A large number of Democrats seem to have just discovered the Blue that they won't vote for.

Some here will hope that a victory despite this discrepancy in political funding, bodes well for NZLabour's chances at the upcoming election. The difference is that El-Sayed is a convincing candidate who has well articulated, progressive policies. Chris Hipkins is not that man #nzpol
Unfathomable
Hey folks - the 'All Knowing Yanks' are back telling us how we are evil for killing one feral cat. Get ready! Incoming! #nzpol
Newsroom doing PR for rapists. Yet another reason to unsubscribe if you haven't done so already. They're as filthy as the Murdoch press. #nzpol
Did the conversation start with - 'well let's see who can be the most racist'? #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
Luxon speaks to Peters about 'racist' tirade: 'That's a conversation between us'
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says he has had a conversation with Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters, following his tirade towards a Chinese-born MP in Parliament last week.

‘Not quite me’: David Seymour not thrilled with artist’s portrait
An Auckland artist says he was left “taken aback” after the ACT leader wrote “unsolicited criticism” on a portrait he had done of the MP.

Yet another example of why no-one should subscribe to Spinoff. Utter drivel from another appalling 'journo' luvvie.
The new UK prime minister just cut taxes on pubs. New Zealand should do the same.
Our media just printing fake press releases again. They are government tools. All of them. @kyledchurch.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/juli...
Huh, Stuff have done it too - looks like perhaps they have both just published bits of a media release without any original content? www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3610... I don’t feel great about this kind of practice especially in election year. I only know it’s incorrect because I was there.
Guess the PR hacks haven't pointed out how on brand it is for the ACT party to target children. #nzpol
In your case Susan, only after we have tarred and feathered you. #nzpol

"DISRUPTION" This is 100% Musky Crypto TechBro babble. It is 100% smash everything and grab anything of value from the rubble. That's the basis on which this government operates. It's why everything you love is being destroyed. For their profit. #nzpol
The full comments the PM made at the Rotorua event, which the PM's office say Labour are mischaracterising as a "patronising lecture". www.thepost.co.nz/politics/361...
And yet most of his supporters are either past child bearing age or are sitting in their parent's spare bedroom next to a computer and a large pile of soggy tissues.
We warned you that this was what RNZ would do in the election run up. They are the propaganda division of the National Party. But you still listen to the centrists on here that reject ANY criticism of our media. #nzpol
Henry Cooke's data centre propaganda post - Bluesky - 22 angry comments (and counting) - 12 very negative quotes - 3 likes Twitter - 6 comments - 2 quotes - 42 likes Now you see why he prefers to post there. The right wing paper he works for and his Atlas Network boss prefer it too.
So some of you are waking up to the fact that Henry Cooke is an ill-informed jerk Morning all!

RNZ have printed constant predictions of 'house price increases' for the last 2 years They did this to promote the illusion of a 'return to healthy growth' of the economy. Every property expert they spoke to was wrong. Will they stop printing their crap predictions? NO #nzpol
The Atlas Network NZMedia are playing the 'game' perfectly for the Nats They are portraying Luxon as a hero in every story and no-one on here seems to notice The left have been blindsided yet again Polls in a couple of weeks will have Nats back in the driving seat and Labour floundering #nzpol
Let’s face it - Saudi Arabia has lots of experience with bone saws.

I raised this with Helen White, one of Labour's reps on the select committee, who was unconcerned, said reducing the number of submissions was good because it means less reading and there was nothing she could do even if she wanted to. No concern at all for the people whose voices won't be heard.
What’s going on with all these gender bill submissions being rejected?
With over 40,000 public submissions made on the definition of a woman and man bill, questions remain over the number of rejections.

Trying not to share X content on here. But rules exist to be broken and this is just too funny.
Andrea Vance complaining about flea bites after laying down with these dogs for so many years? Her blind loyalty to her Atlas Network boss has consequences. NZ Journos are totally incapable of self reflection.
This entire article promotes and defends the viewpoint of loudmouth greyhound racing supporters who threaten to kill dogs. RNZ is as much a mouthpiece of the right wing manosphere as Twitter is.

And we thought Luxon was cringe. If the polls stay the same, you can bet Hipkins will do something similar. Anything but policy change.
*sits backwards on chair* hey kids, you know how we told you the last guy was just an ordinary bloke who loved pints football?! Check *this* guy out!
Oddly, child of Ted Kaczynski here has virtually no likes for all her bad takes. Boo Hoo. Poor old Ruby. Never mind.
It's not just the Seppos that have weird ideas about 'ecology' in the NZ environment. We have our own home-grown fools that think they understand biodiversity. But it's easier to decry formal education by claiming 'common sense' is a superior knowledge.
My beef with Morrissey runs all the way back to 1986 when he said this about Black artists. Nineteen Eighty Six, while the Smiths were still active. It’s not a “later phenomenon” don’t try and lie to me www.standard.co.uk/culture/musi...
if i was the founder and CEO of an advertising agency that had charity clients that might be LGBTQ friendly then I probably wouldn't run around Linkedin throwing a "like" on anti-trans outbursts from extremists like Bob McCroskie, but hey.... i guess im not a thought leader
