This is deeply disturbing and should be the lead story in every news outlet. “Conservative party staff & activists are secretly operating a network of Facebook groups that have become a hotbed of racism, #disinformation & support for criminal damage.” theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
I think we need some clarity here. What exactly has the govt said to health orgs?
"Think Big and its aftermath are powerful examples of what can go wrong when a small group of politicians, who think they know best, deliberately curtail due process when it comes to making major decisions and instead take that power upon themselves." newsroom.co.nz/2024/04/26/gov…

1/7 Auckland Transport paid for an article in the NZ Herald about the history of Meola Road, which has just been reconstructed. But AT's piece doesn't mention that the road runs over land where war & ethnic cleansing were rehearsed in the 1860s.
Israeli forces have detained an unknown number of Palestinian children from Gaza and refused to release any information about them, indicating these are enforced disappearances. ow.ly/s1rv50Rpg4X
UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese called for “immediate and unconditional sanctions” against Israel, citing that what Israel is doing to the Palestinians is most likely “ethnic cleansing”, during a press conference in Cairo on Thursday.
@Glinner You seem to have deleted this by mistake Graham hun. Or did you realise you’d attacked someone rich enough to go to court and claim his £90k?
“What this is about is a conniving subset of people who say they care about children’s welfare but who really care about marshaling outrage toward vulnerable scapegoats.” A good read from Washington Post. washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2022…
'"I do not understand why religious extremists are allowed to threaten queer people to an extent that we have to cancel our events but if we showed up to churches every Sunday and demanded with violence and disruption that they shut down it would not be tolerated." Exactly this.
Minister is not telling whole truth here. Appraisal by panel is not same, because fast-track bill directs panel to give predominant weight to facilitating “delivery of infrastructure and development projects” etc, ahead of environment and other matters. nzherald.co.nz/nz/fast-track-…
I'm all for AT doing comms explaining Meola Road, but the way this typo persists in them is puzzling.
Quite a funny dynamic with the fast track bill where National goes around trying to sell it as vital for climate action only to keep getting undermined by one of the deciding ministers blurting out "I am going to buzzsaw a skink"
Telling. While every suburban reply-guy shouts about how the centre of Auckland is dying because it's too hard to drive through it, what's actually killing North Wharf hospo right now is a critical interruption to walking and cycling. nzherald.co.nz/business/wynya…
