Hard to keep up with the number of times he's been plucking the magic money tree for his own comfort. Wonder if the flights coincided with the public getting to know him better and not liking what they saw. #NZPol www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

I'm unemployed right now. They said "survive 'til 25" and now they just crossing fingers and hoping? Get me one of these high paying jobs with a corner office where I can prognosticate with zero consequence and go "whoopsie, didn't work out as I expected. Oh well, onto my next prediction!"

#nzpol Gull watch 7.32 am, 4th August. Diesel unchanged, 91 and 95 edge up one cent. Never mind "National has a long-term term plan" and we just should be adults about it all. (Difficult when there's a toddler in charge in America).🙄
Homes.co.nz had our place valued at over $1.4m during the covid peak and now hovering around $800k (well below what we paid over 7 years ago). Not complaining given our recent Tiaki Wai bill.
An entire post cab presser that concentrated on the most important issues facing Kiwis today. #NZPol
Jfc this is grim. Mind you, the previous history curriculum was only brought in in 2023. This is all entirely unnecessary and driven by people who are butthurt about the idea of NZ kids learning NZ history 😒

RNZ News Feeds@rnzrss.bsky.social · 3d agoWatch: PM Christopher Luxon apologises for 'parent-child mentality' comments
Luxon 2 weeks ago: "Fletcher cement bailout needed for national resilience." Luxon last week: "...I wonder what the government thinks and I wonder what they're doing to help me for my business? Can I get some grant money to do something?..." #NZPol
RNZ just now fading out the Luxon waffle to go to news. 😅 Nothing and nobody gets in the way of the pips! #NZPol
AND ALSO what do we do in a dry year? When you see a power shortage coming months away, but do you just let the data centres keep pumping while you ask the public to turn off the heater? Do you pay them millions to stop? Boy there'd be political hell to pay for whoever signed that off.

Survivors of abuse in care hand-delivered flowers to Parliament. The flowers were picked from the grounds of hospitals and care residences that were sites of abuse, and marked 2 years since the damning findings of the Royal Commission of Inquiry. My #cartoon today #NZpol #AbuseInCare #ChildWelfare
Sport is cool and all but 1News headlining the Comm games vs Luxon telling Rotorua small businesses they are "quite negative" and should be "smacking it" and to "act like adults" while his FM tells other MPs to "go back to the country they came from" is ... a choice. #NZPol
