I don't understand why this isn't a bigger scandal. The govt has lied to us and covered up that they're gonna... What? Fuck up some Marlborough Sounds beaches for their dumb fuck lng project? Thank fuck for Māni and the Post. This is outrageous. www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3611...

Look, if all they had changed was just enrolling and voting on polling day that would have been one thing, but stopping enrolling TWO WEEKS before election day is outrageous and even previous Nats who stopped prisoners voting had not taken such an outrageous step We should be angry out loud! #NZPol

Cory Doctorow's @doctorow.pluralistic.net work in both fiction and non-fiction is absolutely superb and essential reading for anyone interested in policy issues for tech, privacy, and AI. He's an amazing talent - brilliant, witty, always spot on!

I wrote about Elon Musk's fake flying car and its mid-air collision with lazy "CEO said a thing!" pseudo-journalism:

why has the stuff debate got Luke Malpass sitting to the side in the cuck chair

That's wild. These western 'supposed' lands of free speech are so ready to maim themselves in the face of a genocide rather than take actual stands www.rnz.co.nz/life/books/s...

Centralism is a disease to our democratic society How the heck could Opportunity support the Neo Con NZF?

The difference between Greens and TOP is that there are very particular ideas for Greens but TOP HAVE NO LINE IN THE SAND. A vote for TOP is a right wing vote. #nzpol

Really enjoying this minor party election debate- it’s time the NZ broadcasters stopped doing the boring 2 party staged pieces We’ve had MMP for over 30 years It’s time broadcasting caught up Well done TNVZ (& great chairing Tova !)

Regarding that UN vote on international cooperation during future pandemics, Luxo says this wasn't important enough to require a cabinet decision. The Covid pandemic killed at least 7.1 million globally. That tells you how little our prime minister values New Zealanders' lives. #nzpol

whaddya know #nzpol www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/auckland/...

SCOOP: A majority of Cabinet wanted New Zealand to back a vote on a new UN pandemic treaty but Winston Peters made the call not to, @samsachdeva.bsky.social reports. NZ and Paraguay were only countries to abstain, US, Israel and Argentina voted against. newsroom.co.nz/2026/10/13/p...

The major thing that always strikes me about these kind of things (also see Luxon's recent comment about die trying to get people off welfare) is the question of why work? Namely, why is work the ultimate goal for these people? There's nothing virtuous about work. Merely being in employment does...

Almost 200,000 New Zealanders are now living with long COVID – where is the government plan? theconversation.com/almost-200-0...

The plan includes independent medical certification & reassessment of existing recipients. Its costing assumes mental health claimant numbers can return to their pre-pandemic levels of the working age population (Palmer, 2026). That assumption deserves scrutiny. huhana62.substack.com/p/disabled-p...

50% of that gain should have been taxed

#nzpol Atlas Network and RW party donors are rotting the system for tax-free hundreds of millions for their own pockets 😡😡😡 #taxwealthnotwork www.nzherald.co.nz/business/bes...

Constantly giving ground means you'll almost never get it back. Learn your history, people. #nzpol
