We love to see it! Abortion is normal. Abortion is healthcare. The #antichoice, #antiabortion, and #antilgbtqiaplus movement in #NZ has very little support for their bad ideas. Just because the current govt shares their 💩 views doesn't mean they represent the majority of Kiwis. #nzpol #voiceforlife

Jevon McSkimming sentencing: why a public inquiry into the police should be next
An independent inquiry would go beyond operational misconduct to examine police culture and assess compliance with New Zealand’s international obligations.

This is a really significant ruling - it’s some important that commissioners, especially human rights commissioners, aren’t just installed because they align with the current regime’s political positions. Today an Aotearoa court has ruled it illegal.

We won! I won my judicial review!
![[101] I agree with the applicant that the declaration sought here would serve a real purpose in ensuring that future recommendations for the position of human rights commissioners proceed lawfully. When potential appointees for such positions occupy an important public office intended to help ensure the human rights of New Zealander’s are upheld and promoted, there is a clear and substantial public interest in having errors in their appointment publicly declared. Conclusion [102] The judicial review application is granted. [103] I make the declaration that the Decision was unlawful because: (a) (b) the Minister applied the incorrect legal test; and the Minister failed to take into account relevant considerations. [104] The issue of costs is reserved. I encourage the parties to agree on any issue of costs that might arise. If that is not possible, the applicant is to file a memorandum on costs no longer than five pages within 30 working days of the date of this judgment, with the respondent to file a memorandum in response within a further 10 working days of receipt of the applicant’s costs memorandum. The Court will then decide the costs issues.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:b7y7isv72z6ku7rtpu7zvfzy/bafkreiejxsssvwd7e3gbtjsrqinyh63jrn75ppz7t6cvqpxddb65nucel4@jpeg)

While Luxon’s taxpayer funded limo glides over the hills, transport options and accessibility for disabled NZers is further reduced. Luxon weeps with frustration as he leaves the belt way. “I needed the massive tax cut” he wails at his chauffeur. #nzpol

Women & anyone w/the ability to become pregnant have been making complex life decisions since the beginning of time. Making anyone wait any further after making an appointment for an abortion is condescending & unethical. There are no wait times in NZ #nzpol #abortion
