Imagine if ACT cared as much about NZ as they care about the genocidal country. A couple of changed words makes all the difference:
Turns out Tāmaki ACT candidate James Christmas is also a lover of genocide. Hypocrite. Imagine changing Israeli or Jewish in this text to trans. Would they offer the same consideration to that community? 🤬 #nzpol

Last night Tāmaki Labour candidate, Max Harris, hosted Bernard Hickey and Barbara Edmonds. Other side of the electorate ACT candidate hosts David Seymour. Approx 50 people turned up to the auditorium to hear Seymour, 140 packed out the community centre for Max Harris. C'mon Tāmaki! #nzpol
Watching Laura McGoldrick crying while talking about the para athletes felt like disability porn. When it's her best buddy's family (the Harts) that fund political parties so they pay less tax and therefore cut disability services... this feels gross. This isn't her story to tell.
Why did I grow up eating lump free, GREY porridge in the late 70s and 80s in Aotearoa? Thankfully, it's not like that now.
ACT's Laura McClure doing her cult's induction, UK leg. From frothing over Maggie Thatcher's bronze image to meeting with Reform. 🤮 What will tomorrow bring?
Ugh ugh ugh... Laura McClure not trying to hide her ice cold heart at all with this post! The Hayek/Friedman cult finds its heroes in "Lonodn" ... she's ACT's education spokesperson BTW! #nzpol
Jordan Williams org Auckland Ratepayers Alliance uses the usual "bizarre" phrase when accused of stoking tensions to the point city leaders are facing violence. A big disappointment with the Social Cohesion survey was not recognising think tanks and neoliberalism as root cause of failing cohesion.
More security on cards after man 'took a swing' at Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown
Anybody else see this yesterday? NZHerald's attempt to explain that ACT was not announcing Henry's candidacy to cover up more of Jago's offending. But in doing so, they've revealed how long ago ACT knew he (TVNZ board member) would be joining them. Why isn't there a fuss like with Rakesh Naidoo?

Gender definition bill...FYI for those that are wondering where there submission is, I got the attached reply from the committee today. Basically, they're reviewing them before they upload, so are still uploading them.
What a perfect fit. Racist Paul Henry mocked Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit as "the dipshit woman" is standing for ACT at the next election. Imagine Paul Henry & Michael Laws in Parliament, this is what you get when you get a little horny for TOP. JUST FUCKING VOTE GREEN
I've attended 3 political events this week. What I learnt last night was the most revealing. Most crowds have been lefties and concerned about the big issues like the Conservation Bill. Last night's RW crowd asked the most fringe, individualistic questions...

At tonight's very right wing residents association meeting in the Tāmaki electorate, Labour candidate (and all round great guy) Max Harris, used a question about equity v equality to advocate for woman's pay equity. Just give him the seat already. #nzpol
Let's see what right wing spin does to the Nelson Tenths settlement. It's already a crap deal, especially for those who've waited since 1839 for redress, but this kind of intervention is going to stoke animosity and division, not improve the outcome #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/environ...

Forest & Bird helped force a major backdown on the Conservation Amendment Bill. But the job is not done yet - the “Shane Jones clause” still affects 100% of public conservation land. New Coherent episode out now. open.substack.com/pub/melanien... #ConservationAmendmentBill #ShaneJonesClause
