Gaging interest for the next project. Does anyone here have an issue with the way VoteCompass and similar apps run? I’ve heard in the past the questions aren’t specific to New Zealand, but is there anything you’d like to see from an alternative VoteAlignment tool?

Cutting dialysis just to save a couple of dollars is truly toxic behaviour. But let's ask ourselves the question: where did the money that used to be available to keep people alive actually go? A short thread.

The
#NZPT
urgency tool that allows you to track
#nzpol
has finally been fixed (I think). The homepage will have more tweaks in coming days to better align the infoboxes. Current Numbers: 156 Days Sat 19 Sittings Days Urgent 179 Total Bills 104 Urgent 58.1% of Bills under urgency.

Yet again, in almost any other NZ government a minister telling NZers to *eat less food* to save money would have them hounded by media and pushed out of politics. Never forget the immensely important protective role that NZ media have played in protecting these fascists from public outrage.

The PCO have quietly started demoing a new version of the Legislation website, now available at
demo.legislation.govt.nz
As someone who scrapes different govt sites a lot, I welcome this change to better handling of the legislation, including the fact that bills are now in PlainText !

Today is the first day I was able to test if

statistics. As far as I can tell, all is working with the urgency tracker. In the coming weeks, an election 2026 web app will launch with vote compass, party breakdowns etc. Urgency Stats:

ANYWAY Parliament sits again next week after their 39 day summer break. NZPT will be monitoring the urgency as usual and will begin to update daily again (pending today’s parliament website changed).

Small NZPT update for you all: Hoping to have a fix out by Friday that will make scraping more consistent. The parliament website has become very anti-bot and obviously NZPT is just a bot that reads the daily progress in the house. All should be fixed by the time the house resumes!

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

I am sure it is a coincidence, however a recent change to the Parliament website has blocked the calls that tools like NZPT use to get the information from the website. Currently this means urgency will be weekly-updates as a result.

actually insane that in five years we have gone from “everyone hates pedophiles and rapists regardless of political affiliation, race, gender, etc.” to it being a “left-wing dog-whistle”.

The much requested Urgency Comparisons for the last 7 New Zealand Parliaments is now available on
nzpt.cjs.nz
. Last major change for this
#nzpol
tool until the New Political Year (Jan 27th). Going to add other tools to the site at some point, so still open to any suggestions!

Update for those interested: The number I used was incorrect and the actual total bills for current parliament is 177, meaning percentage of bills is 58.76% 😬

Finally found a way to accurately count the amount of Bills the current parliament has considered (as opposed to using other sources and estimating). My estimates were too high, so update to NZPT soon with actual counts!

Yesterday I posted about my new web tracker of how often the parliament has gone into Urgency this term.
#nzpol
seemed to appreciate it and this evening I added a way to see the percentage of bills passed under urgency by each parliament. The results are interesting! See for yourself:

A lot of kiwis have felt uncomfortable about where our democracy is headed, despite the claims of the Govt that they are about evidence based policies and better quality regulation.
@cjs.nz
takes it further and provides evidence that we are loosing our democratic rights. It's nice work

You can also see the 104 bills that were put under urgency in one place now (
nzpt.cjs.nz/bills
). All these bills had at least one stage put through under urgency. Is 104 urgent bills excessive?

I’m not certain if there’s a big
#nzpol
community on here, but if there is: Last night I finally launched my web tool to track when this Parliament has gone into urgency, and which bills were affected by it. Takeaways: Urgency sessions: 19 Bills: 104 See the stats:
