I made the mistake of listening to #RNZ Midday Report today.
The first story was David Seymour saying he was determined to end the allocation of spaces at #NZ Medical Schools for Māori and Polynesian medical students as these, according to Seymour, were giving an advantage to students due to their race. He managed to get a study done into the practice of increasing the number of Māori and Polynesian doctors to serve their communities under the coalition agreement but didn’t agree with its findings which support the practice.
He disagreed that a similar approach to offering places at medical school for rural students was the same thing as apparently it is not based on ethnicity.
The next story was David Seymour supporting MDMA treatment for victims of PTSD. I have no idea what the story after that was as I had switched off my radio by then. #NZPol

Another grilling for Quilae Wong and the Opportunity, this time from Mihingarangi Forbes;
A good interview for those who question whether Opportunity can really be described as "progressive".

"Coalition partners warn voters off The Opportunity Party" - according to #RNZ. No surprise to me: #TOP has enough in common with #Labour and #Green to support them with a potential "confidence and supply agreement" (while agreeing to disagree on some policies - the sort of arrangement #NZ had a while ago) if it cracks the 5% #votes barrier leaving the #CoC well under 50%.

Hintergrund | RNZ: Die Burschenschaft Normannia ist zurück
Nach dem antisemitischen Übergriff vor sechs Jahren war sie in "Cimbria" umbenannt worden. Drei Monate nachdem das Urteil rechtskräftig wurde, tauchte sie wieder unter altem Namen auf.Die Burschenschaft Normannia ist zurück – jedenfalls tritt sie auf ihrer Internetseite wieder unter ihrem alten Namen auf. Am Dienstag berichtete die Heidelberger Studierendenzeitung "ruprecht" über die neue Entwicklung der alten Burschenschaft, etwa von einem Instagram-Account, der zwar wenig Inhalt hat, aber bereits seit Juni 2025 unter dem Namen "normannia1890" existiert. Unter den knapp 200 Followern befinden sich überwiegend andere Burschenschaften, aber auch mehrere AfD-Politiker und ein Account mit dem Namen "rechteschueler"... (weiter)

Meiner Meinung nach muss man die Aussage 'Betreiber Günter Hölzer nennt Personalmangel als Hauptgrund' mal auf der Zunge zergehen lassen. Vor allen da es an sich genug arbeitswillige Menschen gibt, die man eben nur entsprechend Aus- und Weiterbilden müsste. Allerdings sollte das eben auch nicht den Blick darauf verstellen das die Arbeitsbedingungen und das Gehalt im Einzelhandel eben nicht gerade das Gelbe vom Ei sind. Sprich man sollte sich evtl. zusätzlich zu dem oben genannten überlegen dort etwas zu verbessern um die Arbeit attraktiver zu gestalten. Außerdem ist da wohl auch noch ein gewisser Spielraum in Sachen Automatisierung. Nein nicht um Arbeitskräfte einzusparen, sondern um sie zu entlasten.
Betreiber Günter Hölzer nennt Personalmangel als Hauptgrund. Der Bürgermeister ist zuversichtlich, dass ein neuer Betreiber gefunden wird... (weiter) (Paywall)

Maybe we need a long term decision-making process for #infrastructure spending that isn't hostage to the shifting political winds?
What if any capital spending projected to span multiple governments needed a supermajority in Parliament? Or to pass a referendum at an election? Either way, politicians would be forced to take a nonpartisan, long term approach to planning, building and maintaining infrastructure.

David Seymour's ‘whole of society’ plan for tipping millions of dollars more in to Pharmac - and Big Pharma
Sounds like Embrace Extend Extinguish to me

"The five things that you really need in order to grow mass amounts of foods [are], you need capital to pay for the entire production cycle; you need phosphates; nitrogen and potash to fertilise the crops.
Those only come from a few places. And you need a huge amount of petroleum for the fuel, and to bulwark the other additives, things like pesticides."

Further to that:> "Google did not respond to a request for an interview."
By the way, when is #rnz.co.nz going to remove the Amazon tracker on their pages?
