Direct accountability of senior individual corporate officers is one of the most important post-Pike reforms in our Health & Safety laws. Worksafe has been taking increasing action over past 3 years. This accountability is now under threat as the government threatens to gut HSWA.

I've been told that the break fee for cancelling the *fixed price* Cook Strait ferries could be as high as $200million. We pay this, get worse ferries, at a higher cost, & several years later while the old ferries break down increasingly. The financial wizardry of Willis & Brown.

@chrisluxonmp yesterday when speaking about NZ you said “We’ve been going down the wrong pathway, what we are doing is not working, other countries are leaving us behind, we need to get our show on the road” The stats paint a different picture, why are you lying?

Biden’s greatest triumph might be his willingness to pursue full employment over the screams of employers and the wealthy. He’s been rewarded with robust wage growth - but punished by many progressives, who immediately decided flat nominal prices were the greatest priority.
@whstancil Progressives fought for a generation to get full employment prioritized over inflation control, and these supposed leftists immediately try to undermine that once we succeed! It's maddening!
