This is just like the idea that Lithium is rare, no, we just hadn’t bothered to look for it before cos there was little immediate use:

Shit keeps getting worse. NZ just shrugs its collective shoulders www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

There's people who you fundamentally dont agree with and then there are just genuinely repulsive human beings. HDPA is, imo the latter.

These clowns will ensure the Coalition gets back in. www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

David Seymour threatens to fire RNZ boss for hiring John Campbell. It's illegal for a Shareholding Minister to interfere in state broadcasters' independence Kiri Allan was hauled through the coals for a mere suggestion & Seymour said at the time democracy was at risk & media interference not OK

30 percent of Americans are against [squints at notes] the Pope urging peace

He and political colleagues are trying bully that trust. He’s accusing others of what *he* is doing. And so much more, but this ACT and a nasty way to campaign… 😔 2/2

Abolishing a media regulator in an environment of increasing mis- and dis-information seems like a bad idea for democracy.

Who cares. When you’re out of public life you can live where you want. Shes just one of tens of thousands every year who choose not to be here. www.nzherald.co.nz/world/washed...

Someone asked a bunch of kids what the first thing was that cane to mind when they thought about Trump. Their answers are priceless. Check out the video.

And just for a bit of Enhanced Geekery™ ... irrespective of what Bish's bean-counting review comes up with, the business case for CRL absolutely stacks up if we use a sensible approach to the discount rate for the project #nzpol

winston peters told reporters that new zealander everlee wihongi has been in ICE prison for nearly a month because she didn't declare something on a form. the thing is - there *is no form*. please RT: www.webworm.co/winstonpeters/

This reminds me of the “he’s not a monster” headlines in Oz

I think the lead up to election is going to be a desperate speed run of the most awful policies we’ve seen to date. Looks like the Nats think they’re going to lose and have decided FTW

The Govt is scrapping the BSA - just months after it decided it could regulate Sean Plunket. Plunket said that Luxon had told him the Govt "had his back" over the issue. www.thepost.co.nz/politics/360...

Axing the BSA is a Magna Carta for the mendacious and vicious.

Where did all the Russian tanks go? Any guesses?

So are we having a whip round to fund this $33 billion for India?

This stuff reminds me of many corporate climbers I’ve seen in my time. They move to a territory with the goal of getting a quick win dont worry about long term ramifications. Goal is to get that win get promoted to somewhere else. ppl left behind clean up the mess thespinoff.co.nz/politics/04-...

Reverse Midas strikes again

Is this the data centre Luxon was spruiking a few months ago and taking credit for? www.rnz.co.nz/news/busines...

New Zealand, a colony built upon being as tight as a fish's arse, where generations of colonisers have taken pride in DIY, bodged repairs, and being cheap as fuck, and spend their dotage complaining about people not spending money on their rentals, businesses etc etc

Putting more load on heavy trucks will cause more damage to our roads which means more maintenance required which is mostly paid for by *checks notes* fuel excise duty (not RUC). Every ‘solution’ to any problem ACT proposes just ends with us subsidising businesses www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...
