Highlight for my year was appearing on the "Bays of our Lives" podcast!
@yvonnelorkin.bsky.social & Daniel Brennan at Dan's Decibel Wines in Hastings' CBD
16 episodes to date talking to Hawke's Bay locals (& some visitors)
My fav is probably Darryl "DLT" Thomson

Through pure people power - with workers, faith, and community uniting - the Govt has decided to keep the Living Wage in its procurement guidelines for contracted cleaners, catering workers, and security guards.

Special mention to the many workers who stood up and organised for this win. #NZpol

Just to clarify my position. Ryan Bridges must be sacked.

"here's a chick who..."

A fucking woman you Hosking wannabe amateur misogynist hack.

The whole interview was a disgrace, but even teenagers know this isn't how you speak these days if you want to be respected.

18 & 19 year olds with no income support should “just go where the jobs are” said the Prime Minister who famously had his limo deliver him across the road.

“Good luck with the train-hopping, you plucky young hobos,” he added, suggesting hedge-&-ditch as an affordable alternative to bed-&-breakfast.
Watch: Christopher Luxon defends cuts to benefits for youth
The prime minister says businesses are 'crying out for young people' as advocates decry the changes as a punishment.

The image shows two photos of a curly-haired kitten, resembling a sheep. Below the photos is a humorous conversation questioning whether the animal is a cat or a sheep. It jokingly suggests names like "shat" and "shitten."

RNZ almost never publishes "political opinions" but today they & Stuff/The Post published one defending Nicola Willis's handling of the economy.

The author is Dennis Wesselbaum - from lobby group NZ Initiative, where Luxon/Willis reportedly get economic policies from

RNZ is shot #nzpol #kiwi

It is completely unconscionable to require job losses for the economy to function (supposedly) and then to blame them for their own unemployment that they DID NOT CHOOSE.

Did you get water from a tap? That’s pipes. Council.

Did you drive on a road? Council.

Did you use a pedestrian crossing? Council.

Did you go on a bus? Again, council.

Luxon is the kind of man who claims every entitlement he qualifies for whether he needs it or not.

Luxon is the kind of man that takes benefit entitlements away from 18 and 19 year olds, saying that "the world doesn't owe them a living."

Luxon has created an economy where they can't find jobs.

So Collins wants New Zealand to become an international arms dealer.
My kiwisaver fund explicitly excludes weapons because they're incompatible with ethical fund management, but here's Judith Collins gleefully announcing our entry into this appalling trade. WT actual F.
