Giving thanks to be alive in these times, and to be part of the great transformation.
Looks like I'm gonna be mayor. 500 special votes to count and I'm expecting them to widen my lead.

MÄORI WARDS 40% of areas chose to keep MÄori wards. Some by a wide margin. A better result than I expected, given the demographics and embedded racism in our country. In areas that lost, I'd love to know whether the numbers have improved since any previous referendum. Aotearoa on the move.

I love Judaism. I love the teachings of the sages, the profound reasoning in Mishnah and Midrash. I love the wisdom of the ancient Rabbis like Hillel & Gamaliel, & the joyful worship of the Baal Shem Tov. I love the preeminence of ethics and humanitarianism within Judaism. Israel is not Judaism.

Researching this weekâs column, I felt that I understood at last just why, on so many issues â benefits, Gaza, environmental and planning laws, anti-protest laws, bank deregulation, fiscal rules etc - Labour is out-Torying the Tories. Why it has become so cruel, so destructive and so spineless. đ§”

I got a courtesy call from the WhakatÄne police today. A woman rang them from Tel Aviv to complain about my social media posts. Apparently opposing genocide is a hate crime in her eyes. They assured me that she has been told that no crime was committed.

A reminder that people posting about excess deaths in NZ from the covid vaccine are wrong. Most have been misled into repeating lies. A small number are deliberately creating those lies. The vaccine saved more people than it harmed. The long list of "mortalities" that is being circulated is made up.
