Simeon Brown refuses to compel Health NZ to release health privatisation cost numbers as he continues to fearmonger about debt and rewrite history Figures show nearly 50% of the health budget, and 80% of all new health spending has gone to CORPORATE and private healthcare #NZPOL

It's funny how every Net Personal Wealth graph since Trickle Down Economics was invented looks like this. 🤔

🤣🤣 Simeon brown initiated a hiring freeze that lead to the understaffing and collapse of our healthsystem, since then hes been hiding from healthcare workers and so this is his attempt at distracting people. Its not working. 54 nurses. Thats all he and luxon delivered.

Early Bird post out for paying subscribers to @The Kākā. The RBNZ is about to bite back at the PM’s unwise decision to take the credit last year and early this year for lower interest rates. #nzpol thekaka.substack.com/p/early-bird...

Despite the fact that we call him the “world’s greatest detective,” Batman doesn’t really tend to do that a lot. But I did write an article once highlighting some stories which fall into this milieu: www.dc.com/blog/2025-09...

I am sure Luxon is keeping up with the world events 👀 #nzpol www.scworld.com/brief/sweden...

80 cents of every new dollar in #NZ public #health funding over the last two years was captured by private providers. Public funding is building private capacity. Wonderfully captured by here by @Slanecartoons, bravo. Check out our new report at publicfuturesaotearoa.nz www.publicfuturesaotearoa.nz

Image Comics is well-known for not paying page rates. Creators bring the work, retain ownership, and get the lions share of any profits. But Image has also quietly offered advances to some creators since at least 2008. (1/5)

The worst conservative governments aren't running conservative governments at all. They're *ungoverning* to liberate big business from democratically accountable social & environmental standards so they can realise their true extractive, exploitative potential. Spun as "cost savings". #nzpol

Simeon failed the maxim of NEVER mention the opposition by name You can also see Simeon is the product of fundamentalist brain washing and without the capability of independent thought nor constructive critique

Ten years ago Gerard Peters (allegedly) scammed millions. Seven years ago he fled the country. Six years ago I got onto the case and pressed the SFO to investigate. Four years ago he got charged. This week he finally stepped onto NZ soil and into handcuffs. www.nzherald.co.nz/business/ger...

“How do I take this premise to make this person read a good comic”

I apologise to Opportunity. The below should read Citizens Assembly format, not referendum. My apologies but stand by my other comments - year is 2040 "So Qiulae Wong and TOP would look to bring Te Tiriti to a citizens' assembly with a deadline, ultimately it's David Seymour's wet dream #NZPOL"

220,000 to 290,000 and that includes a Stat day for Day 1 of 2026 advance voting Either a lot of people despise NACT1 or we have a metric fuckton of people who love getting their feet and groin blasted off just to own the libs by voting NACT1

He implies the Manawanui sinking was the result of DEI, and appointments should be 'merit based'. So what are we to take from this, Mark? Women are inherently without merit?

Gee, I hope no-one planning to travel this Xmas, or buy anything from overseas. Inflation expected to hit 4.4%, NZD slumps one full cent, as RBNZ holds OCR stedy by a vote of 4 to 3 #NewZealand #kiwi

Next National party leader rules out Opportunity? #NzPol
