Too right
No gong for him. He deserves only to be expelled from the country. I'm too bitter about what he did allowing Act and NZF to run roughshod over him, and thus forming this CoC. What they have done to Māori, those in poverty, and women is unforgivable.

I find it depressing (and a bit insulting) that someone would assume that most people's only reason to live is working survival jobs.

So it’s still ACAB, then?
This is outrageous and vindictive from NZ Police!
Her lawyer said,
"Instead of being heard, she was dismissed and ultimately prosecuted for speaking out and raising her concerns."
Despicable, firstly because she had few options but she persisted & imo they’re persecuting her for the temerity & secondly, the police refuse to use the legislation they’re using against her to prosecute the men who digitally harass/abuse women.
They only use it to protect systems/abusers. #nzpol

They really are utter fuckwits.
The Emperor's new crime bill was made from paper with the wonderful property of remaining invisible to everyone who was unfit for the office he held, or who was extraordinarily simple in character.

The problem with 21st century politics and government is the extreme lack of consequences for lying, sedition, and corruption.

It's, so often, clearly documented and evidenced, but nothing happens.

Even in NZ, our MPs are treated me harshly for accusing another of lying than for actually lying.

Hopkins is right, merry go round legislation is bad for the country.

Hopkins is woefully terribly wrong, appeasing destructive legislation to look conciliatory.
What's that? Oh it's just uwu little guy "opposition" leader Chris Hipkins backing dogshit National Government legislation yet again.

And of course the arseholes in the New Zealand Government are going to do the same.
The Australien Government has made an ad about the Social Media Ban for Under-16s, and it's surprisingly honest and informative.

It's weird how all the studies show that a 4-day week and UBI makes societies wealthier, more productive, and happier, but the RW govt types keep insisting on unemployment, austerity, longer hours, and shit labour rights

Is a PM opening a store a thing we do now?

He's so embarrassing. And soooooo desperate for something, anything, he can latch onto to make himself look successful.
