It's incredible to me that we had people calling for public executions of politicians during Covid, but we now have people dying in hospital corridors and carparks because of a government-engineered health system collapse and apparently none of those same people are bothered by it.

#nzpol Luxon says race is not an issue in this election. Is this how he justifies not calling out the racism of his future coalition partners, Act and NZF? Is his refusal to be interviewed by Mihi Forbes, Moana Maniapoto or Julian Wilcox an indication of his own racism?

My disabled son gets $500 a week to live on with the winter energy payment. So next week it’s back to $480. I’m unsure why he’s condemned to live in poverty and to be a punching bag but when you call out the RW they go oh no not him. Then who? Cos most of us are a month away from a benefit
