I know I'm feeding a fairly desperate attention-seeking exercise, but this is not dissimilar to Trump encouraging Russia to hack Hillary Clinton's emails for dirt, and equally awful. Lobby for Parliamentary Service to come under OIA ✅ Validate state-sponsored hacking of NZ ❌

Peters won’t stand for coalition partners getting ahead of the Cabinet process. It’s not the first time Peters has flexed his coalition muscle in this way. Remember Andrew Little’s 2 strikes debacle in 2018… Yet another reason you wouldn’t want to be Melissa Lee rn

Response from the Chinese embassy to NZ's attribution of state-sponsored cyber attacks on Parliament - nothing too surprising in there albeit with a strong tone

Since ministers seem to be fielding many Qs about whether we'll sanction China over its cyber attack, a reminder that we actually can't, given no autonomous sanctions law - subject of a recently released report: newsroom.co.nz/2024/03/05/exp…

Coming towards the end of an NZ trip. So thought I'd do a Kiwi cricketer book cover power ranking. Starting at 10 - Chris Cairns. Very early 2000s minimalistic, like he's not a cricketer?

Michael Joseph Savage called NZ's social security net "applied Christianity". The same might be said of Rod Oram's environmentalism. He agreed nurturing this rare planet and handing it on was a highest calling of Christians. We at @NewsroomNZ will miss you newsroom.co.nz/2024/03/20/pro…
Rod Oram, a treasured Newsroom colleague and leading business and climate commentator in NZ public life for decades, has died in Auckland from injuries suffered in a cycling accident. newsroom.co.nz/2024/03/20/pro…
Rod Oram used to diligently pass on any speaking gigs and panels he couldnt get to, to try to lift up the next batch of climate reporters. He was so generous and genuine. I'm very sad to hear he has gone.
