What in the actual feck?

HOW IS THIS OK????

$500 MILLION STOLEN FROM TE WHATU ORA!!!

#NZPol
Wait. What? Why isn't there widespread reporting and public outrage about this?! #nzpol
As Craig Renney revealed to a shocked Dr Gary Payinda, Te Whatu Ora underspent its wages budget by $500m which has been signed off by Willis & returned to general coffers. Let that sink in. The money was there, but they deliberately underspent. On orders?

Outstanding article from Dame Anne - why is this govt removing even more democratic participatory opportunities for NZers? Who gave them THAT mandate?

Coalition Govt ministers insist their reform of regional councils is 'not a power grab' - but all the evidence suggests the opposite, to democracy's detriment

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

And #NZGreen’s #WealthTax - where 91% of NZers pay LESS tax, & we get free GPs, Dentists & childcare as well as good pay, jobs, public services; clean environment & water, & climate action. It’s very similar to Australia’s #nzpol www.greens.org.nz/green_budget...

If a business told u they could charge u(for e.g) $30/wk & that would pay for all ur kids' education through to uni, plus daycare, ur healthcare, ur dental care, plus other benefits. Wouldn't u say that was a good deal?
So why's it a bad deal if the govt do it?

Why can't we have public service supermarkets; fuel; public transport; fully funded healthcare; a BANK just a few of the things that a people-centric society should have. Why should investors make a profit from the BASIC needs of people?

This is absolutely disgusting. Am I surprised? Not in the fucking slightest.
Fossil fuel companies were given confidential drafts of legislation during their (successful) two-year campaign to weaken oil and gas regulation and overturn the offshore exploration ban - new reporting from me via the OIA

I’ve never liked a National Government or National led Coalition government but I can’t remember a time when they completely disregarded human rights and human decency, thanks to Act & NZ first. Every day a new horror. Every day dragged back decades

Let's be clear: this is not a 'scandalette'. This is a Minister of the Crown taking $27m allocated for one vote (housing) and spending it on another IN HIS OWN ELECTORATE. Amazing how Tory reporters can minimise this when it suits them.

This government has done some absolutely horrendous shit but this - denial of essential health care for trans youth - is unforgivable. Pure evil.
Zero surprises that the brainless transphobic health minister in NZ ignored all expert advice and evidence and banned puberty blockers for trans youth. Literal blood on his hands.

One of the few good things about living in New Zealand is that you can look at the Labour Party and if you are like “wow I’m way more progressive than/left of them”, then you simply don’t have to give your party vote to them and move on with your life guilt free and vote for Greens 🤷🏽‍♀️
