foreign minister making increasingly racist, extremist & conspiracy remarks whose party was recently shown to have structural links to neo nazis & National dont see that as a red line draw your own conclusions i guess, but i’d also appreciate it if early warning signs were taken seriously in future
henry cooke@henrycooke.bsky.social · 2d agoNicola Willis and Mark Mitchell suggested this morning that firing Winston Peters would bring down the Government. www.thepost.co.nz/politics/361...
So Luxon claims he has official advice that Data Centres won't increase energy costs but, when the Greens requested a copy of the advice via an OIA, his office says there wasn't any advice and Luxon was just repeating their talking points, then Nicola says MBIE gave her advice ....🤡 #nzpol
Luxon backpedals after office says 'official' data centre advice actually 'media talking points'
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has landed in another controversy about the OIA.

Aotearoa New Zealand's government can't even take care of the children currently living in poverty, but this out-of-touch, racist, misogynist old man wants people to have more. What happens when the 45K runs out, Winston? Have you seen the job market? #nzpolitics www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361...

NZ politics is starting to feel very American, and no New Zealander with a conscience should stand for it.
LostArcNZ@lostarcnz.bsky.social · 7d agoI would also hope the Green MP would know his place. Which is here in New Zealand, in the country that is his home.
We should march on parliament and demand Peters resignation. His behaviour and language is unacceptable and his role as foreign minister untenable #nzpol
With highly-pathogenic avian influenza now in NZ, we're taking steps to protect #kakapo and #takahe by vaccinating against the disease, following a successful trial. We're aiming for ~90 kākāpō and 100 takahē in an initial phase to protect the most valuable birds/sites. #conservation #birds
So I am assuming Luxon has ruled out having Winston as a Minister in a future government he leads. Due to racism and diplomatic concerns? Or is that type of leadership reserved just for candidates who’ve already indicated they’ve resigned? www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
