I wouldn't put too much stock in what Luke "I love Luxon" Malpass has to say. He's worked for the pro-Atlas Initiative; his political coverage is known for being very anti-left.
He's v good at his job and some of you are falling far too easily for his hook and are playing right into his spin.

![However, the brothers' Google search history in the weeks after the theft for phrases including "how to wash crypto”, “top crypto lawyers”, “wire fraud statute / wire fraud statue [sic] of limitations”, and “prison or jail worse” suggest that perhaps the brothers had some clue that their actions could be interpreted criminally, as do the brothers' own descriptions of their plan as “sus”.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:exrxvyu6bpoym6mbnctke5tn/bafkreicpwu5pjoddgp2ovmaka2kfu6d6uc7uijrld5a4hovz5qpaqlkk5u@jpeg)

Some opposition MP should put a "Regulatory Standards Act Repeal Bill" into the biscuit tin, approach the NZ First backbench MPs to sign on in support of it, and then see what happens if it gets pulled from the lottery ... NZ First didn't promise not to vote to repeal it once enacted!
Winston Peters vows to repeal Regulatory Standards Bill; David Seymour hits back
"We did our best to neutralise its adverse effects and we will campaign at the next election to repeal it," Peters told Radio Waatea.

If it goes over-budget again, then that's actually a good thing, since it'll be another opportunity to start over with an even lower budget thus saving even more money.

Willis uses the word "doolally"
My grandmother used to use that in the 1970s.
I don't use it anymore because it's a deeply colonial bullshit way of insulting someone's mental health.
Willis likely thinks it's quaint.
