Deliberate voter suppression that is ancillary to gerrymandering! Where are all the polling booths that used to be in Wgtn CBD where 1000's work & live? They've all gone! Are we going to be excluded because the short hrs/poor access/long queues like the US? Outrageous!

Never have I seen the “born to rulers” rubbing it in the faces of the proles more Luxon’s expressions of their likelihood of winning is based on modelling they’ve done to see effects of voter suppressions they’ve put in place, we are already two steps behind them Every vote matters! #NZPol

This is fucking phenomenal tomfuckery from Minister Simon Watts. The $9m councils spent on following the Govt's very serious ultimatum was all on the councils apparently. Unforgivable bullshit www.nzherald.co.nz/rotorua-dail...

The Opportunistic Party if there ever was one. I don't trust them at all. They're just Gareth Morgan with lipstick.

Exactly this! In my experience they are predominantly white men. Liars, tax dodgers & thieves. In it for themselves, they just don't care. No wonder Jesus threw tables in the money lenders temple! The key moment that started our fall in AoNZ was Luxon crossing the road in a limo. Greed personified.

The government’s austerity ideology and its atrocious overreach into local body funding is creating a bleak future to which the only counter the govt has is to point at a spreadsheet and declare “look, number go down” like a toddler pleased with its finger painting. www.rnz.co.nz/news/regions...

This should bring down the national party

I'm sick of their lying! This headline on RNZ is well overdue too!

Top news indeed!

Some thoughts on Nicky Hager's "Dirty Work: The Taxpayers' Union and New Zealand's Hard Right" which was launched tonight. These thoughts are informed by a research project we did earlier this year looking at NZTU discourses which involved analysing two years of its media releases and other outputs.

I've just re-watched Thank you for Smoking today. Dirty work indeed!

Well shit and that was the EU being told no Saudi oil. So how long until Korea and Singapore get told NO Saudi oil which is where NZ gets its refined fuel from? 👇

If Nicola Willis was going to break up the duopoly she could have done so in the last three years. She lies about pretty much everything #NZPol

Where we're at now. 'Let them eat...nothing': "An analysis of the documents showed the ministry increasingly used the reason over time, declining applications on the basis food was non-essential on more than 8000 occasions." www.1news.co.nz/2026/09/07/m...

Good morning Wellington! That was quite a wobble.

'The jury is still out on fair pay' I swear I can't be dealing with this shit

This shit is just sandpit politics & it's disrespecting the public embarrassingly www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

“Repeated, severe respiratory infections can lead to permanent, irreversible lung damage and chronic respiratory diseases,” the report said... Daycare bugs: ‘Germ factories or immune boot camps?’ www.rnz.co.nz/life/wellbei...

Labour is too scared to give National any potential attack option over taxes, as if the whole election hinges around who will cut or not increase taxes. Nevermind the fact that National just attacks Labour over potential coalition tax policies anyway.

Schrödinger’s cycle lanes, so busy it’s too difficult to cross the road and at the same time a huge waste of money because no one ever uses them

Now, that's what I call journalism! Just pure newshound energy, 29 seconds of the facts and nothing but the facts. Nice work by Glenn McConnell. 🎬 👏 Maybe the *slightest* hint of an editorialising eye-roll at the end, but entirely understandable in the circumstances. www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361...
