Do right wing voters seriously not understand that "no NEW taxes" Just means a further increase in existing taxes, fines and rates with more Tolls, Fees, Levies and costs? The word NEW is doing all the heavy lifting here 🤦🏾

Because Nationals entire campaign depends on nobody fact checking them! The cost of living has skyrocketed under them because theyre using Tolls, Levies, Fees, Charges, Fines, Costs, Cuts, removed Subsidies and existing Taxes to pay for things. No "NEW" taxes means nothing.
DONT WORRY! The government is uncomfortable with homlessness. Phew!
In todays episode of our govt is afraid of accountability: National is deliberately not giving itself enough time to answer questions from Opposition MPs in the House.
Its actually embarrassing now how shamelessly National and its MPs post lies about other parties instead of ya know just tryna earn votes by doing a good job like a normal government. Even their own supporters are going quiet.
Every accusation is a confession: Remember how this govt campaigned on stopping "indoctrination of our schools" well that same govt with multiple ministers that deny climate change are putting that denial into our schools.
This is weird, right? We're into day three of eulogies for Chris Penk. A man who's pro conversion therapy, anti bodily autonomy for women, and anti covid vaccines and mandates. He's an extremist whose views are well out of the mainstream. So what are we doing here? #nzpol
Henry Cooke: Chris Penk shouldn’t have to leave politics altogether
OPINION: Far too many of our MPs now see politics as a mid-career pit-stop, not a calling.

Pretty wild that National wants to talk about plans for the south island when they havnt even delivered the ferries we needed to connect to the north island 🤦🏾 Fun fact: The original ferry deal saw 1 arriving last Feb and the other about now. We could've already been helping the south island.
National randomly announcing a harbour bridge plan to distract everyone from questions around luxons leadership is hilarious cause theyre soo un-prepared for this press stand up 🤣🤣
I'm just gonna call it now, he's gonna come out of this blaming the media again for doing their job and then run to Mike Hosking and Dom Harvey for a soft get to know me interview.
Something that truly breaks my heart, is that the thing most damaging to the National party hasnt been the homeless people that froze to death this year, the weak stance on racism or the thousands of children theyve pushed into poverty. It was Luxon insulting buisness owners.
Headlines for young people under Health, Education and Buisness just this week. Maybe instead of paying people to have children we should focus creating a country young people want to stay in. 🤷
Oh look a policy that directly helps around 97% kiwi buisnesses instead of relying on failed trickle down economics to help them.
This guy became Prime Minister and just decided he wanted that Taylor Swift life. ✈️✈️✈️
Luxon govt update: The govt that increased homelessness to the highest its ever been is now charging the homeless for not being easier to harrass. But don't worry the first thing Luxon did when he got to power was build bigger prisons 🤦🏾
Wild move from Christopher Luxon today as he tells a room full of struggling buisnesses to "grow up"
This guy literally said his govt was going to help buisnesses if they voted for him and then yesterday he told a room full of struggling buisness owners that is was their job to help themselves and to grow up and stop waiting for the govt to help them 🤦🏾
The party that uses racism to get attention has ties to racist groups? I'm shocked. Sure would be good to have PM that was strong enough to do something about it. All well.
"Luxon isnt a buisness person, he's a corporate person. There's a big difference"
Something nobody is talking about is that out of the top 20 issues to kiwis. Only 1 party from our current govt is seen as qualified and only once by themselves. This is a clear example of why the coalition starts culture wars. Its how they trick people into voting against themselves.
Lawrence Xu-Nan has a PhD in Egyptology. That's way cooler than Winston Peters will ever be...ever.
If this doesn’t get people to stop listening to this idiot, I’m afraid they’re too far gone.
Multi-millionaire and Christopher Luxons best friend says the cost of living crisis not really a thing anymore. Phew!
Peter Navarro is on TV talking about hydroxychloroquine, which is enough to cause a PTSD flareup. I'm not sure it's smart for Trump's cronies to publicly relitigate their handling of covid.
