Luxon finds an out. #nzpol www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

Today 🇦🇺 passed hate speech laws that make it illegal to criticise Israel's genocide just 5 days from Australia celebrating it's genocide of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. #auspol

I have never seen a meme so literal

Look it's time to come clean. There never has been a Christopher Luxon. We made him out of a white balloon with some Sharpie on as a joke back in 2018. It got wildly out of control, and SIS told us we needed to keep it going because otherwise it'd collapse democracy. I'm so sorry.

I have been feeling a lot of anger lately due to our political climate. Dolly made this video today for her 80th birthday to benefit pediatric cancer. We can’t lose hope. youtu.be/McaD2PG8jOE

Foreign Minister Winston Peters pulls over NZ Reserve Bank governor Anna Breman after she signed a letter of support for US Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell. My Stuff #cartoon today #NZpol #USpol #JeromePowell

The Free Speech Union didn't exist when black ppl couldn't speak. The Free Speech Union didn't exist when LGBTQ ppl couldn't speak. The Free Speech Union didn't exist when disabled ppl couldn't speak. The Free Speech Union existed when racist white ppl were asked to keep their racism to themselves.

this is pathetic to a degree i didn't realize was possible

#nzpol Workers in this country are constantly on the job. It's time for a right to switch off law in New Zealand.

Anyone else really stoked to have Luxon in charge considering the impending invasion of a NATO country by another NATO member? #nzpol

all straightjacket, no fits

It’s Millie’s 105th birthday today, so I’ve just ordered her a pack of the good stuff. At her age, I figure it’s medicinal as well as recreational 😺🥦

#nzpol There’s one day left to fill out our annual Mood of the Workforce survey! We can’t afford to keep letting the wealthy and powerful lead the conversation. Help us put worker voices on the agenda this election year:

#NZPol #ManageMyHealth #GiveMeStrength

At last, an email from my medical centre about the data breach. Except it’s to inform me there is a group message which I can only read on… Manage My Health.

Shirts have been restocked, have at em: pepperraccoon.com 👀

On one hand I’m worried about the snacks cabinet and on the other hand I’m worried about WW3. I don’t even have hands

I'm on Bluesky! Apparently it is not always terrible here! But what the government is up to is terrible so I made a round up of all the upcoming bills you can submit on #nzpol #kikorangi www.emilywrites.co.nz/ok/

Even worse when you might wait another 11 hours to be seen in Wellington

AoNZ waiting for their Prime Minister to comment on current massive global events. I guess they dont have the internet or television or phones in Te Puke. #nzpol

Here’s a survey if you feel like participating… #nzpol #OneTermGovernment nzctu.typeform.com/Workforce2026

Live music is the cure for what ails ya. - Henry Rollins #Truth

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

It seems disingenuous for The Post to publish this without acknowledging that Luke Pierson is a founding member of Vision for Wellington, especially given that Stuff owner Sinead Boucher is also a member. www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

Think I might have pavlova for breakfast.

Meri Kirihimete to all! 🎄🧑🏼‍🎄

Luxon has a plan. It looks like this. 6 plates for him, 1 plate between 5 at the other end of the divide he’s widened. I don’t misunderstand him. I see him. #nzpol #hoarder interactives.stuff.co.nz/the-side-eye...

One more update: ironically, the Woolworths phone line appears to be down/exceptionally busy - probably because they have locked out the Customer Care Centre workers - so we recommend you email [email protected] if you'd like to provide any feedback in the meantime.

Sometimes the only power we have as customers is to withhold our pūtea, and email the company to tell them why. I just did that.

FELLAS is it UNDERMINING PUBLIC CONFIDENCE IN THE POLICE to be a DEPUTY COMMISSIONER searching for CHILD PORN, BESTIALITY AND OTHER HORRIBLE SHIT on your POLICE COMPUTER or is that only when a brown woman repeats concerns her constituents have about how the police treat minority communities.

If you keep discovering new music, you don’t die.

Things this coalition did that just wasted money and solved nothing: Landlord welfare Tobacco welfare Oil and gas exploration Cancelling ferries Fucking up school lunches Cancelling state house build & increasing homelessness Creating mass unemployment of govt workers Te Tiriti culture war bullshit

They have opened and they love it! #SecretSantaAoNZ

BREAKING: The High Court of New Zealand has granted PATHA’s application for interim relief, declaring that the Crown should not take any steps to enforce the incoming ban on new prescriptions of puberty blockers to transgender children and young people. More to come:

Waiting for my giftee to post… I guess they have a life… #SecretSantaAoNZ

And now to the reveal… a bag of delicious treats - I am especially grateful for the Whittaker’s Brandy Snap chocolate - I snapped one up when first launched but haven’t seen it since! Olives, nuts, more chocolate - I’ll just add blue cheese and a glass of wine and that’s dinner 😋 #SecretSantaAoNz

I got treats!! Thank you Santa 😍😍 I have to rush to work now but I will post a proper thank you with pics as soon as I get a chance this morning. But I love my treats!! #SecretSantaAoNZ

Perhaps Ms Willis should start to take personal responsibility - the same personal responsibility the Nats demand from welfare beneficiaries - and RESIGN. We just can't afford the Nats "prudent fiscal responsibility". (3/3)

I shouldn’t have to share this article as much as I do. Sending condolences to all friends and family and loved ones from the Brown Shooting today. www.newsweek.com/2025/07/18/f...

What do you call a Magician who’s just lost all their magic? Ian.

Minister Van Velden claims in her press release that "This new rate will benefit around 122,500 working New Zealanders". Currently those workers are losing money not benefitting. The government will pay more in benefits and welfare as well, so taxpayers lose too.

Alternative headline: Minimum wage workers receive effective pay cut for the second year in a row, thanks to Brooke van Velvin.

The designer of Times New Roman, Stanley Morrison, was a conscientious objector in 1916 and was imprisoned for his pacifist beliefs. These dipshits can't even vice signal without screwing it up.

I’d really like a government I can trust to just do government things without having to be aware of every single thing they’re trying to pass that will ultimately undermine democracy in some way shape or form. Amazing how fast it’s changed from being interested to bracing every time I read the news.

Alongside the word of the year we should have “the word that has lost the most of its meaning this year”. I nominate “ceasefire”.

The NZ Govt is reneging on climate commitments, which could have trade and legal risks for the country. Not to mention contributing to us all frying or drowning. My #cartoon today #NZpol #Climate
