As the life cost of raising a child is estimated at more than $250,000 you would be forgiven for thinking this is really about keeping more people in poverty!
henry cooke@henrycooke.bsky.social · 4d agoWinston Peters wants to pay people up to $45k, tax free, to have three kids. It’s a policy with a very nativist bent that will naturally draw comparisons to the “great replacement theory” conspiracy. www.thepost.co.nz/politics/361...

So one of the promises with CRL was that Western Line wouldn’t need to close every January … but, that’s what’s happening yet again in January 2027! Less than six months after CRL opening. Every January every year West Auckland customers get no service! www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Imagine trying to be the hero for taking something out that should never have been there in the first place. Pity it takes an impending election to focus them! Which probably means it will be back by February! Preserve Aotearoa New Zealand conservation lands!
Why is ComCom not investigating why fuel prices are taking much longer to drop then they did to go up? If they had to go up instantly in February then they have to come down instantly now too - anything else is price gouging at one end of the fuel crisis or the other!
Think Elliot may have confused communism with consumerism!
