This makes me so mad #NationalPartyOfLies
Yesterday during a discussion of The Tell Tale Heart, one of my students pointed out there were no gendered pronouns for the protagonist and what if it was a female, and they all started talking about how much it changes the story and it was FASCINATING
No one in NZ wants a small tax cut that robs poorest in our nation? Where’d the Team of 5 million go? It was never about Ardern, she just summoned it. It’s what Kiwis do to support our vulnerable So ashamed. Openly forcing Kiwis backwards #nzpol #NationalNotFitToGovern

Enough is enough. It's time Luxon stood up and said in a loud voice that both ACT and NZF stop the racism or he's out. They drop any racist policies or he's out. Make sure his and their supporters here that message. 1news.co.nz/2023/09/29/te-…

When bees get tired of flying and carrying pollen, they can fall asleep in flowers this way. Awww so cute! 😂
Labour MP reports assault to police, Te Pāti Māori candidate reports home invasion and threatening letter. This is so far beyond “passionate” debate and a “robust” election campaign. Time for people and political leaders of all stripes to get real and call this crap out.

Cutting fair pay agreements would be a disaster for public transport and other public services we are just rebuilding. It’s another evidence free policy that should never be put in place, just like policies to make housing more costly, increase emissions and make roads less safe.

Marama Davidson tonight in Chch: "For those complaining about how expensive solving climate change is, this is the cheapest it's going ever going to be again." That cost will have to be paid somewhere and by someone, and every day we wait that cost becomes more and more.
Ok, this voting from overseas is actually a pain in the arse! No wonder people don't bother, and numbers aren't high when it comes to overseas voters. 🙄 I will persist, though. Anything to keep the Nats and Seymour out.

There's apparently a Twitter account impersonating me at @marcdaaider – they've blocked me so I can't see them. If some folks could report them for impersonation that would be great!
Whoever would have guessed? It seems beneficiaries will ultimately pay the costs to make sure Luxon/Willis, high earners and landlords all get their promised tax cuts!! So much for caring about the cost of living for those who are 'squeezed'. This is how Luxon 'loves' strugglers.

One year ago I donated my kidney to my dad. Seeing him be able to live his life in the last year free from dialysis, being able to travel and spend time with his grandkids has made it all worth it. He and I are both healthier than we’ve ever been and just wanna say I love you Dad
The father made a bet with his little daughter saying, "I can wipe the water off the floor without you hitting me with the fork in your hand."
We can't say voters didn't know the Nats were going to push thousands of kids into poverty so they can hand billions to landlords. Or that they're being tricked. They're being pretty open about it.
Enough is enough. It's time Luxon stood up and said in a loud voice that both ACT and NZF stop the racism or he's out. They drop any racist policies or he's out. Make sure his and their supporters here that message. 1news.co.nz/2023/09/29/te-…
@antihobbes He’s a good man. I really respect Grant Robertson.
There a certain irony in releasing policy insisting beneficiaries must turn up to job interviews, while refusing to front for your own job interview with Māori media
Christopher Luxon still hasn't sat down for an interview with Mihingarangi Forbes, Moana Maniapoto, Julian Wilcox, Scotty Morrison or Miriama Kamo during this election year. He clearly doesn't see any value in Māori media.
Oh goodie. My son is due for another winz review. Yes, he still has an intellectual disability. Surprisingly it hasn’t gone away in the last 2 years. I know - I’m shocked too! 🙄🤦♀️
Voting NACT means agreeing that the most vulnerable and their children should be colder, hungrier, and more desperate. If that alone does not cause enough concern imagine the downstream costs to health, justice, education and gang increases etc. The Nats fiscal plan is madness.

Labour MP reports assault to police, Te Pāti Māori candidate reports home invasion and threatening letter. This is so far beyond “passionate” debate and a “robust” election campaign. Time for people and political leaders of all stripes to get real and call this crap out.
