Sounds cool, but I can guarantee some mobster would come and get it back one way or the other. I’d rather reach some agreement with Police to donate the money to the Drug Foundation or something similar. And do that very publicly. And then move house.

This joke doesn’t work, aussies don’t call it a check, they call it a bill.

2045: We are now in receivership as the impact of the Climate Wars and collapse of the global food supply means we can no longer fly. Wellington airport is 2 feet underwater anyway.

Should be the end of his political career. It won’t be though.

Not sure I believe these store owners. Feels a bit like they’re just putting the boot in on a perceived enemy.

“Power imbalance”, lmao. She’s in your store, on your property, you can just trespass her if you want. What a joke.

Yeah this was highlighted at the Ōtautahi rally.

The US military alone emits more CO2 than most countries. War and genocide are bad for the climate, as well as for humanity.

Will Appleby from SAFE pointed out that live animal exports are not only cruel, but they contribute to global carbon emissions.

Rolling back oil and gas bans is going to increase emissions, and those sources won’t even be online for another 10 years. The fast-track proposal is about silencing the majority that don’t want more oil and gas exploration.

All of these issues intersect in some way, and all of them need to be addressed.

I thought the messaging was pretty clear to be honest.

Prosecute this as the hate crime that it is.

Poor old Mr Luxon can’t handle living in a house that is at about the same standard as the thousands of slumlord rentals on the market. What a surprise. Can we expect his government to improve rental conditions, or is everyone else also expected to go live in their mortgage-free apartment instead?

 

Problem solved.

I think as a list MP, if she resigns then someone else from the list replaces her. Pretty shitty behaviour but obviously there is a complete lack of information on what actually happened.

They would be unable to buy cigarettes, there would be no law against smoking them. That’s an important difference.

So how would you propose we end the sale of tobacco?

 

National’s unaffordable tax cuts to be funded by… (checks notes) …giving more people lung cancer.

Personally, I don't use it, because I've heard from some Jewish people I know that they find it offensive or alienating. But for me I'm not bothered with pro-Palestinian activists using it either.

 

What we’re seeing is an increase in the number of ways that people can influence electoral outcomes, and the formation of public opinion, free from public scrutiny. [...] The label I would put on all this stuff is privatisation of democracy.

Dirty politics 2.0

 
 

This is why we need 3-waters reform. The ones who oppose this (National/Act voters included here) are the ones directly responsible for the vertical climb in local and regional rates we can expect over the coming years.
