I never got that. Of course the opposition are going to be "doomsayers" about policy, that's why they bloody oppose it. If dickheads like Luxon think sprinkling random words from the dictionary into half baked insults is poetic, then it's no wonder they made English official. Sounds poetic. #nzpol

Let's not do this... #nzpol we have 5 people looking for work for every open job. And thousands looking for more hours. It never had to be this way. Let's make full employment a policy. It was only 6 years ago unemployment was 3.3%

Simeon Brown's quoted response here – that New Zealanders voted to "end Labour’s co-governed system" – is the most deranged culture-war nonsense, even by Simeon Brown standards. Is he saying the Medical Council was "co-governed" because the chair, a respected surgeon, happened to be Māori?

“About 4.6 per cent of taxpayers earned more than $162,000 in 2024, according to the most recent IRD figures” The Green Party tax policy proposals would be the equivalent to a saving of about $4850 per household. The hoopla is all about 4.6% of the population? I mean fuck me that’s pathetic #nzpol
