  1. CW: NZ cooker news - Act candidate resigns

    In cooker news, George Ngatai has resigned from ACT after being selected as a candidate only last month.

    It turns out old George was was originally told he wasn't fit for NZFirst "due to his connections to Destiny Church." So he began hawking himself around various parties including Act and Opportunity looking for a new political home.

    Then somehow he was accepted into NZFirst before his infidelities were exposed and now he's out on his ear.

    It's tough being a professional cooker.

  2. For those failing to recognise the threat the #ACTParty poses to #NZPol democracy, #TeTiritioWaitangi and #Aotearoa #NewZealand sovereignty this brief overview of the #AtlasNetwork spells out precisely what is behind every action and policy the Act Party champion.

  3. Have we reached the point where the #NZPol Act Party should be considered an enemy to the people of #Aotearoa #NewZealand and an existential threat to humanity and the planet?

  6. #NZPol NZ political reporters are getting tired of this shit, finally catching up with the rest of us.

  7. Here's a cool map tool for you political / data nerds out there.

  9. David Seymour: "Well, I can't be responsible for your feelings Moana..."

    Also David just seconds later: "...Would you want that? People being feeling fearful, feeling like they're being indoctrinated against their will?"

    🙄 So are feelings valid or not?!? You forked-tongue sock puppet!

  10. Joel McManus strikes a serious tone about the $34/yr rates saving, the rates limit will produce, at great cost in the future. Plus the cost of CoCs demands on councils that added to rates rises.

    As usual TPU has its grubby little hands in making undemocratic moves on councils too.

    National should just admit it ...

    Tax is supposedly going to be the defining issue of the election, so make sure you know what you're talking about.

  12. Labour on Monday: Better starts now.

    National: We've got an idea so bad even the yahoos and numpties we're allied with hate it.

    Labour on Tuesday: We'll vote for it. Better can wait.

  13. Luxon says people under 18 are exposed to way too many fake AI videos full of lies produced by the National party as attack ads.

    #NZpol

  14. It is very funny that Luxon refused to take any portfolios and made Goldsmith have eleven of them. You couldn't take a single one off his hands? #nzpol

  15. Why doLabour keep opening the ACME boxes delivered from National? #NZPol

  16. The Ban of under 16's will require YOU to provide ID for all your social media.

    It isn't about protecting young people it's about YOU

  17. Luxon's concern about the online manipulation of young people is yet another example of projection from the most easily manipulated Prime Minister this country has ever had.
    Let's not forget, too, how much his own party machine is flooding the NZ internet with bullshit and AI slop.
