Just for clarity, the unemployment numbers under this government may look terrible, but keep in mind, Luxon has driven tens of thousands of Kiwis overseas as well, so its actually far worse. These numbers are just the ones that couldnt leave.

It is imperative to the future of Aotearoa that we never let ourselves nor the ministers involved forget this or any of their actions.

While this cowardly Government refuses to recognise Palestine, our Council has already signed an agreement with Ramallah and approved an investment policy that excludes Israeli companies and government bonds. Who's lamo now? #nzpol

As Luxons govt denies Palestinian statehood at The UN, he posts a selfie from a stadium that holds less than the amount of Palestinians murdered in this genocide to date. This man is disgusting.

To her credit, Nicola's incompetence has at least given the rich and the poor something they agree on.

Lets go back to when we were all just talking about Tiger King. Remember that? Thems were simpler times. We were all so happy. Apart from Carol Baskin she was pissed but still.

We've all done some crazy stuff for love, but Hannah and Brian Tamaki both getting their eyebrows tattooed on is truly wild. Like imagine looking at your partner one day like "hey ya, know what we should do today?.." insane.

Im containing my excitement because if anyone has a secret formula for anti death, itd be the wannabe dictator with billionare friends, but the fact that Trump hasn't been seen in days and his schedule this week has been wiped is just great news.

Oh FFS 🤦 Nationals using
"Downward Pressure" again.
Reminder: "Downward Pressure" on landlords was giving them a no strings attached payout of 3billion dollars only to make things worse for renters.

i-Rex ferries cancellation punchline:

This govt. needed to stump up $1.4 billion more in total to complete the i-Rex project - incl seismic upgraded ports & the 2 future proof, rail enabled hybrid ferries.

Instead they threw away well over $1 billion for 0
