This stinks more than a soggy gumboot , King's execs get 527k which is what some other charities run on per year if they haven't been cut altogether by this cretinus gov..

Of course, Sean has friends in high places, so it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

Winston is being pretty dramatic here though, given the BSA hasn't even considered the actual complaint yet, let alone done any stasi-style censorship.

Auckland’s once paper of record, the Herald, senior local affairs reporter wrote 0 articles on the race, even taking an overseas holiday as the campaign reached its peak. ‘No-one cares about city politics’ no doubt is the excuse, well no one can if all they are feed is imported gossip, for clicks.

Of course he would say that. Peters launched his last election campaign on Reality Check Radio, his political career depends on the ability for online platforms to spread disinfo without any accountability to the public

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

#BHN David Seymour this morning commenting on someone who used to be associated with the Te Pati Maori that his actions show…

“the true soul of Te Pati Maori”

So, if those are HIS standards, the true soul of ACT can be seen in child sexual criminal, Tim Jago

Fair?

he's managed to fail upwards into a ceasefire deal against the utter incoherent incompetence of the sycophants he surrounds himself with. A person with true honour and power would have stopped this year ago. Biden isn't much better he just failed upwards less.

Grid scale batteries are changing our electricity system. Excellent new visual story on batteries in FT today shows just how far this technology has evolved.

Fasten your seatbelts, this is just the beginning.
