Perfect front page from The Press today. Luxon laughing, main headline 'Pay Equity Bids Thwarted' and then an ad telling us to Party Vote Green 💚

Comment: Why is there election campaign advertising without the disclosure that parties and candidates are required to make about their sources of funding? - Newsroom Pro - $ -

We. Were. Warned.

If you weren't angry enough about the underfunding of the health system, this will increase the rage levels. open.spotify.com/episode/7fqO... #nzpol

Don’t let ANYONE tell you you can’t vote! Cast a special vote NO MATTER WHAT. It will then be counted as a disallowed vote and we will be able to see how much this evil government cheated. #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

I’ll just leave this here… #nzpol #NZ #Aotearoa #ForAllOfUs

What most people don't know: when you fill up a petrol car most of the energy never moves it. Petrol car: 13–21% of the crude oil's energy reaches wheels. Electric car on today's UK grid: 43–45%. Electric car on wind+solar: 77–80%. That's why we don't need to replace fossil energy one for one.

Charter schools ❌4 x the cost per student ❌1 in 4 teachers not registered ❌No transparency ❌Not democratic ❌No requirement for curriculum ❌No better for students Why would we want 10,000 of them? #nzpol

Me right, now, as I’ve removed myself from my computer and I’m sitting in the bush listening to the Tui, Pīpīwharauroa (Shining Cuckoo) Blackbirds and other things I have yet to identify. 🥰

Has everyone but me forgotten that Luxon initially ruled out NZ First in 2023 before flip flopping when it became obvious to even him he would need them to form a government? #NZPol

#Hugops for all fighting the PHP vulns

We're in a society now where leaders can lie like Trump and the journos all stand around watching nonchalantly #newzealand

If you want to vote for a party who can influence Labour more the left then voting Green is 💯 Any other thinking is delulu #FoxyKnows #NZPol

Let's break this nonsense down. The $300bn of debt 'anchoring down NZ' is the little red stub in image 2. Cute. See the blue above it? Yes, NZ Govt has more financial assets than debt. NZ has $4.9 trillion of debts, and $4.7 trillion of financial assets 🤷‍♂️ Don't hear about those, ae? [🧵 1/n]

Progress on LNG ahead of election is 'scurrilous' - opponent

If you are looking for a cheap EV to make the move, Turners has dozens and dozens of Hyundai Kona's coming on the yard at the moment as a bunch of big fleets come off their 2022 rebate lease splurge. They are all white, ex NZTA, DHB, councils etc. Well-maintained etc

Like I said last night, The Opportunity Party are wolves in sheep’s clothing. This is a great read. #nzpol

Wolf in sheep’s clothing #nzpol

“People don’t understand what kind of data they’re handing over,” EFF’s @evacide.bsky.social told @theverge.com, because Muse’s user interface is designed to encourage you to overshare. "It’s using dark patterns, and as a result you end up with Muse doing things that people don’t want.”

Got to continue the fossil fuels grift, it stops for nobody and no reason #nzpol

#NZpol Government selects LNG provider, starts working with them – I thought this was effectively suspended until after the election, instead it seems they’re charging ahead just with the technicality of not "yet" formally signing a contract while election is on. That now feels duplicitous.

Call them liars, mendacious, disingenuous… they’re all one in the same. Vote this current coalition government out. #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Labour has NEVER balanced its budget & they ALWAYS overspend. -Nicola Willis Spoiler alert 🚨 Nicola is a pathological LIAR & the inconvenient FACTS prove it. #nzpol #OneTermGovernment #NZ Why am I researching this stuff myself, instead of msm doing their jobs and pushing back on these LIES?

Ah missed this, looks like Ukraine is going after Russian data centres now too, good call! www.tomshardware.com/tech-industr...

Yeah nah, we’re smarter than this AotearoaNZ, you know what to do, vote accordingly. #nzpol #TaxTheRich #TaxWealthMore #TaxWorkLess #ForAllOfUs #NZ #OneTermGovernment ✅✅🕊️

Game over. We can give up on substantial tax reform for at least another three years then. #nzpol thekaka.substack.com/p/opportunit...

My cousin organized a series of masked concerts in NYC so immunocompromised and other covid-conscious folks can still enjoy live music events, and is raising funds so he can keep doing so! Love and appreciation to anyone able to chip in 🙏🏾♥️ www.kickstarter.com/projects/pos...

#nzpol Don’t believe them when they say the wealthy will flee if we tax their wealth.

It's like Foodstuffs owning New World and Pak n Save. The illusion of choice. #nzpol

From 2018.... The age old tory myth that beneficiaries are on drugs.. just like failed bootcamps never miss a chance to punch down #nzpol
