to the science in the early phases of the pandemic, saving thousands of lives. However, subsequently we have not applied the science that

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features." There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Puberty blockers are safe and proven - the THIRD PARAGRAPH acknowledges that children WILL still be prescribed them, just not if they're trans This is an attack on trans children, full stop This government does not care about children, full stop

Okay now nz labour stop looking at uk labour and look at Mamdani instead of

Everyone's talking again about MS craping your files and email to train its AI. Installed versions too, not just Office cloud. The rights they take are nested under "connected experiences" and you can turn that off in the privacy settings (if you trust that). eiw365.com/stop-word-fr...

Oh, people aren't getting the boosters that aren't mentioned or promoted anywhere? Weird.

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!

When disabled people tell you that this is very bad, in an ongoing disabling pandemic, please listen.

It bamboozles my brain when unmasked people panic and move away from me with wild terrified eyes because I’m masked. Like somebody with a gun backing away from a person in a bullet-proof vest, like “Whoa hey, you expecting some violence?” I don’t know, man, you tell me. You’ve got the fucking gun.

The way this game had literally everything

i know what ella masar said, but let her keep that job a little while longer. please.

As of today there is no rail link between the North and South Island of New Zealand for the first time in 26 years. The replacement is an as yet uncontracted, unbuilt ferry that's supposed to arrive in 2029. The rail ferry that was being built, cancelled in December 2023, was due in February 2026.

Submission on the Healthy Futures (Pae Ora) Amendment Bill done. Submit here by 1pm Monday 18 August - the deadline is coming up fast on this abysmal Bill. 🚨👇 www.parliament.nz/en/pb/sc/mak...

This is unforgiveable incompetence: NZ has spent $671m to get no ferries, rather than $551m to get new ferries that would be arriving within months to replace clapped-out ferries. This sort of mismanagement should bring down a government; amazingly, it's not even the worst example of their failings

Okay team, time to mobilise. 🚨 Submissions for the Healthy Futures (Pae Ora) Amendment Bill close 1pm Monday 18 August. 🚨 Here’s why it’s bad and how to submit 🧵👇 (H/T @pph-nz.bsky.social 🙏)

DuckDuckGo has added a feature to filter out AI images from search results.

But I'll still try every time 🥲

The guidance for trans participation that they have removed from the Sport New Zealand website is just three years old and was the result of a lengthy cross-code consultation. This move makes sport more unfair and more unsafe. Every person involved in this is a hateful mess. Wish them the worst.

Finally ditching Spotify for Apple Music and I'm gonna be listening to Joanna Newsom so hard

Well that was very Chicago stars of them.

This is the best thing to happen to the Chicago stars this season.

NATALIA KUIKKAAAAAAAA!!!!

It’s not too late to get emotionally attached to a WEURO team! Let’s make you a match.

Save us interim head coach Ella Masar!!!

There are still a few hours left to make your submission against the Regulatory Standards Bill. I just made mine! e-tangata.co.nz/uncategorise...

This shows and shares Alex's own voice, and does so with much more sensitivity than the appalling RNZ story did. Thank you David, and Angel.

Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you are only wearing a mask at protests, please consider also wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.

Ludmila scores her second goal in under three minutes 🤯

A spectacular solo goal from Ludmila 🤩 Peep the footwork on this too!

Also, love to see the Stars back in their red socks with those blue kits 🤌 The blue on blue lately just hasn't been the same.

Oh my god LUDMIIIILAAAAA! #chicagostars

AoNZ peeps Please take a couple of minutes to oppose/reject the Regulatory Standards Bill. The RSB is not good for the environment, public health, pandemic preparedness or pandemic response. 🧵

Hell hath no fury like a wāhine underpaid They’ve gutted the Equal Pay Act. Dismissed 33 live claims All to balance the books on the backs of women. One rule for the books, another for their mates If men were underpaid for years, we wouldn’t call it saving. We’d call it theft #NZPol #WarOnWāhine

MASK UP and shut up about the rise in anti vaxxers if you're not masking. Read this entire article and take a hard look in the mirror bc a lot of you have fully embraced eugenics without realizing it
