If this results in a prosecution, we need to loudly voice our displeasure, demonstrate the unity of our resistance, and demand that the police drop the charges before any court time (and money) is wasted.✊ #DitchThePricksIn26 #OneTermGovernmnet #nzpol

National has funnelled $2.4 billion of a total $3b increase to the private sector through its term - that's 80% of all its increased healthcare funding allocation. I've written at length on this topic and again today Privatisation kills - no more greater than in healthcare - reason NSW banned it

It’s gonna be tight as a tiger and if you wanna get rid of this fuckin’ mob of cunts you better be voting Greens or Labour, no fucking about! #NZPol

If we don’t wanna devolve into a temu version French Revolution, we should possibly consider voting for political parties in AotearoaNZ who actually value the wellbeing, safety & protection of the populous, over the wealth luxury & protection of the few. 🤷‍♀️ Just a thought 💭 #nzpol #NZ #ForAllOfUs

$8.49 BILLION in sales. BILLION. Not Million. We are being fleeced. In excess of a million $ in profit on TOP of normal profit daily. Let’s do something. #VoteGreen #nzpol ✅✅ insideretail.co.nz/2026/08/26/w...

From the department of "be careful what you wish for": www.techdirt.com/2026/10/26/s...

What the actual. Chippy, how about spending more time thinking about your campaigning rather than others after you shoved Kerrin Leoni out the plane without a parachute 🤦 #nzpol www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361...

meanwhile Stuff has a full page animation PLUS a sidebar carrying National election ads We need to get money out of politics BADLY, because i dont care if "thats just how corporate media works", this shit shouldnt be allowed & NZs narrow msm ecosystem, alongside constant free coverage, is absurd

The man's a hero #nzpol "John, a few weeks off turning 82, said simply getting up to change a light bulb was a hazard these days and climbing a ladder as high as 8m scared him “shitless”. But he was adamant he would not involve anyone else."

Old farts talking like butt hurt babies gets on my fucking tits. Grow up

Australia says yes to Jacinda Ardern teaching at a university on leadership and empathy. Australia also tells Brain Tamaki to fuck off which his Nazi fundamentalist bullshit Got to love the Aussies www.nzherald.co.nz/world/jacind...

I had to sit on this one for a day but I still couldn't keep the goppingly awful building out of this breakdown youtu.be/hcAQYmQfhfA

It is worth watching the whole thing but I particularly loved the section on victims on crime from 12:05 when Marama gets really fired up. Truly a wahine toa 💚 #nzpol www.1news.co.nz/2026/10/27/w...

Privatisation by stealth Cut cut cut and back fill with private services

why are you even opening your mouth again, bro

Lowering living standards of the many, for the extreme wealth accumulation of the few. This is the plan, the only plan Luxon et al have. VOTE THEM OUT #nzpol #NZ #OneTermGovernment #Aotearoa #TaxTheRich #ForAllOfUs

Rage against the propaganda machine, VOTE GREEN ✅✅ #nzpol #OneTermGovernment #NZ #Aotearoa #ForAllOfUs www.greens.org.nz/greens_annou...

I hope Noel Leeming, JB Hi-Fi NZ, and Bunnings are making the decision to remove Starlink from their stores and online. Musk personally reduced the Ukraine Starlink speed which affected their defenses. People died and Musk is responsible for killing Ukrainians.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who spared a thought for my country today, who amplified information about the coup d’état attempt, and worried about Brazil’s democratic future—the world’s democratic future. We won! Women won! The Amazon won! Young people won! Democracy won! Hope won!

I've never been addicted to anything, but if I was, it would be Vegemite.

Greed

multiple people on here LITERALLY had a conversation about parties doing this once enrolment had closed & ACT drops a whole manifesto of egregious far right policy that may have motivated people to enroll the DAY AFTER enrolment closed. Antidemocratic bullshit & media are just reporting it verbatim

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

300,000 #Kiwis disenfranchised by National's “voter suppression” law 1 in 3 young adults aren’t enrolled, as #ChrisBishop admits the law is expected to help National secure 1-2 extra electorate seats, undermining Democracy #PartyVoteGreen✅ #nzpol open.substack.com/pub/mountain...

Shrink government to a size where it does very little and only the wealthy can afford to have a half decent standard of living. Understandably, neither party campaigns on the destination, only the journey.

Is this a sign? Please let it be a sign for our election #nzpol www.riotimesonline.com/lula-wins-ne...

This election is like root canal treatment. I just want it to be over.

Astonishingly, this is not a joke. The organisers of the league called in police to enforce a trespass order after complaints from other parents that the wee lad was dominating the play by being too good. It's hard to express the inadequacy of adults who would do this.

If you want to see how difficult the track surface at COTA is at the moment, just watch this weekend's F1 Academy. Cars skipping and jumping around while going in a straight line, constant steering input just to keep them heading in the right direction (also just watch F1A if you want fun racing)

This argument makes me so mad, so people don’t ever need to move house Mr Luxon? Everyone’s circumstance just stays the same? you giant ignoramus! #NZol

RNZ headline: Luxon predicts 'one or two points' will decide election as he votes in Auckland. So, about the amount Chris Bishop reckons National will gain by voter suppression then.

A cruel, unusual punishment: www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

Please can this happen. Please, please 🙏 💚 #nzpol

Well, that's a wrap.

Forgot to mention, even my formerly RW voting husband (until 2020 when he voted labour) voted Green/Labour today. He attended a #BHN debate/korero in Auckland with me & was really impressed with what Marama had to say. The greens are cutting through & hope is still alive! ✨💚🕊️ #nzpol #NZ #ForAllOfUs

"The Electoral Commission confirmed she remains on Labour’s party list" So if she is elected, that's one less list MP for Labour. If this happens, I expect it will go to court.

Remember, these are exactly the social conditions this coalition has worked hard to achieve for the last three years. The system isn’t ‘broken’, the system is working exactly as designed. Time to change the government #nzpol
