Wasn’t the focus of the of the National Party election campaign to ease the cost of living for New Zealanders? And this is the result? www.rnz.co.nz/news/busines...

The Government is proposing to remove protections for drinking water in its proposed national freshwater plan. The proposals align with the demands of polluting industries over communities. www.phcc.org.nz/briefing/gov...

Literally anyone is vulnerable to Covid
This is my most confrontational post of the day: please watch Armond’s video & think on it. It isn’t at all progressive or leftist to spread disabling disease in an ongoing pandemic. There are more Armonds than you know, & folks who don’t mask are making more each day bc most spread is asymptomatic

So Libelle's problems weren't just financial: Ministry of Education officials warned about food safety failures going back to 2021 and tried to get the group it was part of excluded from the school lunch tender. They were ignored. This should be a scandal. www.thepress.co.nz/nz-news/3607...

Look. What I say to you is this. $200m subsidy for oil and gas EV uptake destroyed Industry decarbonisation binned Looking at easing ag emissions targets Collapsed ETS Climate scientists belittled Comedy NDC FTAs breached No adaptation $ But yeah, you can trust us on climate. #nzpol
Government told after election it would have to quit fossil fuel group if new exploration started
Let these passive spaces actively work for our communities eg the redwoods in rotorua. If you want to convert to carbon, then you need to contribute to Aotearoa. It will cost practically nothing but hugely beneficial 👀 @labournz.bsky.social @nzgreensglobal.bsky.social @tepaatimaori.bsky.social
What if NZ instituted this kind of tax here? Why does profit from nz based digital resources have a tax break when farmers and manufacturers pay tax here? What could we fund? 👀 @tepaatimaori.bsky.social @nzgreensglobal.bsky.social @labournz.bsky.social share.google/UO9axrXptbeA... #NZpol

#NZPoliticsNOW #IndigenousNOW #NZpol #KillTheBillNZ If adhered to, the “principles of responsible regulation” will significantly undermine government’s capacity to legislate in the public interest www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMJ3...
Ah Peter Thiel, that outstanding representation of NZ citizenship and values....
fundamentally narcissistic and backward looking. believes the world peaked roughly in the year of his birth and he has been living through a slow decline the entire time. peak transhumanism? happened roughly when he got rich and visited alcor. just absurdly blinkered
Yeah, industry can be trusted without regulation/enforcement! The good actors should be really cross that the bad actors aren't having the book thrown at them. Where's the competitive advantage in doing the right thing? #NZpol #pesticides #NZexports #foodsafety share.google/tWaGbL5oriCf...

The public will get just 30 hours to voice their views on the Regulatory Standards Bill, a fraction of the time given to other major legislation.

Still nothing today. Less fascinated now and more concerned - this is newsworthy information that demonstrates the public’s high awareness of and engagement with this Bill - can any journalists advise a reason this isn’t being reported?
I am finding this so fascinating - this is the second highest number of submissions ever on a Bill in Aotearoa and we’re just… not reporting it? Why? The number for the Treaty Principles Bill was reported immediately 🤔

Now that's an assist for the corrupt Coalition government if I ever saw one. It's Stuff right? The one owned by right wing lobbyist Sinead Boucher. The one manned by a NZ Initiative political editor & Tracy Watkins. #stuffisstuffed with apologies to any good journalists left there. #nzpol

Watched #grenfell documentary on Netflix last night. Everything that led to that disaster is what David F^(k!ng Seymour stands for. @labournz.bsky.social, @tepaatimaori.bsky.social, Greens need to telegraph that they will run finetoothed comb over *everything permitted during this 1 term govt
#NZ court system confirms that white men can get away with harming the most vulnerable bc he wants a nice Christmas away and it's inconvenient to organise proper care. If you want to break laws in NZ, 1st make sure you are a white business man or an All Black search.app/XCCBp
Of course, " let's have private corporations provide health and care services with less supervision/regulation, it'll be better for everyone.. .." Meanwhile IRL Source: Stuff search.app/Lhg9o
