With 98.7% of submissions OPPOSING this bill, it is beyond belief that this wanker heavy coalition are forcing it through anyway. 🤨 Yes Labour absolutely needs to commit to repealing it on day one! #nzpol #OneTermGovernment #Aotearoa #NewZealand

As one of the orgs that was privileged enough to be able to present an oral submission on the RSB to we are about to issue an emergency press release saying the opposition leaders must issue a joint statement saying they will repeal the law should the bill pass.

PPTA - Heading: “Teachers to strike!”

underneath: “PPTA members in Secondary and Area schools have voted to take strike action in Term 4 in response to collective agreement negotiations.” On the right side a picture of a teacher holding a banner, “standing up today, so they can stand tall tomorrow”

I would have preferred Marie Laufiso. Not quite sure about Sophie but at least she has council experience.

Big oil destroys our planet, corrupts politicians, starts wars, destabilizes governments, halts progress, and never benefits the people. It is a finite resource and has killed enough fucken people. Another pipeline is as stupid as voting for someone who thinks chemtrails are chemicals from the US.

Emergency vehicles are a great way to remove ICE, it turns out.

☁ JDSBoston ☁ @jdsboston.me · Sep 8

Best thing I have seen on Instagram in two week in Ball, CA. Here, in Socal, they ran the whole ICE convoy out of town with a fire truck. ICE had to back up their trucks.

Watch the community CELEBRATE. 🎉✊

Please show Lubna and Nasser some love!

Lubna 🍉 @lu--02.bsky.social · 6h

Why did you stop supporting us?
Why are you leaving little Nasser sick and hungry? 💔
He deserves warmth and food , not more suffering.
Even with the ceasefire, our pain didn’t end.
Please, don’t turn your backs on us.
Your support can save Nasser’s life. ❤️‍🩹

Ms. Rachel calls out Barack Obama's statement on Gaza, highlighting how referring to 'Israeli families' while calling Palestinians 'the people of Gaza' strips them of their humanity. 'Palestinians have families, too,' she wrote.

Do you have a soothing phrase or prayer you can repeat to yourself. You are human, your life matters.

Marina Corino Machado and Charlie Kirk show you can openly be a far-right pro-Trump extremist and still be celebrated by liberals for "doing politics the right way"

I feel really uncomfortable posting here while thousands are being discriminated against here on a daily basis.
So please help fight this normalisation of awfulness by singing and sharing this petition and protecting the accounts of our Palestinian friends.
