Brynn Neilson recently unmasked as the cosplaying kaumātua behind the controversial @MatuaKahurangi Substack and X accounts, has suffered a humiliating defeat in his bid for a seat on the InternetNZ Board at tonight’s AGM, securing a mere 15 votes out of a possible 2,785. Game over, Brynn.

Kia Ora For those of you wondering where Paul Thistoll vanished to — fear not. He muttered “I may be some time” and wandered off in the direction of a long lunch. Last seen begging Sharon for some butter while waiting to use the toaster. No wonder he needs help👇🏼 givealittle.co.nz/cause/I-need...

📍 Couldn’t let this little gem escape everyone’s attention — Simeon Brown tries and fails epically to land a clever insult, and ends up having to do the walk of shame after Speaker Gerry Brownlee decides he’s had enough of his shit for one day and unceremoniously kicks him out of the House. #nzpol

📍In their final appearance before the COVID-19 Inquiry, Voices for Freedom founders repeatedly dodge basic questions about the legitimacy of NZ’s early pandemic response. Commissioner Illingworth stays focused — but VFF won’t give a straight answer. Watch here: x.com/kelvin_morga...

Destiny Church leader Brian Tamaki has denounced all other religions, rainbow community & media during his unhinged downtown Auckland rally today. This attempt to set fire to a symbol representing the mainstream media is a metaphor for his broader failure to rally support from the wider public.

⚡️Oh wow, a showdown of the gods is happening in downtown Auckland tomorrow. Sounds like Avengers: Endgame meets Destiny Church. Will there be thunderbolts? Will Brian Tamaki be summoning fire from the sky with a wave of his divine hand? Shall we all bring marshmallows—y’know, for the fire?⚡️

🔥 You may have already heard, Jacinda Ardern wrote a book. It’s a #1 bestseller in Aotearoa, #1 on Amazon AU, #3 in the UK, and is also a NYT bestseller. Here’s hubby Clark Gayford with an update on the books success and a special thank you to all her supporters.

One could almost be forgiven for thinking National’s latest slide in the polls is nothing more than mid-term turbulence. Instead, it’s a vote of no confidence in Luxon’s weak leadership, as voters continue to walk away from a tone-deaf coalition that’s long on promises and short on delivering them.

💸 And just like that, it takes less than three minutes for Chantelle Baker to validate last weeks High Court decision ordering her to cough up a $100,000 bond to keep her defamation case against Stuff alive.

⚠️ What the indoctrination of Destiny Church youth looks like in real time. This clip shows young members of it’s Radical Youth arm immersed in a highly controlled environment, one that discourages the outside world and embeds Brian Tamaki’s teachings, fostering blind loyalty to their ‘Apostle’.

“It helps to come armed,” he said…. #nzpol

☎️ Wait, there’s now a hotline for reporting road cones? Here’s Māori TikTok creator The Conchurversial Kuzzie putting PM Christopher Luxon’s declaration of war on traffic cones into perspective, using his trademark humour and bite to ask where the governments priorities really lie. #nzpol 🎯

Just two weeks after criticising Parliament as a “house of chaos” and warning that standards had begun slipping, Winston Peters proved his own point today - by directly attacking Te Pāti Māori co-leader Rawiri Waititi with this vile, racist outburst during this afternoon’s fiery debate in the House.

Newly appointed Deputy PM David Seymour fresh off the back of a 2.8 point slide in the latest Reid Research poll, hit another new low on RNZ’s 30 With Guyon Espiner today, with a desperate claim that 99.5% of the 23k submissions received opposing his Regulatory Standards Bill were created by bots.

“He said he should of kept his thoughts to himself, I’m comfortable with that” Y’all called it & here’s the receipt. PM Christopher Luxon on Breakfast this morn reducing Chris Bishops inappropriate “what a load of crap” comment at the AMA’s to nothing more than poor timing rather than bad judgment.

🔥 An extremely relaxed-looking and radiant Dame Jacinda Ardern, speaking to CBS Sunday Morning’s Robert Costa in Boston on the eve of the publication of her memoir “A Different Kind of Power” (out Tuesday, 3 June), answers the question on all her haters lips.

Here’s Stan Walker’s “load of crap” at the Aotearoa Music Awards - and the now very public reaction from embattled Leader of the House & Senior Cabinet Minister Chris Bishop, including his deeply embarrassing schooling from New Zealand music royalty, Don McGlashan #shutupyoudickhead

Immigration Minister Erica Stanford, recently under fire for breaching the Cabinet Manual by using her personal email for official govt business, is in trouble again over her emails —this time for tone-deaf comments she made earlier this month, prompting backlash from media & politicians in India.

Jamie Warren, daughter of Destiny Church head Brian Tamaki, giving a terribly unconvincing pitch yesterday as the church carries on with its programme of piling on the pressure for members attending their conference on Matariki weekend to give generously during its annual ‘First Fruits’ offering.

On TVNZ’s Q+A yesterday, Finance Minister Nicola Willis offered little more than a hollow defence of her government’s economic mismanagement in the face of a widely criticised Budget 2025, which has only deepened public distrust in her ability to deliver economic prosperity for all New Zealanders.

⚠️ It’s been a disastrous Budget Day 2025 for this clown show pretending to have us ‘Back on Track’, and frankly this probably best sums up the sentiment out there. #nzpol

🔥 Just dropped, the preview for Prime Minister, the much anticipated docu-movie on Dame Jacinda Ardern. With its unprecedented access, it promises a raw & deeply intimate portrait of her 6 tumultuous years as the greatest leader Aotearoa, NZ has ever had. *Releases 13 June in the USA; NZ date TBC

Well, that’s awkward. Trying to play the tough-guy populist by nodding along with useful idiot Mike Hosking about the ‘Māorification’ of New Zealand — “when we see it, we call it out” — then folding into a stammering mess when Te Pāti Māori’s Debbie Ngarewa-Packer calls him out in the House.

Lots of questions in people’s minds ahead of Tuesday’s debate in the House over the manifestly unjust & unprecedented suspensions of Te Pāti Māori MPs Rawiri Waititi, Debbie Ngarewa-Packer and Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke. Here’s Three News Lloyd Burr explaining how tmrw’s debate is likely to unfold.

“We will never be silenced in this house…haka is an elevation of our voice and the voices of our ancestors that have gone, our voices today, and the voices of our mokopuna that are to come” Māori have never been silent - they have only ever been silenced. Shame on this government. #ToitūTeTiriti

🤦🏻‍♂️ Behold the useful idiot brought in to gaslight women into staying quiet about his government’s sudden & abrupt torching of 33 pay equity claims and the shredding of promised backdated settlements, while simultaneously changing the eligibility criteria to make future claims near impossible.

While this footage of Brian Tamaki dates back to 26 January of this year, it’s significant in that it provides insight into how he goes about grooming & indoctrinating the children of Destiny Church-also known as Youth Nation-as part of his plan to give them a more prominent role in the church.

“Karma is a bitch, and she votes” Scenes & commentary captured by the NZ Herald, from the hundreds who marched on Workplace Relations Minister Brooke van Velden’s office in Auckland & the 200 odd who gathered outside Tama Potaka’s office in the Waikato today to protest changes to the Equal Pay Act.

It’s taken more than 500 days to get to this point but the court case of alleged Health NZ data thief Barry Young is finally getting underway tomorrow. Here’s Liz Gun’s 2023 video that kicked it all off feat Young & his Academy Award winning performance as ‘Winston Smith’ that went viral worldwide.

Imagine using a 13yo child to peddle disinformation about the RSE curriculum in schools. New Conservative leader Helen Houghton did exactly that in Aug 2023 which no doubt helped to contribute to their dismal 0.15% election result that year. Heres the disturbing video that she re-shared 2 weeks ago.

More than 3 years on from the parliament protest the High Court has found police breached the rights of 2 protesters when they were arrested during the aborted first attempt to end the occupation on 10 February 2022. Full details in Stuff article linked in comments section below.

🔥 And todays f-ck around & find out winner over on X is none other than the one-time reality TV star Gilda Kirkpatrick aka @Strange_G. Suspended after her years long abuse & harassment of other users finally caught up with her, the toxic red baiters appeal for reinstatement has since been rejected.

What I’d just say to you is: “I. Don’t. Give. a. F-ck” This just in, stunning & brave New Zealand Prime Minister says he doesn’t care about what anyone else says about his governments plan to remove voting rights from prisoners serving a less than three year sentence. #nzpol

🚨 Brian Tamaki has sunk to unprecedented lows with his words and actions before, but I never thought he would stoop so low as to stand before his congregation last night and joke about domestic violence—something he claims his Man Up and Legacy programmes are helping to eliminate in Aotearoa.

The face of a fully unhinged cooker drunk at 2am in the morning tearing us all a new one over the ‘globalists 2030 agenda’. Aka as Northland cooker Blair Graham who is down any number of rabbit holes & whose videos often achieve thousands of views. Who is watching this nonsense?

⚠️ Former AUT law lecturer turned conspiracy theorist Amy Benjamin with Counterspin Media pseudo journalist Hannah Spierer plunging down a deep dark QAnon rabbit hole with this utterly insane batshit-crazy nonsense about one of NZ’s most greatest & popular leaders of all time.

Thanks to those of you who reached out with their concerns about my Easter post featuring Chris Luxon as Humpty Dumpty. My apologies to any who were offended by its dark humour, I’ve removed the post accordingly. Here’s the PM in a better humorous light in place of it. Enjoy & Happy Easter all 🐣
