It’s only groundbreaking if you’ve been living in a hate-filled little fantasy rather than the real world

Nicola Willis warns Labour is ‘getting into bed’ with NZ First. National is in coalition with NZ First right now — still betwixt the sheets, writing Labour a review from inside the hotel room. The irony is lost on no one. #nzpol

Meanwhile the #climate change #flood waters grew higher. (Not to mention the erosion of rights for Māori, children, women, disabled, workers, and increasing pressure on the environment, public service, health, education, etc, etc, and so on) My Stuff #cartoon today #NZpol

Starter for ten: What’s that comms model for supporting cancer patients (or anyone in a personal crisis) that puts the patient at the centre of concentric circles that reflect the closeness of the relationship … 🧵1/3

Hey look the UK is doing that thing that NZ was doing but then the Minister responsible led the repeal of the legislation and enacted several pro tobacco policies based on a document that appeared on her desk www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Something fitting about a party which has spent this term trashing Wellington at every opportunity being consumed today with internecine dramas, indifferent the city's attempts to dig itself out from a disaster.

#kai two small bits of tuna, soba, brown button mushrooms, ‘super slaw’, spinach and black sesame, all seasoned with soy, Kaitaia Fire, black Sriracha, garlic and ginger. Whipped up in no time at all.

Well, Taine Randell can get in fucking sin bin. What a truly disappointing realisation to witness a former AllBlack Legend become a culture war loving bigot. 🤨 #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

#kai Dinner: a rather good salad made by adding olive oil, preserved lemon, rocket, green peas and avocado to the leftover HFW seedy black rice Served with air-fried chicken breast.

An utterly withering analysis.

Labour campaign chair Kieran McAnulty on his new opposite number Simeon Brown: “Doesn’t matter who the chair is when the PM is still a dud.”

#kai Hugh Fearnley-W’s black rice cooked with sunflower and pumpkin seeds, spiced cauliflower ’steak’ and chicken wings. And lots of coriander. Lots and lots.

"They were careless people, Tom and Daisy — they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that held them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made” I think a lot about this Great Gatsby quote recently

#kai Tonight we succumbed to the call of the Blue Nile Ethiopian restaurant in Newtown. My first Ethiopian dinner and I am an immediate fan. Tender, rich lamb and the fluffiest, spongiest, sourest injera. Will play again. 🇳🇿🥝

🧶🇳🇿March has been tiny scarf month: two Sophie-esque pieces, one in possum, the other in tweed, and a possumy, slightly lacey number.

#kai I don’t know if this is a late lunch, a huge afternoon tea or an early entrée, but yesterday I read about muffeletta sandwiches, have been thinking about them ever since, and today built an approximation from the ingredients in my fridge. Will play again

#kai instant cure for under-the-weatherness and general mankiness: a bowl of roasted vegetables, a nice lump of protein, some avocado and a punchy condiment or two. Tonight, it was red cabbage, purple kūmara, cauliflower, parsnip and fennel, with rocket, gurnard, preserved lemon and chilli crisp.

Sure seems like an urgent corporate tax to stop price-gouging, as suggested by the Greens, would come in handy right about now 🤔

The govt that killed the Clean Car Discount — subsidies are bad, actually — has just handed $52.7M in interest-free loans to ChargeNet (Genesis Energy) and Meridian to build EV chargers. Subsidies for consumers: nanny state. Subsidies for energy companies: infrastructure policy. #nzpol

#kai oh come on people, this is is silly.
