  7. The NZ government has rejected a ban on the public sale of fireworks. This decision defies public opinion and lacks common sense.

  9. Simeon Brown has done it again and appointed another Free Speech Union boofhead to the Medical Council. This time it's Roderick Mulgan, who intends to remain a board member of the FSU.

    With four new appointments from Brown this week, National's takeover of the Medical Council must be almost complete.

    Until recently, the Atlas Network has primarily been connected to ACT. We're learning how its NZ affiliates have become entwined with the National Party.

    As an aside, Christopher Luxon's three financial advisors all have links to the Atlas Network.

  11. #UN Special Rapporteur #FrancescaAlbanese exposes the intense pressure, threats, and "mafia-style" tactics used against #ICC Chief Prosecutor #KarimKhan following the move to issue arrest warrants for #Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu.

    Imo, any country who's govt is supporting the #USPol criminals and state of #Israel threats against the #ICC and rules based order needs to suffer legal consequences for their failure to uphold international law and protect their citizens from corrupt lawfare.

    I know in my own country the #NZPol government has failed in its obligations to uphold the Geneva Convention on #Genocide, the #Nuremberg Tribunal's ruling on what constitutes a #WarCrime that being the Crime of Aggression.

    Sadly, it seems #Aotearoa #NewZealand is not the only western country failing to uphold the international rules based order which without many innocent humans face imprisonment and death.

    As if the #ClimateEmergency resulting from a failure of global governments to address #ClimateChange is not a big enough existential threat our complicit politicians are collectively damning us all to hell on earth.

  13. Yeah, but you'll overlook it without a second thought if you need him in order to be in government again, which you definitely will, won't you? #nzpol

    Meanwhile #Europe and #Canada battles fire storms and an extreme #ClimateEmergency as a direct result of #ClimateChange

    This #NZPol Coalition of Corruption should be on trial for #Ecocide along with every complicit #NZMedia organisation that falls to inform the public of the consequences of this corrupt government’s policies.

  18. I wanna shake the head of an idiot who doesn't think taxes should be raised, while complaining the govt doesn't do enough.

    I'm not sure why, I know I'll just get "Can Not Answer Now" as a response.

    I took note of a largely overlooked fact in David Seymour’s recent announcement regarding increasing funding for Pharmac.

    The point that was largely ignored was he didn’t say increasing funding for medicines but increasing the “proportion” of health funding that went to pharmaceuticals which actually means a decrease in funding for public health services.

  24. "The government is being sensible by not confirming or denying spying in Russia, a former defence minister says."

    F off the correct response SHOULD be "we don't spy on any country" (which unfortunately is a lie)

    We are meant to be a democracy, we SHOULD KNOW what our Govt is doing.

  27. You can't manage what you don't measure, but what if your management strategy is to deliberately mismeasure?

    Chloe on the methane forecast debacle:

    “You have a Government come, shred climate action, especially in the methane emissions space and then all of a sudden we’ve had a changing of the modelling which is supposed to lead us to the conclusion that, ‘Don’t worry, there’s nothing to see here, everything is all good’. It can only really lead one to the conclusion that politicians have put their fingers on the scale.”

  31. Simeon Brown is boasting that the Luxon government has slashed the cost of consultants; I would like to see these figures adjusted to reflect the obscene use of AI tools in government and parliamentary services. Because we'd see that's a shit ton of money - for very poor outcomes

  34. 'However, he did rule out some of the party’s policies, saying Labour has been “very clear” that it does not support a land tax or a wealth tax.'

    Given he has no path to power without the support of at least one, if not two, parties that are demanding them, he's going to be *really* disappointed come the 8th of November. #nzpol
