So ... the government just forced us all to have referendums on *existing* Māori wards because Local Communities Deserve Choice, but now they're unilaterally abolishing our regional councils because they don't like the Choices we made?

1st race done, lots of action but not in a good way, very frustrating, lots of heart break. Feel so sorry for Larsen, great results for Nobles and Robertson. The Chambers/Palmowski incident was esp annoying, shades of Montreal, better not pull that shit tomorrow!

Haha hell yeah! Another pole for Chloe 'Qualifying Queen' Chambers with team mate Palmowski in P2. Now if we could not have a repeat of what happened in Montreal that'd be great...
Excellent P3 for Larsen and good results for Felbermayr (7) and Ferreira (9).

Congrats to Lisa for securing a seat, not surprise given how well she drove as a Wild Card entry.
Although not a big deal in the grand scheme of things I'm wondering why she won't be driving in the colours of an F1 team?

The #Uber loss in the Supreme Court “highlights a grey area in the law”, says Brooke Van Velden.
It’s been through 3 courts. The judges were unanimous. There’s nothing grey about it. The law is black & white. WORKERS HAVE RIGHTS! That’s the real “problem” this anti-worker govt wants to “fix” #nzpol

SST describing landlords as an *industry*.
Soooo what do landlords produce? Nothing. They produce nothing. They do not convert labour or goods to something else and add value.
They are nothing more than middlemen who inflate the cost of housing and skim yields from a human need.
