The real wealth story of Aotearoa and what we won’t see in any budget. Time to tax the rich. (Pt 1 intro)

Hope everyone is comfortable. Especially the ones without homes, and the ones being ‘moved on’ because they’re ‘not a good look,’ and the ones paying more thn 30% of their income in rent, or the ‘lotto winners’ in state homes.

National MPs, with their six figure salaries, who claim accommodation supplements that are more than some state housing occupants earn in a year, stripping away accomm support for state housing tenants is some next level hypocritical cruelty. www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360... #nzpol

#Karakia before question time with our MPs and staff. A quick kai to feed the troops. #nzpol

MP Tom Rutherford reading out letters from people scared of trans people as a threat to their children shows their ignorance. Cisgender (not trans) men who are pedophiles are a threat to children. Drug pushers are a threat to teenagers. Trans people aren't a threat. #NZpol videos.parliament.nz

We must action real clean energy solutions Aotearoa #nzpol

Shane is a misogynistic bully who throws his weight around when wāhine Māori stand against his extractive politics. I won't be bullied out of defending Ngāti Ruanui success. He’s normalised belittling wāhine because we are extremely informed unapologetic and prepared to challenge him! #nzpol

Matua Shane misogynistic anti-taiao rantings…just another typical Nzf class act 🤮🤦🏽‍♀️

Love that I trigger this 🤑🦖 matua and that we won against his own fast track seabed mining legislation #ban #seabedmining #nzpol

Anyone else? 🎁 Happy Mama’s Day to all mama carrying so many battles for a better world for our tamariki mokopuna. You’re absolute magic!

What's interesting is Maiki's statement confirms: 1. Lloyd Burr may have made the alleged racial slur to Maiki 2. Nicola Willis knew & despite it being closed a year ago, in the same week National complained about Maiki, its story was leaked by Suit & Tie & Ani O'Brien 1/2

Acting like a police state in regard to freedom of media.The Govt have shown media they will take out anyone in their way! A Min sat on it for a year raises it when the Govt in trouble. PM only fronts privately owned media. Loss of strong wāhine Māori reo speaker who was to ask the hard questions

"These are roles that have been chronically undervalued for decades. A year on, workers are no closer to justice...This isn't about one claim or one sector. It's about whether the law itself now creates a system that structurally disadvantages women." #nzpol

When kaumātua see you in Tokoroa and demand you go to their hui, you immediately change your plans & listen. Māori electorates are huge, voters diverse, but guarantee kaumātua rule everywhere…love it #nzpol

I can tell you now its the cost and lack of subsidies not red tape Never once in all the time I have talked to people about solar has red tape been an issue www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

My seat for the day 🤣 Let’s just get them out #nzpol

Spent the day in Tokoroa with rangatahi learning about parliament watching them debate. All agreed wanted free public transport for everyone but millionaires who cd do more to help. Their empathy respect care for struggling communities is something govt cd learn from Brilliant students #proud #nzpol

Coming from Taranaki watching oil companies come & go…it annoys the !!!k out of me that this govt uses a fuel crisis to justify their fossil reliance and not invest at scale in solar on rooftops & electrify Aotearoa #nzpol

Solar panels + batteries + electric transport gives us the freedom to take back control of our energy and transport systems from dependence on oil supply chains stretching around the world, and stabilise the climate in the process.

“Burn the Bill” tonight govt passed their dumb foreshore & seabed Maca bill continuing to show how anti-Māori they truly are. #oneterm #nzpol

#solidarity ✊🏽

When Māori and women MPs are punished while Govt privilege is protected, that’s not neutrality its bias. A Speaker’s duty is to uphold fairness, not shield the Govt. If they can’t rise above partisanship, the real disorder is not on the Opposition benches, but in the Chair itself. #nzpol

Govt fails women ✊🏽 Wāhine workers should never have to drag the Govt to court for fairness. We stand with the unions, this elite Govt has failed wahine, failed unions, failed Aotearoa. #oneterm #PayEquityNow #StandWithWāhine

Yuck, his words of support would not help any candidate in a Māori seat. But Nats are soooooo scared of us, I love it! #oneterm

Chris Hipkins can deny it but the record is clear Māori were left behind in the COVID response. The Waitangi Tribunal researchers & our lived reality show the same thing inequitable vaccine rollout poor engagement & avoidable harm that’s why Māori led our own response www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

I thgt we all wanted #oneterm govt!?

A Minister has a duty to be accountable not to twist equity into a racial grievance.Seymour’s refusal to reply is a calculated deflection. Māori are a Te Tiriti partner, equity isn’t about favouritism it’s about fairness, pretending not to see race doesn’t make him neutral it makes him dangerous

They mocked my whakapapa lied I spray-tan to “look Māori.” Winston and Plunket amplified it. Using our bodies to shame and condition us is the colonial playbook. We must call out colonial sexualised violence, our tāne esp so. When wāhine Māori are targeted, all of te iwi Māori is under attack.#NZpol

Welcoming Oriini Kaipara is powerful but how do we protect our wāhine when colonial sexual violence thrives in media & politics? What’s happening to Tory Whanau is in a system built to shame, silence & degrade wāhine Māori who lead. Ray Cheung’s threats aren’t politics, they’re violence! #matriachy

All the hui, zooms, mobilising, social media, marae, rangatahi, kaumātua, kapa haka, kura, mahi, hapū, whānau, settled, non settled, never settled iwi, urban, rural, tangata tiriti course we’ll repeal bru didn’t do all this mahi for nothing! It’ll be gone by lunch time #toitutetiriti #nzpol

Agree 💯

The US attacks Iran without cause & Winston Peters is silent,hes quick to condemn Chinese ships in intl waters & Cook Is but won’t defend Iran. Iran, China and Cook Is are sovereign nations. Israel hoards nuclear weapons & commits genocide but the world polices everyone else. Colonial hypocrisy 🙄

NZ punishing the Cook Islands for exercising sovereignty shows exactly how colonial control still works in the Pacific. Free association isn’t freedom if it comes with threats. #PacificSolidarity #WhakapapaNotWarfare #DecoloniseAid

Remember this Winston in 2018 anti-austerity what a soul seller www.beehive.govt.nz/speech/capit...

Sick leave is a right, not a reward. Cutting it punishes low-paid workers, single parents, and especially Māori and Pacific women. Pro-rating fuels inequality, risks outbreaks, and betrays the workers who carried us through COVID. @whaeadeb.bsky.social #NZPol #Unions #OneTermGovt

Let’s be clear Israel’s attack on Iran isn’t preemptive. It’s a preventive war, illegal, immoral, and timed for advantage, not defence. The world should be alarmed!

Genocide is genocide. Sanctioning two Israeli ministers is a performance, not justice. Real action would cut diplomatic ties, uphold international law, recognise the State of Palestine, sanction Israeli companies, military officials & weapons suppliers. Govt doing everything it can to do nothing!

Govts Seabed Mining in Fast Track is Muldoons Think Big in a Wetsuit and our community know it! Every activation is bigger and louder, standing in unity with one strong message #noseabedmining

Ever notice the trolls who oppose Te Tiriti, Māori, takatapui rights, women equity & taiao protection are the same trolls who support Israel genocide & Coc #freepalestine #nzpol #oneterm

#PRESSRELEASE TPM Demands Safe Passage Of Madleen To Gaza “This is the Mavi Marmara all over again - but the world has no excuse for silence now. We stand with the people of Gaza. We stand with the Madleen”.

While we fought the racists right-wing govt we heard a centrist tone matching this play in the house yday, thank goodness for Te Pāti Kakariki who showed our aligned values. What worked in 2017 def won’t work in 2026 🙄#oneterm #nzpol www.interest.co.nz/public-polic...

The nephew Stan Walker sings his heart out for the people. Chris Bishop calls it ‘crap.’ Must be hard hearing Māori voices when you’re used to silencing them. Waste of tickets shdve given them to us! #ProudAuntyEnergy #StanWalker #ColoniserCrying #TruthHurtsBishop #TinoRangatiratanga #nzpol

Racist trash high on one -term energy

TTR promises $1.5B over 20 years & 77 non-local jobs.They have no mining experience no funds no smelter & no fleet.The tech, jobs & profits go offshore while the damage & mess stay. Unproven extractor relying on political favour to raise capital. When govt falls in 2026 we’ll repeal #noseabedmining

Yes @chrishipkins.bsky.social I spoke & 50% TPM were doing a song and dance with the unions, with our wahine, with aunties, with our mokopuna for equal pay, for mana wāhine, for justice. Chill, come have a kanikani our ppl need unity rn💋😘😚 #MāoriWomenRise #TePātiMāori #EqualPayNow #UnionStrong
