I suspect this comes from the courts saying its illegal for police to take photos of people they have decided they want to talk to but have not arrested or charged.

I think it was mainly Maori youth who were targeted in this way.

Well, I cocked that up. This should have a heading saying that this is the body of an email I sent to Nicola Willis back in April 2024.

Government’s books show finance minister borrowing billions to keep the lights on

Treasury has revealed the state of the Government’s finances and it shows we’re borrowing just to keep the lights on.

How can this government be so shortsighted as to continue down this track when all indicators are showing it is the wrong path for these times?"

We certainly wouldn't need to borrow to "meet day-to-day costs" if you postponed the tax cuts until a time the economy is in better shape. To not do so shows the National led government is fiscally reckless.

Any household that has to borrow to cover day to day costs is in serious trouble. Surely this should be an indicator to you that your proposed tax cuts are simply unaffordable in today's economy.

Punishment for the sake of being seen to be doing something. Optics matter more than effectiveness or good legislation.

All I see is a tone deaf company making its own appalling reputation more widely known. What do they expect to get out of it?

$400-450 /mth + a firewood bill. Only 3 of us but a large house with 2 hot water cylinders. That's keeping about 2 bedrooms and living area warm for periods of time. Fire is good for living area but it has to be warmed with heaters first. Also have a pool but don't run it in winter. Too expensive.

Traumatised Palestinians are required to form a perfect pacifist government. Genocide may continue until they do this. They must perfectly mimic western democracy, minus the power and threats, or the murder continues. Also, if they do gather anywhere to do this, they'll be killed.

Say NZ gov.

The Post denounces National's plans to strip 55,000 people of their votes as anti-democratic. Then they hide this democratic message behind a paywall.

So: fuck the paywall, here it is archive.ph/tdO56

Popular Wellington Cafe is not prepared to pay market rates for workers. Instead it would prefer to import and exploit foreign workers.
