We are so fucked. 🙄 “The bill seems to have exclusion clause for the OIA [Official Information Act] so it's not clear whether people will be able to seek information and gain it, and then there are the legal challenge rights which seem to be curtailed as well." #Nzpol

How is society meant to move away from misinformation when our news agents publish every passing rumour they hear or see. 17 hours ago the @nzherald proclaimed breaking news that King Charles is VERY unwell. Today the royal family announce he’s returning to work.
@nzherald What a joke The Herald is
Before the election CigaReti was riding around in ambulances to try to show how understaffed our healthcare system was. Now as minister he has made things worse just to give tax subsidies to property speculators 1news.co.nz/2024/04/26/hos…
@actparty If you are “freaked out” by our “founding document” you probably aren’t ready to govern the country.
Sound familiar??

@TaxpayersUnion people were screaming for more immigrants after covid ( you do remember covid you know when the whole world was affected and NZ was judged as the best response) every day the opposition screamed and screamed now as the government they screaming that we have too many immigrants
@TaxpayersUnion How about the facts instead x.com/chrishipkins/s…
In 2010 the whole of the public sector made up 19.7% of NZ’s total workforce. In 2023 it made up 18.8%. Claims there has been an explosion in the public sector are pure spin to justify sacking hard working Kiwis to pay for unaffordable tax cuts. This govt has the wrong priorities
@TaxpayersUnion Nztpu you are full of lies!
@TaxpayersUnion John key government slashed public servants labour replaced because you thick cunts our population has grown by a million since 2008
@TaxpayersUnion This post was bought to you directly from the Atlas Network & proudly funded by neoliberal fascists.
Great to catch up with my friend @jacindaardern in New York about climate and conservation at the @ConservationOrg dinner. We must redouble our efforts to preserve the natural world.
@JosieMack007 Don't worry petal, the chances of Luxon being internationally respected and invited to events like this are basically zero.
It's extraordinary that Metiria was forced to resign because she needed to feed her kid & yet we still have Kuriger, Brownlee, Collins, Costello etc who've done far worse. Plus we have the ministers with so much conflict of interest it would be easy to call them corrupt.
What did the end of Metiria Turei's political career teach outgoing Green MP James Shaw? Watch his full and reflective interview on leaving parliament: youtube.com/watch?v=ysZ-Ph…
@JayCaruso It’s a dumb, offensive, ignorant sign and obviously I don’t agree with it or endorse it, and nor am I responsible for it. I could also send you a long list of genocidal statements from Israeli ministers with actual blood on their hands & ask you to respond, but I’m not as petty.

@puppies_master Did you know the last time National hit in it was to punish labour for the anti smacking legislation. It’s like people don’t like being told what to do then they vote in a bunch who trash the country, key increased GST redistributing billions from poor to rich
Can someone explain to me how we can give $41mil to another country and at the same time ask hospitals to save $80mil - how can this make any sense?
