My mother survived walking through Hiroshima the day after as a 13 year old, so I have a fair idea of what a nuclear holocaust looks and feels like

I do remember when Judith Collins leaked the name and details of a public servant to the right wing attack blogger Cameron Slater and then the public servant received personal attacks and death threats. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
Key, English distance themselves from Collins
Prime Minister John Key and deputy Bill English are distancing themselves from Justice Minister Judith Collins' actions in passing a public servant's information to a blogger.

Questions mount after MethaneSat embarrassment
The Auditor-General is considering a closer look at MBIE’s $29m investment in the failed satellite, while its US backers are unsure if insurance money will fund a replacement.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

The #Aurora Australis went coronal (directly overhead), extremely rare at 45°S, but also strangely the 3rd coronal event I've been in the past 2 years here in New Zealand during this solar cycle.

My son started at a decile 3 school. Originally kids could either wear the branded option or a plain one in same colour (navy bottoms, yellow polo) which we could buy from Warehouse/Kmart nice and cheap. Then they changed it and kids HAD to wear the new one. Had a one year transition I think. Shitty

I volunteered at a uniform bank, schools know parents/families can’t afford uniforms but won’t let kids attend until they have one. So many kids start late. Some schools didn’t like the uniform bank because it meant less money for them. It’s a disgrace penalising kids in low income families.

School uniforms which cost a ransom brand-new are solely a marketing tool for schools. Sure you can find secondhand but the items are usually well-worn & still 💵💵💵.
If they insist, schools could adopt a colour dress code without the need for a fucking expensive logo embroidered on every item

School uniforms are meant to be the great leveller, but as the cost of living crunch bites increasing numbers of Kiwi parents are crying foul at the cost of having to kit out their kids.
